    Who are you all following this year? Who got robbed? Who the hell is in charge of safety? They have HBO money now, the least they could do is make sure competitors don't miss the funnel entirely.

      I've had a place in my heart for the O'rangers since their 2016 MarbleLympics, after they came just shy of podium finish. The terrible showing in the Balancing section had me worried, but they pulled through in the end. My heart does go out to the Team Primary fans though.

    Friendly follow-up today: https://youtu.be/7V3TyWYcCY8 This is nice and quick and good to show new people to. At least it went over well as an introduction to Marble League.

      New person here. I'm... confused. Is this a real sport? Because it kind of looks like a parody of sports made by people who don't watch sports. If it is real, what exactly is the skill involved that they are competing in? Do each team custom-make their own marbles for each event?

      It just looks like a complete game of chance to me.

        Marble League is a competition of endurance and excellence across a variety of disciplines hosted by Jelle's Marble Runs, the official carrier of the Marble League and other affiliated events. Competitor teams are asked to test their strength, endurance, agility, coordination and teamwork in a series of events that cap off with a display of lap racing.

        As human centric sports are unavailable right now, Marble Sports are picking momentum as the new thing to see, as featured on ESPN 8, and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver which was announced as the Marble League's 2020 sponsor. There are elements of randomness, but there is in any competitive sport, the marbles give it their all, and people have gambled on less, so I think it's a valid sport.

    I think what I'm going to do in the future is post a topic for the week, and just update it for each event if nobody objects.
