Y'all I got some crazy clips this weekend. Here are two:
Also, even though Team Ninja won, and I now have a previously incomprehensible 88 Super Sea Snails (up from an already crazy 64), my memory was the true loser, as I forgot to scrub my Splatfest Tee and use my remaining Conch Shells... 😔
Hope the fest was good to you all, though; it's onward to Juniors Draft for me!
EDIT: while I'm changing my formatting, I'd figure I'd add that this game just continues to hit me straight in my feels: my parents are returning home from a 10 day vacation tonight, just as the Splatfest is ending, and as the bittersweet Daybreaker Anthem plays in the lobby. So, too, am I moving onward and upward, as the day prior to the tournament next weekend, I go to the DMV and take my learners permit exam for the first time in my life. 🥲
Hello everyone! I’m just popping in to say that I’ve made it past A-, reached A, and am 180 points from A+, all because of a series that had 5 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw, that landed me 308 points when all was said and done. So proud of myself right now...
The Swim It to Win It and Work the Angles challenges seem interesting. I would assume that the former will be like the extreme jump one, but for swim speed, while the latter will probably be like the recent zipcaster one, just with the Angle Shooter/Line Marker.
In my own news, I may have dropped from Juniors Draft, but this weekend was not completely without achievement: last night, I posted my free agent post in a handful of the appropriate Discord servers, and this evening, I got my first response! Not only do I seem to be getting along with the team's co-captain so far, I also should be having a tryout sometime this week! So exciting!
@AccessibleDaydream Sadly, no, I went 2-3 and lost. Oh, well. I am close again now. That is cool that you are trying to find a team! Maybe we should queue up at some point in Open just to try it
I've seen something so interesting recently, people who have the Tableturf battle 999 rank badge!! I've only seen that badge 5 times, so I wonder how many people have it?
although my pfp is no longer a potato I am and will forever be potato-man!!!!
@Potato-man I’m pretty sure some people found ways to automate the Tableturf grind. But for the people who got it legitimately… that’s insane (I’m personally at Rank 55 and have played hundreds of matches)

@CaleBoi25 2-3 is such a bummer. I had that happen to me a few times in going from B+ to A-, and it’s really easy to let it get you down, so I’m glad that you’re keeping your head up. I’ve seen you online a few times recently, and, yeah, it would be fun to try open sometime. If you’d like, you could add me on Discord to discuss further!
@Potato-man I think I’m level 12 or 13 in Tableturf? I tried it a few months ago, but I’ve just not been able to get into it, unfortunately. It’s so complicated, in a way that multiplayer is just not. Glad you’re enjoying it though, and same for you, @SplatRay001.
Since my last post here on the forum, I actually got a second response to my free agent post, which is exciting. While I didn’t have formal tryouts yesterday with the first team (those will be happening tomorrow), I did get some valuable feedback, and it was right in line with what my coach said: I have potential, and with the right team, support, and structure, I have the potential to go far.
Strangely enough, I seem to remember being told that nearly word for word back in public school…
Finally, I have the second tryout at some point on Friday, and I feel like I might have a better chance of making that team, but I don’t know for sure since I believe someone else is also trying out. I’ve also just been burnt out this week. Other than not getting enough sleep, I think I might have just been doing too much, but it’s okay, because it usually happens.
@AccessibleDaydream Unfortunately I do not have Discord. But nonetheless I am sure we can find a way to get online together! Hopefully your tryouts go well!
@CaleBoi25 Thank you! The first tryout went well, I think. They said I should know by practice next Tuesday if I made the team or not. It seemed like they really enjoyed having me around, separately from the team tryout, so maybe it’ll end up with me being selected, I don’t know. I believe I’ve been invited to Eggstra Work this weekend at least.
As for the other team, those tryouts are tomorrow at this point, so I’ll see how it goes.
