Topic: Splatoon - OT

Geez. I just won an overtime match that lasted for five minutes (overtime)

Woohoo! Remember how I lamented about the reroll probabilites a few weeks ago?
Well, look what Spyke just gave me:

BTW how do I embed a post? I found an article stating 'Just open the web version of Miiverse, select a post and then click on "Embed this Post" to obtain the HTML code for embedding on your web page.', but I can't find that option anywhere...

@TingLz: Wow, that's insane. I just saw you were online on my Wii U, care to squad up?

@shani on the mobile version for me at least, it is right under the "share this post" with Twitter, Google+, etc.

I'll test it out
<div class="miiverse-post" lang="ja" data-miiverse-cite="https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKFOG3JtJQ" data-miiverse-embedded-version="1"><noscript>

<a class="miiverse-post-link" href="https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKFOG3JtJQ">View post in Miiverse.</a></noscript></div><script async src="https://miiverse.nintendo.net/js/embedded.min.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

I don't really know how it works though... I believe that before the redesign it would show posts just by putting the link on here.

I actually think I'm done for the day, so maybe later

@yokokazuo: Yeah seems like the redesign screwed that feature up. Hopefully they'll fix it.
EDIT: Lol, now that you mentioned it, I found the embed link under the share options (non-mobile). ^^
@TingLz: No problem. I probably won't be awake later, but some other time then.

Well, it doesn't seem to work on NL anymore, although I'm sure that other users had previously posted embedded Miiverse posts here.
I'll just ask someone from NL if they could a miiverse function like they have here.

Wow, the guys at NL are really fast! After my last post I notified them that the Miiverse links don't get embedded anymore and also suggested to add a BB code like in the link that I provided in my previous post.
About one hour later I got a reply that it's fixed now (as you can see in my other post above), you just post the link and it gets embedded automatically as it was before the NL redesign.
But not only that, they also implemented my suggestion of the BB code, so instead of posting the Miiverse link, you can also do this instead:

"[miiverse]AYIHAAAEAAAOU4W8ZqmedQ[/miiverse]"
(without the quotation marks)

I love Nintendolife!

@yokokazuo

@shani oh, nice! Is there a difference between posting a miiverse link and using BBC code?

@yokokazuo: Nope, it does exactly the same, so it wouldn't have been exactly necessary, but still nice of them to implement it, a sign of courtesy.

@Shani Congrats on the Rerolls! Thinking of Rerolls, I've been messing about with Spyke's rerolls, and accidentally got an absolutely brilliant bit of kit, the Retro Gamer Jersey which has Quick Respawn, plus three Quick Super Jumps, which makes my current kit nearly obsolete. Barring Splatfests of course, where I won't be able to use the jersey... I need a new headgear item now. I don't want to overstack Quick Respawns (The only ability that I seem to have on my decent Headgear). XD

I just had an awesome comeback in Splat Zones! Our team which was still at 100, managed to stop the other team with one point remaining... and then we got a knockout! I love it when that happens, unless you're on the other team, of course.

@TheXReturns: Heh, you just reminded me of this picture I took on Splatoon the other day.

Crazy, eh?

@Blue_Blur I've been on the other team...

@DreamyViridi chain jumpers in tower control are the worst haha

@yokokazuo: Never had to put up with chain jumpers but I've seen videos of it; and it's hilarious... if it's not happening to you anyway... ^^"

@yokokazuo: I've been on the other team too, and it definitely stinks when that happens. I guess that's why you celebrate when you're on the winning side, since that's not always the case.

@DreamyViridi Yeah. XD The RNG seems to like giving me SpawnUps. I have a few with three subs, and a load with two or one. I'm happy with my Spawn speed as it is, I don't want to stack them! I just need to find some headgear without SpawnUps, SwimUps or JumpUps, and then I'm set.

I wouldn't want to be a chain-jumper. I've done my fair share of chain jumps, and been on the receiving end of a fair few too, and I just find it frustrating, boring, and inefficient.

Gosh this seems like such a massive waste to me. Surely it's counter productive to just accept dying instead of buffing yourself to live longer. Even with all these you're better off living that extra bit longer than having to respawn. How fast would this actually make you respawn anyway?

@Plateface: I wouldn't be surprised if you respawned about 2 seconds later with that set up, compared to the 7/8 or so second norm. I like to run a Main and at least 2 Subs of Quick Respawn myself (otherwise I feel it takes forever to come back) but when I saw this; I burst out laughing. XD

@DreamyViridi @Plateface With a full set of Quick Respawns, you get literally no camera time after you've been killed- almost straight back to the plate. It's pretty impressive, but I like one main equivalent, which shaves a considerable amount off. You have enough time to look down and start tapping someone to superjump.

@TheXReturns @DreamyViridi It just seems illogical to me lol, you're going to have less ink, slower recovery times etc, so you're going to die more anyway probably. I suppose they are S+ so it's clearly working for them. Meh. :L
Having a cool looking squid is far more important.

@Plateface It's a roller thing. We go in, splat some squids, get splatted, then want to Stealth Jump back into the fray ASAP. For that reason, SpawnUp is far more useful than JumpUp, as you're able to start the superjump faster.

Using Stealth Jump in this way pushed my game from B to S.

Of course, I still look just as fabulous as you do.

I'd say Abilities have a much stronger effect than they're credited with.
