This is a trial thread, I notice that threads do go of into other conversations before returning to the on topic point. So, If you notice that a thread is going completely off-topic try to post in here. I realise that it is a bother to go to Chit chat then get ripped apart by the regulars there for making redundant posts, so that is another reason I have made this.

Welcome to the next level of OT...

This thread has no limits to spam and decent conversation...
If old OT ever gets closed down this will be the refugee camp... 

[Anton d`Arklus]

 

and the original OT?? 

if this is just a backup not perma relocation then cool xD

[morten]

Well, now you have two places to hang out... 

Next should be a shoutbox... 

[SeraphimNoire]

offtopic here

Not since 2007 anymore... And Narutaru is long done... I guess you mean Bokurano? 

[Anton d`Arklus]

well I'm not moving completly out of "teh OT" 'til I get the 10000th  

also an FG section would be nice  
gawd, I'm digging this smileys xD
so we can make the lines move,huh? nice... 

[morten]

gawd, I'm digging this smileys xD

Yea, I miss that too... Gonna ask silv next for a Forum Games section...

Btw, there are no rules on sigsize or anything here... And you can modify your posts anytime, even after two years... 

On the top between search and help was the arcade section but there are currently no new games available... I used to play Donkey Kong and stuff there... 

Also, the radio doesn't work yet again... There's the DJ option, so everyone can listen to your music upload on the radio...

[SeraphimNoire]

Not since 2007 anymore... And Narutaru is long done... I guess you mean Bokurano? 

nope but thats great too

Im asking since the only scans Ive found were the censored dark horse or whatever scans, because the translaters were too lazy to get some raws

Im looking for the uncensored once

[morten]

Oh, you mean my scanlation of Narutaru? I made an uncensored scanlation of vol.6 btw...
I will upload all my stuff on another GWR thread next... Time to move into this little childboard and get working big times now and find new people and projects...

Really like the vacation from ST...

[Deileon]

I gotta say, this is a nice place you've got here.  Though, it would be even better if we had our own private 'shout box' to use -- not that I’m complaining or anything.

[SeraphimNoire]

DO WANT

[morten]

I gotta say, this is a nice place you've got here.  Though, it would be even better if we had our own private 'shout box' to use -- not that I’m complaining or anything.

Yea, I asked silv already... I'm gonna get one ready for sure... 

DO WANT

Okay, I'm gonna upload Narutaru on a new thread here tomorrow, together with all my old stuff I have done yet!

[Itoshiki Shin]

Damn, it's kinda hard to resist - This is like OT 2.0... It's like having a dream... 

Popo, MGB, Cali, Me, Mort, Seth... who else is on the Cafe already?

BTW, i found a nice little table at the cafe where i can fit right in... hehehe, take a guess where that is?
 

[Deileon]

Yea, I asked silv already... I'm gonna get one ready for sure... 

That's a relief. Once we have that, there'll be no reason for us to use that crappy fansite anymore. I was really starting to get tired of its layout, especially that creepy picture of Hinata at the top of the page. 

[Anton d`Arklus]

guess I'll tell sakura...Ura & Bloo are also missing...the only other that comes to mind is Gum, but dunno if anyone is planning on inviting him...

That's a relief. Once we have that, there'll be no reason for us to use that crappy fansite anymore. I was really starting to get tired of its layout, especially that creepy picture of Hinata at the top of the page. 

it is not as we use it that much, but yeah that pic was kinda creepy....
btw, gb...why the double account?

[morten]

Well, we can make this our personal fun place to build up...

Btw, silv said that he uploaded new avatar images for the profiles and there's a gallery between logout and donations too to upload, share and get desktops and sigs...

Get some avatars or upload your own now! Look at profile > Forum profile Informations > [Asian girls], [chibi], etc... or this one...
Oh, and you should hide your email adress... Don't forget that there a new codes to use like the spoiler tags...

[Deileon]

it is not as we use it that much, but yeah that pic was kinda creepy....
btw, gb...why the double account?

