Glassy

Glassy on course for their second podium, 2017

**Glassy** is a dark green, transparent marble who competed in the Sand Marble Rally. Glassy participated in Sand Marble Rally 2016 and 2017, after which they retired. The reason for their retirement was possibly because they looked a lot like fellow Sand Marble Rally competitor Slimer. Throughout their career they only DNFd once.

## History

### 2016

Glassy was the last of the 17 finishers of the qualifying race. This was an unscored race which determined the marbles on the front row for Race 1 of Sand Marble Rally 2016. Glassy also finished 17th in that race. Their season was consistent and they scored in every race but two, but their best finish was fifth. They finished the season 17th.

### 2017

Glassy qualified for Sand Marble Rally 2017, and started the season with 6 finishes between 10th and 14th place. However, after that, they got a podium in Race 6, lots of top 9 finishes and 2nd in Race 10, their highest position ever. However, a good start to the final (in which they could take the championship if lucky) ended in many position losses and 15th place, which dropped them from 6th to 7th overall. After the season, it was confirmed that Glassy would retire. Glassy was confirmed to be replaced by Grasshopper for 2018 and onwards.

## Racer analysis and profile

Glassy was mostly a mid-field contender whose most important strength was the ability to be consistent from race to race and avoid DNFs, thus bringing home some points in nearly every race they started. This trait was best shown by them in 2017, when they were one of only three marbles to complete every race that season (others were Dragon's Egg and Black Knight) and furthermore the only one of these three to finish each event within points-paying positions. On their better days, Glassy was easily able to compete for wins at the front, with their best career race being the Race 10 of 2017 where they finished runner-up to Wisp of Darkness. Glassy's biggest flaw as a racer was seemingly their lack of endurance, which affected their performance in some of the longer races. An example of it was in their last career race, where they briefly burst into the lead early only to gradually drop down through nearly the entire field and finish 15th.

### Sand Marble Rally 2017

#### Qualifiers

Glassy competed in Qualifier 3. They qualified for Sand Marble Rally 2017.

## Trivia

* Glassy was the only marble to score points in every race in 2017.
High Jump

Mandarin from the O'rangers sets the current High Jump record

**High Jump** is an event featured in the Marble League. Marbles roll down a long track before jumping over a bar. If they clear the bar they move on to the next round. If they go under the bar or knock it off, they are out.

## Rules

While competing in High Jump, your goal is to make it over a bar. If the marble clears it, the bar is normally raised by 0.5 cm. After failing to clear the bar you are out. The marbles' score is the height they managed to clear. The number of failed attempts can be used as a tiebreaker.

In Marble League 2016 each marble was given one attempt at clearing the bar. Each marble took it in turns to clear that height before moving the bar up. Tiebreakers were decided using video analysis to see which marble had the highest jump.

In Marble League 2017 each marble was given three attempts to clear each height. Each marble did all of their jumps before moving on to the next competitor. Tiebreakers were decided by which team had a failed jump at the lowest height.

In Marble League 2020 each marble was given two attempts to clear each height. The event was broken up into three stages: 35.5 - 37.0 cm, 37.5 - 38.5 cm, and 39.0 cm and above. Tiebreakers were decided in favor of fewest misses, then highest first miss.

## Appearances

### 2016

#### Marble League 2016

*Main article: Marble League 2016 Event 7: High Jump*
The event started with a 50 cm bar and the first marble, Snowstorm for the Snowballs, didn't make it. Many of the marbles didn't even get close to 50 cm and went out straight away due to only being given one attempt. Imar from Team Primary became the first to clear the 50 cm bar. At the end Momomomo of Team Momo got bronze by hitting the bar at 53 cm, then Imar got silver for Team Primary by hitting it at 55 cm and Rojo Dos of the Rojo Rollers made it over the 55 cm mark to win the gold, but they wasn't satisfied with that and tried to achieve a new record attempt at 58 cm, although they didn't make it.

### 2017

#### Marble League 2017

*Main article: Marble League 2017 Event 8: High Jump*
High Jump appeared in Marble League 2017 as the eighth event with slightly different rules to the previous year.

Fantasy

**Fantasy** is a yellow goldish marble with a red line and a little bit of blue on them who used to compete in the Sand Marble Rally. On fast races they were easily confused with Pollo Loco. Fantasy competed in the Sand Marble Rally 2016 and 2017 before retiring and being replaced by Phoenix.

## History

### 2016

Fantasy started their career well, placing 5th in the first ever race of Sand Marble Rally 2016, and finished well in Race 2 also. However, in Races 3 and 5 they didn't finish, but survived elimination. In the second half of the season, they scored in every race, including coming third in Race 11. They finished in 11th overall.

