Why is Tristrike Tuesday so popular when it runs in the same timeslot as an uncapped tourney? I'm genuinely curious about this one, since it's skill capped at d3 and there was a whole bit for a while about people wanting less skill caps for the sake of improvement or something

are there any good places aside from bluesky where I can sort of poll/ask other players questions? bsky feels a bit low on reach sometimes (and I am not using bird app sorry ty)

@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.

Not to beat a dead 🐴 but shadowind's post asking whether there's gatekeeping in comp splatoon getting a vast spectrum of replies from different skill levels is interesting to me
It feels like the idea should be split, is the gate at scrimming? Resource/guides? +? All completely different issues

Does anyone know someone with some fluency in Japanese? I found an interesting baseline guide written by a 3k xp jp wiper player and think it would be beneficial to have a translation that isn't just machine translated

Do people strongly prefer vc for 8s or don't mind no vc/don't care?

(doesn't seem that bsky has polls yet, hmm)

Not very pretty but tasty things today, congee (it is cold outside) and oatmeal lace cookies
The lace cookies were very weird to make, effectively caramel with oats and a bit of flour then baked for a few minutes

I could write a dissertation about Splatoon improvement from a coaching perspective, but instead of focusing on that, I want to talk about my journey as a player, which I don't speak to much anymore.

I've never felt as competent, coordinated, and mechanically sharp as I did on my first team. 🧵

really what I think needs to happen is people need to learn how to learn from the resources they have, having them pointed out to them is great but it has to be assumed that at least some people already know x rank exists obviously but not how to review their or others' play etc
