[Approved] Splatoon 2 event thingy

[Meganium]

There's really not much to do other than making the thread and making sure how times work with my schedule. I was hoping I can get some help but no one came forward sooooo I'll see what I can do.

Was hoping this would take place during splatfest, since I had ideas.

ANYWAYS, placeholder for said thread.

I want to do this event as a "freeplay/anything goes/no limits" kind of event where up to 8 players can join. I think that's how Splatoon works that way. Also, I can see about getting a discord open for those who want to join in. The new Switch app can also do voice chat but I honestly prefer discord.

Points will be given to those who actively participate...at least one match or two. Bonus points will be given to those who actually win a certain number of matches, especially competitive mode matches such as squads. I'll probably elaborate on that a little more later.

Tonight I'll get to work on my actual thread. I have free time until Saturday.

Thread is done and ready to go!

My schedule is actually a lot more flexible than I expected, just in time for the event, so I may not need help after all, unless I can get someone from the other side of the world.

This seems fine to me. A Normalium will go to each participant.

Looks fine to me! Agreeing with what gimmie said.
