MOTHERFU*#&$(#@&@#(*

So yeah, beta won’t start for a while…

Sorry, bear with me.

Beta Closed

Beta applications closed.

I have also used an automatic path module to create more meaningful paths for the site, but some links may be broken. Please report them below.

We have 22 beta testers at the moment.

Edit: Broke the site for a bit, fixed now.

Anime and… translation…?

My life update.
Nothing much in my real life. Started watching some new animes.
Fate Stay Night being one of them. It had a lot of moe scenes (Ilya hugging Shirou, Sakura bondage, etc…) but overall, not too good –;
EXCEPT episode 14! That episode was awesome. Especially when the music “Emiya” started, it sent chills up my spine from excitement!

Also started watching Utawarerumono, but stopped watching after a few episodes. It wasn’t bad but rather really good, and that’s exactly why I stopped watching. I now want the game, so I’m gonna wait watching on the anime until I get the game and play it.

Also watched upto episode 4 of Higurashi no Nakukoroni.
I played the first chapter of the game already, but they animated it REAL WELL!!
All the important stuffs were in there.
Oh yeah, I’m watching all these animes all of a sudden cause I get REALLY distracted whenever I try to translate the Hscene (it’s a real pain)
On terms of translation, H scene is almost done (not too fast when I’m doing like 1 line per hour…)
but now, I need to rest translation while I go play the rest of Higurashi (that I have ignored playing upto now) since the anime renewed my spirit for the game!!
Chapters 2 through 6… that’s like only a couple all-nighters, right? ^^

EDIT3: Almost done with Higurashi… I want to finish it, but don’t want this time to end…

Any other good animes out there?
(Or just yell at me to keep translating instead of watching anime…)

…… Why does my life update consist of only anime and games… AGAIN?
I swear, I’ll tell everyone I have a girlfriend like chendo on my next blog post!

… I guess I won’t be posting blogs ever again. orz

beeetaaaa?

We have 17 beta testers now and there’s still four days before applications close. I’m a lot stricter this time, so anyone who doesn’t get a reply, no hard feelings.

Of course, if we do need more beta-testers, I’ll ask for some more, and possibly review the ones that didn’t pass the first one.

And I found this as part of the reason why they deleted the mirror moon wikipedia article.

They haven’t actually even finished translating anything yet, never mind whether translating an obscure H-game is notable. –UsaSatsui 12:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

I found it absolutely hillarious. Of course, nice to see that Haeleth and Gp32 were defending us, thank you ^_^

Well, it was deleted because it broke WP:V and WP:VAIN, so maybe when we actually release Tsukihime and someone else writes the article, we won’t have our own little article on wikipedia ๐Ÿ™

chendo – out

mirror moon looking for beta-testers

There only seems to be a few people from the first beta alive, so we’re looking for beta-testers for Tsukihime. If you have contacted me about it earlier, you will have to do so again.

Interested? Head over to the Application Form.

Any beta-testers from the first beta who are ready to test but hasn’t received an email from me, please contact me.

EDIT: Applications close Friday, May 19th, GMT+10. So your best bet is to submit the application on Thursday.

Tsukihime Beta-Tester Application

To apply for the position of Tsukihime Beta-Tester, you must have all of the following:

  • An excellent understanding of English grammar, but also understanding that Tsukihime was written as a visual novel, and hence incorrect grammar is best used for certain situations.
  • Plenty of free time.
  • Good understanding of Tsukihime (the anime itself is not enough).
  • Ability to figure out how to do things without asking for help.
  • Ability to read thoroughly (not skim).
  • Ability to write detailed bug reports.
  • Liking of repetitive, possibly boring and spoilerful work.
  • Ability to beta-test H-scenes. Legally.
  • Ability to decode Engrish.

If you have all of the above, send this form in an email to me. Finding the email is part of the test.

Name/Alias:
Username on mirrormoon (if any):
MSN Messenger (if any):
Location/Timezone:
Previous experience in testing (if any):

Fix these sentences up and include any assumptions you have made:

A.
ther wasnt anybody around at home he said
B.
because its too dangerous, were going home
C.
i saw that monsters we’re every where. the one in front of me scared me, it’s fangs dripping.
D.
Of course. Saber’s is so tight even on my finger. If you do it like that, Shirou would certainly hate you. He’ll say that it was just painful and it didn’t feel good at all.
E.
Good evening! This is the hint corner that is the supporter of all of you that wants to die instantly, the Tiger Dojo!
F.
Not forgetting or denying the past.
That the only way to make use of what has gone away is to acknowledge them—-
G.
There’s no hesitation in Saber now.
She nods silently and runs to the school building like a wind.

If you don’t get a reply in a week, you didn’t pass.

busy as hell

Sorry I haven’t been updating this blog, but I’ve been busy.

I have at least one assignment due each week (usually 2) before finals start, I have my job which I haven’t been able to do, then I have my girlfriend who’s really clingy ^_^;; and then there’s Tsukihime beta.

It’s not likely I’ll be able to get the beta going until the end of semester. I might have some time in my exam block, but it’s not very likely either.

Sorry for the long wait… I figured that everyone has waited almost two years since this project began, everyone should be able to wait a bit more >_>

It’ll be done. Eventually ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Tsukihime Status

Insertion is finally complete after having to update our translations to the 2.1 version of the script. Expect beta to start soon.

All beta-testers, please contact me via email regarding your availability. Judging by the amount of people that are able to test, we may be looking for more beta testers.

Edit: By the way, I’ve noticed we need a favicon. If anyone is able to create one for us that’ll be great ^_^

EDIT: And by beta-testers, I mean EXISTING beta-testers. I am waiting for the availability of existing ones first before I consider getting any new ones. I am deleting all emails regarding beta-testing if you’re not an existing tester.

Edit: Thanks for soulanger for the favicon ^_^
