For the next few days, I will be sharing some fun facts about some of the statistics for the Top 8 Teams in the Splatoon 3 NA League!

1) fofofo has played in most number of games (86) against any of the Top 8 teams! They are 56-30 in all games, with RM being their best mode at a win rate of 73%

Race to Crown has now completed 17 of 24 tournaments this season. With the points from yesterday’s championship, Lobster has secured his spot for next year’s AREA CUP Crown with 193 points.

This is the earliest qualification ever—an absolute monster. Actual points in the thread.

Gungame would be so interesting in Splatoon, though I gotta wonder what the last stage would be. Reeflux? Clash?

With the Splatoon 3 NA League playoffs happening in two weeks, I created a dashboard that analyzes statistics for all teams in the Top 8 playoffs for head-to-head matches!

You can find and interact with the dashboard here:

Watching a guy cheat on his Econ 101 quiz with ChatGPT at a fancy restaurant with his laptop out, sitting with his family ignoring them.

Incredible.

One of the neat things about having taken the effort to do this major migration is that I have access to a live dashboard on the statistics of how 8s is looking.

It takes on average 30 minutes to fill an 8s lobby and it'll run for an hour and 23 minutes :D

@joythedatanerd.bsky.social and I have just launched an 8s bot!

It streamlines the process of 8s by automatically managing members, text and voice channels, and the events lifecycle.

It also provides a player queue, role selections, and utility commands.

After three weeks of hard work I’ve migrated splat.top to a much more flexible framework.

What does this mean? If you have a discord bot and you want it to stay online 24/7 and super easy to update, let me know!

Excalibur’s 8s bot is the first such bot hosted on it, thanks to @hfcred.dev the goat!

You know, thinking about it, 67 is a much less annoying meme to older people than I’m sure “the cake is a lie” was.

I can’t imagine how incomprehensible it was for young people to call every cake a lie

Splatoon is weird in that it's the fastest game that the market can tolerate, and I'm partially convinced that the market only really tolerates it because it's a Nintendo IP.

RIP Quake Live, gone too soon but never forgotten
something i think we don't recognize enough is how genuinely difficult splatoon is

like. it is the fastest paced shooter game out there, with the most unique movement mechanics, and you've either got MOTION CONTROLS or sticks without aim assist

Reading my old blogs makes me wanna write again.

Feels odd though, I only want to explore topics that interest me and tear them apart to put them back together. Like how odd it is to be a programmer in a field of artists and rarely be considered a “creative.”

I’ve raised my kid entirely on Spanish, as little English as possible, and today he said “Guau” instead of “Wow”

I’m incredibly proud

Reading takes by non-systems type people on how player rankings should work is as painful as reading takes by STEM bros about how modern art is pointless and dumb. Both have no experience with the subject but are utterly convinced that the problem is trivial and the creators are morons

Update: Now everyone (up to high-level) can get the chance to scrim up!

I'm hoping this and the QoL changes encourage more people to join the server and scrim down as well :)

One of Facebook's worst features is "Memories" because it consistently gives me new situations to cringe over. Today I discovered yet another situation where I rejected a girl without even realizing it. Incredible stuff, really. I can see why my now wife had to ask me out lmao

I have no idea why this post took off with the developer community
As part of the effort to make splat.top easier to maintain, it’s now moved to ArgoCD! It looks so nice looking at my website all laid out like this :D

Kinda wonder how chaotic it would be for a server (like the 8s server) to grant “credits” if you play a match in the tier below, and playing a match in the tier above would cost credits. So if you’re T1 and wanna play a TX match, you have to have at least one credit from playing a T2 match.

Did my first scrim session with the folks here.

Was an eye opening experience & I learned a lot about the things I need to improve upon.

Highly recommend this server to anyone in the low level looking to push midlevel.
Now live: discord.gg/FVjEenQpsU

we'll see how this works out, and it's also open to people around mid-level who want to help, as we have a role for you :)

For SQ map list how important it is that it balances out the maps at map list stage.

Like I could balance out so that both teams get equal amount of "votes" and then it might be that the end result favors one team over other. This just would be an easy fix for the "default maps" problem

Thoughts?
