Garages supporter here, Morse wasn't mourned by the MTs by our reckoning. Our sources tell us they were trying to get him gone anyways since he was even worse than Townsend. At least Mike had FK stats that his star rankings belied, Morse didn't even have that to make him a lovable loser. The reason we found this out is cause we asked if it would be ok to campaign for sending him to the shadows to get Mike back and they were super happy we could make something of him.

Didn't know RIV originated with the Tigers though, learn something new everyday.

Neat read. The Mills will try to tell you the thing with Thomas was not on purpose. While I hold no ill will about it*, that just isn't true. Is no shame in it, is shame in pretending.

While the party line was different, there were many at the time campaigning and calling for the last minute push, you can see them if you look. To their short-lived delight, they succeeded, and I personally salute them. It was however hilarious when their devious plan to get ahead turned out to be pointless, they sought to grab a permanent boon for their team, as you say, they got a temporary buff they wouldn't even make use of.

*Is a game, with some competitive elements, while some don't like and others pay lip service to those ideals, people and teams are free to connive for what they see as their own benefit, is A-okay in my book. Like the Spies and their PEAPOD op.

alright, I love this, this is really cool, but I wanted to bring up something I think you glossed over: The Houston Spies' Operation PEAPOD. This operation was going on through the entirety of Season 10, where the Spies campaigned to get the PODS on the leaderboard by election time so they could save one of them through the Popular by Association blessing. They kept going through with this plan even after the PODs defeat because no one knew what the defeat meant. While the Operation wasn't needed in the end, and the Lovers ended up wimdy-ed the blessing, it was cool to see the entire community come together to help the Spies out, because at election time, 10/12 PODs players are on the board. It was a cool moment in the community

This is lovely. We may say Rest in Violence, but I really hope the Hall Stars get to rest in peace.
