Atlantis Georgias/Season 16

In , the Atlantis Georgias finished 7th in the Wild League and 15th in the ILB.
Season 16 saw marked improvements compared to the previous four Seasons, with the Georgias finishing third in the Wild High division and breaking forty wins for the first time ever. Improvements to the Georgias' rotation made in the previous Season were apparent; though Knight Triumphant proved to be a worse pitcher than the Georgias had hoped, they were still a vast improvement over Ankle Halifax, and moving Flattery McKinley to the Lineup proved to be only a beneficial change. Unfortunately, halfway through the Season, a wave of Reverb would move McKinley back to the pitching rotation, though otherwise the changes made by this Reverb largely benefited the Team.
In the Election, the Georgias voted to once again use the Will to move Flattery McKinley to the Lineup, while the Will ended up exchanging Mordecai Kingbird for Montgomery Bullock, for reasons no one has yet to figure out.

==Season Overview==
The following summary mixes canon events with community lore.
Despite a few difficult Consumer attacks in the previous Season, Seasons of small improvements were finally starting to pay off for the Georgias, such as "not having Flattery McKinley on the pitching rotation" and "having Flattery McKinley on the batting lineup instead". The Georgias finally found themselves going toe-to-toe with their Wild High cohorts, surpassing the Mexico City Wild Wings, the Breckenridge Jazz Hands, and the Tokyo Lift, though the titans of Wild Low continued to elude them.
Despite major improvement to their performance, however, Georgias continued to remain far from the best team in the League, especially as deceptive star counts and unpredictable weather patterns would act against their favor. The Georgias ultimately would enter Party Time on Day 89, but by improving from a bad team to a merely mediocre team, victory felt closer than ever.
===League-Renowned Bad Player Knight Triumphant===
Knight Triumphant was quick to return from Elsewhere after joining the Georgias' Rotation, reappearing on Day 3 and pitching the first game immediately after. Triumphant was surprised to find Ortiz Lopez had joined the Georgias, and the two were quick to bond on their new team.
Triumphant was quickly welcomed by teammates and fans alike, as they watched in anticipation to see just how they would perform as a pitcher. Much to the disappointment of fans, they proved to be largely underwhelming for their four and a half pitching stars. They were not an awful pitcher, being a major improvement over Ankle Halifax, but as a whole, they walked far more batters than was appreciated and ended up losing more games than they won.
While Triumphant was a mediocre pitcher at the absolute worst, Fans would begin exaggerating Triumphant's poor pitching talent, eventually leading to them earning the moniker of "League-Renowned Bad Player Knight Triumphant" in the Georgias fanbase. While it could be questioned if Triumphant is truly deserving of the flack they receive from the Georgias community, they have continued to remain a target of the Georgias' jokes to the present day.
===The FlatteReverb===
Less disappointing, however, was the movement of Flattery McKinley to the lineup in the previous Election. McKinley quickly proved to be a capable hitter and base thief, often hitting the ball with great power and managing to steal any bases that were left behind. Seasons of attempting to turn McKinley into a workable player were finally paying off, but this would not last for long, as halfway through the Season, a twist of fate would move McKinley back to the mound.
On Day 54, a wave of Reverb hit the Atlantis Georgias, shuffling players between the Lineup and Rotation. Frankie Hambone and Geraldine Frost would be given new positions on the Lineup, with Flattery McKinley and Jan Canberra taking their places on the Rotation. While Hambone and Frost adjusted well to their new position, McKinley and Canberra did not, with Canberra having to be chained to the pitching mound to prevent her from committing further crimes.
Upon moving back to the rotation, McKinley pitched much like they had before: terribly. McKinley begrudgingly resumed their strike, though they came to question how much it was actually working given their progress could be erased so easily. Despite only pitching for half the Season, McKinley managed to make the leaderboard for batters walked in Season 16. However, McKinley still managed to pull off a shutout against the Kansas City Breath Mints, something that continues to amaze fans to this day.
===Election===
Due to a marked improvement in performance compared to previous Seasons, the Georgias were not given a Free Will, though given the wimdies they had experienced before, most Georgias fans welcomed the change of pace.
The first of the Georgias' two Wills was obvious: moving Flattery McKinley back to the Lineup. McKinley was known to be a capable batter and a lackluster pitcher, and given how much this change helped the team in the previous Election, it was only natural for the team to Move them again. McKinley was quick to accept this, especially given they would now be batting immediately after their wife, a change they were more than happy with.
As for the second will, most Georgias fans were hoping to exchange the recently bitten Mordecai Kingbird for Fish Summer, a star batter with a thematically appropriate name. However, as the election came to pass, the Georgias would instead find Hawai'i Fridays pitcher Montgomery Bullock joining their Lineup, a decision that confused teammates and Fans alike. The team would once again press their sponsor Angelika Aufdiscord for comment, in which she would reply with the following:
"Oh, golly! Silly old me, it looks like I got them all mixed up with that other guy! I'm sorry, their names are just too similar! Oh well! They shouldn't be too different, right? Wishing you the best in the next Season, do good for me out there! Toodles!"
Same as it ever was.
Despite the unexpected turn of events, however, Mordecai Kingbird took well to Hawai'i, as pri was immediately given a Skate Board in the same Election.
