  3. Pixel Bandits UCP Football League
    1. PSBF Pendragon has been sharing this non-canon background simulation for Elite, with football teams spread throughout our galaxy. Each team in the UCP (Unofficial, Completely Pointless) League has their own made up stats and named players, with performance ratings and goals etc. tracked from week to week. All the stats were generated through dice throws, and the simulator basically runs the matches so even he has no idea who’s going to end up on top.
