BotB RP Discussion!
 

Discuss about the Battle of the Bands RP here, and stuff...yeah.

It would seem IHMN is a Vandal. I wonder when the Ostrogoths will show up?

As long as I use translators that don't have a (Odd language here) to English, you can never figure out what I am saying.

Alright, then I'll just treat the language like it is... mindless babbling.

XD.

I have the feeling you're using multiple translators at once, though since I only have the Eldanar and Al Bhed translators, I am unable to decipher your stuff.

I have a wide array, that I won't reveal here, but none of them can translate waht IHMN is saying. I have my suspicions however, and I need to follow up on them.

...which would defeat the purpose of joining up with the other dudes. We already got an antagonist planned...wait, IHMN, does your guy speak English? If not, then I could just imagine some comedy comin' up...*evil laughter*

j/k, of course :D

My guy will speak english, but instead most of the time I will be using random translator, meaning my guy speaks several languages. Sometimes they may be translatable, some times they can't be.

Oh, and he has no inner monologue.

And he isn't evil. He is a crime fighter, just some what insane.

Kinda like Faust form Guilty Gear X? Sweet.

Here's what I could imagine happening if IHMN's guy didn't speak english (I'll call him 'dude' for now):

Dude: Oooga nrarrleff arg!
Johnny: He's trying to say something, I know it!
Thumpman: Charades, maybe?
Dezil: Lemme get my translator...
Dude: Glffnarg trathernack!
Dezil: Here we go! He's saying "Feed me, for I art thine honey of the dew monkey sun."
Johnny: That didn't make sense.
Thumpman: Sounds like a loveletter to me...
*Thumpman gets konked over the head with a kazoo*
Thumpman: ACK!
Dude: DAWQURICKVANK!
Dezil: He says "Gimme an autograph, gluttonous one!"
Johnny: Okay...

I sense much omake coming.

EDIT: Faust in GGXX is my hero. "Na-na-na-nani ga deru ka na?"

Hahaha, that is so true...

Yeah, this is a double post, I don't care...

It would seem FZ has broken the code.

I use different translators for each post you know.

Edit - First two were roughly the same, but now I guess I'll just use completely random translators for every post (Or every couple of words or something)

I only broke the code once, I completely expected you to start being totally random every time now. And I knew it wouldn't translate older ones, just that post. However, I am throughly proud of myself that I did it. Yes, I take pride in the little stupid things I do...

I'm not even going to bother trying to crack the code. it's not worth my time.

Nobody will break THIS code...

Rayalhiem(2) gilastri(3) quaeev(1) renarhiem(2) gilastri(3) quenesta(1)... hilesta(3) sayarthahin(2) xavainayidhal(2) toruneisa(1) calraeev(4) oleva(4) xayithhur(2) pernyaesta(2) lonrinev(1). Faeartaest(4) mayan(4) wilrenatha(4) wenrelunehirkar(4) quilethayisuthay(3) tiluthaehirkuru(1) quayev(1) astranar(2) piryirhal(1) linrunisa(1) othest(4) toryir(4) taeisaetha(1) silathetha(2) onuthaehinkarn(4) tirar(4) valyinhur(1) oreva(4) nirithyishiem(3) zunestyahil(4). Welrenyilhiemkel(3) taryil(4) piryil(4), renyideld(2) wilelda(3) sataanhur(2)...

... Damnit... I'm not even going to try that one... well, at least not after the first translation attempt I tried and realized what you did...

Heh. Triple encoding, one of which is not covered by ANY program...

Okay, enough stupid linguistics shenanigans.

Actually, if you mean the Hanyu Pinyin, there IS a translater for it, but it only does it 1 word at a time, and I don't have the patience or overly foolish pride to try and take on that task...

Sure, go ahead. But bear in mind that the same hanyu pinyin can mean one of many kanji. On top of that, you have to figure out how it comes together.

And now for something completely different.

*Dante explodes*

Right. Now... what are we going to do to the machines? Where else have they popped up?

Let's move back to the RP and not bogus translations, shall we? If you want to make a "Translation Language Club," it doesn't belong here...although I am intrigued at the way you guys do it...

I agree with Mr. V... plus they have a translations club over in general already. Damn kids.

*Pats Mr. V on the back* And intrigued you shall stay, for I shall not reveal the secrets of the semi-master decipherer FZ just yet...

But back to the RP, what are we doing? I assumed that Dezil is following Blyr, so I thought Blyr would find the crash first, then they would both get out and investigate.

