@zemm

DataBaseball Season3 is just a few days away. Here's how to get started. 1) Start a team at databaseball.fun by minting some players. They cost ~$1 on Base, and each NFT represents a random player season from baseball history. We've minted about 1/3 of the historical player seasons so far! 2) Once you have a few players, go to the Team section of the app and set up your lineups and pitching roles. You can use the Auto Lineups feature there too. 3) Wait for games to start! Your team will be slotted into one of five competitive leagues based on how strong your team is (you need 15 total Player Value to play games). 4) You can brand your team, upgrade it with $DAT, trades players and collect points over the course of the season as you notch wins. The whole season takes about 2 months, so plenty of time to get your squad tuned up for the playoffs. 5) Don't forget to join /database-sports channel on FC and DM if you want to be part of the direct cast group on FC or Base App. Lets play ball.

lots of familiar faces in the first fully populated Databaseball Draft friday playoffs @kagami might actually get 3 teams in, and a very good showing by new player @mightymoss with their first team the Milwaukee Sharpshooters. The Hartford Marshals are in their third season and will be tough to beat! @aminphantom.eth and @bigtone.eth round out this group, but could actually get bumped if some of the current teams make it over the hump. Wen will @grilledonion @shrutebuck @plantsnft and others jump into the mix? databaseball.fun/draft

Databaseball.fun now has a brand new game: DataBaseball Draft Beer Leagues! Been testing it for the last few weeks and seems solid. Feel free to play. Draft beer leagues is a casual, fully off-chain draft based game. Open packs, choose your favorite players and manage your roster. Then, you will sim games against other players every 30 mins. A salary cap makes it strategic to build an optimized roster. It takes about 4 days to complete one season, and each Friday there is a playoff round. Once you have a team you like, you can keep on building it with more packs and expanded salary cap for follow on seasons. I built this to experiment with getting more people from outside web3 involved, and will see if I can market it as we start to grow. Lets see what happens! If you do own NFTs, you can sign in with your wallet and use some players in Draft Beer league play. Please take a look, draft a team and see what you think! Should work in a mini app, but you can play on a normal browser too

Impressive start by @javabu.eth 's Quarymen - notching a .500 record is not easy! The ghost teams I picked for testing are pretty tough. If anyone wants to be part of the DataBaseball draft league testing, please let me know - I could use a few more beta testers before we go live. Takes maybe 10-15 mins to set up your team.

chipping away at the new databaseball.fun draft game... did some forensics on the sim engine and there was a major flaw that has now been patched! Essentially we were swapping a key modifier that flattened out the curve of outcomes a lot. Sim engine is now 2.1 I'm running a season in the new mode to test it and looks a lot more like what you'd expect, but will continue to tune. Can only really credit the advance of GPT models over the last few months to finding this.

dang it @mrbogey88.base.eth ! Swans lose to the Terror Crocs in 7 games in the S Tier world series. The battle on the pond ends in a cloud of feathers. Congrats to the Crocs!

@zemm

The new salary / budget system continues to ship! Now, all Databaseball.fun teams have a yearly Budget set by an algorithm. You can see this in the Team -> Lineups section, and a breakdown in the Front Office of how it was computed. For Season 5, teams will need to get their active roster payroll under budget, or else their stars will be benched for ghost players at sim-time!

databaseball.fun Season 4 has been archived. I'm going to spend some time refactoring some things with the game next. Would like to see career stats maybe, think about some new gameplay elements or modes...

DataBaseball.fun is still swinging! We just finished Season 4. It was a more relaxed one as the commish got pulled into some other work and couldn't keep up with coms... but the sims are still simming and here are your Season 4 World Series winners! S Tier: Slappers @oexcess AAA: NodeWalkers @codeofcrypto AA: IHNIWID @shiiiiison.eth A: NodeSwaddlers @codeofcrypto B: The Benchwarmers @kagami Impressive season especially for the Node franchise, with two trophies... and the Slappers get their big one. Kagami's Benchwarmers get another accolade and very cool to see an underdog team IHNIWID, who won just 91 games in the regular season, take home some gold. Trophies will be distributed when I get a moment!
