Chapter 528:
En Passant Grandmaster
"Welcome back! Today it's the least favorite games of Season 7."
And there is a lot.
"So let's get into it starting with...
Number 10: Game log #309: Brawl at Stanford brua.
With how mixed I felt about this one, it should come as no surprise that it's on the lower end of the list. By itself, it's a good game, but the timing of it combined with me rushing it a bit due to burnout is why I have to give it the bottom spot on the list.
Number 9: Game log #294: Smoldering smidje.
"Because of it being the core of your angst for 6B?"
Solely because of that. Overall, this is a solid game, but for the Season 7 specific list, this gets a spot solely for leading to me struggling with 6B. To be fair, it all worked out though which is why it's so low on the list.
Number 8: Game log #228: Inez and the blueberry sea.
More so making the list because it was extra work to do.
"So it's by default?"
My list, so I make the rules.
Number 7: Game log #249: Fools of the day.
It was meant to be a joke, not to be good. Moving on.
Number 6: Game log #294: The 6B finals.
You knew another game from 6B was gonna make the list simply due to how much stress I had with that arc.
"But isn't this game log technically 2 games?"
Yes, though the first game is barely even a game. The point is that both these games came when I was stressed, and thus, I didn't have fun making them.
Number 5: Game log #260: Repeat Sweep.
And here we have an instance where I just hated writing a game. Despite a resignation occurring in what was originally a 52-move game to mate, 32 moves was still a lot. Not to mention, I felt agitated writing this, mainly due to me feeling I was forced to write it due to the mini-plotline I had set up with Czechoslovakia and Ecuador.
Number 4: Game log #254: Daria vs the Fairies.
A predictable pick. This one makes the list mainly because it was so long, I didn't even bother showing it.
"Then why'd you add it in the first place?"
The game itself is good, and I wanted it to be showcased to the world. The problem was my motivation was at it's lows while writing the round 7 stuff post Japan vs Estonia.
Number 3: Game log #254: Artiljerija der Blitzhölle.
To no one's surprise, one of the most underwhelming games in the series makes the list. No further comment.
Number 2: Game log #308: Path plower.
This one I just felt like I was forced to write, which only contributed to my disdain for it. The game itself is fine, but I didn't enjoy writing it.
Number 1: Game log #266: Alouette, gentille alouette.
Sure everyone saw this one coming. I hated writing this one out, was stressed trying to write it, and the game itself is pretty shitty. I doubt it'll dethrone One wrong move on the overall list, but I could easily see this one taking second there.
"And that's all, but the negativity ain't over yet. Before we can do the good, we gotta do the bad, so next up, Mario's top 10 most hated games in the whole series!"
