History Trivia / Blaseball

* SeriesHiatus: Had one for two weeks between Seasons 3 and 4, and a week-long one between Seasons 8 and 9. A month-long one began following Season 11, to give the developers time to rest and to prepare for major expansions to the game.

* PromotedFanboy: The person that plays the Anchor, Quintin Smith, was a games journalist that was part of the organization [[https://www.youtube.com/@PeopleMakeGames "People Make Games"]] that made a video about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5t8DwnDE1k Blaseball]], praising it as something unique and that brought people together. The Game Band apparently saw this and liked it enough to work with Quintin to make the official recaps which explains the Anchor's favoritism towards the Miami Dale.

* AscendedFanon: What fans had dubbed "The Grand Unslam" became canonically referred to as such. The Vibe Check and Dial Tone bat names were also created by the community before being added to the site. For that matter, in a way, ''every'' bit of "canon" besides what's explicitly on the site is ascended fanon.

* DistancedFromCurrentEvents: The Moist Talkers' catchphrase was changed from "Spray It, Don't Say It" to the fan-popular "Talk Spit, Get Hits", probably as the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic made the former seem inapproriate due to how the virus commonly spreads.

** A second hiatus started after Season 24 (at the end of July 2021), and at the time of editing has no known end date.

* AscendedGlitch: Overlapping with ThrowItIn as the developers have taken an approach of leaving the effects of glitches and unintended interactions in place unless blatantly in violation of the RuleOfFun. For example, in the Season 10 elections a glitch causing one player to inappropriately lose a powerful active item when their team received a non-conflicting armor slot item was corrected, but a glitch causing a player to be traded to two teams simultaneously was declared a TemporalParadox, giving one team Montgomery Bullock and the other [[AlternateSelf Bontgomery Mullock]], and the player's former team two players for their one.

** ScheduleSlip has since kicked in, as said "siesta" lasted for more than 4 months before finally ending on March 1st 2021.
* ShoutOut: One particularly short-lived player had the name Atlas [[Creator/JonBois Jonbois]]. Bois himself is aware of Blaseball and of the character.

The main one can be found [[https://www.blaseball.wiki/ here]], but it originates from a Wikia/Fandom wiki that can be found [[https://blaseball.fandom.com/wiki/Beginner%27s_Guide_to_Blaseball here]].