### 2017

Fantasy qualified for 2017 after placing 3rd in their qualifier for Sand Marble Rally 2017. They didn't score in Race 1 of the season, but in Race 2 came eighth and in Race 3 came second, their best career result. However, they DNFd in Races 7, 9, and 12, although good results between these kept them 10th overall. The somewhat controversial double points in the final race saw them drop to 12th, despite passing some marbles in the standings after finishing 11th (H2 Blue and Lollipop overtook them).

### 2018

Unlike 7 out of the 8 marbles whose retirements were announced, Fantasy's was announced in the final race, where next to Phoenix's name, 'Ex-Fantasy' was shown. However, they are different marbles.

Icicle King

The Icicle King during Marble League 2018

The **Icicle King** is one of the members of the Royal Family of Snoronto along with the Icicle Queen. They are one of leaders of the nation that the Snowballs come from.

Jelle and Dion Bakker, as well as Greg Woods, met the Icicle King before they went on to Hailfern to see the Arctic Circle, the stadium of the Snowballs. They liked the stadium so much, they invited the Snowballs to host Marble League 2018. The King and Queen led the procession at the start of Marble League 2018 and were present throughout the competition, helping to award medals for certain events.

After the Snowballs failed to qualify for Marble League 2019, Snowflake made a comment that the conditions were unfair. The Oceanics, the hosts of Marble League 2019, were upset at the comments. The Royal Family advised the Snowballs to drop the charges after they negotiated with the Royal Family of Dunduei.

**Greenstone** is a Marbula One track located in the nation of the Green Ducks. It was the fifth Grand Prix track of Marbula One Season 1, and the fourth Grand Prix of Season 4.

## Marbula One

### Season 1

*Main article: Season 1 Greenstone Grand Prix*
This was a very technical track, with a total of 23 turns, more than every other Marbula One racetrack so far. The track started with two quick turns. Then followed a very large and slow S-section. This part required a lot of precision and almost stopped the marbles completely if not done properly. After that, they headed into a little chicane and a hairpin. Then a 90° turn followed by a long straight with a split in the middle. After that three fast turns with the main straight and at the end, a hairpin to finish it off.

* Pole Position: Yellup (Mellow Yellow) - 33.61
* Race Winner: Orangin (O'rangers) - 6:00.16 (9 laps)
* Fastest Lap: Bolt (Thunderbolts) - 39.06 (lap 5)

### Season 4

*Main article: Season 4 Greenstone Grand Prix*
For Season 4, the track layout itself remained mostly the same, with some changes on the curbs. The direction of running changed from counterclockwise to clockwise, and the start/finish area was relocated to the former back straight. As a consequence, the split was removed, and an accelerator was installed in the location of the former start/finish straight. Furthermore, the pit lane was removed.

* Pole Position: Swifty (Savage Speeders) - 1:45.383
* Race Winner: Swifty (Savage Speeders) - 6:41.31 (11 laps)
* Fastest Lap: Orangin (O'rangers) - 31.67 (lap 6)

## Trivia

* Changing from counterclockwise in Season 1 to clockwise in Season 4, Greenstone is the second track in Marbula One to change its direction, the first being Misty Mountain between Season 2 and Season 3.
* Greenstone holds the record for the most turns in a single track (23).
* Greenstone was the only track from Season 1 to be run counterclockwise.
* Greenstone is the 7th and final track from Season 1 to return to the series.

Big Pearl

Big Pearl on the podium.

**Big Pearl** is a tan marble who participated in the inaugural Sand Marble Rally. They were the runner-up of that Marble Rally season, but have since never been able to achieve that peak performance.

## History

### 2016

Big Pearl had a successful 2016 season, with three podiums, including a race win in Race 8. Going into the final race of the season, Big Pearl had a chance at the championship, but after nearly getting stuck early on the course, they missed out with a 13th-place finish in the race. Big Pearl finished 2nd overall in the 2016 season with 173 points.

### 2017

Big Pearl had a terrible start to the 2017 season with a DNF, but improved by taking a win in Race 2. After a string of DNF's and other poor results, they finished 18th that season with 55 points, barely ahead of Comet and only 1 point ahead of former champion Ghost Plasma, who came dead last. Third place in Race 8 was a rare highlight for their season.

### 2018

In 2018, Big Pearl improved on 2017 and finished 9th in the A league, but with only one podium finish to their name. Nonetheless, they were still far from their 2016 form, which remains their best in their career.

### 2019

In qualification for Marble Rally 2019, Big Pearl finished only 7th out 8, resulting in relegation to the Showdown. However, the Showdown proved to be their comeback, as Big Pearl went on to finish two of the four races on the podium, including a race win in Race 2. They thus finished first and was guaranteed to compete in the 2020 Championship.

### 2020

In September 2020, it was announced that the Race-Off and the Showdown had been cancelled, and that Marble Rally 2020 competitors would instead qualify by means of invitation. Despite their outstanding performance in the 2019 Showdown, Big Pearl was not invited to take part and missed out on the competition.

