Thin Mint Announcer's View • v1.3.7
Anyone can read the score.
You call the story.
It watches the numbers so you can watch the track
The scoreboard already knows what happened. Your job is to know what it means — the run that just flipped the bout, the jammer who’s quietly a point machine, the rematch nobody else in the booth has clocked yet. Those threads are all sitting in the data; they’re just buried under raw numbers while the jam’s already moving on.
Thin Mint Announcer’s View rides the same live feed as the scoreboard and reshapes it for the mic: opponent-aware, history-aware, and readable at a glance from trackside. It surfaces the stat you need the moment it’s worth saying, so you’re not heads-down hunting for it while the pack rolls by — and the quiet stretches between jams have something worth filling them.
