Topic: Splatoon - OT

@Blue_Blur I see! Makes sense why we couldn't find you. One more game, then I'm out.

Since we have a pass, who is DEMON*PAUL? (Or did they guess?)

I've been getting set up with players who are way better than me this Splatfest. It must be this new Splatfest power system

I noticed that in my hiding place, a random splotch of yellow appeared on the wall beside me when no one was near? Not sure how that happened.

Ah, my hiding spot works every time!

@Vee_Flames I got pushed off when I jumped to you haha

@yokokazuo: that would be me , saw the password , couldn't resist , hope I didn't ruin the game though... anyway I'm up for another private battle if anyone wanna join or create one. Btw feel free to add me .

@Megapokepaul oh ya that's fine. I was just wondering since if it wasn't someone from NL they probably wouldn't have known it was hide and seek.

I'm going off for now, but if you want to add me my NNID is NagoyaKazuo. Or I can add you when I go back on.

Also thanks for the matches everyone!

@yokokazuo: added you !

Anyone's up for private battles ? I'm sick of this splatfest , usually I get to queen , but I don't wanna play turf war anymore.

Ugh. Every Jetpack team I've been on have been complete idiots...

Not enjoying this...

@Megapokepaul: I'm up for some private matches, but we need more squids.

A Japanese beat boxer I'm subscribed to on YouTube made this remix with Senbonzakura and the squid sister's splatfest music. (Called Shiokarabushi in Japanese, I don't remember the English name of it)

@TheXReturns: I'm getting put with some fairly bad Jetpack players as well. I've only just got a win and ranked to Jetpack Defender after 4 battles.

This splatfest's start has been very shaky for me but it gotten a bit better as I got more wins. They certainly made getting to the max splatfest rank quicker. I'm already half way through Champion and it's not even 9pm yet.

@DreamyViridi: It was slower for me.

They must have balanced it so that there is a greater reward for wins, but a smaller reward for losses. It took me forever to get defender considering I only won twice.

I'm a little confused by the current system. There's this Splatfest Power thing, and this "Squid Multiplier" (which look like thisく:ミ x9) thing, but the Splatfest Power you displayed in one screen doesn't seem to match the given when you start a match, and I don't know what the squid icons do, and then you have your original 'Rank' system on top of that, and then there's how the final scores are counted (which I assume is the same and last time)... and... well, I'll look it up again.

The balancing seems a lot tighter though. The matches are all much, much harder.

@Maxz the score that shows up at the start of each match is an average of your team's score. I believe it said something like estimate in the Japanese version. Does it say anything for you?

Also the squid icon with the numbers show how many times that group has played continuously together. (It has to be at least 3 or 4 members. Maybe 2, but I'm not sure)

@yokokazuo: Aah, that would make sense. Does the multiplier actually have any bearing on anything?

And there seems to be a system in place (according to Splatpedia) whereby the player on the team with the highest Splatfest Power gains extra EXP towards their 'Title', but if the whole team wins and loses together, then surely that EXP would go to the same player every single match?

@Maxz I'm not completely sure about how it all works yet myself.
Oh btw what is your splatfest power at and how many points do you gain? I was around 1600 and I would get 6 points for winning and an extra 2 if I covered 400 points of turf.
