It seems this thread has died down lately. Time to change that! Here´s a bunch of questions to a bunch of people, along with my answer to them because I can!
(sorry if any of these have already been asked to you and if this takes you long to respond to.)
1. Ever heard of League of Legends? (yes, I play it at times, but I´m really bad)
2. Highest amount of victories you ever got in Splatoon in a row? (around 11)
3. Your proudest moment in Splatoon? (when I jumped backwars off a platform and sniped a guy who was swimming up the wall that lead to said platform)
4. Random fun fact you know? (Nobody actually knows who named Earth.)
5. Why do you have the avatar you have? (Asked an artist to do it on Splatoon amino because I heard she was taking requests.)
6. Why do you have the username you have? (see my answer to this question in the "Describe the signature above you" thread.)
7. What exactly is cookie dough and why do people like it so much? (yeah, I don´t know. They don´t sell it where I live.)
8. A country that you´d like to visit that isn´t Japan? (I´d love to visit Australia at some point)
9. Do you think the Iwoomynati exist? (definitely. they´re EVERYWHERE.)
10. Do you like ninjas? (Who doesn´t like ninjas?)
11. Favorite song? (this one´s hard... currently, it´s probably "The Fragrance of Dark Coffee" from Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations.)
12. Do you own any pets? (yes, one dog, and I used to have a few birds.)
13. Date you joined squidboards? (March 9th, 2016.)
14. Date you got Splatoon? (roughly a week after its release.)
15. Were you hyped for it when it got announced? (not really, I only saw how good it was after everyone talked about it after its release.)
16. If you could, would you change your real name? (yeah, I´m not a big fan of mine.)
17. Do you speak any other languages? (yes, 4, 3 of them fluently.)
18. What´s your dream job? (programmer. I´d love to program games one day.)
19. Do you like to party? (nah. I´m not a social guy. Give me a gaming evening over a disco evening any day.)
20. Favorite piece of gear in Splatoon? (the anchor sweat and studio headphones are awesome.)
21. Can you draw? (nope. I have ZERO talent.)
22. Can you sing? (see previous answer.)
23. Sea or mountains? (Sea all the way!)
24. Favorite fictional character from anything ever? (Hmmm... Phoenix Wright from Ace Attorney.)
25. Last question! Did you know... squids actually don´t woomy?

Ok, there. Have fun!
Yay, more questions! Thank you!
1.Yes, I played it a few years ago, I made it to about level 10, then got bored of it. I play a game called Awesomenauts sometimes, which is similar to LoL, it has turrets and lanes, but only 2 lanes, 2 turrets per lane (and then the lanes converge into a 5th turret near the base), and 3 players per team. And it's played like a 2D platformer, rather than from an above perspective where you click to move around and attack. The characters also only have 2 abilities, and no ultimate, and the shop has only 24 items, no consumables, and 3/4 of the items each game are exclusive to the character you're playing as. Also, each team has a shared level, but every player still gets individual money. So it's like LoL, but played differently, and a lot simpler. Additionally, it's the only Steam game I'm aware of that supports GameCube controllers, so I can play it without having to map every button to a key.
2. I'm not sure. Probably around 15. My victory streak in singleplayer is still going, because I've never gotten a game over, and I doubt I ever will unless I try to fail. Actually, in the amiibo challenges with the roller as your weapon, I got a game over once, during the final boss, so I'm only unbeaten in the levels that come with the game.
3. I have this in a thread, I'll find it and copy-paste it here. It's fairly recent (Which is probably why I consider it my proudest, because I remember it well):
In Bluefin, someone had just thrown a Splash wall as I turned into a Kraken to chase him, and it landed very close to the base of the grated walkway. I tried to maneuver around it and go through the small area left uncovered, but I hit the wall, which knocked me back into the walkway, and I fell through. He then proceeded to swim through his wall and advance further into our side of the map, towards the center rather than upwards. But right as I fell through, I started to hold right, and since I was still a Kraken, I was able to attach myself to the wall and start climbing up, and then I chased and splatted him just before my special ran out.
Also, the time I got 18-0 in a ranked match
4. I can't think of much. Crows are really smart. 1111111111111 (1 13 times) spelled out contains 113 characters. You can fly by simply throwing yourself at the ground an missing. About Myself: I've beaten Sesame Street Fighter without glitches in 93 seconds, which is second place out of 4 people on speedrun.com.
5. I love snakes, I change my avatar every few weeks, this is what first came to mind when I was thinking of what I should change it to.
6. I wanted to switch from my previous name I used online to something that had few enough characters so I could use it in single player games where the character cap is usually around 8, and "Anaru" was the first thing I thought of. I didn't know this at the time, but apparently it's the name of a character in an anime, and a real name that some people have in some specific group of people in New Zealand (I just searched for it, it's a group called the Māori).
