The twelfth event of Marble League 2019, Rafting, was held on 29th May, 2019. Unlike previous years, the twelfth event in 2019 was not the final round, as there were 16 events in 2019. Rafting was a completely new event on the Marble League's calendar.
Event
Edit
In rafting, the teams sail down a stream of water in rafts one at a time. The team with the fastest time wins. If a marble falls out of the raft, the team gets 1 penalty second added to their time. If a raft gets stuck on the course, the team gets 2 extra attempts.
RaftsEdit
Midnight Wisps in the white raft.
Pinkies in the black raft.
There were 2 rafts, a black one and a white one. This was to distinguish lighter/darker colored teams more easily. The rafts had no difference in design, weight or structure.
Rafting was announced as an event for 2019 early in the year. JMRC member Darkarchon designed the rafts and there were multiple designs. The designs were all tested by voluntary marbles from the fan team the Telescopics, a fan team which didn't make it past the first round of voting for Marble League Showdown 2019.
ResultsEdit
- Gold: Green Ducks
- Silver: Midnight Wisps
