Big Run

The Grand Splatlands Bowl was the site of the eighth Big Run event which took place from 7 September 2024 to 9 September 2024, the weekend before the Grand Festival.

Described by Grizzco as an urgent situation with the tagline "Take back the Grand Festival venue!", the Salmonids planned to attack the Grand Festival's venue as it is being built which may jeopardize the upcoming Splatfest event set to take place there.

The Grand Splatlands Bowl Big Run event uniquely featured a global Golden Egg collection tally system. A scoreboard was visible in the Grizzco lobby, with a set goal of 700 million Golden Eggs to collect and award fish scales to all participants.

To help achieve this goal, Mr. Grizz set up his own personal modifications of Big Shot launchers around the stage specifically for delivering Golden Eggs; the ones that are closest to the egg basket automatically deliver the Golden Eggs themselves. Additionally, Goldies were able to spawn during regular waves, functioning in the same manner as they did during special Fog waves.

The weapon rotation for this event is a rare-weapon only rotation, with the Triumvirate appearing for all Xtrawaves.

There are technically only two distinct water levels, but the tide markers indicate three distinct spawn and basket locations. At normal tide, the basket appears in the center of the stage, with gushers to spawn enemies appearing near each of the three "wings" of the stage (with the left and right wing connected by narrow bridges as well as one inkrail each). High tide features the same water level but the spawn and basket are moved to the right wing of the stage, with two inkrails connecting to the central area, two gushers in the center of the stage, and enemies spawning from the water. At low tide, the basket is moved to the center wing of the stage and wider low-lying areas between the right and left wing of the stage are exposed; gushers appear in two of these low-lying areas as well as on the central platform of the stage, and inkrails appear in the same locations as normal tide.

Quota

This Big Run event featured a unique globally tracked Golden Egg counter system; the current tally was visible in-game via the two signboards within the lobby. The initial quota revealed in the anarchy Splatcast in which this Big Run was announced was  700,000,000. Upon being met, the quota increased by one hundred million Golden Eggs; the quota was increased a total of three times, after which the signboard could no longer display the current tally live. With each quota increase the scoreboards became increasingly decorated.
