The ABQ.png Albuquerque Solarpunks (The Punks) are a Golly team from Albuquerque, New Mexico. They joined the league in Season 16 of the Hellmouth Cup.

Like the VV.png Vegas Vampires , the Solarpunks are time travelers; the collective was formed in 2083 (in a parallel universe) by a group of federated anarcho-collectivist commune-syndicates. The collective became stranded when they traveled back in time, not only traveling further back in the past than intended, but also traveling to a past parallel universe where the collective had not studied time travel in college, but had instead dropped out and became a Golly sports team. When they realized they were stranded in a parallel universe, they embraced their fate, joined the league, and became solarpunk evangelists.

The Solarpunks' stadium, The Greenhouse, is a living, breathing, carbon-negative building that generates 150% of its energy needs through an array of transparent photosynthetic surfaces. The structure is a working model of the team's cellular automata principles, with channels that reconfigure themselves based on air circulation. The entire building's breathing mechanism is driven by a natural convection channel built into the center of the building.

Toroidal Cup

History

Texas Murder Coalition

In Toroidal/Season 20, there was some buzz around the league about the possibility of the Commissioner announcing a new Choke Artist: the SS.png Seattle Sneakers . The Curse of the Ancient Mariner had cemented itself into their lore, and the Sneakers, thirsty for a Cup series victory, knew this could be their final do-or-die opportunity. The Sneakers delivered, sweeping the FF.png Phoenix Freshrolls in the first round, sweeping the EA.png Elko Astronauts in the second round, and shutting down the ORL.png Orlando Business Majors in 5 efficient games.

In the final moments after the Sneakers were celebrating their victory, the Commissioner had appear to them from the static, like an apparition, and presented the Sneakers with a choice: Cake or Death? The Sneakers shouted "Cake!" - and the Commissioner disappeared just as quickly as they had appeared. Later, the Sneakers learned that the BTX.png Baltimore Texas had been presented with the remaining option, Or Death, and was subsequently incinerated as part of the Cancel Texas Memo.

After all of these events had taken place, and documented, and discussed, and digested, everyone in the league began to afford a certain level of respect to teams who had been involved in the incineration of the Texas. This informal ranking was later studied and formalized by Goober Boylston in a "Boylston on Boylston Violence" column. The ranking was dubbed the Texas Murder Coalition, and consists of teams who participated in the postseason bracket of Toroidal/Season 20, directly or indirectly, and who as a consequence led to the Seattle Sneakers winning the Toroidal Cup, being presented with the choice of Cake or Death, and leaving the Baltimore Texas to their fate of Or Death.

The list, in order of culpability/veneration:

  1. SS.png Seattle Sneakers
  2. ORL.png Orlando Business Majors
  3. EA.png Elko Astronauts
  4. DECO.png Delaware Corporate Shells
  5. FF.png Phoenix Freshrolls

Klein Cup

History

Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire

The ABQ.png Albuquerque Solarpunks completed a devastating sweep of the SFBS.png San Francisco Boat Shoes in the Klein Cup in Season 15.

The Boat Shoes' final legitimate chance at Klein Cup glory came in Klein/Season 15. In a heroic run, they defeated their old Klein Loop rivals the VV.png Vegas Vampires in the Division Series and then won a seven-game thriller against their other old Klein Loop rivals the DET.png Detroit Grape Chews to clinch their first pennant in 8 seasons. They had finally overcome the agony of the Hot League Championship Series (with much help from fate guiding them to play the definitely-cursed Grape Chews in the Championship Series).

And the reward for all of the hard work by the Boat Shoes to get back to the Klein Cup? Getting absolutely roasted in a 4-0 sweep in the Klein Cup final at the hands of the ABQ.png Albuquerque Solarpunks .

It was their last hurrah in the postseason, and truly one fitting of a team whose Klein Cup performance was summed up in the phrase, "Boat Shoes Agonistes."
