Yep I'm happy with that myself! Although...

 

- If your rank changes while playing in Ranked Battle, you will automatically be returned to the lobby.

 

No! No no no! Luckily it isn't usually hard to find a ranked battle game so you can jump back in fairly quickly but it's still unneccessary imo. I'm also wondering - will this now affect the squad battles etc too?

 

In fact...can you not team up for a squad battle if you and a teammate are different ranks??

It only says you get returned to lobby in Ranked Battle, not Squad Battle.

 

Also, I think blocking progression for S/S+ for Squad Battles is to allow the mixture of ranks in that mode (so people can't "abuse" it by playing with low-ranked friends to get easier opponents).

I'll be up for some Splatting on Thursday. Will we make allowances for those in the MK league? So no Splatting between 8-9pm. Otherwise, I'll be playing as much as I can with you guys.

I don't see any reason for a clash, just leave, join mk league then come back after? depends on how the set up is though... hopefully it allows for that flexibility.

In any case, I would imagine there will be enough of us to have several teams... if there are 2/4 people in the mk league then if they all set up a team that would seem the easiest work around? I guess it's all slightly hypothetical until we get hands on to see how it works out in the wild.

Y'kno, that's actually a very excellent question...it may be that they won't! Be interesting to see how popular everything is if they don't?

I'm with Pestneb as I don't play MK - so I'll just Splat on through with whoever wants to! I'll probably call it a night by 10 or half 10 myself - if I go past the 11pm map change it never works out well for me!

Are people up for splatoon Tuesdays from tomorrow? I presumed NEXT Tuesday after the update.

 

As for Thursday, what time shall we start? Let's get this organised - can't wait! I'll make a list of people confirmed as to be honest I'm sure more than 8 will be up for it. First come first serve!

I can't say firmly yes for Thursday, but I will 80% say yes to it.

Tomorrow I should be around, got to level up my splatfest t-shirt (assuming I'll be using it!)

I probably won't be in for tonight due to working til 9, but I reckon I'd be regular to semi-regular on Tuesdays going forwards. Thursday I can probably knock off early, so I'm really good for any time at all.

 

Forgot to mention earlier - but certainly interested by that gattling gun thingy!

just played one of the most ineffective teams yet.

bluefin depot, I was just in front of their spawn point painting it under the watchful gaze of two snipers... who kept on missing :D it was quite funny, they just sat there trying to shoot me while the rest of my team were painting the whole map : /

tbh I'm trying to pace myself a bit, waiting for those super sea snails to upgrade more equipment. Having said that, I do feel a little bad for the poor guys!

points are points!

 

Think I'll head off once I have 721 more points, call it a night before I look at the clock and realise it's wednesday!

 

1657p... 12 splats.. splatted.. yeah think you may have found a bunch of kids :P Have fun racking up those points though! (anyone wanting to upgrade their splatfest t-shirts is well advised to join DuD :P)

Splatfest changes

- At the conclusion of Splatfest, the win percentage contribution multiplier has been changed from 2x to 4x.

 

I did a quick check to see how this would have changed the past splatfest results. below I list every final score result that would have produced a different winner:

 

 

Yup. Every single one. No change. Most popular still wins with that same exception of roller coasters and water slides.
