Yes, this is real.

How the gently caress is this a Splatfest?

One is objectively correct. The other is just a mistake people make and are too lazy to fix.

...also wtf art are people supposed to make for this Splatfest? What an awful theme.

Pearl: Yo Marina. What's the Splatfest theme
this time?

Marina: Haaaaah... I'm too nervous to look.
You do it.

Pearl: Fine. The Splatfest theme is...
WHAT?

Marina: What is it, Pearlie? What's the theme?!
TELL MEEEEE!

Pearl: OK, here it comes...

Marina: *gulp*

Pearl: The splatfest theme is...

Marina: It's the age-old debate: which way
round should the toilet roll hang?!

Pearl: Huh? What kind of question is that?
There's legit only one right way!

Pearl: I mean, who even hangs it behind the roll?
Are they TRYING to be awkward?

Marina: Uh, excuse me? I think you'll find it
looks neater and is far safer, Pearl.

Marina: Dangling it front like that is just asking
for a cat to unroll it all over the floor.

Pearl: ...You think Judd could be bothered to
unravel a whole toilet roll? Really?

Marina: Maybe not Judd... But what about
Li'l Judd? I'm not sure I trust him.

Marina: That sweet angelic smile unnerves me.
It's always the cute ones, you know...

Pearl: Sure, but, uh...have you SEEN Li'l Judd?
I bet he couldn't even reach the roll!

Marina: Maybe, maybe not. I'm just not willing
to take THAT particular risk.

Pearl: Fine, fine. Whatever makes you happy.
But your raging paranoia aside...

Pearl: There's no denying that front-rolling is
the most natural choice is all areas.

Pearl: When's the last time anyone tried to ink
their turf rolling backwards, huh?

Pearl: Speaking of, just wait! My team's gonna
roller all over yours! Literally!

Marina: Uh huh, wanna bet? I know I'm not
alone in being right about this!

Marina: So folks, hurry on down to the
Splatfest terminal and pick a side!

If so, we can guess who's getting the Halloween themed Splatfest.

That cannot be a thing.

Also this will truly test if people just vote due to preferring Marina over Pearl or vice versa, because as I'm sure we all agree there is only one right way to do it (front for life).

I'd rather have the roll loose and just hanging out in a basket than back.

I dunno why backroll toilet paper can't be hosed with by cats but that just seems like another reason why dogs won the first Splatfest.

Cats, like back rolled toilet paper, do not belong in the civilized world.

I believe the correct answer to this debate is and has always been "Just use the goddamn toilet paper and quit being a baby about it, no one cares." :colbert:

That said, my vote goes to Pearl because I always seem to wind up on the opposite team of Jonas. And that team usually wins.

Why do they need to kick people out of Salmon Run groups because maps in stuff they're not playing changed. so dumb

Because they DO change on the same rotation, just not as regularly. It's a clean simple check in the code so it's hard to bug out.

October's Salmon Run gear is showing up in SplatNet 2, even though the current Salmon Run session will continue to offer September's gear. Spoilered because I don't know how anal people will be about it:

Seriously, when the hell is Mr. Grizz going to provide shoes?


Also, the original SplatNet will close on the 30th of September, so go make the most of it:

Dear people who love grabbing the Rainmaker, stop taking the same heavily guarded route over and over again, and expecting things to work out differently! If that route is heavily guarded, that means there's an alternate route that you can take because no one is there and you can score points a lot more easily that way! (Unless the map is Inkblot, which pretty much has only one route.) Also, please stop picking it up when we don't have the advantage. The Rainmaker is not your friend. It hates you, and touching it makes you nothing more than a dead man walking, and turns the match into a 3v4 because that thing is that awful at being a weapon.
