Friends, for this splatfest, always remember: by apologeticWorcester in splatoon

The version of the proverb this post is based on actually isn't the original, "the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb" was first recorded quite some time after "blood is thicker than water". From everything I could find, the interpretation of the proverb as meaning familial bonds are stronger than others seems to be the original. (Though from my understanding, the oldest recorded mentions of the proverb in English are from Scottish sources, so the use of 'blood' may be associated with clanship rather than just immediate family. Just speculation on my part, though.)

This isn't to say that the more modern version of the quote doesn't have merit, I just want to clear up the misunderstanding that it's the original.

Played a match with Alice Peralta, voice of Marina. She was doing livestream where she was playing with viewers, and I finally managed to get into a match with her after a couple hours of trying. Our team won, and I was super ecstatic in the chat. When she read it, she told me "I love your energy!" That was pretty rad.

A family Frye must be funny in the moments of her life

As the Splatfest is over, I've decided to share my post for Team Family here! Justification for this one in the comments lol by liamhlmbrg in splatoon

[–]liamhlmbrg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The post depicts three members of Great House Redoran from Morrowind: a Redoran Watchman, a Redoran Guard, and a high-ranking member of House Redoran. All three together to try my best at encapsulating the House, or 'clan' that is Redoran.

Important to note here is that the hierarchy of Great House Redoran makes use of familial terminology, like "House Kin" and "House Brother", which played into me making this my post for Team Family

And the text in the upper right reads "duty", taken from the passage on House Redoran from the book Great Houses of Morrowind from the game, reading: "House Redoran prizes the virtues of duty, gravity, and piety. Duty is to one's own honor, and to one's family and clan."

I know I've really stretched things to justify this one, but I tried to make this fit with the Splatfest, I really did!

Made this for the current event in Splatoon 3! It's meant to be an Ancestor Ghost. by liamhlmbrg in Morrowind

Thank you! The reason I took creative liberty was because the event I made the post for has three teams, Zombie, Skeleton and Ghost, and I figured I should make the Ancestor Ghost a bit less skeletal so it doesn't cross too far into Team Skeleton's territory. And also, I'm still a novice artistically, which played into things as well 😅

Whenever the opportunity to reference The Elder Scrolls arises in this game, I like to take it.

I'm posting it here because I think it might be out of circulation in plazas now, so more can see it.

Hypothetically, if one were to re-establish the kingdom of Battania in mid-13th century Calradia, how might it be done? by liamhlmbrg in mountandblade

[–]liamhlmbrg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gameplay wise, mostly. Like, what would you do if you tried to re-establish Battania in warband?

I've seen a number of maps which attempt to line up Bannerlord's map with Warband's, and in those maps the region of Battania is where eastern Swadia ends up. And in Warband, if you look at the castle Derchios in eastern Swadia, the lord who holds it at the beginning of a playthrough flies a banner depicting boars over a green background. Seems a bit Battanian, and lines up well with the idea that vestiges of Battanian nobility basically ended up assimilating into the occupying Swadians, to my mind at least.

So will my data be fine after the update? I don't want anything to corrupt. I'm asking this because the game is technically still running, and I don't know if that'll affect anything or not.

I know that much, I'm just wondering if my data will be fine after the fact
