Transcendence

 

Welcome to Transcendence! <3

It's nice to meet you. :3  I'm Tear, and I'm a rolly polly Editor 'round these parts. I'm also rather addicted to Kdramas... what one(s) are you watching at the moment? Any recommendations on the new season? :3

Come visit us in the CB - (it gets so lonely sometimes ;0;) - or the IRC channel. I'm usually lurking there in the wee hours of the US morning. If you ever have any questions - the staff here is fantastic, so don't be afraid to ask! :3

(I betchu that you will meet my fellow lurkers Mistress TearDrop and Angel dearie very very soon! XD)

Why, I have no idea what you're talking about, Aurelia. I most certainly do not have a Certified Lurker Card tucked away in my web browser permissions.

Not at all.

I don't know where to start with Doctor Who. 

With your TV tastes, it would be best to start with season 1 of the 2005 series. :3

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!! That is awesome!! :DDDD

Welcome to Transcendence! <3

I'm Tear, and I'm happy to see another QCer join~! :D  Huzzah for fellow science nerd! Well, I suppose I'm a former science nerd, but the formulas and random factoids never quite leave you. Also, congratulations on your tye-dye run! :D I hope you enjoy your time here!! Feel free to poke me anytime. :3

Hello there! :3

So, I probably missed this as I'm also a slowpoke, but does that mean that you've been accepted as a Quality Checker? :D  It's nice to meet you, Alejandra! I'm Tear, and I'm a rolly polly Editor. :3 Spanish was my first language... and I also have a hard time writing it well (accents? what're those? :D), so if you ever need someone to fail!practice Spanish with you, just let me know!

Ohohohoho~!  Hello, Yuu~! <3 Welcome to Transcendence~! :D

I'm Tear, and I must admit I'm an avid fan of, well, all of the TV shows you listed. :3 Torchwood is fantastic, although I tend to prefer Doctor Who more. <3 Your bunnies are also very well named, indeed. Translation can be difficult, but I've always found it satisfying in the end. :3 Sadly, I don't know any of the Asian languages enough to translate, so I'm both in awe and grateful for you!

I hope to see you around!

Welcome to Transcendence, Nana-chan~! :DDD

Mmm, I can definitely empathize re: pursuing hot men through anime or manga. ;3 So many men, so little time~! *cough* I mean... HI. :D I'm Tear, and I'm also a rolly polly Editor 'round here. :3 I'm usually awake in the wee hours of the U.S. morning, so if you're here, I'm always available to chat, poke, bother, or what have you. And I have no problem talking for hours about pretty pretty boys~

Good luck with your training!!! I'm sure you're going to love this fantabulous place as much as we do. :3

Welcome to Transcendence!!!

I'm Tear, and I had to tearfully shed my lurker status too, once upon a time. I know it can be hard, but know that we, the Staffies, are here to help you make the transition.



There, there. There, there. You made the right choice. You're doing so well so far!!! We're so proud of you. <3

Don't worry. You can lurk a little between projects. At least until a PM finds you. :3

Maaaaaan. I find this introduction so Troublesome! But then, I think that I wouldn't meet Trouble any other way. So...



Hello there! ;)  I'm Tear, the punny Editor. I'm also rather late in greeting you, so sorry! I also enjoy a lot of vocaloid, and I'm glad you're not a troll! <3

Welcome to Transcendence! Good luck with your training, and I hope to see you around!

Welcome to Transcendence!



I'm Tear, and I'm a rolly polly Editor 'round these parts as well. :D I'm usually awake at odd hours, so I rarely talk to my fellow countrymen during normal hours. ;-; I also abuse smileys and emotes to a horrifying degree. Please feel free to ignore them. ^^;

Code Breaker~! <3 I adore that manga so hard. I've been trying to get into Last Game, but although the first chapter had tons of promise, I can't quite seem to get past the first few chapters. Any suggestions? ^^; <3

Also!  Yay Mr. Children fan! I <3 Jrock, although I have to admit that I haven't raided YouTube for it in a while.

The secret to cleaning quickly: experience, hotkeys, and a whole lot of laziness

xEDIT: ...and caffeine. I forgot that one xD

^ Actions are the chocolate to my PS chocolate cupcake.

