Recently, Fangamer asked me to make a post in Japanese regarding the translation of OFF.
Well...in the responses to that post, I noticed some frustration from Latin American fans. Let
me address a few of those issues now.

1. There is an officially licensed UNDERTALE concert series that unfortunately has no shows
planned in Latin America. I did retweet its schedule on request, but I have hardly any
involvement with the concert series and no input on where they perform. But, the organizers have heard the enthusiasm from Latin America, and I personally think it would be great to
have performances there. I hope it works out!

2. Fangamer’s shipping costs to Latin America are prohibitively expensive. As just one of
Fangamer’s clients, I am aware of this problem and I’ve asked them about possible solutions
before. I think it would be amazing if they could find affordable shipping to Latin America (and
other affected regions), but they have expressed that it’s a huge logistical hurdle. The other
shipping methods they’ve tried had a lost package rate of over 50%…

Still, I think Fangamer is interested in finding solutions, so I hope that we can figure out some way to get affordable merch to Latin American fans. Fangamer is very easy to work with and
truly passionate about the things they make. I really trust them and would prefer to collaborate
exclusively with them on merch.

3. Unfortunately, there are no translations for UNDERTALE into other languages besides
Japanese. That includes Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, but also every other language –
Chinese, Korean, Russian, French, German, Italian, and more.

I know it sucks that there are no other official translations for UNDERTALE. But I want to
make it clear that this isn’t because I have a grudge against other countries. It’s because, if I
release something official, I want it to match my vision. I was only able to do this for the
Japanese version because I know Japanese myself, and I worked very closely with our
brilliant translator to thoroughly check the text. I am not against official translations for other languages if we could make it work the same way… In the past I have looked into various options with my publisher, 8-4, but nothing has come of that yet. Maybe I should try a different approach.

I’m very happy that there are unofficial translations on PC. Considering I don’t understand
other languages, letting fans interpret the game without the burden of being “officially” perfect is amazingly helpful.

As for DELTARUNE, it’s just not feasible from a development standpoint to support other
languages right now, since it would make the game take longer to come out...
---
I’m honored to have many fans across the world, and of course that means Latin America too.
I don’t want anyone to feel left out. I’m sorry if my silence made me seem like I was ignoring
anyone.

We always talk about what makes good callouts, but what's your least favorite callout -- phrases that are just unhelpful, give you the ick, etc? #compsplatoon

My least favorite of all time: "I'm working on it".

Finally updated my reference sheet, this took forever. Unfortunately, I realised very late (after I finished everything) that lance sheaths are not a thing (which should be very obvious to everyone but me), so I made another one without it. #kirby

When this happened, there was so much panic behind the scenes that never saw the public eye. Many TOs no longer felt safe running their events, knowing that there was intentional harm done to try and attack the SSC, that does all of its volunteer work to help in keeping the scene safer, and TOs.

Though, some points:
- Some colleges simply have less Splatoon players than others. YMMV, but outreach is super important.
- Your in-person social groups at college may overlap with the collegiate splatoon sphere, and whether or not this is "good" varies by person.
- Managing teams is hard work!

I wrote about my esports experience and coaching for other collegiate teams on my graduate school applications. I even brought them up in interviews!

This fall, I will be attending graduate school to get my Ed.S and M.S. in School Psychology. I don't think it could be done without my experience!

Through this esports program, I was able to meet a large variety of not only Splatoon players, but connect with those involved in other esports as well. It was really great being able to combine my interests and have it actually reflected on my resume - yes, you can write that down on a job app!

Lengthy response incoming!

What I did was... combine the aspects. There is a special comp circuit for college students only called the CCA!

I spearheaded the collegiate team at my undergraduate university and was able to cultivate teams underneath our school's larger esports organization.