Ice Dash

The final of the 5 Meter Ice Dash (ML18)

The **Ice Dash** is an individual event featured in the Marble League. Four marbles from different teams raced down a lane-free ice sheet as quickly as they can.

## Rules

The 5 Meter Ice Dash is a racing event similar to the 5 Meter Sprint, the difference being the course is made of smooth plastic with no barriers between the marbles, causing an effect similar to slipping on ice. Each group is split in half and two heats of four marbles race against each other. The results from the two heats are combined to make an overall standings. The fastest marble down the track is the winner.
Caramel

**Caramel** is the current manager of the Chocolatiers.

Before joining the Chocolatiers, Caramel competed in the individual division of the Surculo where they met the Jawbreakers. This led to them being hired as the reserve member of the Jawbreakers after their poor performance in Marble League Showdown 2020 to replace former reserve Tidbit who had been promoted to the main team after the departure of Taffy. Despite joining the team, Caramel never had a chance to compete for the Jawbreakers as they disbanded later that year.

After the Jawbreakers disbanded, Caramel was hired as the manager of the Chocolatiers. They were brought on to help Truffle, the coach of the Chocolatiers, with the training schedule and managerial tasks. It was agreed that Caramel would have no part in the team's chocolatiering and would exclusively focus on their marble sports careers.

## Standings After Event

**Orange**: Not able to win Marbula E, but top 3 still possible.

## Trivia

* Unlike the previous Marbula E installments, there was no podium ceremony after the race.
* A timing error caused the race to be ended a lap early when the race ended after 5:30, as opposed to 5:30 + 1 lap. The given explanation was that Jelle's timer glitched during recording, and caused extra time to be taken off the clock.
* Another error occurred during qualifying when Techeetah’s marble was used for Porsche’s run and vice versa.

Cobra

Cobra in 2018

**Cobra** is a green and black marble, hailing from the village of Chi, who competes in the Marble Rally. They were named after the cobras indigenous to the local forests. Cobra has never had a good standing throughout their marble racing career, as seen by their inconsistent performances. However, they did qualify for Marble Rally 2019, and, perhaps due to their determination, were once again cleared to compete in the Marble Rally Season 5, despite finishing 17th in 2019. Despite taking their first career win in the 4th race of Season 5, Cobra wound up finishing 19th, just ahead of Blazing Fireball.

## History

### 2016

Cobra had a poor season, failing to score a single point up until Race 5. In Race 6, the race where the bottom 13 marbles were eliminated, they finished second and got 25 points. This elevated them to finish 27th overall in Sand Marble Rally 2016, but they were still eliminated after Race 6. They were behind Mocha Madness and ahead of Oddball.

### 2017

Cobra did not qualify Sand Marble Rally 2017, as they crashed after leading in their qualifier race.

### 2018

Cobra once again failed to qualify for Sand Marble Rally 2018. They earned 24 points and finished 7th overall in the B-League, in front of Green Turtle and behind El Capitan. Cobra suffered the only DNF of the B-League that season.

### 2019

In 2019, Cobra qualified for Marble Rally 2019. They didn't have a great season with quite a few low finishes, but they also had two top four finishes, one of a which was a podium finish. However, their inconsistency, along with two non-scores in the final two races saw them finish 17th, tied with Marbly McMarbleface on 32 points.

### 2020

Due to their low finish in 2019, Cobra was to be relegated to the 2020 Showdown. Fortunately, a sudden announcement from the JMRC saved them. Cobra was invited to take part in the Marble Rally Season 5 after the cancellation of the Qualifiers.

Cobra's first half was very similar to 2016, as they did not score any points in the first half except for Race 4, where they managed to clinch their first career win after starting on P1. However, the rest of their season was continuously poor, and they remained 19th across the entire second half.

Andromedome

Andromedome in June 2020

The **Andromedome**, formerly known as the Orion Stadium, was the location of Marble League 2020. The stadium is located in Polaria and owned by Team Galactic.

## History

The Andromedome Stadium received renovations in late 2019 in preparation for Marble League 2020. The renovations, engineered and constructed by Wet Concrete LLC, were completed in early 2020. The stadium was designed by chief architect Atlas and safety regulations were overseen by safety officer Emergency Jones to make sure the stadium was up to code.

As part of the renovations, Greg Woods worked with architects to design a custom announcer booth in the Andromedome. The stadium can seat 10,976 attendees, similar to the Seven Seas Stadium.

Many musicians and bands have performed at the Andromedome over the years, including Billie Marblish, The Rolling Rollers, The Spin Proctors, Mellacus and Minos, Marbellica, and the Mibsters.

