The drama continued in Toroidal/Season 17 as the Flamingos beat the Butchers to establish a Flawless Dynasty and the first multi-cup Dynasties in Golly history. Many critics noted that this mirrored events of the Hellmouth Cup, in which the Tucson Butchers similarly lost twice, giving the Flamingos a Flawless Dynasty with their second loss.

The controversy over the Flamingos winning four of their six championships by beating their anti-rivals raised questions about conflict of interest. The Tucson Butchers was suspected of throwing matches to help their anti-rivals achieve a Dynasty - if so, what did they receive in exchange?

The Commissioner's Office opened an investigation into the matter shortly after the Flamingos won their Season 17 Toroidal Cup championship.
