@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.

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

just 1am angsting but it feels so statistically improbable that the amount of time and effort I put into improving still isn't moving the needle and I just don't understand why. I'm frustrated on my own behalf and on behalf of everyone who's invested time and energy into helping me over the years.

hey for everyone reading this who is upset about the state of the splatoon community, try going to a LAN. your faith will be restored immediately

I've had some particularly memorable soloq games the past few days and the thing they had in common was that I felt like I had a psychic connection to my teammates somehow. It was so magical.

I wonder how much of that potential is just mental from my side & if it's something can be cultivated.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

lol according to this I was playing splatoon 3 two days before its release day. The day before I can maybe blame timezone weirdness but two days? just weird. curious if anyone has similar oddities in their history.

I've been swapping a lot between dapple and tetra lately; I'm always so hesitant to swap because my muscle memory doesn't adapt quickly but I also feel like it's been good for my learning process because it forbids me from falling into habit ruts during long sessions; I have to actually think.

I've kind of been using ZA as a way to get myself to take at least a short break from splatoon but I'm getting so restless already. I feel like splatoon has completely overhauled my tastes in games in general and I just don't have the patience for so much story and running around anymore.

This is such an unapologetically cringe thing to say but if you really like Splatoon OCs/your inksona etc. watching the #S3NAL weekly episodes really feels like they are narrating it in a way that feels in-universe. Like you're watching this from the perspective of an inkfish.

the skill gap between myself and others in my circle is usually a source of motivation but man there are days it just feels like such an unfathomably deep and wide chasm.

but there are days when it won't feel this way. and whatever the 'reality' of the situation is, it doesn't matter. we press on.
