The promised thread, me and taleness took the liberty and scanlated the banner or whatever it is.

While we wait for the event I'd love to hear any suggestions about how to make this work better, although I apologize beforehand, my Christmas dinner is waiting for me in a while and I'll be busy for a few hours, but I hope I'll be here before the event starts.

I thought I'd clarify before the start that I'm always more than happy to get feedback concerning my own translations, I'm doing my best as we are all doing but mistakes happen, so please don't hesitate to tell me something is wrong or suspicious or generally doesn't sound right, I certainly won't be mad.


I'm GMT +1, should be here some three hours before the event starts.

Sadly, I will miss the beginning since I'll be asleep during this time but let's hope I won't miss a lot (I wake up at 10.30 a.m. GMT+1, usually) !

CST/GMT-6 here: It seems the first update will occur when I'll be out for a Christmas Eve service, so pbjsammich and I will be gone for a bit. But we should be available a couple hours after that and working on a mirror site for the event. And of course we're happy to help with typesetting. We'll be working into the early morning hours for us, then probably sleep for a while and continue on our Christmas Day (I'm not sure yet when our Christmas meal will be).

I'm just going to add in our contact info, since I'm not sure what everyone else is comfortable using. Of course LJ messages are fine.

owo thanks for adding this. I'm excited!

[rikkaidai-fuji.livejournal.com]

(GMT+8) I'll be around most of the time but the very first one(maybe). I can't translate but I will most likelty take the translations here and mirror them to the 'official' event trade. I might be able to do some typeset if I can kick my sis away from the desktop

[y4nderenka.livejournal.com]

Reporting for duty! It's a little after midnight JST, and I'll be on call for any stealth updates!

MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE! REMEMBER, THE BLOODBATH COMES BUT ONCE A YEAR, BUT HETALIA FANDOM BROHOOD IS 24/7/365!

/already in the spirit

[spaceinvaderdud.livejournal.com]

I'm here and tingling with excitement!

I'm HST/GMT -10 so I'll be wide awake when the party gets started!

[shadow-bluemoon.livejournal.com]

when is that in US pacific coast time?

[nameru-ja-nai.livejournal.com]

About 5:00pm c:

[nameru-ja-nai.livejournal.com]

PST, (GMT -8)

I should be online an hour after the event starts with my editing software up and ready to go~<3 Hopefully I won't be needed in the dinner preparations tonight ;;

[rayquaza384.livejournal.com]

8 PM?
Perfect. >:3

[hikari-kaitou.livejournal.com]

That'll be 7:00 PM my time. I'm not sure I can be here, but I'll try. I liked the idea of having translators sign up for shifts. Did that idea fall through?

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

No, the idea stayed, I hoped it could work within a thread like this, that's why I wanted to wait until it's closer to the event for people to ask if they are available.

[juandalyn.livejournal.com]

2am? I'm fine with that, and my family is coming tomorrow so I can be online between the courses~

[heliotroper.livejournal.com]

Ooh, so I'm pretty sure that's 8 p.m. today for me? So excited!

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

Update 25.12. 10 a.m. JST

I can do the translation but I'll be glad to have another translator to work with me.

Will manage the scanlation too if necessary.

[y4nderenka.livejournal.com]

I can help! :D

[imitationflower.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, the great feeling of a new thread.

I wonder how this event will turn out this year ~

[seraphoftales.livejournal.com]

isnt it time? where's the party thread? guys, i am so ready

[scdshuton.livejournal.com]

Time now? *looks around*

[adregia.livejournal.com]

Hi!
I'm willing to help scanlating the bloodbath--I don't celebrate Christmas, and my timezone is GMT+7 (JST-2) so of course I'll be wide awake when the event start, which should be anytime now...

My GTalk is zivya.syifa@gmail.com--I should be available almost anytime :D

[adregia.livejournal.com]

Update 25.12. 11.30 a.m. JST

There's also this little doodle stating the time...


uh, I hope I'm doing this right?

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

I already translated this one but thank you, this is a good reminder that we need to keep track of things already translated.

[hikari-kaitou.livejournal.com]

Is anyone doing the captions right now? If not I could take care of them...

[y4nderenka.livejournal.com]

Captions, meaning the dialogue? This update's been translated, and it's being compiled now. Thanks, though!

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

Update 25.12. 1:30 .m. JST

I'm going to sleep, hikari_kaitou is taking over.

[jammerlea]

pbjsammich and I are back home if there's any typesetting you'll need help with, hikari_kaitou.

[jammerlea]

Where did the scanlation for this image go? http://www.hetarchive.net/scanlations/xmas2011/hajimaruyoo.jpg

[jammerlea]

Also, if anyone wants to fill in, there are a couple lines of text from the first update that were missed. You can see them here for context: http://www.hetarchive.net/scanlations/xmas2011/2011_12.php

Germany: そういえば去年時差なくなってなかったか？

Italy: ヴヴぇヴぇ…俺んち魔女…すぴー

Update 25.12. 3:30 PM JST

I can get this one if no one else wants to...
/nervous

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

Don't be nervous! Just take your time, there's no rush. If you'd like me to scanlate, I could take care of that bit, at least, if it's necessary.

[hikari-kaitou.livejournal.com]

I think I should be going to bed now so if someone could take care of the next update, I'd appreciate it ;w;

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

Sleep well!

[spaceinvaderdud.livejournal.com]

Update 25.12. 6. P.M. JST

I'd like to handle this, if anyone doesn't mind.

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

Go for it! It's too early for me to handle anything properly.

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

Just checking, was the last Switzerland strip translated and the event comm mods didn't notice or does it still wait for scanlation?

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

Translated and scanlated! I believe y4nderenka has already posted it but mods either went to bed or haven't noticed it.
