EXCLUSIVE In an emotional and candid interview, Elmer_Hauser, the team captain of Purple Pain, breaks his silence
Interviewer: Elmer, thank you for taking the time to speak with me today. Let’s start with the elephant in the room—your off-season suspension. How are you feeling about it now that some time has passed?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
Honestly? I’m still pretty pissed about it. I know, it’s been months, and I should probably move on, but it feels like I was hung out to dry. One mistake and suddenly I’m sidelined, watching my team struggle while I’m stuck on the sidelines. It’s hard not to carry that frustration with me into the season. I’ve always given everything to this league, and to be punished like that…it stings.
Interviewer: Looking back, do you feel like the suspension was fair, or do you think it was blown out of proportion?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
Blown way out of proportion. I won’t pretend I didn’t mess up, but it wasn’t something worth a suspension in my eyes. The league came down too hard, and I’m still dealing with the fallout. The media had a field day with it, and I think they made me out to be a villain when it wasn’t that serious. I’ve seen worse behavior from others that didn’t lead to suspensions, and that’s what frustrates me the most.

Interviewer: On a more personal note, there’s been some talk that you’ve been feeling homesick for Electric Slime, the team you used to play for. Is there any truth to that?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
Sighs. Yeah, I’ll be honest—it’s true. I miss those guys sometimes. I spent a good chunk of my career at Electric Slime, and those bonds don’t just go away. There’s something about the way we played together, the chemistry we had—it’s hard to replicate that anywhere else. I’ve got a lot of love for Purple Pain, don’t get me wrong, but part of me still feels like Electric Slime is home. Every now and then, I catch myself wishing I was still there.*

Interviewer: Do you ever regret leaving Electric Slime, or do you feel like your time with Purple Pain has been worth it despite everything?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
Regret? I wouldn’t say that. I’ve had some great moments with Purple Pain, and I wouldn’t trade those for anything. But there are days when I wonder what life would be like if I’d stayed with Electric Slime. It’s hard not to feel that pull, especially when you’re going through tough times with your current team. It’s like thinking about an ex you still care about—you wonder if things would be easier if you’d never left. But at the same time, I’ve grown a lot since coming to Purple Pain. I just wish the journey had been smoother.

Interviewer: You’ve also expressed a bit of envy toward Orange Crush. Can you explain where that comes from?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
Man, Orange Crush—they’re everything I want Purple Pain to be. They’ve got this unity, this consistency, that we just haven’t been able to find. They play hard, they play smart, and they’ve got this swagger about them. I look at how Footy Is The Win runs that team, and I can’t help but be a little envious. They’ve built something special over there, and it feels like we’re still trying to figure out who we are as a team.

Interviewer: Do you think Purple Pain has the potential to reach that level? What do you think it would take to get there?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
We’ve got the talent, no doubt about that. But we’re missing something—maybe it’s the leadership, maybe it’s the chemistry. I don’t know. But I think we can get there if we buckle down and figure out what’s holding us back. I look at Orange Crush, and I see a blueprint for what Purple Pain could be. They’ve got that killer mentality, and I think we need to find that in ourselves. It’s going to take time, and it’s going to take everyone buying in, but I believe we can do it. We’ve just got to want it as badly as they do.

Interviewer: You mentioned leadership. Do you feel like you’ve been able to provide that for Purple Pain, especially coming off the suspension?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
I’d like to think I’ve done my best, but I know the suspension hurt my credibility a bit. It’s tough to lead when you’ve been knocked down like that, but I’m working to regain the trust of my teammates. I know I’ve got more to give as a leader, and I’m determined to prove that I can guide this team to where we need to be. The suspension was a setback, but I’m not going to let it define me or my role on this team.

Interviewer: Do you feel like there’s a way forward for you and Purple Pain, where you can reach that level of success you see in teams like Orange Crush?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
I hope so. I really do. I’m not going to lie, it’s been tough, and there are days where I feel like we’re stuck in neutral. But I haven’t given up hope. We’ve got a great group of players, and if we can just get on the same page and start believing in ourselves the way Orange Crush does, I think we can turn this thing around. It’s not going to be easy, but nothing worth having ever is.

