(i hope this the right subforum.) hopefully this thread is useful to someone! talk about player idiosyncrasies that you never understood the benefit of. this is basically a "can someone explain to me" thread. i'll start off.

why in the world do players put squid beakons on the spawn point? originally i thought it was a mistake--maybe their finger slipped or something--but i've gone into quite a few battles where after getting splatted i respawn surroundied by 5-7 squid beakons. is this an ancient squid ritual or am i missing something?

I also figured it wad a finger slip, I've done it before when I forgot what sub I've had. My only guess is that they either don't know you can always jump back to spawn or they think it's more like a sensor than a jump to point? Idk man, I'm also stumped.

People who wander off from the point after capturing, why do you do this? I don't mean the nearby area to make the enemy have to get through more of our ink, I mean the far ends of the map.

2 people in my team and one other person from the other team would congregate in a corner with a bunch of beacons. Til this day i still don't know what they were doing.

I remember one time I had this team mate that constantly followed me !!! While it is nice to have a companion I don't think it was the right choice since this was turf war ^^;; . It got rather annoying when they were so in my way I ended up falling off on Arowana Mall ;;; ... I still don't understand why they were my little shadow that whole match haha

During Splat Zones, those people who think it's still Turf War... And before you say "They were probably charging up inkstrike!" this one guy had Echolocator. I just don't get it.

i don't get the people who super jump to me then just stand where i'm standing blocking my charged shots.then they seemingly deliberately move when i move to further prevent my shooting the enemy's who are out of their splattershot jr/roller/splash-o-matic range.

i'm a squidbagger and i squidbag these tards on my own team when they die.
