I was just thinking the same. Things were going like clockwork earlier and I was on a huge winning streak. My teammates and I were doing a great job of reading each others moves. We'd cover each other when needed but usually just trusted the other to do their thing. If I saw a guy going to the left, I'd cover turf to the right, and they would do the same.
Since this afternoon it's been really spotty. I just had four matches on Saltspray where, no matter how many times I spammed "C'mon!" I couldn't get people up to the north end. In one match one guy stayed there the entire game. He was moving around but barely covering any ground. Then I'd start covering turf and have teammates behind me not swimming, but shooting ink over the ground I'd already covered. We'd just get cornered and lose.

Reddit's favorite map is Moray and their least favorite one is Port. They're ok in my books
also, something interesting regarding the Splat Fest (the sample size is 4141)
Roller Coasters - 57.9% / Water Slides - 41.8%
Sleeping - 51.1% / Eating - 48.9% - I didn't expect that Sleeping would be leading

Played this late afternoon for an hour and a half with the kiddos. We were team waterslide.
Yeah not many wins even when it was my turn. I did pull out at least 1 so we weren't 0fer.

Wow Coasters are winning? That's a surprise considering most of the teams I was on were really bad.
? They are winning in popularity.

Ah read it wrong.
Lol.
Reddit needs to learn to love Squelchers.
Interesting results
But still, the sample is veery small and it probably is biased
Well.. Lets see how well it represents the final results

I agree with this.
Got to Queen. Got paired with a pretty good Squiffer user who I stayed with for like 15 games straight and won 90% of them. Thanks for all the fun games yama.
edit: I mostly don't like Port because it's really difficult to come back once the enemy has advanced to the big area on your side of the map. Though I liked it during this Splatfest because I was usually on the team who did that

The sample size is plenty big, but it's not going to be representative because it's just people from Reddit.Interesting results

Agreed. Also lol at the majority still using the aero. I'd figure more people would branch out by now.

How did you get all Alex's on your team is a mystery.Here's my team from last night (Sorry for camera blur)

I like it too, but it's certainly one of the easiest maps for good snipers to camp on.
What's funny is it was originally two Alex's and some other person, then that person dropped and I got a third Alex.
Then we pretty much ran through Roller Coaster chumps for the rest of the night.

One of these is not the same lol
There is no competition for me in turf war, if you have ever played with the main members of splatgaf you would see that randoms are rarely near our level. I'm not trying to sound cocky or anything but it's not fun winning 95% of your matches with ease and the only times you lose are to laggy people or if your team is down 2 people.
Yeah outside of A+ lobbies I really can't stand randoms sometimes. Splatfest just forces me to play with bad people and it's no fun. I just realized I can finally get around to opening the splatoon amiibos and completing them because I can't play with gaf in my free time now anyway.

Yeah I had a blast using it earlier.

I've just never been as big of a fan of MP maps in general that are more like corridors. For example I was never a big fan of Elongation in Halo 2, and I'm not a big fan of Port Mackerel. I tend to prefer stuff like Saltspray Rig instead or Kelp Dome.
I've just never been a fan of tight corridors and confined spaces in shooters. I mean it's the same reason I prefer Ghost Recon vs Rainbow Six.

Didn't have connection issues, but it did feel like it took longer to get into matches today.

You can make it to King/Queen in 3 hours if you get on a decent team
I think I'm going to be taking a pass on the next Splatfest. I really don't like playing Turf War anymore or at least during Splatfest. To many people that ignore the map constantly. That has has to be what is happening because I'm off in an area and then suddenly everyone is around me and I look at the map and it's all the other color because other members of the team decided to jump to me instead of actually playing the damn objective and going to other parts of the map. The fact they have to look at the map to jump to me means they see the map being painted, even out home area, and they ignore it. Ugh.
These have to be some of the people that have decided to focus on ranked battles who don't bother playing the objective there either. They seem more interested today in going for kills then winning the match.

Winning popularity = Winning in splatfest tho.
Edit: The poll asked people Worldwide coasters vs waterslides, which may skew the results of this poll and is not indicative of the NA splatest.

Are the results shown instantly after splatfest?
Yeah there's nothing to do but get to the end of the stage with the different conditions
One hour after the end
No, you have to wait a few hours. ^Or maybe just one I guess.
Even if the south was bigger it's so accessible that trying to take it before the end of the match would still be a waste of time
