I'm not too excited, but I guess it could have been much, much worse.

Props for making something we can relate to Halloween, but I feel like this discussion has already been beat to death and I don't care to much about either side.

Pirates are more fun though, guess it's team pirate for me.

Not Halloween themed, but still a great topic! I'm going with the fellow Sea lovers of course!

Are you ready, squids?
Aye-aye, Captain!
I can't hear you!
AYE-AYE, CAPTAIN!

There's Risky Boots and Shantae was temporarily a pirate in The Pirate's Curse and I like that game a lot. I still have not decided yet.

Oh yeah, now I can represent Captain Drake from Advance Wars just as I represented Jess for Team Cars. He is known as Captain Mop in the Japanese version and looked more like a pirate in the first game. There is a reference of him being a pirate once in the localized versions and his Captain Mop costume can be unlocked for all regions in Dual Strike.

I'm loving this theme! It's (kinda) Halloween related, like I wanted. I actually saw someone suggest this a few days ago, I thought it was a cool idea, and they actually did it! I'm happy with this. Team Pirate FOR THE WIN! ;)

Pirates are way more fun and personable than ninjas are.

Oh man, I'm so excited! Not so much for the theme, mind you, as this:

BEE TEE DUBS, beginning with this Splatfest the multiplier for wins has updated from 4 to 6. Good luck, Inklings!
There's going to be so much more potential for turnarounds now!

Like Cars has not a great turnaround with only 4x and a very low popularity.

I was pretty content with the 4x win score. I mean Cars won with a huge population minority. Outside of JP all the other servers have shown a lot of turn arounds by the minority team.

Well damn, 4x felt fine enough.

They need to turn our Splatfest Tee's this time around into actual pirate and Ninja outfits, commit Nintendo

I'm going to throw a curveball at you guys:

If ninjas prove to be more popular then they're going to lose, you know why? (more bad players in the mix)

Check out the results of the previous splatfests.

Team Art (by a very close margin though), nearly every Japanese Splatfest and probably some EU ones that I do not care to look up had both popularity and wins on their side.

I want to be pirates, but I really want to know which will be more popular. Planes was obviously more popular, but this one....eh....

If the space pirates can represent Metroid, that means Shiek from Zelda can represent Ninja's.
Well there is Tetra for the Pirate's side.

And another pirate for our ranking, KING K. ROOL! As Kaptain K. Rool, of course.

So many Miiverse ideas, need to spread them out.