Interviewer: Finally, do you have any message for your former teammates at Electric Slime or your current squad at Purple Pain?
Elmer_Hauser (Captain of Purple Pain):
To my old crew at Electric Slime, I’ll always have love for you. I’ll never forget where I came from, and I’m proud of everything we did together. As for Purple Pain, I’m still here. I’m still fighting for this team, and I believe we can do something special if we stay the course. We’ve got a lot to prove, and I’m not going anywhere until we get to where we need to be.

bAyFLX Pre-Season Round 3 Hit by Software Bug: Admin Team Working to Resolve Delays
As the highly anticipated Round 3 of the bAyFLX pre-season approaches, excitement among fans and teams has been put on hold due to an unexpected software bug that is disrupting scheduling. The glitch, which affects the date and time settings in the league’s digital system, has caused confusion over match timings and thrown team preparations into disarray.
As the highly anticipated Round 3 of the bAyFLX pre-season approaches, excitement among fans and teams has been put on hold due to an unexpected software bug that is disrupting scheduling. The glitch, which affects the date and time settings in the league’s digital system, has caused confusion over match timings and thrown team preparations into disarray.
The Bug and Its Impact
The issue surfaced late last night when teams noticed discrepancies between scheduled match times across different platforms. Some matches were appearing to take place in the future, others in the past, and a handful of games had their times shifted multiple times throughout the day. According to bAyFLX’s IT department, the bug is rooted in a glitch within the league’s centralized scheduling system, which has caused inaccurate time stamps to be generated across the league's digital channels, including the official app and website.
For teams like Big Red and Lemon Squeeze, who have been meticulously preparing for their upcoming matches, the uncertainty has impacted their pre-game routines. “We train for specific time slots, and this mix-up has thrown off our rhythm,” said one coach. "It might not seem like much, but for a team preparing for game day, it's frustrating."

The Response from bAyFLX Administration
In a public statement, bAyFLX’s administration team acknowledged the issue and assured fans and players that they are working hard to fix the bug. “We understand the frustration this has caused for both teams and fans,” said a spokesperson for the league. “Our IT specialists are working around the clock to isolate the issue and implement a fix. We’re doing everything we can to ensure that pre-season Round 3 gets back on track as quickly as possible.”
While the league hasn’t provided an exact timeline for when the problem will be fully resolved, bAyFLX has reassured the community that any missed matches will be rescheduled, and all ticket holders will be notified of the new dates as soon as possible.

Potential Delays in Round 3
With the technical team hard at work, the admin team is preparing for potential delays to Round 3, which was set to feature key matchups like Pink Tank vs. Gray Blades and Electric Slime vs. Rainbow Power. These games have been highly anticipated as teams ramp up their final preparations for the official season. Fans are understandably disappointed but remain hopeful for a swift resolution.
“Delays are never ideal, but we trust the league to handle it,” said one avid Pink Tank supporter. “At the end of the day, we just want the games to go ahead without further hiccups, even if that means waiting a little longer.”
The league has also stated that once the bug is fixed, they will implement additional safeguards to ensure that such issues don’t arise again. “Our priority is the integrity of the game,” the spokesperson continued. “We are committed to delivering a seamless and enjoyable experience for everyone involved, even if it means taking some extra time to ensure the system is functioning correctly.”

What This Means for Teams
For teams, the delays could mean a longer pre-season, which might benefit some, allowing more training time, while frustrating others that have already built their rhythm and momentum. Elmer_Hauser, captain of Purple Pain, expressed mixed feelings. “On one hand, extra time is good for us—we’ve got a lot to work on after a rocky pre-season start. But on the other hand, the uncertainty throws off our focus.”
Other teams, like Orange Crush, remain optimistic. Footy Is The Win, captain of Orange Crush, noted, “Bugs happen. It’s part of the modern game. We’ll stay sharp and ready for whatever date they throw at us.”

Looking Ahead
As bAyFLX’s tech team works tirelessly to fix the bug, fans and players are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates. The league has promised to keep everyone informed through their official channels and is offering additional support for teams to manage the scheduling confusion.
Although the delays are frustrating, the bAyFLX community remains hopeful that Round 3 will resume soon and continue to showcase the league’s exciting and competitive spirit.
For now, patience is key, and all eyes are on the bAyFLX admin team as they work to restore order in the pre-season.
