Bloxy Awards baseball minigame rumor
During the pre-show of the 8th Annual Bloxy Awards, mariodylan spread a rumor on Twitter that there was a secret baseball minigame hidden somewhere within the lobby of the Bloxy Awards. This led to hundreds of users, including KreekCraft and members of the Roblox Discussion Team of Gunters, to search for the key to unlock the so-called baseball minigame. Many other infleuntial QA testers and developers, including DeeterPlays, MiniToon, r0cu, and Spectaqual, assisted mariodylan by posting hints that would potentially lead players to discover the baseball minigame.

The Baseball Minigame was revealed to be fake shortly after the Bloxy Awards aired, leaving many upset and angry with mariodylan. Despite this, many players continued to joke or even search for the baseball minigame, even though mariodylan revealed that it does not exist. Mariodylan, along with many other community members, would continue to reference the baseball minigame through other means or jokes in other events:


 * Super Ball Battle intended on having a baseball minigame hidden somewhere within the Metaverse Champions quest available in the game; however, due to development time constraints, this was cut out of the mission entirely.
 * Mariodylan himself joked that there was a football minigame hidden in the Nerf Hub event place.
 * The texture of the Willow Wolf Head alluded to the existence of a golf minigame hidden in Piggy. This was later picked up on by KreekCraft, MiniToon, and mariodylan, who continued to spread rumors about it.

The baseball minigame itself is a reference to a SimpleFlips video, in which he says he completed the gender sign level of Tetris Plus after beating the baseball minigame. Although there is a baseball level in Tetris Plus, there is no baseball minigame. Nevertheless, the baseball minigame continues to be an in-joke in the SimpleFlips community, with various videos and memes based around it.