It definitely depends on the raws and how much SFX you're cloning out. When working on JTT I varied from 10 minutes to 1.5 hours per page. ...But that's also because there's 85 BILLION SFX (number may be an approximation) in that friggin' manga and I'm a perfectionist. :X

I am hoping to increase my speed, however. I'd like to be able to do a chapter in 2-3 days, regardless of the painful redraws. <3

Papa kitty~! 

That's because I'm her ass(istant) for the week. :3

OHMIGOSHNESS  Lily I would be honoured to be a child of yours~

*Felt like she wasn't wanted as a child earlier *

Does this mean I get another sister/brother? :D

THANK YOU! :D



I must confess, I had lurked around the forums enough to enjoy said fishbot references. :3  I'm glad I finally got to meet the Fishbot Mistress! <3 And yes, your pronunciation matches my head-speak. :3 (Unless I can make a pun out of tearing up over a tear in reality. >D)

Teacups.

You have no life because you reinstated this thread. >.>

 

Welcome to Transcendence, Jenny! :D

I'm Tear, and I'm an Editor here. \o/ for new Typesetter~! I hope you'll love it here as much as I do. :3 Also, I completely understand how passing the test can suddenly blast your mood to the moon. :D

Feel free to ignore the overused smileys and hearts when I type. It's a bad habit, I'm afraid. ._. I'm usually rolling around here at odd hours, but I hope I'll get to see you soon! :3

Ayu-chi~! :D



Thank you for the welcome~! Such wonderful new blood 'round here. :3

Nope~!  :D

Harr? <3

D: B-B-But I thought that you were with Renny!

 

That makes you as late as I am... orz. <3

Thank you, Icey~!  I was happily nudged towards the FB fun a while back. One day I hope I'll actually learn to check this FB thing... >.>;

Anyway! Thank you for the welcome! \o/

^ I think she's dead until now, because she was awake for 1 and a half days O_O

It ended up as 38 hours, and yes... RL decided that I needed a day away from the internet for sleep and silly adult stuff. :3

Quote from: Renny on May 29, 2012, 08:55
Mommy Tear do you have space for me in you family??

\o/  Of course~! :D  *happily adopts the adorable Renny~*

Look ma, two kids! ;D <3

^ I want to be her daughter

* Tear approves of this statement~ <3

"I see," said the blind man to the tree. "But that is what worries me the most."

As the Magnificent One whipped me into shape with that giant string of emails, this nefarious editor is humbly requesting to trace her lineage back to Her Ladyship. <3

I want to be related to you, Boss Cat~! (Although I'm not a loli... ._.) However! Ayu-chi and Melita are your lovely daughters, no? :3

This group makes me feel like redrawing things... on the other hand, I now find myself adding "baby" to every "fantastic" (baby) I hear/see. >.> I suppose that this video should come with that warning. haha <3

I can't sleep. ;-; And I'm too tired to drag myself out of bed so I can properly reply to people and/or continue cleaning JTT.

 

Welcome, Blaise! :D  I'm Tear, and I'm the silly Editor that's still wet behind the ears. :3 This is also my first time cleaning in a scanlation group, so I totally understand. <3 I'm awake at odd hours, but feel free to poke me anytime!

Good luck on your training~! Blast those dust specks to Bermuda! <3

xEDIT;
Reasons why answering that questions was a waste of my time:
a) Tear is a Traitor.
b) It says in the post that the document has been downloaded 0 times.
c) You could have downloaded it and compared it to your previous downloaded version.
d) The post also says when the attached link was last edited.

Learn your forum-ology, woman.

1. Don't worry, I'll always love you, Lady Lily~
2. The dl count doesn't show on my phone's version of the forum.
3. I'm at work, so I can't dl the new version to compare.
4. I was hoping it would be the same so that when I got home I could just type up the proofread script when I got home instead of having to redo it. :P

A foolish hope, as it turns out. :P

 

Thank you! ;-; Vera is a sexy, sexy beast, so I say she did most of the work just *looking* awesome.

