Hubelino Tournament 2016 Event 5: Quartet Jump

The Minty Maniacs jumping

The fifth event in the Hubelino Tournament 2016 was held on 19th December 2016. The event was the **Quartet Jump**.

## Event

In the Quartet Jump, each team descends down a small ramp before landing on a scoring area with numbered tiles. Situated at the far end of the arena are 2 Hubelino towers, left freestanding. Scoring works as follows:

* If a marble stops on a tile with a number on it, they score points equivalent to the value of the tile. Tiles with the Hubelino logo on them are worth 1 point.
	+ A marble that stops on multiple numbered tiles will only score for the tile that it covers the most.
* A marble loses a point if they knock over either of the freestanding towers. Penalties are applied after all other forms of scoring.
* If a marble escapes the arena or lands in the pit behind the scoring section, they receive 0 points.

The marbles racing through the maze

The seventh event in the Hubelino Tournament 2018 was held on 30th October 2018. The event was the **Maze**.

## Event

In the Maze event, 1 member of each team rolls down a maze constructed with Hubelino pieces. The last marble to cross the finish line is eliminated from the event. If at least 1 marble stops moving, the one stranded closest to the starting line is eliminated, sparing the last marble to finish. If there is more than 1 marble stuck at the same height, the marble that is furthest from the center line is eliminated. The remaining marbles compete in another round with the same rules, and the process is repeated until only 1 marble remains, who is then declared the winner of the event. 2 ball bearings are also released in every round to help release stuck marbles.

## Results

 **OUT** | The team did not participate in the round as they had already been eliminated from the event.

Host's Curse

The **Host Curse** is a community theory that the team that hosts a competition or an event will do poorly in that competition or event. The first competition to have a host was Marble League 2018 hosted by the Snowballs who came 7th. However, the theory didn't gain popularity until Marble League 2019, hosted by the Oceanics, after they finished in last place overall after failing to win a medal.

The theory was put to the test with the start of Marbula One Season 1. With different teams hosting different Grands Prix, more data would be available to test the host curse theory. The results were mixed, leading some to call into question whether the host's curse exists or whether the Oceanics's poor performance was just the 3rd Place Curse. The curse's existence was once again questioned when the Balls of Chaos hosted Marble ManiaX wherein they finished dead last.

With Team Galactic, the Crazy Cat's Eyes and the Green Ducks finishing 7th, 5th and 5th respectively in their Marble League host seasons, the Host Curse is now believed by the community to be a busted theory. This was cemented when the Bumblebees, the hosts of Marble League 2023 finished on the podium.

Drophole (Sand Rally)

A **Drophole** is a bridge with a hole on it. The hole has been drilled to be big enough that any unaware marble can drop through it. Underneath the bridge, there is a sidepath which is longer and slower than the main path. Therefore, marbles must try to avoid this hole if they wish to keep their position. Sometimes, another obstacle like a pin or block can be placed just beyond the hole, which will prevent marbles from jumping over the hole so they can fall through the hole and be forced to take the slower sidepath.
G-FORCE Endurance (Tournament)

The Jungle Jumpers vs Mellow Yellow in Heat 3

**G-FORCE Endurance** was a mini-tournament held on 5th August 2023 between eight teams that were not invited to Marbula One Season 4. It was a trial for a new style of event involving a spinning table.

## Rules

The G-Force Endurance event is a single-elimination bracket event. In each match, 2 teams of 5 are held in a starting gate on opposite sides of a spinning disc. There are 6 gaps spread evenly throughout the walls of the disc. The starting gate is lifted allowing the marbles to roll freely. The first team to have all 5 marbles completely off the disc loses the match.

## Results

### Bracket

Scores denote how many marbles from the winning team were on the disc at the moment which the losing team's last marble was eliminated.

### Statistics

*N.B.: The values in this section were calculated by Human86. They are not official data. Based on commentary notes, the captain starts the closest to the bell, and the reserve starts closest to the outer border.*

## Overall Results

Elimination Race

The Elimination Race during Marble League 2021

The **Elimination Race** is an event featured in the Marble League. Individual marbles from each team roll down a track full of obstacles. The last marble to cross the finish line is eliminated. The race is then repeated until there is a winner.

## Rules

### Hubelino Tournament

The event first appeared as the **Elimination Maze** in Hubelino Tournament 2016, and reappeared as simply **Maze** in Hubelino Tournament 2018. Eight marbles would roll down a course made of Hubelino blocks similar to Maze Run, being eliminated one-by-one, until only one remained. The team to last cross the finish line would be eliminated, unless a marble got stuck farther up the course, leading to a DNF. In case multiple marbles DNF the same distance from the finish line, the one farthest from the center line would be eliminated.

### 2019

In the 2019 version of the event, eight marbles rolled down a course made of Gravitrax which featured multiple obstacles. The marbles had to find their way to the finish line as fast as possible. The last marble to cross the line (or in case of an DNF, the marble who is the furthest of the finish) gets eliminated, hence the name elimination race.

Each of the two heats featured eight marbles and three rounds. In rounds one and two, the first marble to cross the line went through to the final while the last marble was eliminated. In round three, the first two marbles to cross the line went through to the final while the final two were eliminated.

