History

Since being founded in 2008, the Whitsunday Miners have played in the Queensland State League, although success hasn't been strong for them, having two shaky seasons since their foundation. In the 2008 QSL competition, The Miners finished 9th out of 10 teams, finishing one point behind Logan United and just above Bundaberg Spirit.[1] In the 2009 season they once more failed to make an impact on a longer season, finishing 10th out of 11, with Bundaberg Spirit finishing below them once more.

In the 2011 QSL season, the Miners have progressed to Round 2 of the QSL Finals after finishing third overall behind Sunshine Coast and Brisbane Strikers. The Whitsunday Miners knocked out Gold Coast Stars in 3–1 win at the new Mackay Stadium and now look to the Far North Queensland Bulls to play for a spot in the final.[2]

gollark: I should probably fix it to use modern™ asynchronous IO things on the backend, and to incorporate lessons from SPUDNET like "actually doing autoreconnect at all".
gollark: It was mostly used by the older node.js server I think?
gollark: I don't. I forgot I added that, actually.
gollark: There is, similarly to with modems and with rednet in practice, no unique sender identification.
gollark: It doesn't use UUIDs anywhere, no.