Depending on free time, I might study ShineyShiney's gorgeous work attempt this again sometime this summer. >.<

Quote from: Furgeson on May 23, 2012, 17:30
Updated again! I'll post a convenient check-list for new proofreaders to use :)

Much appreciated. <3 Also, did you update the link in the last 12 hours? (Aka, do I have to dl it again?)

\o/ Ayu-chi~! <3



Welcome to Transcendence! (Or perhaps it should be a congratulations on your transcendence?)

I'm happy we have another of the Boss' progeny joining our adorable ranks. :3 And I must agree... We are uber cute. Sometimes. The other times we are insatiably sweet. 

I hope you enjoy it here!

*creeps in*

Well, I wasn't planning on (ever) posting in this section, but I was going through my photobucket today and found the one manga coloring that went (fairly) decently for me and figured I'd add to the mix. I dare not say just how long this picture took me... I'm a slowpoke on normal things; trying something for the first time takes at least a zillion times longer.

Also... this was probably ~4 years ago, while I was a lurker on a different manga forum... (Epic Lurker, that's me!)

Anyway!  Here it is!  The character is Vera from Veritas, if anyone is familiar with the manga.  If I find any more fun things in the bucket, or if I actually start attempting to color again, I'll post them here as well. :3

[spoiler][/spoiler]

Hmm, how about holiday themed?  Maybe summer/fall/winter/spring kind of thing? Possibly have a contest for header/background/colors every three to four months? People could vote for their favorite via poll and it would give our lovely artists something to work towards, as well. :D

\o/   

Juvia turned out wonderfully! :D <3  Her gloves are awesome~ :3

Possibly the addition of an entire banquet of sweets that L may only dream of? :D

Death Note is <3~!

 

Yay for working on your first chapter! :D  I look forward to (maybe? possibly?) TSing your PRed script in the near(ish) future! <3

I'm glad to hear that you're settling in well. :3 We manga addicts must stick together you know...

Quote from: Furgeson on May 20, 2012, 02:09
... >_> Don't scare the new people, you cold-blooded traitor. I will eat you. I will eat your proofreading test and then I will eat you.

Your feedback is my Cheerio's, Lady of the Lake. I'll eat it first for breakfast, and then I'll nom nom nom your proofreading test like tomato soup and grilled cheese. :3

Don't be sad. :3  You'll have the opportunity to snap your correcting whip of DOOM at me soon enough. 

Quote from: Furgeson on May 20, 2012, 02:24
Wow, I totally didn't notice how nerdy you really were until seeing this thread ;o
Well, I guess it's only natural that the late, lazy, lethargically lively, little lawbreaker is also a nerdy slowpoke. Goes with the lazy and late + oxymoron part, I suppose. *puts on her magnificent spectacles and frowns*

...And about those fish analogies you keep bringing up, I think you and Aurelia are going to get along. Have fun with your assignments, Tear! I don't want to be grouped with you, but I'm going to have to apologize for my slightly late welcome D;

   

I hope I can work with you soon, too, Lady Lily. <3

So pretty~! 

I especially like how you coloured the eyes~!  They look really sharp. <3

Welcome~! \o/

I'm Tear, and feel free to poke me if you see me lurking about the forms. (I lurk too often for my own good, sometimes...) <3

Ooooh~ I'm a sucker for hand-made flyers, so I totally understand. :D  I'm glad your friend directed you to us, even if she is no longer here! (;-; staffies~) I love your artwork so far!    Good luck on your Editor training - I'm sure it'll go smoothly! :D <3 <3 <3 <3

xEDIT: Because Tear can read.

\o/ Anything for my Editor Twin in Training. 

Getting... married... 27...
I- I- I mean!  CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :D     I'm so happy for you!!! :3  Make sure you get some wonderful photos of you, the groom, and the signed death warrant marriage certificate! Ceremony or no, it's still a happy occasion to remember. <3

... I, on the other hand, am currently watching The Girl Who Still Wants To Marry. I find it rather fitting since I also just turned 27 and currently have no marriage prospects.

Welcome the Transcendence team! I just finished my editor training and have finally got my first assignment so I'm pretty excited and happy. I hope you do well on your training!