I made an account months ago and completely forgot about it until last night. But it was too late. I'd already made this account, and since I happen to prefer this username, I'm gonna stick with it.   

[Anton d`Arklus]

you'll always be mgb anyways...

...well...w/e....back to ST until my big post...

[morten]

Did you check the Master Keaton raws here in winnyclub btw? How is there quality?

Other nice stuff I dl today were some volumes of Omega Tribe and RIDEBACK. But I think the second one has it's scanlation group already...

...well...w/e....back to ST until my big post...

Ah, your secret... 

Well, I have to get back to proof-reading for Doro now... Just tell everyone else you wanna invite too where to find me the next two weeks... 

[Anton d`Arklus]

Ah, your secret... 

wanna know? It is so elemental hehe 

Call me back when the shoutbox or the FG section is ready...

[Deileon]

Did you check the Master Keaton raws here in winnyclub btw? How is there quality?

Not yet, but I intend to later tonight. Right now I'm busy trying to figure out what I'm going to make myself for dinner. I think I might end up going out for something, though; I'm not really in the mood to cook.

Other nice stuff I dl today were some volumes of Omega Tribe and RIDEBACK. But I think the second one has it's scanlation group already...

Some no-name group did the first volume of Rideback (to promote the anime), but beyond that, it hasn't been touched. Personally, I was thinking about picking it up eventually.

[morten]

I didn't look at Master Keaton yet. It's strange that there is a Urasawa series not yet scanlated. Maybe it has something to do with the story quality...

The Rideback scans aren't that good indeed...

[Popothepenguin]

^Yeah, I thought it was strange too especially since the anime is pretty well known (from what I know).

[Deileon]

I didn't look at Master Keaton yet. It's strange that there is a Urasawa series not yet scanlated. Maybe it has something to do with the story quality...

I've seen the entire anime series, and I thought the story was quite good. Sure, I wouldn’t say it‘s up to par with his latest stuff (since he‘s grown so much as a manga-ka since then), but it still holds up well to this day.

And it's not like that's his only work that people ignore -- Happy and Yawara! haven't gotten the (full) scanlation treatment either.

[Itoshiki Shin]

^Scanlating Urasawa is the part where you people step in right? Me? I'm too busy translating Echi content. BTW Mort, i'll send you Page 1 as soon as i get home... which is something like six hours from now... if any of you guys out there are yet to start uni, try to build your timetable into five well balanced days... my tuesdays are hell - Three tutorials for which i usually have tests, and three lectures... My days start at seven in the morning and ends at seven in the afternoon...

Cooool... Keep it going, you get used to hit. Later, you can translate a whole chapter in one hour, believe me... 
Can you join GWR on your profile? Profil> Account related settings> Primary Group> GWR team ?

If you want a shoutbox, you need to register one. Here is the shoutbox I use for my own site. http://www.shoutmix.com/main/ It has autorefresh and you can customize the color to your needs. Just send me your shoutbox embedding code and I will add it for you.

PS: Since the shoutbox runs in your own forum there are no limitation to size or color of the shoutbox.

silv

Hell yea, silv is the man!! 

I'm gonna look into it and edit a shoutbox tomorrow. I want one small and nice that fits on the GWR main board like the one at winnyclub but maybe in black and silver... And with bunny/ monkey smilies... 

[Deileon]

^Scanlating Urasawa is the part where you people step in right?

I guess we could eventually; I’ve got all of Happy and Yawara! (in tankōbon form) saved to my hard drive. (They're in surprisingly good shape too, considering how old they are.) Plus, I know someone over at MangaHelpers who would be more than willing to lend a hand if we need any help, which we probably will at this point.

But alas, I won’t be able to do anything until I‘ve healed.

Umm, for some reason, Account Related Settings doesn't seem to have any further options open to me... any ideas?

Shoutbox, definition of: That's a place where one can spam w/o spamming, and still spam one's favorite thread anyway.

