As soon as my exams are over I'll be helping the translation...University is depressing...(I just realized one thing today: I suck at Italian...for some reason)

Onizuka-GTO · 2006-05-11, 17:02

I know how you feel, i got one exam. I hate exams....

Um, even static .jpg avatars of 100x100 size are 6KB? .png avatars go up to ~30 KB and as we know, animated .gifs are largely aimed for 50 KB too.

i.e. Avatar limits need changing. What's sensible?

Onizuka-GTO · 2006-05-11, 18:01

I really have no idea.

(^^; )

That was the default size, i saw there.

erm... how about half of the initial size? 25kb?

Adigard · 2006-05-11, 18:29

Since you're planning on pulling most of the AS discussion to the new forums... Why not simply copy the AS guidelines? ^^

A thread on Tokyopop's messageboard about the Haruhi novels:

http://messageboard.tokyopop.com/for...ead.php?t=2925

They're looking into it

Vexx · 2006-05-18, 01:09

That would be great.... I know Tokyopop has been considering entering the "novel scene" .... snaring Haruhi would be a great start. Question is, of course, could they handle this property properly?

Congratulations for whoever is translating Lone Island Syndrone...hopefully we see the rest of it.

PhantomX · 2006-05-19, 00:44

It's Kinny Riddle ... I was hoping he would get it up before it actually aired :P

Guess he's busy ... thanks for at least updating for us kinny :X

I'm trying to. It's a tight deadline, besides real life commitments, I tend to procrastinate a lot. But I'll get it up by Sunday, even if it means not sleeping. xD

And the last translation update was me, for some reason I experienced some "Server Error" and it logged me as anonymous. Guess I'll have to update in smaller patches of texts instead of one large batch.

Onizuka-GTO · 2006-05-19, 08:16

We are looking into it.

In the meantime as kinny has just mention, please keep your contribution to small edits, to avoid losing it, and editing around "late morning" (PST) if possible.

Thank you.

60% of Lone Island Syndrome done for now.

Mahjong experts needed to help translate some Mahjong terms.

Kaioshin Sama · 2006-05-20, 01:46

I know a bit about Mahjong. I don't know the exact translations, but there are certain things you say to convey an action you are taking in the game. For example Tsumo is used to signify that you are ending the current game and have achieved the required set of tiles, which is usually 4 sets of 3 runs/combinations and 1 header (Two of the same tile). Usually you "Reach" when you are one tile away from achieving the required set of tiles, basically it gets you extra points because you a taking a risk by revealing you are about to win. "Ron" is used in lieu of Tsumo when you achieve the required set by using another persons discarded tile. Pon if I recall and this one is really sketchy in my memory, is a set of 3 of the same tiles where a Kon is four of the same tile, and a Chi being a run of the same suit of tiles. A combo of two, at least one of which is required to declare Tsumo is referred to as the eyes since there are two of them. The "Kaze/Wind" is chosen at the beginning of the current game and by using the right Kaze in your required set you can get extra points. Is there anything else that needs clarification?

Kinny Riddle · 2006-05-21, 06:44

Lone Island Syndrome is done.

Three and a half hours before the second anime episode of this chapter airs. I'm going to take a break now.

PhantomX · 2006-05-21, 11:44

I would like to be the first person to wholeheartedly thank you for your tremendous effort, and the fact that you kept your word and finished before episode 8 is out!

Heh, you're like a mini hero to me Kinny :P
