20:11:35
minty

20:13:52
PincerAttack
i have no reason to when you don't want to
20:14:05
PincerAttack
thanks for the stream
20:14:22
shinmera
I would like to play private splatoon again
20:14:28
pliskin
aye! good night everyone o/
20:14:36
minty
it's been ages since woomy
20:15:08
gingerale
PincerAttack: Well you could have fun in solo queue like me and anon
20:16:02
PincerAttack
I don't do well in ranked
20:16:38
minty
i don't like the game punishing me for the internet going shit
20:17:36
gingerale
You don't have to do well in ranked. The whole point of the ranking system is that you get people approximately of your own skill level.
20:18:19
minty
funny comin' from someone who busted ass so hard to get to x rank
20:18:28
minty
"you don't have to do well in ranked" fukken...
20:18:42
PincerAttack
I will either grow in rank and get destroyed by better people or lose a rank and be annoyed
20:19:13
minty
gettin' someone on the team who's shit
20:19:19
minty
gettin' someone on the team who disconnects
20:19:20
shinmera
the game does a lot to make you feel bad for losing.
20:19:28
PincerAttack
It's a mindset issue
20:19:42
minty
getting disconnected and then gaining a crack in the bar like it's my fault
20:20:42
minty
if i fail at something i appreciate it being my fault alone
20:23:23
gingerale
Yeah, dealing with bad connections is really frustrating, I get that.
20:25:13
shinmera
It's also just frustrating because there's a lot of factors outside your control, and by definition being competitive is stressful.
20:25:57
minty
yeah... getting people who woomy and then jump off the side to throw the match is always cool
20:26:35
gingerale
Yeah, thankfully you can block people intentionally ruin people's games at least.
20:27:15
shinmera
it would be better if you could not see your rank at all
20:27:34
shinmera
because then there would be far less feedback about how you're doing and you could focus on each game as its own
20:27:43
gingerale
Oh yes, it would. Like hide it in the app or something and give some friendly point system that awards you for playing.
20:27:49
shinmera
but because you do have feedback you feel punished for doing bad, regardless of how much you did or not.
20:28:08
minty
i'd rather get squiffered at the spawn by shin than try to care about a match only to find out the rest of the people on the team are squidpartying
20:28:09
PincerAttack
That's just how it is with competitive games
20:28:09
gingerale
I pretty much learned to just not look at my rank after a game.
20:28:31
gingerale
But there are always things outside of your control. It's a game where everything always goes wrong and you just do what you can.
20:28:57
minty
this is just making me wanna run salmon
20:29:07
shinmera
gingerale: you can argue about this however you want, it doesn't change it that for most people losing is frustrating in a game like this.
20:31:11
gingerale
I wouldn't say most, but definitely a significant number. I just hope people learn to not stress about their ranks.
20:31:38
shinmera
I don't think this is something one can 'learn'
20:32:17
minty
yeah... if you try your hardest at something and then lose because someone on your team is sitting at the spawn not doing something you're not gonna be happy gingy
20:32:36
minty
that's just... that's gonna happen
20:32:41
shinmera
even if that doesn't happen, I just feel like shit that my best is not good enough.
20:33:12
minty
it's cuz you're not snorting lines of g fuel
20:34:11
minty
super competitive gaming is just how it is and if people want to play for fun in that realm it becomes harder to do
20:34:27
minty
because people who play to compete don't go light
20:35:59
gingerale
That's true, yeah. Sometimes I get really murdered there. But it's fine. Though people have been hoping that Splat 3 will include a casual way to play the ranked modes, so maybe that happens.
20:37:06
shinmera
don't hold your breath
20:37:13
PincerAttack
I envy your ability to handle losses
20:37:33
minty
"casual" "ranked" pick one
20:37:49
minty
by the time he gets back to the lobby he's probably forgotten that he lost
20:38:37
minty
so... my kid had testing at his state testing at his school last week. wore a mask. none of the other kids did. he now has a fever. i'm pissed
20:39:00
minty
wow i shat the bed on that sentence
20:39:07
minty
