badboytje88 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 And crap... Brickshelf is playing up again... Lets find another site to host my pics...
MetroiD Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Ah, poor old Dad. I told him months ago he had to take care of that shelf and tidy things up a bit in order to be able to find when he needs them... Father, have you tried using the services of our new friend, Frickeroo?
badboytje88 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 Nah I don't want to clutter up my flickr stream with mafia photo's. I haven't got a pro account. I used the old mocpages Without further ado, day 1 is up: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=66590
Brickdoctor Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Nah I don't want to clutter up my flickr stream with mafia photo's. I haven't got a pro account. I used the old mocpages Photobucket's a good choice. MOCpages has really awful quality.
badboytje88 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 Photobucket's a good choice. MOCpages has really awful quality. Mocpage is just temporary until brickshelf is up and running again.
MetroiD Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 *character off* MOCPages? Brickshelf? Seriously? Those are both as unreliable as they get... Anything would have been a much better choice, not to mention that you can still hide the pics in your flickr stream, and if properly sized, they shouldn't take up that much space?
Brickdoctor Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 You can also start another account. I have two flickr accounts.
badboytje88 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Posted February 21, 2012 I am planning to scrap the part about the one unvote. If you don't agree with this please use the character pm to inform me about your opinion.
MetroiD Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Good. This game could use every bit of dynamic and momentum it could get, considering there's so many of us.
def Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Alright, so you want a little Japanese to pepper your Yakuza experience. Here are some words and phrases that could be useful: くそ! kuso! -damn!/crap! へえええええ？ heeeeeey? -huh? おれ ore- me (for tough guys) わたし watashi (for average people) あたし atashi (for feminine women) ~さま ~sama (respected person title) ~さん ~san (average person title) ~くん ~kun (young man's title) ~ちゃん ~chan (cute girl's title) <please, call me Norio-sama ) お父さん otosan -father 神様 kami-sama -God (that is, Mr. God) そろそろ soro-soro -It's about time to start/go やっと！ yatto -At last!
Tamamono Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Alright, so you want a little Japanese to pepper your Yakuza experience. Here are some words and phrases that could be useful: Thanks, def! I'll definitely be using a few of those! I don't know if this is the correct form (and I don't know what the Hiragana character for it is), but isn't 'brother' 'onii-san' and 'sister' 'nii-san'?
Fugazi Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 On my part, I am even trying out a new catch phrase... Scum or not paying attention... No, that has no rhythm. Scum or naive... No, that has no zazz. Scum or confused... Very funny, def-chan!
def Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks, def! I'll definitely be using a few of those! I don't know if this is the correct form (and I don't know what the Hiragana character for it is), but isn't 'brother' 'onii-san' and 'sister' 'nii-san'? Oniisan is good for brother, but sister is Oneesan. But both are just for older siblings. Younger siblings just go by their name, though there's a different word for brother and sister for both meaning younger. Family words in Japanese confuse me still a fair bit since there's a word for members in your family (ie. mom), for people outside your family (my mom), and for others families (your mom), as well as just family relations in general (mothers). I just gave up. Confession, I don't know the name of any of my in-laws except my younger sister in law, because my wife uses her name. And I simply avoid referring to them by name when I see them it's been a few years now, I wonder if my wife has noticed

The Legonater Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Sorry for beign so late, everyone. There was an unexpected heavy snowfall, and so my satellite went out.
ADHO15 Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Sorry for my absence so far, everyone. I've had a busy day today and haven't had chance to catch up on five pages worth of reading. Hopefully I'll be up to speed by tomorrow morning.
def Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Guys, I might be there at the start, but not for the night( GMT) so don't point the finger of suspicion at me. Sorry for beign so late, everyone. There was an unexpected heavy snowfall, and so my satellite went out. Sorry for my absence so far, everyone. I've had a busy day today and haven't had chance to catch up on five pages worth of reading. Hopefully I'll be up to speed by tomorrow morning. If people are going to use the C & D thread as an alibi/excuse for not participating, can we lock this thread? They need to be explaining themselves, however they choose to, in thread.
MetroiD Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Votes so far: Yasu - TheBoyWonder(11): Capt.Redblade, Brickdoctor, Yasuko, Shizuko, Zakura, Jimbutcher, Nightshroud99, VolcanicPanic, Bob, Def, Whitefang \ Surely you must mean RileyC and Pie, not Yasuko and Shizuko?...
ADHO15 Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 If people are going to use the C & D thread as an alibi/excuse for not participating, can we lock this thread? They need to be explaining themselves, however they choose to, in thread. What's the point in that? Butting in there to say something like that would not be taken well. It's out-of-character information that everyone should be able to see, so here seems like the perfect place.
def Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 What's the point in that? Butting in there to say something like that would not be taken well. It's out-of-character information that everyone should be able to see, so here seems like the perfect place. Because it keeps it part of the game. Coming in here to say why you can't participate when more than a few people have noted people not participating isn't an explanation we should consider. Whatever you have to say should be said there. If you're up for lynch, I don't think anybody should be saying, "he said he'd be away for the day yesterday in the C & D thread." I'm not saying you three are scum, but it's a good technique for scum to make 'real life' an alibi for their playing, or avoidance of it. Whether it's locked or not, reasons given here should be frowned on, in my opinion
Eskallon Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Just a note about the vote tally's Badboy, it might be wiser to include people if they make a few letters mistake in the names. It can be hard with a lot of new people to memorise them and it: a) Confuses us all when we look at the votes, and b) makes looking back on the day for vote patterns harder and incorrect.
swils Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Edit touche, Rick. Withdrawn, hopefully not too much damage. Edited February 22, 2012 by swils
Rick Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Badboytje, you certainly draw people to your games that like to play the game outside the day threads.
Hinckley Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 And Noriko-chan better not think she's still Mustafa Nidia, because that was pretty insufferable. Wasn't she Hugh Janus? Not picking on you, just a mafia history point of order. EDIT: Sorry. Looks like I was the one who was mistaken. EDIT 2: Wait, no I wasn't
ADHO15 Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I'm really sorry to have to do this everyone, but I'm going to have to drop out. I've been busier than expected with work lately and I've really been stuggling to find time to catch up with and stay up to date with the thread. With hindsight, I should not have signed up in the first place and I'm sure somebody else could make better use of my role. Thanks for understanding. ADHO
