/sci/ History

2012 Spring Babby Cup

The original /sci/ kits, the home kits donned the black and blue colours of the team based off Inter Milan's kits.

Discussions to field a team representing /sci/ started off on January 6th, 2012 by Lion !FvAwVR8cv6, the board welcomed the proposal and started throwing proposals for players on the team. Between these proposals were included some logo ideas that featured then /sci/'s mascot /sci/duck and a generic scientist on a square background, but ultimately a square logo featuring Carl Sagan, Thorium and its atomic number and the number pi won the attention of the board and was declared the official logo that still stands to this day. The roster listed below was fielded for the 2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup Friendlies but /sci/ failed to submit a roster within the deadline by 4 minutes, commissioner GermanBro was harsh on the team and punished them with no medals, thus affecting them on their debut against d, but /sci/ took it quite well and even joked about the incident by making 4 minutes their goalhorn for the friendlies. Of course /sci/ lost their game against /d/ but somehow managed to beat /vp/ thanks to some serious spaghetti by them including 2 own goals by their players.

By the time the proper competition came, /sci/ incorporated now famous striker Bill Nye the Science Guy after being suggested by board goer Luca, Bill Nye quickly became /sci/'s gold striker in the GSBB era. The tournament had /sci/ drawn with /pol/, /r9k/ and /mlp/. /sci/'s start was a heartbreaking 1-1 draw against /r9k/ with a late minute goal by Japanese Lettuce Hardcore. Against /mlp/ the tables turned around as Bill Nye scored a near last minute equalizer. Facing uncertainty for their last game after /r9k/ defeated /mlp/, /sci/ had to beat /pol/ in the first edition of the Progressb Owl and got the result they wanted, a 2-1 win with goals by both Richards: Dawkins and Feynman. A play-in had to be made in order to be in the proper knock-out phase, so /sci/ as runners-up of their group faced /gif/ and managed to get a 1-0 win to secure both a place in the quarters and the Summer Cup. In the quarters /sci/ routed the now infamous Durgen /n/ team to make the semis. But the dreams of gold ended with a 2-1 loss against /3/ with a failed rally attempt by Bill Nye that wasn't enough. Consolation came as /sci/ managed to beat /d/ to obtain the third place spot, a very fitting way to end their first official tournament by defeating their very first rivals.
