We had to rush my grandma to the hospital last night. She's still in critical condition, so I'll be spending as much of my time as I can with her at the hospital. If rob or someone else could take over Sayu for a few days, I'd appreciate it.

Crap, my message didn't go through. I typed it all up then hit the "Add reply" button above instead of the "Post" button below.... XD



Anyway, I was saying I've fallen way behind on Aichan's blog, sorry about that... And though I've been continuing to post from where I left off, it seems like I'll never catch up. So I'm going to get translating her latest posts and just do backlog posts when I have some free time.



Also, Aichan started using emoticons T__T Can I get those emoticons added to the emoticons on the blog? Would I just post them here and someone will add them to the blog?



TnB: Hope your grandma's all right!! My grandma's 90, and she caught pneumonia earlier this year. It was scary, but she pulled through.

I translate 3 of her old one's tonight to lighten your load.

Just post them here and let me know what you want the short code to be. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I like the new side layout. But...



It's kind of an anal retentive thing. I realize the names are listed under the groups alphabetically, but can we list them according to their seniority in the group? Seems more in the HP spirit that way.

maize, I just did the oldest 3 since I know you like to cover all of the posts....but you have like 30 left to do. I'll try to help you cover some lost ground tomorrow too.

Ooops... I had been working on the MM backstage one too, which I see we both posted. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /sleep.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='-_-' />; Oh well. XD



Thanks for the help eri! I totally meant to do more translations tonight, but OMG I got my cell phone bill today... And there was a $100 charge for 12 MEGABYTES. 12!!! ... MEGABYTES. I spent an hour and a half on the phone with my stupid phone company on hold and explaining and questioning and arguing... And now it's past midnight and I'm so freakin' tired. But I got the stupid $100 removed! Seriously, do they think I would buy a smartphone and go without a data plan? I'm not an idiot. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /sleep.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='-_-' />;

[rob]

TnB I hope your grandmother gets well soon! I'll try to do as many Sayu blogs as possible!



P.S. Love the new sidebar, but could we put the leaders at the top followed by the members by age?

I'm PHP retarded. But sorry, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do it. (orderby)





Glad you got the phone bill taken care of maiZe! I would help with your Takahashi back logs if I could. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/meh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';/' />





Also, I installed a mobile theme for the site; I don't know if it's worth it. At least it's easier to read?

Stuff like that is always worth it. For example, I don't use RSS or mobile viewing, but people do. And anything that makes it more accessible in various ways is always good.



Does it just load automatically when viewing on a mobile device or something?

[strawberryjam]

Yes, it loads by default and you can turn it off. I think emoticons don't work that well unless they were put as an image rather than short code. I didn't look too deep how it works because the net is seriously slow on the ipod. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' />

[Sherry]

Hi everyone, still remember me? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... pyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />

I'm terribly terribly sorry for disappearing so sudden. Long story so I won't get into it.. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... smooch.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='=3=' />

I see that Reina blog translation has stopped. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' /> Sorry rokun, I read that you've taken plenty blogs already.



I still intend to continue posting translation, but after this long, should I post the newest entry or continue from the last posted translation? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... unsure.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':unsure:' />





Once again, I'm sorry. I hope I still can join you guys. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... pyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />

And lastly, I might not be able to be online that often, so translations might be delayed.

[aine]

Good to see you back Sherry. Feel free to start translating from the newest posts as a priority and backtrack from where you left off if you have some spare time and will. Maybe just skim through the missed posts and see if there's anything more significant than the usual Reina drivel. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />



And I know it's not always possible, but whenever it is please let us know if you're planning to disappear or take a break for whatever reason. Thanks. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... smooch.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='=3=' />

[Sherry]

I didn't plan on disappearing, really. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' />

Alright, thanks. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... joyful.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':joyful:' />



Last thing. I checked the new design of the blog, and it's great. I won't spam the front page even if I posted a whole bunch of posts, right? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... >/rofl.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[strawberryjam]

I missed my twin Sherry. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... pyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />



edit: Nope, your posts are unable to spam the front page now! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' />

[rob]

Welcome back Sherry, so glad to see Reina will be translated again!