EDIT: Bah, that 'Club' seems to have slowed down, and everyone part of it is here anyway. And after certain members threatend machine guns getting invovled, I think it slowed down... of course, I am the only one that understood the threat, but still...

Johnny is trying to annoy Haruko, so in the hangar he goes... and btw, let's just assume Thumpman and Dezil have Johnny's mobile number so he can meet up witht hem in case something big happens, like say Thumpman encounters the terrible Coke Colossus, Father of Vending Machines...

Well, my guy is going back to the hanger for reasons only Forever knows.

It's Giant Robot Time!

And actually, I slowed down at the Pirithgul lorastritinisanar stage because I couldn't find a good translater to translate it back, but I have a passing knowledge of Pirithgul lorastritinisanar on my own, so I have the gist of what your guy is doing.

EDIT: Heh, nice one IHMN, finally finsihed the total translation. Ironically your most noble character ever I think hasn't spoken a word of English yet...

Two doubles posts in one night? It's madness!

So you decide the time to lower your guard over the suspicious guy is when he is standing on the leader of the band... I'm sure Blyr will appreciate you attention to duty... :p

Triple post power of FZ?

And hey, you had the situation under control.

Continuation of my last argument...

It seems fair that to compensate for Blyr God-modding, nameless guy can see Blyr coming, and prepare the counter he did.

Fair enough. I retract my previous, erroneous statement, then.

I vote we just delete everything.

Amen to that.

I some what (Completely) changed my original character if you want tell... Now he is insane, a 'crime fighter', speaks randomly (Not necessarily any language), and is very fast...

If you couldn't figure it out. He still plays the kazoo and didgeridoo though.

Also, he has a belt full of kazoos. Think Batman's utility belt, but everything is shaped like a Kazoo.

I wonder what the kazoos do?

The thread seems to be fixed.

Yup.

My reason for the trampoline tackle: this ain't a serious RP (c'mon, soda machine robots of doom? what'd you expect?), and I saw something funny to do, so...I did it.

Sorry if I screwed up, I'm new at GMing...I'll try not to do that again...

well, the idea that soda machines are attacking is kind of funny.

Eke! I be gone for a day, and you guys get through a thread?!

I am not reading that. Not right now, anyway.

Can anyone fill me in?

PS: Try to add description to your post (No, just placing in song lyrics don't count), its still an RP. Plus, it keeps posts down...usually. Just making a note, this isn't a serious RP (Dr Pepper throwing Fangrils vs Diet Coke Spewing Machines? Come on...and don't get me started on the Gundam pimples) but I certaintly don't want to end up reading something an average pre-schooler could think up and type.

Pre-Schooler: Ooh! I jump and attack.
Others: Where? Who?
Pre-Schooler: There! The guy! Duh!
Others: -_-;

Languages you can expect from me.

Pig Latin, Latin, Dutch, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Proteugese, French, Al-Bhed, Elven, and Kligon.

But if Dante keeps translatoring (And responding), I may just start hitting random buttons.

I think all of those could be translated except Klingon, and that is a hard language to use, because there are only pretty lousy translaters for it. And my guy does still have the translater, he just doesn't respond to all you say since it is so sketchy.

Oh, the one you put up about the GGXX and MvC2 machines I didn't quite get, but it had something to do with 3-D, and SCII not being something compared to those others. Although I do agree, I prefer Guilty Gear to SCII.

AKA: anything he can find a tranlsator for. ^_^;; heheh. What website are you using anyway? www.freetranslations.com ?

EDIT: *offhand* I've always wondered why guys play DDR more than girls. Every time I go to an arcade, I ONLY see guys dancing on the machines..... So I have to go play DoA or SC2 while I wait. ^^;;

In my country, DDR is passe. Now, everyone plays Para Para Revolution, the game where you flick your hands around to score points. Blech. DDR was better. At least you could see the footwork and skill. Paranoia Euro Remix Invisible and Reverse, anyone?

Actually, ignore that list... I have even more languages (Including some asain ones for Dante, but no kanji). Most will be bad (Meaning literal) translations though.

And I think guys play DDR because they think it is a 'work out' (Lazy people), or they think it will help them pick up chicks some how. (In the US)

Probably the same reason why they play it over here. In the end, people are all the same...

Ah well. Chinese I can handle, Japanese is much harder, and Thai/Korean/any dialect will kill me right off. Except maybe Cantonese. We've been insulting each other in Cantonese for so long you can pretty much guess what it means...

