omitting a few cheaper "i just wrote something i thought would be funny silly haha" posts

august 26, 2022:

first ever plaza post, for the testfire fest!

september 11-16, 2022:


while i was in-between my previous big major special interest in caves of qud and my current big major special interest in splatoon i just put chute crabs in my plaza posts. there were a few more i won't post to avoid getting repetitive (one was just the second image here but with "TEAM GEAR but I don't wanna erase my crabs yet" written next to them)

september 22, 2022:

first attempt at like, actually drawing via the post maker

october 6, 2022:

one of a few qud jokes. i made ORCA way too big and the text way too small

october 16, 2022:

my contribution to the "full of [blank]" plaza meme at the time and another attempt at Actually Drawing. instantly didn't like it that much after i posted it... but hey

november 4, 2022:

for the pokemon fest (i was team water). to quote my followup tweets when i posted it:
"hey isn’t water lethal for cephalings" see my octosona here is immune until they look downa nd[sic] realize theyre in water. once they do so they’ll be splatted instantly. it’s like gravity in cartoons.
"Its Actually That Deep" you hear me say moments before i get osmosis’d to death


november 24, 2022:

another qud joke based on that "my animal" plaza meme. does anyone know what was up with that what was that creature

december 10, 2022:

big run :)

december 19, 2022:

last of the qud jokes and the one i'm most proud of still (don't look too close at ORCA though). octoling neo agent 3 depicted here is my neo3 oc but she does kinda just look like a generic octoling neo3 at this scale

august 12, 2023 (i kinda didn't realize how many of my posts were from 2022 compared to any time after until making this thread, oops):

money/fame/love fest. "but did you tell them--" love lost so it doesn't matter

october 13, 2023:


1 of 2 for splatoween. i said i wasn't gonna put my "this is just words" posts here but i put EFFORT into that ooze-dropping effect. so it goes here. 😌

october 29, 2023:

ooh, this one's vertical! 2 of 2 for splatoween. Claude René Duplantier Squidry.

december 26, 2023:

🎵 success is for capitalists, so every time we fail it's basically praxis 🎶
friendly advice for christmas newbies, feat. another (non-agent) oc of mine who would definitely say this in-universe

...and that's all for now! maybe i'll keep this thread updated if i ever draw a post again

Squidry lives in my heart forever. Anyway I love your art and the silly little things you put into the plaza,,,Makes me happy 8)

Maybe I should finally actually make plaza posts. Much to consider

lissa if you make Posts i’ll actually use twitter for more than two seconds and game the Posting algorithm by forcing everyone to look at your Posts

lol, last one is my favorite. These are neat though! I gave up on making plaza posts figuring no one would see them anyway (especially since I don't use any social media and basically only had a throwaway twitter account for making posts to begin with, lol)

ty!!

that's fair honestly, i kinda have to go into this knowing that since i don't have a huge twitter following in part because Putting Myself Out There on there scares me lol i'm probably not gonna be in too many folks' plazas. i try to make posts for their own sake - i find the plaza post editor to be a fun way to play with using negative space, since you're bound to just the two colors. and if i want anyone to see them i can send them to my friends (or post them here now). i know that "just make art for you, don't worry about external validation!" is WAY easier said than done though 😅

i've been 'sevenleaf♪' for a while but that post might've been from when my splashtag still said clover (possibly with a capital C), lol. i play as a masc octoling if that helps

but i couldn't have been the only one to make that particular joke, right? i'm not original or anything

I believe I played against you once, does Spamton or even Peppino ring a bell?

so i made this post and proceeded not to make Posts for another month and a half. may 30, 2024:

wanted to get one more thing out before twitter integration died, and also practice drawing on the post maker more. characters here are my oc-ified agent 8 (in the back) and neo agent 3 (in front, the same one as in that other post)

AYO? maybe i’ve been too pessimistic about this whole plaza post visibility thing lol

(though some in-game feedback telling me my posts aren’t just going into the void would be nice…..)
ok, ok, you may see some bad drawings from the person Spamton or Peppino (I usually change my name so I don't get fren requests because I am starting to get a little bit paranoid with it) just know that that is me

From what I've experienced, it only takes about three reactions on Twitter for a post to get in. It only takes one reaction if no one's really posting that day.

Sometimes Nintendo also appears to intervene. If they wanna show something off, they'll lock it in. During the greetings Splatfest, my stuff was locked in twice even though I only got one like on both. That was during the time I tried out Splatoon NA. Goes to show ya', it's worth trying to get in!

So yeah, you draw really nice stuff, so please keep posting! I love what you drew this time, too! :D

huh! yeah i’m like by no means popular on twitter, but i have a circle of mutuals over there who tend to like/sometimes retweet my plaza posts, so if it really only takes a few reactions i guess i have been way too pessimistic. seeing the same set of people in the plaza virtually all the time gave me the impression you had to be like, twitter famous or wildly lucky to be seen in other people’s plazas

and thank you!! i feel like i’m finally getting the hang of using the limited tools the post feature gives me, so i definitely wanna draw posts more often
