Topic: Splatoon 3

@JadeKitsune What do you mean by "top three"? I don't know what achievement you're referring to.

@WoomyNNYes At the end of each Big Run event, exclusive locker decorations are awarded based on the highest team-wide Golden Egg total the player achieved in any one shift. This score is ranked relative to the high scores of all participating players, with different decorations awarded to players whose high score is in the top 5%, top 20%, or top 50% of scores. Players not in the top 50% still receive a basic version of the decoration.

Finished up with a total of 113 eggs this time round! Had a pretty fun time overall, even if I did manage to get some of the worst weapon combinations known to man (I got Squeezer, Dynamo, 96 and Nautilus around 5 times each and quite frankly wanted to evaporate into nothingness), and Horrorboros especially was a real highlight: terrifying and majestic in equal measure

Excited for Horrorboros to become available in the regular rotation and can't wait for the next event to roll around!

Congratulations on driving the Salmonids back to the sea, where those filthy savages belong!

Well, I wasn’t ever able to break my 123 egg count, but that’s still a pretty solid number overall I think. I really liked fighting the Horrorboros, and I look forward to more Boss Salmonids being added in the future.

@Dev9417 There are actually 8 seasons, but their will seemingly be 7 big runs as there are 7 rings, so therefore 7 King Salmonid.

Also was not able to get even past 100 as I played last minute for an hour.

Glad I got a silver salmon run badge and horrorboros statue for the 130 eggs, since I got bronze from the last big run, just missing silver by 4 eggs. My top egg counts this time were 117, 125, and 130.

Surprisingly, or maybe not surprisingly, the Hazco pool was noticeably worse today/sunday. It was virtually all newbs today.

For fun, I tried some random pool names today, like "EVP" (for eggsecutive vp), "lets go", and "butts", but never found other players.

The best username I saw during big run was "gay & tired". Oh, and "tbag".

@Dev9417 I recall Nintendo or squid research lab saying the king salmonid will be part of the weapons rotation schedule. I haven't looked to see if they've done it now that a new shift started.

Woo, I made it!

With both MK8 Deluxe DLC wave 4 and FE Engage DLC wave 3 confirmed for this week rather than later in March or April, I'm more convinced Side Order will release May 31st rather than August 31st. It does feel like all the known DLC except MK8 Deluxe DLC wave 6 will be released by the end of June.

Finally, I got my golden BigRun badge.
I got lucky and got a 142 highscore. Couldn't get past 139 for the rest of the time. I would have got furious if I missed the top 5% this close again! 😂

I liked the Inkblot Art Academy map for Big Run, but I think some things were harder mainly because there were so many new players in Big Run that don't have experience with Salmon Run.

@JadeKitsune's pic raises a question for me. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FqguCQfacAEVyjd.jpg (site doesn't allow it to embed)

The horrorboros statue pic was green in the news, like the other statues in the Salmon Run shop. But the horrorboros statue is NOT green in our lockers; It's bronze, silver, or gold. If we buy the green statues in the Salmon Run shop, are they that dumb green in our locker? The whole reason I've never bought a Salmon Run statue is because they are that baffling hideous green.

@WoomyNNYes
I think you get the green one if you are below 50%? But don't quote me on that.

@WoomyNNYes 😑 Let me repeat what I told you in the last page:

“At the end of each Big Run event, exclusive locker decorations are awarded based on the highest team-wide Golden Egg total the player achieved in any one shift. This score is ranked relative to the high scores of all participating players, with different decorations awarded to players whose high score is in the top 5%, top 20%, or top 50% of scores. Players not in the top 50% still receive a basic version of the decoration.”

In other words, players not in the top 50% receive a green version of the decoration.

In fact, here's my award for participating in the FIRST Big Run last year:

Sigh...Everyone missed my point.

Forgive me if my last post was confusing. I shouldn't have used JadeKitsune's pic, because that only confused things.

Here's my question: The regular Salmon Run shop has had those green statues since the game's launch. Are they still green when you put them in your locker? I only ask because that solid green color looks so ridiculous, and so awful (opinion), and I've never seen the regular salmon run store statues in anyones locker (that I'm aware of).

@JadeKitsune Ahhhh, forgive me<3 I knew the big run statue would be gold/silver/bronze as per our reward level depending on our highest egg count. I just didn't understand what you meant when you said winning the "top three". Sorry about the confusion and making you answer that again. No more explaining needed.😁

I just noticed at the result screen in Salmon Run(the one with the yellow boxes), the number font showing your quota is much smaller in the English version, compared to the Japanese/German version. Why is that? When I saw it, I thought they had photoshopped it or something. 😅

@WoomyNNYes I'm pretty sure the Salmon statues you can purchase with scales can only be green, you can't change their color.
I actually like the green, but I'll admit I would have preferred a nice bronze or some white instead. Oh well

@Budda Wait, aren't you talking about the Big Run results screen? For some reason the numbers seemed smaller than in regular SR, though I haven't played any this season.
Maybe they changed them? I haven't tried other languages so maybe it's just in english (switching from English to French is weirdly disturbing haha)

@GreenTea
Oh. So it's only in Big Run? That makes sense. That's why it confused me. 😅
It has its regular size in the JP/Ger. one in Big Run. What a weird decision.

@Budda They probably shrinked them in case a team managed to get more than 100 eggs in a wave. Which sounds inconceivable to me, but I guess it could happen

@WoomyNNYes Huh, whenever I have to repeat an explanation to someone, they usually get mad at me. You're the first to do the opposite.
