Uncommon Frye W. Almost certainly not going to take the W, but I'd rather lose for the right side than win for the wrong side.

Honestly, it’s a victory for me if Mint Chip doesn’t win. But I will personally go with Vanilla since I’m usually on Frye’s team and want a change.

Team Vanilla for me because, out of the three flavors, it's the one I like the most (for what that's worth) and the basis of better flavors like cookies & cream or cookie dough, among other more brand-specific flavors that make up most of my preference.

I don't know if that says more about the options or my personal tastes

I'm torn for the same reason, thinking on it more. I like mint chip more than vanilla, but my favorite flavors (aforementioned cookie dough and cookies n' creme) both use vanilla as a base.

Hmm...

Do not resist the call of the One True Flavor. Reject fancy flavors, return to vanile

I actually wonder why chocolate isn’t an option here. Too obvious? We already devoted an entire fest to it after all

Probably both of those factors, yeah. As nice as it would've been for some Neapolitan ice cream action.[lol]

Vanilla is the Prime Flavor from which all other flavors are born.

I'll probably be going with vanilla in this Splatfest for the same reason brought up by others in this thread: it's the foundation of other flavors that I really like.

I'm going with strawberry; as funny as it would be to have the white ink with vanilla, I don't have it in me to lie to myself.

I want to note that technically vanilla is not the base from which other flavours branch from, "sweet cream" is—that is, cream with just sugar or other sweeteners with no additional flavouring. Amusingly for something so "plain" I never see it sold anywhere except "specialty" ice cream parlors.

Vanilla is the True Neutral of ice cream flavours.

I'm going with mint because it at least has chocolate in it.

True Neutral - Lawful Neutral - Neutral Evil

Chaotic Evil would be something like ketchup-flavored ice cream. I mean, Marina would probably like it…

I figure the chaotic alignments will include things like Neapolitan and swirls.

People who think vanilla is the prime flavor have never heard of Gelato al Fior di Latte. It's milk, cream, sugar, and nothing else; ice cream in its truest state, without even vanilla to dilute its purity. It's also kind of a "final exam" for anyone into making their own ice cream; the lack of any additional flavors means you have to really nail the basics. I hope to eventually work my way up to it.

In any case, I'm probably going strawberry for this one. As horrid as store-bought strawberry ice cream is, it's fantastic when done properly.

[up] Most on-topic gaming thread:

I personally believe that pistachio is a more Chaotic Evil flavor than... Rum and raisin? Is that even a real flavor of ice cream?

I had a dream last night about a very strange splatoon glitch, that allowed people to duplicate themselves mid-match and control both copies at the same time. It was about as broken as you'd expect since the actual hitbox needed to kill someone wasn't on either copy.

If you think the Clash Blaster is bad, just wait until you're up against the S-BLAST '92

So I have an awful day. Nothing seems to be going right, everything seems to be going wrong. I learn I have many, very pressing medical issues that we can't afford to fix. I come home to blow off some steam in Salmon Run

The only autofire weapon is the Range Blaster. Best DPS in the rotation is the Mini Splatling, meaning it's very easy to get overwhelmed if your designated heavy gunner for the wave isn't on the ball or disconnected

And we still don't have a Side Order release date

...well, at least it's not on Marooner's Bay. And it's a good rotation for obliterating Horrorboroi. Small mercies
