FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE WARNING

Last Updated Season 14, Day 75

Decrees

Decrees are chosen by majority votes across all teams. 1 decree will pass this season.

Meal Plan

All Fans will gain 2 new temporary Snack Slots each Earlsiesta and 2 new temporary Snack slots each Latesiesta. The 4 extra Slots and the Snacks in them will be washed away after each Election.

Pot Luck

All Fans gain 3 Snack Slots permanently. Every Season, 3 Snacks in Concessions will be randomly selected to be Spoiled, earning extremely low payouts, with a small chance of a Gourmet Jackpot.

All You Can Eat

Fans will be able to freely buy and sell Snack Slots at any time. The less Snack Slots a Fan owns, the higher the payout for the Snacks in them.

All Decrees change how player Inventory is managed, by adding more item slots but having different downsides.

Wills

Will are selected for each team by raffle. Each team will draw 2 random wills. The bottom 4 teams in the league by standings will draw 3. The chosen wills are random, but wills with more votes are more likely to be selected.

Plunder

Steal a Player from the Idols board. Send a random Player from your Team back.

Due to the random nature of the target on our team, this tests the best case (swapping the Best Player on the Idol Board for a position with our worst player in that position) and the worst case (swaping the Best Player on the Idol Board for a position with our best player in that position).

Exchange

Swap a Player from a Team in the opposite Subleague with a Player from your Team.

There are 139 possible Wild League players to swap with our 12 existing players, which is too many permuations for me to list here. Instead, here's the list of the top 10 players available to choose from by star rating. For maximum impact it is recommended we swap the player with the worst batter or pitcher respectively.

Note that position does not matter for the swap, so a player that is currently batting can still be added as a pitcher and vice-versa.

Trust

Receive a mystery Benefit for one of your Teams' Players.

The Benifit here is unknown. It is likely either a stat increase or an unknown Modification.

Alternate

Call in an Alternate for a Player on your Team.

Alternates are when players stats are randomized. Below shows the change in Team Average Stars from rerolling our worst player, assuming they would be replaced with the Statistically Average player.

Rerolling Yusef Puddles

batting_change	-0.4223%
pitching_change	+0.0000%
baserunning_change	-0.9070%
defense_change	-3.1326%

Revoke

Revoke a Player from your roster.

Revoking will cause the player to change teams, potentially every season. This will cause our other players to play more often, increasing our average team performance if we chose the worst player. See below for analysis of removing our worst Batter or Pitcher.

Enrich

Pick a modification for your Team next season.

This will gives the option of choosing between

The Fourth Strike: Those with the Fourth Strike will get an extra strike in each at bat.
Shame Donor: A Team or Player who adds Unruns to a Shamed opponents' future pile.
Earlybirds: This team will Overperform in the Earlseason.
Late to the Party: This team will Overperform in the Lateseason.

Seasonal Modifications have been mixed in the past. For Fourth Strike Analysis, see the appropriate SIBR Paper. Earlybirds or Late to the Party would be roughly equivalent to a 5% boost overall.

Blessings

Jam-Packed & Glazed

Your Team will pay out double to all Fans when they trigger the Black Hole.

Headliners

Arrange your lineup in order of their Idolatry.

The exact ordering of our team by Idolatry is unknown. With sufficient team organization this could be used to improve lineup efficiency.

Soul Swap

They won't stop screaming. Randomizes your Team's 5 worst players.

This will attempt to reroll the following players, in order. Players are rerolled in order, so if a player is rerolled to be worse they will be rerolled again, as they are still the worst pitcher. For reference, the Statistical Average player has 2 batting stars and 1.5 pitching stars.
