This is really strange, hopefully the admins are able to do something about it without too much difficulty...
Appreciate the update, either way, was wondering about this.

Yeah, I just felt like it wasn't 100% one way again, like the last fest, but I know bunnies were definitely a more popular choice for lotsa people, too.
Still better than gear, grub, or "fun" on a stranded island imo, though, lol

Oof, Frye can't catch a break lol. Honestly, I felt like the theme for this fest was pretty alright this time around.
Hope everyone had a fun Splatfest, though, and congrats to team Bear Cubs! ^^
Latest update: Ver. 7.2.0 (Releasing April 17, 2024) The terrain in Undertow Spillway has been changed in all modes. Specifications for some main weapons have changed. | Weapon | Change Details | | --- | --- | | Sploosh-o-matic / Neo Sploosh-o-matic | Slightly expanded shots’ collision detection with players to make it easier to hit opponents. | | Splattershot Pro / Forge Splattershot Pro | Maximum damage has been increased from 42.0 to 45.0. | | Splattershot Nova / Annaki Splattershot Nova | Reduced the shot spread while on land by approximately 8%. | | H-3 Nozzlenose / H-3 Nozzlenose D | Maximum damage has been increased from 41.0 to 44.0. | | Luna Blaster / Luna Blaster Neo / Order Blaster Replica | Increased the radius of the ink splatter at the point of impact with terrain or when detonated midair by approximately 20%. | | S-BLAST '92 / S-BLAST '91 | Increased the radius of the 50.0-damage explosion for long flight-range shots by about 11%. | | Painbrush / Painbrush Nouveau | Increased inking width when holding the ZR Button to ink while moving forward by approximately 18%. Shortened the time before ink starts recovering after holding the ZR Button to ink while moving forward by approximately 1/6th of a second. | | Dapple Dualies / Dapple Dualies Nouveau | Movement speed while firing is now about 5% faster. | Specifications for some special weapons have changed. | Special Weapon | Change Details | | --- | --- | | Big Bubbler | Reduced damage dealt to the inner device and top section by approximately 22%.| | Splattercolor Screen | Increased the damage dealt to opponents who touch the screen from 30.0 to 40.0. | Triple Splashdown | Reduced the amount of time it takes for the player and ink fist to start dropping after they rise up by about 1/6th of a second. Decreased the radius of the 60.0-damage explosion by approximately 13%. | | Kraken Royale | Made it so that Super Jumping to an ally using Kraken Royale will Super Jump to the location where that ally started using Kraken Royale rather than the ally’s current position. | Points required for some special weapons have been changed. | Weapon | Before | After | | --- | --- | --- | | Neo Splash-o-matic | 210 | 200 | | N-ZAP '89 | 180 | 170 | | Carbon Roller | 170 | 160 | | Gold Dynamo Roller | 190 | 180 | | Splat Charger / Order Charger Replica | 200 | 190 | | Splatterscope | 200 190 | | Dapple Dualies | 180 170 | | Splattershot / Hero Shot Replica / Order Shot Replica | 200 | 210 | | Squeezer | 210 | 220 | | Range Blaster | 200 | 210 | | Snipewriter 5H | 200 | 210 | > This update focuses on making changes to multiplayer. > > For some main weapons, we’ve strengthened their unique characteristics or made them easier to handle. > > For the Big Bubbler, we’ve changed it to increase the amount of time you can safely act by making it harder to destroy, even from positions that make it easy to attack the weak points. > > For the Splattercolor Screen, we’ve changed it to make it easier to control opponents’ movements by increasing the risk of touching the screen. > > For the Triple Splashdown, while it is difficult to time its use when opponents actively attempt to shoot the player down, it is extremely powerful when opponents don’t shoot the player down. Therefore, we have simultaneously changed it to make it harder to shoot down and narrowed the area of effect. > > For the Kraken Royale, we changed it to ease an issue where, from the perspective of opposing players, it felt difficult to stop countdown progression when combining Kraken Royale with Super Jump in certain modes. > > We plan on releasing the next update at the end of the current season. It will focus primarily on weapon balance adjustments and adding features for Sizzle Season 2024. > > The next update is also planned to change it so that when a player’s rank in any mode is within rank 1,000 for the previous season’s X Rankings, the rank change due to the season switch will become S+0. > > This change is to alleviate a problem making matchmaking in X Battles difficult immediately after the season switch for players with particularly high X Power.

