[SLOSHFEST!] "Sloshtoberfest" is scheduled for October 1st!!!

Hi, everyone! The date for the third Sloshfest, "Sloshtoberfest", is set. Here's your relevant information, people of legal drinking age in your respective countries.

##Sloshtoberfest will be held from 12:00 p.m. noon Central Daylight Time (UTC-6) October 1st to 8:00 a.m. October 2nd.

As always, check this website to see what those times are in your own neck of the woods.

I've shaved off the first four hours from previous Sloshfests, since, for some strange reason, people that aren't me seem to want to sleep in instead of drinking at 8:00 in the morning. To show that I'm flexible, you can start drinking around noon now, North Americans.

#What is Sloshfest?

If you don't know, it's basically a party that I and u/Rose94 throw about every 6 weeks or so where adult squids (by adults, I mean that you're of legal drinking age in your country) drink and play Splatoon together. Hilarity and camaraderie ensue.

Rules are basically the same as last time, so check out the previous Sloshfest thread for more details on all of that.

Don't drink? It's cool. Come have fun with us, anyway.

#Why is there an age requirement?

This gets asked by younger squids, and the answer is just that we're trying to be responsible adults here. We don't want to encourage underage drinking, so we have to insist that you be of legal age to drink to come join. Please, be honest.

I will say that I'd like to see more events pop up where everyone can be involved. I may not have the energy to organize them, but I encourage people to think about whether they might like to. Rose and I would be happy to provide advice.

Where do we meet?

#Discord!

#This Discord server: https://discord.gg/0zQuQq56g171tWja

There's no procedure for joining. Just come to the Sloshfest Discord server and introduce yourself. Put your NNID in the #NNID section. Also, for simplicity's sake, go ahead and also style your name as

• "YourMiiverseName | YourNNID"

That just makes things so much simpler when we're trying to put matches together.

#Do you have merch this time, STK?

Yes, I do have merch planned. I'm still working the kinks out of it, though, since Teespring added some new options like mugs and tote bags. You'll hear more about the merch tomorrow or Thursday. I wanted to get this announcement out there, though, now that we have a date.

Ok, then...

#Once again, Sloshtoberfest starts at noon Central Daylight Time on October 1st. Be there or be somewhere less fresh!
