Season Overview

In Season 19, the Turntables rule inverted wins and losses. This meant that the Worms’ modest 54-45 record was converted into -39 Wins, putting them easily at the top of their division. Despite this supposed victory, the Worms were plagued with bad luck in the form of Igneus Delacruz’s Incineration, a mistake resulting in being shorted a Gift, and an endless stream of players being sent Elsewhere. The team qualified for the postseason but was ultimately eliminated in the quarterfinals by the Boston Flowers.

The Worms had some success in the Election, voting to Foreshadow Muse Scantron in favor of Ephraim Ladd and to Equivalently Exchange Jacoby Podcast for Parker Meng. The team also ended their Blessing drought, making Scratch Deleuze  Cluttered and Cedric Spliff a  Subtractor.