Tangent, but oh well:
Congratulations, Roze!!! <3 I just finished my first chapter, so I'll send all of my happy cleaning wishes your way~

Nope! Tis I!

Welcome, welcome~!



I'm Tear, and I'm a rolly-polly Editor. :3 (I'm also new 'round these parts... yay influx of new people! <3)  Mmm, proofreading~! <3 Be careful not to dangle too many participles around the forum; the fish bots will gobble them right up and leave you pen-less! >D

Quote from: Twinkle on May 16, 2012, 23:39
I am a shoujo manga addict if anything like that exists! 

I don't know what you are speaking of, m'dear. "Manga addict?" Why, aren't you using the same word twice? This little fry does not comprehend... ;) <3

Good luck with your college preparation! Remember to pack lots of manga... I mean dictionaries and reference books to take with you!

Nope!  *APPEARS*   

Let's go with... Roze! :3

   FALSE. ADVERTISEMENT.

WHAT? WHAT IS THIS?! I was expecting someone who couldn't draw but this- THIS-!

... 

They look amazing, Rayne~! <3 I particularly like the shading in the large poster and the hands cradling the Twilight apple. <3 <3 <3 It's nice to see someone else making productive use of her class time. ;)

Mmm... I'd go with manga for shoujo stories and anime for the more shounen series. Primarily those with amazing fight scenes (trying to decipher the awesomeness of a final move in all the jagged lines of ink takes away from the coolness, imo).

So... both! \o/

Tear speaks of blasphemy D: LE FTW!
(Appreciate the abbreviations, folks.)

It is impossible to blaspheme the Transcendent while doing Her Work. :3

\o/ Yay~! More Editing happy people!  Welcome!

Also, PRing is <3 :3

2:39 in the morning.

Trying to find motivation to learn curves. ;-; *cleans up dust to procrastinate*

... And this is why Tear should probably not use her memory after a long work day.

You are correct: Photoshop World is just the NPAA conference, but you should go anyway! :D It's tons of fun and beyond worth it for the sessions. (At least, for the student fee it is. :x)

So... that contest was actually run through the Advanced Photoshop UK magazine. They had a monthly contest in their forums under the "Peer Pressure" category, which I somehow can't get to atm. >.>; The address just redirects me to their main page: http://advancedphotoshop.co.uk 

Well! Anyway, they would run the contest winners in the magazine every month. I had found a few of the winners, but the search info I used has now vanished. ;-; Here's at least one of the winning image locations I somehow manages to save:

*huggles Angel*  Thank you~!
Nerd moment is a go.  To be fair, I've only learned of that in recent years (and I'll love it forever, now). Thank you for the welcome! 

Hi Verdandi! :D

Hullo there! Welcome to Transcendence!

Oh my, my~ Graphic Design is <3 and your work is even more <3! (Yes, I am a proper stalker; however, it's only because I like to do my homework before I praise. :D) I absolutely adore your photo manipulations. They remind me a lot of the monthly challenges Photoshop World puts out. (Maybe you should try them - if you haven't already! They're a blast. <3)

I think the website for Lunatorium Designs is positively gorgeous. Back before I was a Cubicle, I was pursuing a degree in web design so I'm completely in awe and taking notes. ;) Cleaning manga is a switch, but it sounds like you're going to do fabulously! Good luck on your training!
... By the way, I'm Tear. :D Nice to meet you!

Cheon Gi Dot Com~   

I've been to Europe, does that count?

Never have I ever eaten caviar.

5:16 A.M.
I should really be sleeping... Beware the Cleaning Zombie!!! 

Hm... Well, I learned English and Spanish concurrently, but I learned Spanish by ear and went to school in the U.S.A. Therefore, I have no idea where accents are supposed to be placed and while I can understand 99% of the vocabulary thrown my way, my own ability to converse is limited to Junior High or High School level words. 

In terms of schooling, I've taken:

- Half a year of Latin (... but it's gone now)
- Half a year of Korean (and I'm teaching myself the other half atm)
- One year of French
- One and a half years of Japanese (I still remember the majority of it + yay JDrama and anime vocabulary!)
- Two years of German (and promptly forgot 1.5 years of it)

I've always wanted to take Arabic and Russian, but the logical person in me has stated that I should probably polish up the languages I've started to learn before I attempt any more. Otherwise, I'm likely forget what I still remember... 