## Trivia

* The Andromedome was previously named "Orion Stadium", before receiving renovations. The Orion Stadium only seated 8,000 attendees.
	+ The current name of the stadium is a portmanteau of the galaxy "Andromeda" and "dome".
* This is the fourth stadium to host the Marble League, the other three being the Bakker Bowl (2016-17), the Arctic Circle (2018), and the Seven Seas Stadium (2019).

Hailfern

**Hailfern** is a small city on the northeast coast of North America and the hometown of the Snowballs. It is known for its ski slopes, including Snowflake Slope, named after Snowflake of the Snowballs. The Snowballs became one of the most popular university teams on the continent while at the University of Snoronto which brought international attention to the city for the first time in centuries.

Before the fame of the Snowballs, Hailfern was a small village. Over time it started to grow into a small city, with a rapid expansion in 2017. One of the new tenants of the city was the Arctic Corporation, a construction company that built the Arctic Circle stadium as well as the training facilities for the Snowballs. The stadium was located on the opposite side of the mountain from Snowflake Slope overlooking the city. During the fall of 2017, Jelle and Dion Bakker as well as Greg Woods visited the stadium during their world tour. They liked the stadium so much they offered the Snowballs the chance to host Marble League 2018.

The Marble League 2018 Qualifiers, Friendly Round and the main competition all happened at the stadium. However, before the final event, the Sand Mogul Race, a blizzard in Hailfern caused an avalanche that destroyed the stadium and severely damaged the Snowballs' training facilities. The IMC decided to move the final event to the Bakker Bowl. The Snowballs started to rebuild the stadium in early 2019.

## Trivia

* Hailfern is a reference to Halifax, the capital of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia.

Bakker Bowl

## The Bakker Bowl

The stands during Marble League 2017

The **Bakker Bowl** is a Marble League stadium located in Knikkegen in Central Europe. The stadium is owned by Jelle and Dion Bakker and was the stadium used for their competition, the Knikkegen Marble League, until it finished in 2015. During 2015, the Bakker brothers met with Greg Woods who ran the Fruit Circuit, and decided to turn the KML into the Marble League. The stadium was refurbished and then used for Marble League 2016 and 2017.

During Marble League 2018, a snowstorm hit Hailfern, the host city of the competition, triggering an avalanche that destroyed the host stadium, the Arctic Circle. Upon surveying the damage, the Bakker brothers and the IMC decided to move the final event, the Sand Mogul Race, to the Bakker Bowl as a temporary stadium.

Aquamaring

The layout of the Aquamaring track.

The **Aquamaring** is the Marbula One track owned by the Oceanics. It hosted the fourth Grand Prix of Marbula One Season 2.

## Marbula One

### Season 2

*Main article: Season 2 Aquamaring Grand Prix*

The Aquamaring Circuit contains many challenging and twisty sections; however, it also has a lot of long straightaway sections. The track starts out with a righthanded 135-degree turn, that leads into a slalom section of the circuit that contains many switchback 90-degree corners, before a long straight takes the marbles down towards a technical Turns 6 and 7, where the marbles try to stay off the curbs in order to have a good entry into Turn 8, an incredibly slow corner, that takes them onto the ramp.

The ramp was the sight of controversy in Season 2, when Yellup from the Mellow Yellows flew off the track at that section, due to a slight bump at the bottom of the ramp, combined with the ramps angled trajectory towards the right side of the track (where Yellup went off the course). Following this incident, a barrier ended up being added to the section where the incident occurred.

A long straightaway that splits into 2 lanes follows after the marbles exit the ramp, where the marbles will then make their way towards a quick right-left chicane, that can either benefit marbles or not based on which side of the split they chose. Following a shorter straight, the marbles then go through a fast 180-degree turn, before a 90-degree right hander, and another hairpin ends off the lap.

* Pole Position: Ocean (Oceanics) - 44.35
* Race Winner: Red Eye (Crazy Cat's Eyes) - 8:05.73 (20 laps)
* Fastest Lap: Red Eye (Crazy Cat's Eyes) - 22.94 (lap 17)

## Trivia

* The track's name is a portmanteau of "aquamarine" and "ring".

Season 1

**Season 1** is the first and only season of *Chuck's Choice*. It consists of 20 episodes.

The first season premiered on May 6, 2017 and ended on June 9th 2017.

## Plot overview

The series is about an 11-year-old boy who has an intergalactic reality-altering robot named U.D. who manifest one of three choices throughout his day, leading to diverging adventures in each timeline.

This is called "Decider Mode" and time appears to freeze for everyone but U.D. and "The Decider" (normally Chuck). Although they seem random, U.D. reveals the ability to influence the selection in "Flush Hour Two" when he generates three identical options to seek help from a pirate monkey to rescue Ariana, the goldfish he befriended that belongs to Chuck's best friend Misha.
