That is the funny thing about CRONICAL astmatic bronchitis - I do have it but I hardly ever feel it anymore. The cronical part is not as bad as it sounds.

Cool, after some downtime the site is back online. And I´m the first to recognize

So I sit down in the bar, drink some beer and wait who will join me...

Sorry to tell Alfie, but I noticed it a while ago

The database was updated by our host if I am correct.. It may cause some problems, so if you encounter any non working things, please report them. I'll ponder if we need a fix then...

Well when a door closes... Im home sick with nausea and fever.... At least the GF is feeling well enough today to take a little care of me.
I hope to feel better soon, as I am quite quesy just sitting her for a second. However I wanted to share in here that I now have two freeware game jobs. Translator jobs for Until Im gone and 5 days a stranger.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY USUL !!!

Where's everyone?

/me wipes the dust off Birthday Cake

Talking about ailments I had my ear blocked with wax recently. Nothing serious (I thought so), but together with this I got an infection, so I was deaf for about 5 days. Only in one ear fortunately.

That reminded me of the old golden times when I was wearing cap in winter.

Oh, I am here =)

I have been setting up some lil testarea for development purposes... And I can say that I have made some progress regarding the goals for next version

There's of course still tons to do, but I expect (english) review system to be finished in time =} <before end of march>

Ok, let´s open some beer and celebrate Usul´s birthday...

Happy Birthday, Usul!!!

Maz · Post by **Maz** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 8:08

Oh, indeed! How did I forget?

Happy Birthday Usul!!!

Post by **Chroelle** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:25

An I'll join in. HAppy Birthday Usul.

Got my new computer and screen yesterday. Lousy timing... Howcome you always get a new computer delivered when you have absolutely no time to sit down and play around with it. Either you are busy with work or you are sick like me...
I hope to be able to at least set it up later today...

Also Maz, could we talk about testing...? If you are available please contact me on ICQ or MSN or something... I am home today and will check in from time to time...
I really want to get the testing done so I can start adding games again. And I need you to walk me through the testing...

Happy birthday Usul!!! Hope you have enough money to buy us a round of drinks!

Chroelle I hope you get well, and have the time to play with your new pc (I know it's difficult to control yourself when you have something new and you cannot play with it!).

Maz · Post by **Maz** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:38

Umm.. The testarea code may still have some problems concerning new templatesystem changes.. (first attempts to make multiling* possible). Those should not be too though to fix, but it requires some time.

Umm.. And I tested edit game info tool last night.. It still has problems and is currently disabled. Oh, no. Sorry. I did not test it.. It was the reviews validation I tested

I am feeling a bit dumb

Anyhoo, I am at work atm, and have no time... I may have some time at evening, but I am not sure. I'll check out the ICQ if I can

Simply send me a message whenever you can... I will look eventually and write back.

I decided to look into some translation of the freeware games I am working on until then. That Until I'm gone game looks great... And I will get into the credits! 5 days a stranger I am a bit stuck on, so I think I might need to go over the game to see if I can find a better way to translate.

I hope to be able to at least set up my computer later on, and have my two comps running side by side. Now that would be a goal for today!

Get well soon, Chroelle! Happy Belated Birthday, Usul!

If you need any help with a specific translation or something like that, Chroelle, feel free to ask.

Post by **Chroelle** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 15:44

Dont worry

I thought about asking plenty of times when I got stopped by a word. But most of the time it isn't word to word translation but meaning from english to Danish. For example it can be rather hard figuring out if a sentence like: "Get out of here" means "you must be kidding me and I dont believe you", or "Please leave the room in a hurry." If you haven't played the game it gets a bit harder...

But actually 5 Days proved to be harder to translate than Until Im gone. Mostly due to the sheer amount of text. There is quite a lot more text so far in 5 days than in Until Im gone. But maybe I only received part of the translation so far.

Scythe · Post by **Scythe** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 17:10

Indeed. Context sensitive wordings are hard to translate when you don't know the context.

in any case, don't hesitate if you get stuck, it's no trouble.

Post by **Chroelle** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 19:19

Maybe we can sign up for translation jobs together in the future? That would make it a lot easier to go over more projects.

Scythe · Post by **Scythe** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 20:12

Well, full job translation might be more than I have time for, but if you want to sublet part of the work, I can possibly manage.

Post by **Chroelle** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 22:15

Well I might take you up on that. Did you play 5 days a stranger? The translation file is enourmous and I am getting through it slowly but effectively. A hand would be welcome.