In the final there were six rounds. In the first five rounds, the last marble o cross the line was eliminated. In the sixth round there were three marbles remaining and the finishing order determined the podium.

### 2021

In the 2021 version, an individual marble from each of the sixteen teams raced down a Gravitrax track filled with obstacles. The last across the line was eliminated. This continued until two marbles remained and the first across the line was the winner.

### Marble ManiaX

Hunluen

**Hunluen** is a city in Asia and is the largest and most populated city in the world. The city is the home city of the Balls of Chaos. Hunluen was established in the third century when marbles from Om migrated northeast in a search for riches. They came across a flat plain in the center of several tributaries and established the city. Over time the city expanded beyond the rivers as well as expanding southeast towards the bay. In the 19th century the city became a hub for innovation and started to attract the attention of other civilizations. After many negotiations, the marbles of the city decided to open the city to outsiders.

The city is known for it's architecture which evolved from Om architecture, becoming more stylized, reaching out in all directions. The architecture is based on the Arms of Chaos, a universal symbol that the marbles of the city live by.

The city has previously hosted the MFC Championship League.

Bowling

Bowling during Marble ManiaX

**Bowling** is an event that has featured in both Marble ManiaX and the Marble League. The goal of the event is to earn as many points as possible by knocking down different colored dominoes which act as the pins.

## Rules

One member of the team descends down a steep track through a loop-the-loop (vertical loop) which leads into a ramp. The marble is launched off the ramp and lands on the bowling lane which contains a bump. They then roll over the bump and down the rest of the track towards different-colored dominoes that act as bowling pins, avoiding coming off the track for a "gutterball". Each team sends two separate marbles for the bowls. Unlike in regular bowling, pins that fall are not removed during the second bowl. After each team has completed their frame, points are scored, and the team with the most points wins. The scores for knocking over a domino are shown below, along with their rarities.

For the Marble League version, the loop, the ramp and the bump in the bowling lane were removed. Furthermore, the track leading down towards the bowling lane was shorter, as well as the bowling lane itself, and there were fewer dominoes to knock over.
Felynia

**Felynia** is a city located between two rivers and is known for it's prestige in film and entertainment. The city is the home of the Crazy Cat's Eyes, the city's only major sports team. It was the host city of Marble League 2021. Two ancient Felyni traditions are stealth and speed, ensuring mastery of quick precision. The city is run by a mayor and a High Council, led by Cleocatra.

Before Marble League 2021 a parade was held in the city to celebrate the Crazy Cat's Eyes' victory in Marbula One Season 2 which featured members of the team and all 20 competitors from Marble Rally Season 5. They also presented the team with a key to the city and renamed two streets "Red Eye Way" and "Yellow Eye Road". A road was also named the "Red Eye Honorary Boulevard"

Famous locations include:

* Cat's Dunes - sand dunes located outside the city named in honor of Crazy Cat's Eye, the Sand Marble Rally competitor who trains there in solitude.
* Felynia Coliseum - the stadium that hosted Marble League 2021
* Mirage Meowntain - a Marbula One track

Bombay

Bombay during Marble League 2019

**Bombay** is the coach of the Green Ducks. They led the Green Ducks to a second place finish in their first Marble League, Marble League 2019, the best finish for a rookie team in the Marble League as well as successful Marbula One appearances.

## History

### Pre-Marble League

Bombay is from Bermenghank, a city it the Brace Isles. They are the parent of Mallard and Billy. In 2014 their partner went into the infirmarblery where unfortunately they passed on. Bombay wasn't working at the time and used most of the family's money to pay for the funeral. Bombay continued to struggle finding work, and Mallard found themselves working on a farm, looking after ducks with Billy.

In 2017, Mallard secretly entered a bid to get tickets to Marble League 2017, and won. They surprised their friends, Quacky, Ducky and Goose, with a trip to see the games in Knikkegen and watched from the Jungle Jumpers fan area, the team they supported as their colors reminded them of the grass on the farm. After they returned home, the group decided to start training to become marble sports athletes. They spoke to Bombay, who quit their job in tourism to become their coach. They decided to name their team the Green Ducks.

The Green Ducks started competing in minor leagues across the British Isles, a place not well known for marble sports at the time. They emerged as the most dominant team in the region. This way, the team earned themselves a great deal of sponsorships, allowing the team to become financially stable. They moved to Draklin in 2018 and started to use Joshdon Stadium as their home stadium.

In late 2018, rumors started to spread that Team Plasma were retiring from the Marble League due to lack of training, leaving an opening in the qualifiers for Marble League 2019. The Green Ducks promptly applied for participation in the Marble League, hoping to take their place. In early 2019, the team were accepted to take part in the Marble League 2019 Qualifiers.

## Appearances

### 2018

#### Marble League 2018

*Main article: Marble League 2018*
Bobsled made its debut appearance as the fourth event of Marble League 2018, featuring a track made from snow and a few sleds of differing colors. The event saw multiple marbles fall out of their sleds. Team Momo came to a stop on their run due to Momomo falling ill due to altitude sickness and were allowed a second attempt. During the second run Momomomo was knocked out on an impact with a corner but managed to stay in the bobsled. These injuries resulted in the formation of Team Momary.
