From Golly.Life Wiki
The Triple X is a set of three championship matches between the Tucson Butchers and the Milwaukee Flamingos (who were married in the Toroidal Cup after their involvement in the Midwest Love Triangle) that took place on Season 10 (or 11) of each of three respective cups (Hellmouth, Toroidal, Rainbow). They are:
- Hellmouth Cup: Season 10: Hellmouth Cup Series (also known as the Valentines Day Series); the Flamingos defeated the Butchers in 7 (4-3), coming from behind 0-3 to take the championship for the second time in two seasons. The Flamingos became the first-ever back-to-back champions in Golly.
- Toroidal Cup: Season 10: Toroidal Cup Series; the Flamingos defeated the Butchers in 6 (4-2), including a critical Game 4 shutout
- Rainbow Cup: Season 11: Rainbow Cup Series; the Butchers finished second, while the Flamingos finished third.
These three championship series form the Triple X.
The Triple X was formed at the conclusion of Rainbow/Season 11. The Butchers and Flamingos planned an elaborate ceremony for the announcement and sent invitation emails to everyone, but the Triple X in the subject line caused all of the emails to be flagged as Spam and discarded, so no one showed up.
