Hellmouth Cup
History
Atonal Lattice Theory
The
Ft. Worth Piano Tuners
operate on a computational substrate known to Golly theorists as an "atonal lattice." In a standard cellular automata game, cells update in a perfect rhythmic cascade, where generation N becomes generation N+1 all across the grid. However, the Piano Tuners, true to their nature, have a catastrophic inability to keep this rhythm. Their cells update asynchronously, firing in random bursts like weird experimental jazz with no time signature. The typical outcome is a hilarious tangle of formations, all Piano Tuners, which spiral into chaos. This is what makde them Party Animals (more Partytime speed runs than any other team). But in some rare cases, instead of being one beat behind in each generation, their patterns are one step ahead, and they can engulf their opponents, anticipating each move, while the random shifting time signatures make the attacks impossible to defend against. When the chaos works, they are unstoppable; when it doesn't, they are Party Animals.
99 Bottles Fight Song
The
Ft. Worth Piano Tuners
selected the song "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" as their fight song in their opening Season 1. At some point during Season 2, fans noticed that when they would sing the song during games, the Piano Tuners had a winning edge; as soon as they stopped singing the song, the Piano Tuners would start losing. The fans sprang into action and formed a traveling troupe of bards, "The Order of the Empty Bottle," who traveled with the team and maintained a vigil singing "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall." At each game, the Order of the Empty Bottle was there on the sidelines, like Joshua holding up his arms in battle. During the Season 2 winning streak, the strategy almost became too successful, with the singers nearly reaching the end of the song. Near bottle #7, everyone coordinated losing count, and everyone had to start over again, allowing the winning streak to continue.