<3

Harr~! Thank you! <3

* Tear hugs Harr :D

The Avengers.

And yes, I do believe it lives up to all the hype. :D I'm seeing it again tomorrow to catch all the lines I missed because I was laughing too hard at the midnight showing. :x If you enjoyed the humor in Iron Man and Captain America, you'll definitely enjoy this movie (at the very least).

Also, hi! :D I'm Tear. A fellow new staffie that happens to adore that manga.

... I mean, hi! :D (Hi again?)
If I haven't met you yet, hello there!    I'm Tear, the newest Editor fry. (Think fish... ><>) Lily, the Magnificent(ly Patient), has given me the thumbs up to introduce myself, so here I am!

I love learning new things and improving already learned things, so any and all feedback is always welcome! I'm a full-time second-shift worker, so you'll likely see me roaming around in the wee hours of the morning, especially on IRC. I also use smileys and emoticons far too often; feel free to ignore or tease me about them. :x

Besides that, there's not much to say... Except, of course, even if it is slightly late–

May the Fourth be with you! <3

Have  you ever watched "Gee" by Girls' Generation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7mPqycQ0tQ? My friend described the group as "made of plastic, so fantastic"  XDDD
She's jealous.

That song... >.> It stays in my head for half a year at a time.

  I cant say much re:plastic. After all, they do have awesome legs in that video. Not so much jealous as wishing, though. lol :x

Also, an oldie but goodie stuck in my head: Trax - Paradox  ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqnscuWhDic ) No Min Woo... you were hot at 18 and now you're just adorable. 

I usually try to distinguish between "best" and "favorite," but that doesn't always happen :x

For me, the best anime would have to be Fullmetal Alchemist (no movies). One, because it's a fantastic series, but also because it's rare for me to feel like the anime did the story more justice than the manga. I mean, where else can you get a series that turned a four panel omake into an entire episode that wasn't made of filler goo?

I... tend to not watch shoujo anime, , so I am probably more in tune with the Cowboy Bebop, Akira, Outlaw Star, etc line of awesomeness. Code Geass is also one that I randomly obsess over and would recommend.
HOWEVER. My favorite anime of all time is still Rurouni Kenshin de gozaru yo. 

I really enjoyed Sailor Moon, but I think the fandom started to turn me off after I got older and started to see just how over the top people went. Still, I'd recommend it. <3

Keeping with the topic of this thread, I still can't get SHINee's "Sherlock (Clue+Note)" out of my head. 

But the song that's currently playing on my YouTube wanderings is f(x) Danger: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKS12iGFyEA

proof

Rubix cube

Don't

AUSTRALIA~~~ 

That's my dream place to go! ;0;  I'm so jealous of you, L-Angel! Go play on the squeaky and black beaches for me! That's where I'd go if I had the chance...

Stay strong, Roze! :D

I've been there far too often as well. Remember, outlines are your friend! 

*adds her $.02* The first anime I can remember watching, like a typical Latin American, is Sailor Moon.

I always watched it at my cousin's house when we were little(ish). However, I had no clue that it was actually a Japanese anime and not a Mexican or Spanish cartoon until I was in High School when my friend showed me the giant poster in her room going "that's anime!" To my clueless, "No, that's a Mexican cartoon, and those two aren't cousins!" After that came much squealing (and wincing on my end) and a bombardment of questions as to how I got the "un-edited" versions.

From there it wasn't until college that I first saw, and yes, adored, Yu-Gi-Oh! (Go on, laugh it up. Just know that in the end it's going to be me flying off into the sunset in a helicopter with Seto Kaiba to live richly happily ever after.) 

The first anime I saw subbed instead of dubbed, however, was Gravitation.  Then Rurouni Kenshin, SDK, Inuyasha... I was pretty much doomed after RK. I mean, sexy man with a sword that does laundry? Mmmm~    Manga came later... sometime... and suddenly I had three bookshelves full of manga and a Japanese 101 book in my backpack.

Ahh.... to be young(er) again... <3
