Any one have ideas for gear or weapon sets that fit the theme for either side? First thing that came to mind for me was sloshers as early bird weapons. Dumping water/ink on someone to wake them.

Haha, I'm not in NA but I like that idea. As for gear sets - for Night Owls, I'd think of :head_met002:, as they seem like they provide infra-red vision and besides, they're kind of reminiscent of owls themselves. I've always thought that :clothes_shirt013: and :clothes_shirt007: look like pyjama tops, so that could also work for that team. Then :shoes_slp000::shoes_slp001::shoes_slp002: fairly closely resemble slippers which one would wear late at night. And and and, for weapons - :wst_shot_expshort00: (or Neo, probably better for TW). Luna! Moon! Night!

Early Birds could go for a 'morning run' theme - something like :head_hbd004::clothes_tes003::shoes_sht003:?

Since I believe that Night owl team will get the closest-to-batman-black dark blue ink from. . .
the bottom right pair
The choice is kinda obvious

We'll obviously lose due to popularity though.

Oh yeah, the Luna Blasters! Completely overlooked those. Haven't used either in forever. And some of the buttoned long sleeves can pass for pajama tops.

Hmm... if I'm sticking with a theme, looks like there's a chance I might wind up joining Team Early Bird since they give me more thematic options to play with.

I have legit not seen a single Early Bird post in my plaza yet nor seen anyone wearing the shirt yet. o_O I've seen a post comparing them to Team Ninja's popularity but right now, I think they might beat Team Ninja by a landslide with how Miiverse plaza posts are going. xD

I've only seen Night Owl shirts, comments, pictures, and ONE person with a "#EARLYBIRB" art comment. Yes, "earlybirb"

That's a tumblr thing. Tumblr is obsessed with birds which of course includes owls. They call them birbs for some reason.

Tumblr is a whole other part of the internet. They are obsessed with reptiles like lizards too.

I'll pick the one with fewer members to try to even things out. Last time I spent ages in queue as team patrick, to eventually be paired against another team patrick. Seems like Night Owl is the winner so far so I'll probably pick Early Bird

Well as Splatfest is 24hrs of night in Inkopolis Night Owls really need to win this to not be shown up by the Day Birds :P. The colour scheme looks really nice for this Splatfest, but the same can't be said for the artwork, both of those are so creepy. As for me, I'd go Night Owl as I really can't wake up in the morning xD. However, I'm on the PAL version of the game so this won't be my Splatfest. Speaking of which, if we're back to one every 3 weeks, ours should be announced next Saturday.

So many people dislike pineapples? And pineapples on pizza?! My poor heart! I think I need to sit down.

Fascinating. The things you learn about tumblr when it's not someone whining yet again "I hate tumblr because of 'x' group/subculture that calls out my bs/thinks differently than me!"

One day I'll bother to join instead of being a constant, lurking tourist.

I joined but only follow friends who don't reblog SJW stuff and fanartists who also don't reblog SJW stuff. Whether they are right or not, I prefer not seeing it.

Haven't been on today but I'm sure players are now starting to wear their shirts. Is everyone's plazas still Night Owl lopsided?

When I put on my early bid shirt I was with a lobby, yes 7 other players wearing Night Owl Shirts. My team booyah'ed me and kept shooting me and blocking my shots...