I was thinking more hard cut-offs for the shading and less gradients, but I don't wanna ask too much more cause I think it's nice, regardless! Will put it up now, and awesome stuff!! ^^
P.s. Thanks again for making such a fun banner for the community and happy to have ya here! 😄

Sorry if this is a little bit too much, just figured it'd be nice to have a little more for ya since I was already making suggestions, but I think the banner's lovely in its own right, too!
Some explanation(s):
- All the hashing is just some subtle shading, pretty much
- All the red is some edits going top-down, left to right:
- Make the clouds more definitive and in 3's to make them seem a little more natural
- With some mild shading that follows the "height" subtly of the top of the cloud
- Make the c/splatoon part more wavy in the water and leaning only slightly towards "splatoon", in the air
- Or just putting it all in the air after moving the characters a little, too, potentially
- Make the boat in the background a little more transparent and maybe move it around some after editing the text
- Push the shoreline downward so it takes up a little less real estate and looks flatter to appear more like it continues outside of the frame
- Also makes the eye more drawn towards the art and adds some flow to the pic too
- Move the left character to the right to fit a little more text; and potentially move the island right, too, so that it feels like it's cut off to the right
- Squeezing the left character's arm in a little since it seems a little too oval-y, to me
- And maybe changing the receiving end to a squid/octopus so it feels a little more blobby/shapey and pointed (and fun way to show a mechanic? haha)
- Make the clouds more definitive and in 3's to make them seem a little more natural
Either way, I think it's super cool what you've done so far and I'm mighty looking forward to what you can do in the future, too! :D
Edit: forgot to mention also making the waves come out from the shore lines a little more (in sets of odd numbers for that made-in-nature aesthetic!), with some foam/reflective, white coloring to them, too, potentially. 👍

Oh, I love the idea/aesthetic! Very cute and bright haha! Appreciate the effort ya put into it!
I wanna suggest some changes I think might be nice to incorporate before adding it right away, but will try and put some work into it and send them in a bit.
Either way, cool stuff! :D

Whoops, thought these were pinned already!
Either way, congratulations to Team Keyboard and hope everyone had a fun splatfest! :D
Just wanted to give a small update, since lemmy.world's updated to 0.19.x, it looks like the bot's running into some issues now! I'll need to see if I can get it fixed, but currently if you don't see any new posts from it, that's probably why. Should hopefully have it working again, soon enough, though!

I wish I knew if there were a way to ping people on lemmy, too...I guess it is still beta.
I know this probably wouldn't work: /c/carp4lemmy, just links you to my profile...
Oh well, for now, seems like it's just DM's, if needed 🤷

Just wanted to make a short announcement about pausing the bot's SplatNet/Daily Drop posts, for now. In spite of the original poll results, it seems like these posts have fallen out of popularity and are causing the sub to get spammed up a tiny bit. Based on a suggestion in one of the posts, I wanted to see if I could congregate the posts into a single one to try and reduce the spam a little bit, but I haven't really been able to find the time to work on that. Always down to hear everyone's thoughts and input on what they'd like from the community, though, and hope everyone's having a super fresh Drizzle Season, so far!

Wow, a lot's definitely happened over the past month-ish since this place was started up! We've gathered 500+ (505 right now) members here, already! I love seeing your guys' posts and really appreciate everyone for participating and helping this place get to where it is! We might still be considered a fraction of some of the larger spots that've taken a bit more time to grow and get where they are right now, but it's still insane to me how rapidly everything's been changing and improving (plus you're all definitely a pretty awesome part of the fraction!). Lemmy.World's had to experience some growing pains, too, having to deal with all the difficulties that come with using a service that's still largely in alpha/beta , and even being attacked by some bad actors a few times, but still pulling through it all and helping this place continue to exist! Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to everyone for being here and being apart of the community and I hope that I, and anyone who may be on-boarded in the near future, can continue to strive for and create a chill spot for you to hang out and connect over the funny squid game! ::: spoiler Have an awesome day and stay fresh!  ::: -Carp
