Happy Tanabata

[Kinny Riddle]

Well, if you want to be Kyon and pick on the small details, the real Tanabata this year won't come until August 26th according to the lunar calendar, but as devoted Haruhi-ists, we don't really care, do we?

For our goddess has arranged for us to write down our wishes on the SOS-Dan site today. Simply write one wish to Vega, and one to Altair, and you're good to go.

Here's wishing everyone a happy Tanabata, and hope you get your wishes granted in 16 and 25 years' time respectively.

If at first it doesn't work, simply go back and try again, it's bound to go through. It did for me.

Properly, I wrote these:

私にお金をください。

私に大きな家をください。

Cute, but grammatically incorrect. Tanabata banzai!

[Fushichou]

Shut up!

Hmm, wasnt Tanabata at July 7th?

So is there something new from Haruhi Suzumiya?

What are you talking about? It was July 7th when I made this topic, though it's now July 8th already in Japan.

Or do you mean the lunar calendar? Tanabata (literally the night of Sevens) was originally on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar, not the solar (Gregorian) one. The Chinese still celebrate "The Night of Sevens" according to the lunar calendar.

It was July 7 in Japan

July 6, 5:24 pm (GMT+1) = July 7, 1:24 am (GMT+9)

Mon Jul 06, 2009 5:24 pm your time, not mine. My log clearly says Tue Jul 07, 2009 12:24 am.

Not everyone lives in your timezone, you know?

[Darklor]

Ah my bad. I have had forgotten, that everyone can have the boards in its own timezone... (Thought the moment the board had only a standardtimezone)