Well, it would be a work out if they were doing MAX300 constantly and such. (I saw this one guy get a PERFECT SCORE (triple AS) on MAX300 on heavy... that is nearly impossible, but it was impressive.)

Or maybe girls are just too self-concious to get up on an arcade game and dance where everyone can see them... Most of my friends (who are girls) DDR, but hardly any of them are comfortable with DDRing in an arcade... *shrugs*

I love dancing in the arcade because 1. sometimes it's fun when people are watching, unless you screw up really bad. or 2. because the at-home version is nothing like the real game.

Anyhoo, enough about DDR.

How often is IHMN's guy (can't remember his name) going to actually speak english? (heheh I could make Jill speak "Hutt" from Star Wars, my brother has a English-to-Hutt phrase book somewhere.... ^^;; hehe)

If everyone suddenly and mysteriously starts speaking an odd language, I'm saying right now, I'm speaking in Swedish Chef.

Und iff yuoo dun't theenk I cun du it, joost try me-a. Bork Bork Bork!

Also, it would be very slow if you spoke hutt. I tried to find an online translater and couldn't, so you would have to look it up word by word...

I wouldn't DDR, it seems boring (And yes I have before). If I did, I would purposely go over to the other persons side and mess them up (Or just push them). That seems more fun.

And here is how I see it. Guys = Idiots, do not mind being made a fool of (Though will get bashed heavily by other guy friends).

Girls = Not idiots, do not like being made a fool of/part of a joke. So no DDRing since chances of messing up are high.


And Dent (That is what he was named) will randomly speak english when I feel like not translating something.

After a while, it gets to the point where the only unique guy is the one who speaks plain English...

EDIT: Blarg, IHMN posted and messed up what i wanted to say.

Ah, DDR is good for either gender as long as you're good at it.

Ain't that the truth...

Oh, and I've got a Hutt translator by the way (And Wookie)

Wookiee? I'd like to see that.

EDIT:

Blarg, this time Celes posted and messed me up... And I can't think of anything witty to say so that's all you'll get from me...

EDIT, THE SECOND:

On second thought, she didn't really mess me up, apart from the fact that I wanted to comment on the DDR, but couldn't think of anything sensible to say beside "If you're good, you're good."

Calling me an idiot because I dance DDR in the arcade sometimes, are you? Heh. Oh well.
DDR is fun, but only if you can do difficult songs IMPO, because if you're stuck doing a dance that just goes: "Right........ right.......... left......... up..... (etc etc) it would just get boring beyond belief, but the harder ones actually take some skill and coordination. ^^;;

ANYHOO (I thought I said enough about DDR)

I was just joking about the Hutt-speaking thing. I don't even know where the phrase book is. The only think Jill knows is a LITTLE german, (about as much as I would know without any help) but she has a reason: she took a few classes of german in school. ^^;;
Other than that, Jill is going to be your normal english-speaking person.

And now for something completely different.

*Dante explodes*

Well, i'll be vanishing tonight, so is there anything we can do to make it segue away smoothly in-game? Something not as permanent as death or quadriplegia?

We could kill you off, and store your brain in a jar, and when you get back Dezil will install it into a robot for you!

Or you could do it the easy way and think up something normal... Maybe you have to go to some far off land and look for the secrets of the Robot Vending Machines? I have no clue, that was random...

You could get captured by an evil vending machine. Or.... your character might have some "private school business" to take care of first. Or maybe he has a conflict in his normal life. Or Dent could get angry at him and lock him in a far of closet/room and we don't find him (or he doesn't find a way out) until Dante comes back...

Just throwing out ideas.

Or you could have another dude play as Johnny for you.

I'm sure Ecurt knows a way, though. PM him, if you'd like.

Personally I was thinking of Johnny being sucked in BikiniSuicideFrisbee Land, but then he'd have no incentive to come back...

Warning, obscure Sluggy Freelance reference detected!

If you going to whip out stuff like that, stick him in the DoP and then he would love to come back... but then he does have that nasty curse to worry about...

Or that GoFoTron dimension, pre annhialation of course...

I vote that he is trapped in Salt Lake City with Eric Tomaszewski and Andrew 'Kiki' Farnum.

Dude, that is fucking sick...

So, you've heard the tale I see...

No, I googled it pretty quick though.

It's funny, but it's also pretty sick. I think they made it into the Darwin awards also as an Honerable Mention.