7. It's literally just dough that you can make into cookies.
8. It wouldn't be Japan anyways. Canadians speak English, so that's an option. There are some European countries I'd like to visit (Such as France, Germany, and Sweden) but I'm not that great at speaking French and I know nothing about the languages of the other 2 countries, so at the moment, I'd choose Canada. If I could instantly learn any language and then go to that country, I'd choose German and then visit Germany, because I'm German (Well, mostly German. At least 70%, my dad's pretty much pure German, my Mom's family is more mixed. Also, I took a genetics test once, and apparently I'm .1% Native American/Asian, those were grouped together so I'm not sure which one.)
9. I heard about them on a cooking show (I usually don't find illuminati jokes that funny, which is surprising, because I usually will laugh at almost anything, but this video really surprised me the first time I saw it, and it didn't feel incredibly "memey" like most illuminati jokes are. But it won't surprise you since you now know exactly what it's about)
10. Sure, I was Ninjas in Ninjas vs. Pirates
11. That's a great song, definitely my favorite from that series. My favorite is:
12. I used to have a cat, I currently have a dog.
13. November 2, 2015. That's about 1.35 months after I got Splatoon.
14. Oh, I accidently sort of answered this already. I got it as a present on my 15th Birthday, so September 21, 2015.
15. It looked sort of fun. The shooter genre hadn't really interested me before, so I didn't think I'd like it very much. I was incredibly wrong.
16. Maybe if I could go back and change it at the start of my life. It would be extremely confusing if I changed it now.
17. I'm alright at speaking French, I learn French at my school. I would prefer to learn German (because I'm German) but the only languages they offer are Spanish, French, and Japanese. I suppose I could try to learn it independently.
18. I'd like to create and program games.
19. Nope, parties are awful.
20. Sky-Blue Squideye
21. Not really. I used to draw sometimes. I drew a dragon once that looked alright, I don't know where it currently is, though. I drew it in my art class in my first year of middle school, my teacher spent about three weeks teaching us exclusively how to draw dragons, which I thought was amazing, because I love dragons. So of course they looked somewhat nice. we spent so much time dedicated to drawing them.
22. Not well, and I don't listen to music for the lyrics, mostly just the sound.
23. Mountains
24. That's difficult to answer. It's probably someone from a book rather than a video game. When I was really young (near the age of five), I would have said Winnie the Pooh. I don't know what it is right now, there're so many great characters. Actually, it's probably Roland from The Dark Tower. My favorite character from a game might be Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles. From a movie, maybe Han Solo from Star Wars.
25. Where did you come across that bit of false information? They do.

@13thGalaxy @SurrealSquid @Anaru @G1ng3rGar1 @Magolor
1. What's your favorite color?
2. What genres of music do you like to listen to?
3. What styles of art are your favorites?
4. How do you prefer to play games?
5. Are you going to give me something nice for my birthday?
1. Blue, it seems like blue is a lot of people's favorite.
2. As always, my answer is "I know very little about music genres".
3. Music is considered art, right? If so, music.
4. I'm not quite sure what you mean. I play Splatoon with motion controls, those are great. I like to use my GameCube controller for most PC games.
5. Sure, but I'll have to think of something that's not a physical object, or something I can just send you a picture of. Oh, and your birthday is 4 days after my dad's birthday. His is very easy to remember because it's 10/10.
@Cuttleshock @Magolor @Mendax @G1ng3rGar1 @Ikaheishi @Achamo @woomycheri
1. What movie have you watched the most?
2. Do you have any goals you'd like to accomplish within the next year?
3. How good are you at remembering the names of other people? (Related and Somewhat Personal Story: There's a guy at my school, pretty much every time we see each other we hug each other and say "I love you", I'm not quite sure how that started. As I've never been in a romantic relationship, that's probably the most intimate thing I've ever done, and I see him about once every week or two. Those interactions are around 80% of all the communication we've ever had with each other. I've known him for about a year and I have
no idea what his name is (I probably know the names of, at most, 150 people, most likely closer to 100; I'm terrible at remembering names. That number includes family members, but doesn't include the names of people I've never met in person, such as Stephen King and Grant Kirkhope). I don't know how to find his name without asking him and I don't really want to do that after knowing him for so long.)
4. Do you have any stories you'd like to share?
5. What's something you enjoy eating that most people don't?
6. What are your favorite 5 seconds of your favorite song? (Post a video of it, then write the timeframe of those 5 seconds below it)
7. What's your favorite kind of tree?
8. What are 25 things that make you happy?
9. From 1 to 10, how good are you at Chess?
10. Have you ever held a sword?
