Worth noting that if the apology for the gem situation involves trading which person is “the bad one,” it’s not really growth. It’s saying “I’m sorry I picked the wrong team”

I still hope the community as a whole stops the whole "bandwagon lets jump 'em" mentality. It never leads to anything good. Think before you act.

I want more people to read this regardless of your feelings on Gem. I have always felt that the narrative Gem's accuser has presented is not wholly true. And with everything we've heard from multiple parties, I stand by that. I have been quiet, not wanting to draw further attention to either party

I would highly encourage ALL people in the Splatoon Community to read this. If you have ever Supported Gem / Squid School in the past and heard about the serious allegations put against him. I personally believe he is innocent and I think its such a shame that this escalated this far.

Please judge this statement by my own words, not what someone else said about it on Twitter. My accusers have spent a long time spreading their narrative and may bomb this with comments to poison the well, while this is my 1st chance to publicly explain what's... docs.google.com/document/d/1...

this is what we were meant to do with the tier maker on sendou youtu.be/OI4UCqwB1rg #compsplatoon

where i create from

Hey yall, can you nominate me for best upset of the year? I am very upsetting and deserve this award, and I think it would be a funny thing to do to popgun. Thanks.

Basically, as long as YOU are the one who made it, then you are an artist Hell, you could put a baby’s crayon scribbles in front of me and I’ll still go “yasss bitch slayyy it looks amazing” I like art a lot and I wish I could put into words how much it means to me

no idea

average minecraft player dies to 0 pigs. maia arson crimew, who has died to 2 pigs, was a statistical outlier and should not have been counted

What a great headline

You've seen our organizers bring you the finest events, but how well do they fare when you flip the script? Meet R4R: An event ft all contributors to the comp community as the players televised to fundraise for @raicestexas.bsky.social mission to help immigrants! youtu.be/NWxEw2QdkS0 #compsplatoon

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being. Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

oops it's her again

genq why do a fair amount of de open skill events not run underground it feels so much better as the team currently going 0-2 knowing that "hey even if we get our ass kicked we'll have 1 more game against the other teams who had that happen to them too" #compsplatoon

I'm old. If you're not, listen to this. Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder. Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever. It's literally never been more important.

Can this be a rule in western tournaments

Sometimes a girl just wants to be folded up into an 8-dimensional torus, ya know?

has anyone tried having a team of 4 people intentionally clipfarming, surely if you have everyone ego playing youll get better results #compsplatoon #highdivsplatoon #hyperdive

If you see this, post your getaway vehicle

It’s her again #splatoon #hatsunemiku

Using my artistic powers for BULSHIIIIIT #splatoon

How many Splatoon players does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one, but they have to win Koshien with it. That way, the devs will finally see the lightbulb problem and fix it

IMPORTANT A new scam is going around where you'll be walking down the street and there will be a big red X painted on the sidewalk. DO NOT STAND ON THE X!!! If you do, a grand piano will fall on your head!!! This happened to a friend of mine and his teeth were piano keys for weeks! BE SAFE!!!

they should give me access to the Risk of Rain 2 DLC early. as a peace offering to the LGBT community.

‘The Owl House’ creator Dana Terrace responds to Disney+ funding AI-generated short form content in new tweet: “Unsubscribe from Disney+. Pirate Owl House. I don’t care. Fuck gen AI.”

Being a real community is incompatible with this "actually you don't owe anyone anything" mindset that is so trendy these days. Sure, you don't have to play with anyone you don't want! You have that choice! But that choice directly contributes to stagnation in the scene.

10/10 take. No notes.

I think Splatoon (and other team games with small communities) are in interesting positions as esports I think the social dynamics play differently when your friends will always be competitors (1v1 games like smash/pkmn) vs when they are explicitly teammates It's gonna influences how groups behave

I'm not an event organizer. I come late to every occasion and my calendar is such a mess I can hardly organize myself. I'm not a presenter. I often struggle with words, stuttering and talking in front of people. But one thing I do have is passion.

Don’t make me tap the sign.

garama!

A glorious weekend comes to an end. Oktofest was an absolute blast! ❤️ #oktofest

@oktofestspl.bsky.social Smallfry wants to let you know that Oktofest was an absolute blast and a huge THANK YOU to all the TOs who did their best while always having a smile on their faces - you brought Splatoon to Germany - how crazy is that?! 🤩

boy if only i was good enough to apply my own advice itd be so over

As a reminder from someone who drinks alcohol, and generally enjoys it: If someone does NOT specifically ask for a drink, do NOT get them one. Do not surprise. Do not goad. Do not force.

I would laugh if this wasn't so true 😭

We as a community should take Series/Weapon power more seriously. #CompSplatoon