I hope your time away was nothing serious and again, it's great to have you back!

[tsukinobyouin]

The new layout looks really nice berry!



Thanks everyone for the well wishes. I think I'm okay to take back over Sayu. I'm not sure how things will progress, but for now there's a lot of watching and waiting so I'd rather have something to keep my brain occupied. Thanks rob for taking over for a bit.

[momoirosaya]

^ I hope your Grandma gets better soon!

[al kusanagi]

We need to find some more C-ute fans. Airi and Chisa are being translated, but the other three are pretty good reads too, especially Nakky.

Hey no problem, anytime!



I'm very glad she stopped using those animated icons and went back to the text ones!!

[momoirosaya]

I'll be gone Friday to Sunday. Pretty much all weekend. I'll be bringing my laptop with me so I might be able to translate, but I'm not sure since I don't know what my schedule will be.

[/quote]

Or Berryz fans! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> If someone took over some of the other Berryz Serends, for example Momo (who hasn't posted for several days now, but suddenly has 3 entries today <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nfused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> ), and did them on a regular basis, I could pick up some more C-ute as well. ^^; I'm already doing Airi and Chisa... Mai and Nakky are generally short and quick, though Maimi tends to be quite long and might take some commitment.



Sherry, WB! :D I could help a bit with new or older Reina posts, although I see Reina! Project was generally updated over that time... Are you just kinda copying from there? If so, that might be easier than me translating all those older posts from scratch...



Though they've been a bit late, I've managed to generally keep up the last few days, and things should be getting pretty much back to normal starting next week again.



Edit: In addition, could this emoticon be added to the list if possible? ^^

I'd take Momoko except I just took a look and she's icon city. That is my pet peeve I guess <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> I could translate Yajima since she's lengthy.

[eri]

Question: does "norikata" have a different slang meaning in reference to concerts or fandom?



She's talking about not knowing how to do stuff at her first concert for this artist...

のりかたとかも

あんまりよくわからなくて

http://ameblo.jp/yuuka-maeda-blog/entry ... 50459.html

[rob]

It can mean to join in, so I think you translated it fine, she says she didn't know how to join in, which is basically all the fans doing the dances or actions from the songs, similar to H!P fans would do at their concerts.



TL;DR You nailed it <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... umbsup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Sorry, I know emoticons aren't the most convenient still. I'll try my best to come up with another solution. I tried to add another emoticon menu just for gree emoticons, but it wasn't successful. When Zaeleus has more time, I'm sure we can come up with something. I think his summer vacation should be coming up.

The category page is sorted by girl date and yes, the list on right is by translation date.

What did you prefer?

[eri]

So, I went and translated a Yajima Maimi blog entry just to see how it'd go. I think I'd rather cover Nakajima...because SHE USES NO EMOTICONS <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> So let me know, rokun, if you want to reallocate the blog load.



Also...Cute members all share 1 blog? That's overly complicated <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> That mean's rokun is reading all of the blog but then parsing out the one's to translate? Too bad there is no other way just to get 1 member at a time. This is also why I don't really translate Abe's blog regularly...there is no way to get notice she wrote on her blog unless I manually go over to it. Am I overly lazy...?

[rokun]

Go ahead and do Nakky's :D I haven't been getting around to it lately. She's pretty short and sweet <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> Might even be able to catch up with backlog. I'll keep trying to keep up with Airi's and Chisa's like I have (I know I'm late with everything today >.> been a busy day, will probably get to them tomorrow).



And also, yeah it is kinda all in one blog... but you don't have to read through each entry completely to get to the others at least. I've gotten used to it. ^^; Most of the girls use the same titles/beginnings all the time, so it's not that hard to pick up the ones I'm looking for at a bit of a glance.
