The head honchos over at the “Squid Research Lab” are ready to conduct a fun survey for next week’s upcoming Splatfest theme. The question they are posing to the legions of ink warriors out there: should the next battle ground be set in a futuristic utopia (ie: in the style of the Jetsons or Futurama) or perhaps a Jurassic-esk, dinosaur infested past?

To aid in the decision making process, the Splatoon official website offered fans this helpful list of time traveling pros and cons:

Past Pros:

• Dinosaurs are totally sweet.
• It’s easier to stay on your Paleo diet in the Paleolithic era.
• Caveman fashion was pretty fresh, assuming The Flintstones is an accurate documentation.

Past Cons:

• Dinosaurs might eat you.
• No burgers OR pizza.
• Your mom might ask you to be her date to the Enchantment Under the Sea dance.

Future Pros:

• Your best friend could be a robot.
• Holodecks provide hours of entertainment, all without needing to leave your house!
• Transportation potentially seems cooler: Rocketships? Scotty beaming you up?

Future Cons:

• Robots might have gained intelligence and decided they’re not friendly.
• What happens if your transporter makes a mistake and mixes you up with someone else? I think we’ve all seen The Fly enough times to know what could happen…
• All food now comes in the form of an affordable and widely available pill, BUT IT’S ONLY AVAILABLE IN SQUID FLAVOR.

Starting Saturday, January 9th, voting will commence for those who want to take part in this cheeky decision. The official American Splatfest will begin afterwards, on January 15th. No news yet on Splatoon Europe, however, nor any sign of Splatoon Japan following the trend. North American fans, meanwhile, can happily look forward to either flying cars or running with the velociraptors starting January 15th’s Splatfest! Happy voting, time travelers!