Edit: The weird name is fixable viz profile, apparently...

Again, talking with silv later to make you all part of the GWR team... 

I like the shoutbox thing but won't both OT threads suffer from that? W/e, you can't always have enough toys to play with and maybe more people join...

You can change names that easy? Still weird, [GWR]Shin... 
Want a loli sig for here later?

[Deileon]

Okay, now I'm desperate.

Thanks to a Naoki Urasawa-centric blog I recently found, I came across information regarding a short story he wrote about Bob Dylan's early years. It's not very long (only around 30 pages, from what I've heard), though it sounds interesting.
Problem is, I can't find it anywhere. I've already looked on Winny and Share, and didn't find anything even remotely close. Now, I'm to the point the where I'm actually willing to buy the book if that's what it takes, but I can't even find the ISBN, let alone the actual product. Help me!

[morten]

I'm checking amazon.co.jp...

What's this btw: Emil Sebe?
A spin-off of all the psycho fairy tails in Monster?

Okay, found it pretty fast:
Talkin about Dylan
ディランを語ろう (単行本)
ISBN-10: 4093592020

I found a couple of interesting stuff that I will order tomorrow: Sexy Voice & Robo (Ikki) and Jabber Wocky... Couldn't find the raws anywhere...

[Itoshiki Shin]

^^I'm trying to shake off the loli person image... no one's gonna buy it, i know... - Of course, i'll still be a loli at heart, but considering i'm working on Pai, a loli sig would be kind-of out of place...

@MGB: First I've heard of it... maybe you'll have some better luck with mort...
BTW, what's the story behind this nick?

@Mort: Shin is too common place, i've grown attached to the nick over the years, and Shin-Sama sounds kinda self-important otaku... anyway, [GWR]Shin sounds weird if you run around calling me that, but well, i expect most people to go with Shin.  [GWR] is just in case you need to distinguish between me and some other Shin...

A techmarine will do for now. Once i get home, i'll take a picture of myself, photoshop it, and then use that for sig.

Like anyone cares about hentai/ loli addiction here... 
There is a hentai section and a hentai raw section in winny on this board and some people have loli sigs here...

But nice 40k avatar. I wasn't that happy with the new game though...

Well, we think about a cooler name later... I already adapted MGBs new name (first I thought it was Ura)...

Ah, no wonder I couldn't find it. I’ve been looking for it using the wrong 'search term' this whole time. (I thought its title was Blowin' in the Wind, but apparently not...) Now I feel like an idiot. But thanks, man. I really appreciate the help. I'll be sure to hit the 'thank you' button next to your post.

BTW, what's the story behind this nick?

There’s no story behind it, really. It's just a name from an old Japanese TV series.

[Itoshiki Shin]

^Aww, no... here i was thinking it was made up of all the names of your previous boyfriends...

[morten]

I made you all GWR team members now. You have now access to jPirate and jStaffroom.
Don't abuse your powers or I get into trouble! 

Once we make up a second scanlation group called Offtopia we can change some of the titles again...

Uppps... Now I'm a moderator here..! Be nice or I have to moderate you... 

[Deileon]

Once that's up and running, are we gonna move this thread there or keep it here?

Congrats. I look forward to seeing the rule-breakers cower beneath you.

I loled at the pic xD
And it´s cool to be here,gotta see if I can contribute in other parts of this forum too :D      

[Popothepenguin]

  Mort is a moderator now! Yay!

[morten]

Only in this forum... 

Btw, is Steal trolling OT 1.0..?  Welcome Blue... Red send me a PM on ST where we all vanished... 
Now we only need to wait for Cali...

Names for Shin: Chemical Shin, Shin Nabokov, Pedo_Shin

[Deileon]

Btw, is Steal trolling OT 1.0..?

I wouldn’t say he’s ‘trolling’ per se, but he’s certainly being annoying. I wouldn‘t pay him any attention, though; let him do whatever he wants. Now that we have somewhere else to hang out, we don't have to go to StopTazmo anymore.

