Contributors

Project Marblearth would be nothing without the marble sports fanbase: a robust community that is always eager to engage with the content of Jelle’s Marble Runs and bring it to the next level. The members of the community that have contributed to Project Marblearth are featured on this page.

Editorial Board

The Editorial Board serves to support the Project’s volunteer system of contributors and project its creative voice throughout the marble sports community. It ensures that Project Marblearth can be a safe space for fans to share artwork, stories, and other creative content by engaging with contributors to supervise their progress and collaborate when desired or needed. The Board functions as a decentralized, collaborative organ that maintains an interdependent relationship between its members and contributors working on the Project.

Stynth

Server Admin

When Stynth discovered Jelle’s Marble Runs in December of 2017, Team Momo’s narrative of pushing through adversity inspired him to become a fan of both the team and the channel. As Stynth became involved in the community, he joined the Project Canon initiative, organized by the former JMR Committee, with Mellacus and Novawolf. The project aimed to give every marble team and athlete a narrative and continued inspiring Stynth to focus on world-building. During his time on the Committee, Stynth published a story for every active Marble League team (a “RetRollSpective”) and wrote other articles to expand the narrative of JMR.

Stynth founded Project Marblearth to share his passion for lore writing with the robust community of marble sports fans that welcomed him five years ago. While he wrote many of the articles included within the JMR Expanded Universe, Stynth contends that the stories within them belong to the JMR community. Through Project Marblearth, he is excited to see those stories come together and come to life in new ways.

When he isn’t facilitating lore, Stynth is also a fan joining Time Check in the grandstands to cheer on marble sports athletes!

Edu G. J.

Board Admin

When he discovered marble sports in September of 2019, Edu was impressed by the vibrant colors and the performance of the Raspberry Racers. After a year of growing interest in marbles, JMR, and its lore, he decided to interact with the inner community, which eventually led to a bigger involvement with the channel and his collaboration in the project.

Phoenix

Board Admin

Phoenix discovered the magic of marble sports around 2017, but it was only later on that the intricacies and the community captured them to entirely engage with the Discord community. Enjoying the sports for what they were, Phoenix became a fan of all the teams and their activity on the Discord community was merely the spark to a long-serving passion for getting involved with other fans and finding out about the lore of each team. Initially known in the community for just long paragraphs of “wisdom”, as well as always being there for a random conversation about anything, Phoenix found themselves becoming more and more interested in writing and creativity to do with marbles.

Phoenix joined the Project Marblearth author team in early 2021 after inspiration to share their creative passions and help flesh out the world of Marblearth, while also contributing photography and artwork.

Phoenix also moderates the Marblebase Discord community, and away from a life of marbles, enjoys acting, singing, music, and dancing. They have high hopes for the future of Project Marblearth and are glad to be a part of it on its journey.

Smacg13 first came across marble sports in early 2019 and quickly became a fan of the Green Ducks. In their quest for more information on marbles, they came across the JMR wiki and began to add to it, eventually becoming one of the admins. They mainly use their experience as a chronicler of marble sports to edit articles.

Creative Contributors

Copyeditors check narratives as they are written, ensuring that they fit into the existing canon of Jelle’s Marble Runs and the JMR Expanded Universe. Editors review drafts of articles, proofreading to correct errors in grammar and spelling. Writers author the narratives that thrive within the JMR Expanded Universe, developing stories that connect to the events of Jelle’s Marble Runs.

Bookity

Editor, Designer

When entering the Project Marblearth scene, Bookity came in with only Algodoo as a means of marble-making, and they still use it, for some reason. They look up to Jelle in how those with autism can do amazing things. They go through a world of pain, for they are a Kobalts fan. Whenever not doing stuff in Marblearth, they like playing the drums, watching streamers, eating cheese, losing in their favorite games, praising Cerulean, and most importantly taking care of their three Toadette plushes. Beware of them, because their idiocy can be contagious.

Nonagon

Writer

Nonagon came across Jelle’s Marble Runs in June 2020 and fell in love with the Crazy Cat’s Eyes the moment they pranced across the balance beam to win the first event of the 2020 Qualifiers with a 407. She has since gone on to write witty commentary on marble sports for the Felynia Times under her marble persona Violet Eye, contributing to the JMR Subreddit as a columnist and later as a moderator. She is excited to contribute to the lore and narratives of the beautiful marbles of JMR as a Marblearth contributor and creative director. When not excessively rewatching Crazy Cat’s Eyes victories in JMR videos, Nonagon can be found playing the oboe, listening to and arranging music, watching Ghibli movies, or asleep.
