But you didn't?
I mean doesn't everyone pick the side they like the best?... or does everyone just choose marie because she is "the better sister".

I really wish there was a way to get snails besides splatfest. If I never participated in one ever again I'd be completely cool with it...except I need snails.

24 hours of the same three maps, turf war, same song, and not being able to play with my friends. What could be better?!

I was actually in a lobby with @LittleSoundDJ on team nice and I was like, "finally, we'll win some matches." Then we lost connection. I honestly can't stand splatfest anymore.

you do know you can still do private battles during splatfest, right?
I really do wish the maps rotated instead of the same for 24 hours.

anyone else wish they had done more songs/themes for splatfest? hearing the same thing over and over again gets old
I wish but it looks like they're done adding new music/remixes to the game. Heck they made new remixes for their new trailers but still didn't put them in the game. :/

Welp, because Team Nice lost, that makes me 5-4 when it comes to Splatfest (it could be worse). I'm starting to feel sorry for Marie because she has only won 2 Splatfests out of 9 in NA.
glad to know that someone has the same record as me lol

I called it. Obviously this is just a theory "for fun", but I was awesome at video games when I was naughty as a kid. Why? Because when I was gaming I was either doing it to avoid homework or chores. I just figured the naughty kids would be the better players, and if we want to get in a discussion of the other kind of naughty then it's safe to say only adults understand it and once again more "adult" players are on that team. I know it's ridiculous.

But seriously, if this pattern continues (when I say pattern I mean team Callie constantly winning) it's only going to snowball, if not it already has. Forget popularity and themes, the best players understand and know each other and they know they have a better shot at winning on team Callie. Sure you can say all the bad players would hop on the train and start joining team Callie to weaken them, but I don't like the idea of Sister pride getting in the way concerning Splatfest.

I believe the Sister's should show what side they chose once the Splatfest is over. That allows to see if your personality really matches the sister you personally like more, and it stops people from picking teams simply based on either Sister's choice.

I still believe it's a coincidence.

Ho-hum. Seeing that Team Nice was at least more popular gives me a bit of hope for the human race (though not by much). I thought for sure Team Naughty would win the popular vote.

I'm liking how it wasn't so blatantly one-sided on either popularity or wins, either. Although the cynic in me says that's because nobody could figure out which team was less popular, so both teams ended up with a sizable amount of good players.

I'm also liking how opinions have changed since the first Splatfests. I remember people complaining about how more wins meant nothing if the popularity was lopsided in one team's favor. Now it's the opposite: people complain that lopsided popular support means nothing if the other team can get that 51% wins advantage.

...why am I suddenly reminded of the Electoral College?

I must be missing something. Nothing seems to have changed with Spyke. Please elaborate.

I have one IRL friend that plays this game. And he was over at my place last night so...private battles aren't really a great option. And you don't get any money from them, which is really what I need if I want to continue rerolling gear...