[Popothepenguin]

yah what happened to Cali??? I'm liking these little onion guys.

whatever happened to Hadou? That guys been gone for a little too long.


(I think SD's a little ronery...)

[morten]

I'm still missing some few things here, I'm gonna look for that Shoutbox thing to get installed next...

The only thing bothering me here is the inactive Gantz thread... 
Gonna ask silv for one to replace the Naruto section here next month...

The sections are getting regrouped again... Silv said that there will be a Forum Games section next...

Now that we have somewhere else to hang out, we don't have to go to StopTazmo anymore.

Imo, it's a nice alternative but I will leave ST after the RPG is over... It became such a boring place to post...

[Popothepenguin]

we could use a gantz section. That's the only reason for me to be tied to the ST forum.

[Deileon]

we could use a gantz section. That's the only reason for me to be tied to the ST forum.

As much as I would like one, I doubt it would be of much use; Gantz just doesn't seem popular enough to justify its own section. I mean, look at its thread in the 'General Manga' section, for example -- it's completely dead! And the only time it's EVER used is when a new chapter's released, but even then, it doesn't get much use.

[morten]

I guess taking it over and building it up by ourselves will be the best way to make this another Gantz place...
It's our duty to change some things here like we want them... The new forum's layout is a bit confusing. There are new ones and some were merged or dismerged... I actually like it more small and well-arranged...

The manga discussion section isn't very popular at all here since most of the people are scanlators/ translators coming here for getting raws at winnyclub and not discuss mangas...

As said, we can shape this place like we want...

[Itoshiki Shin]

^Owing to popular pressure, I'm changing the weird nick to something else - well, there's already GWR there, so no point keeping it. On Steal - shrug -I exchanged a few PMs with him after shit happened, and he was like "if you had come to us before, maybe..." and to which I replied "If you hanged out OT and talked with us, maybe we would have made the effort, but meh..." From a more ... "machievelical" point of view, considering the storm that blew out of OT, it kinda makes sense for a mod to try and keep tabs on what's happening there. Kind-of Ironic - I used to hang around OT because it was completely detached from OT politics... it ended up being right in the heart of it... oh well...
  A REAL HERO NEVER ESCAPES FROM WAR!!!

@Popo - I second D.E.I.L.E.O.N (How many boyfriends would that have made?  ) with us not needing a gantz sub... activity here isn't big to begin with, so a dedicated gantz section doesn't make sense - Dumb threads aside, ST Gantz has one of the most comprehensive library of gantz minutia disection out there, and having already contibuted to that, i don't really feel like starting all over again here - We'd just be dusting over what's already been discussed at length in ST.

[Popothepenguin]

well I just want it for scan releases cause I'm too lazy to go outside of ST (I hate MH new setup.)
  I'm in the mood for some good ole axemurdering

Nice bro... 

So that's why he started posting in old OT. A bit of late for him I'll say... 

What should I do with the GWR staff room? A secret place for rant and dl loli? 
Gotta think of something. Deadline to write for Planet Monsta ends friday...
And some stuff isn't working yet like the jcafe radio and DJ option, some dead smilies and the arcade section...

well I just want it for scan releases cause I'm too lazy to go outside of ST (I hate MH new setup.)
  I'm in the mood for some good ole axemurdering

 

Someone reads or saw Moyashimon? Only two chapters scanlated and it's a cool story... But again, very hard to translate, I presume...

[Deileon]

well I just want it for scan releases cause I'm too lazy to go outside of ST (I hate MH new setup.)

Well, in that case, I suggest that you use raw-paradise from now on. Their layout makes it easy to find whatever you're looking for, and they usually update before anyone else, so it works out well: you don’t have to depend on MH for your raw fix, AND you get the raw earlier than usual.

Edit: Oops, I thought you said "raw releases," but it turns out you said "scan releases"... Never mind, then.
