== New Member. ==

Hello Drinkingwater

My name is Trigger91 and i'll be working as a editor with Code06 on this project so i might as well as introduce myself.

==Mondaiji-tachi Ga Isekai Kara Kuru Soudesu Yo - Edits==
I was going through volume 2 chapter 8 when I saw this - 'Meowing, Calico cat went onto Kasukabe's arms. Being tortured by the heat from the fever, Kasukabe stretched out her arms and hugged Calico cat, thinking about her comrades, heading off to body.' 
I couldn't understand the last bit so I left it alone to ask you - ''''thinking about her comrades, heading off to body''''.

Okay thanks, I have emended it [[User:Drinkingwater|Drinkingwater]] ([[User talk:Drinkingwater#top|talk]]) 07:38, 2 July 2013 (CDT)

now that September is over (and most of the October too)  do plan on starting the translations again?

Just letting you know I changed Maou to Demon Lord and You to Yō per the guidelines in volume 2. The reason I am letting know is because those were major changes. Other than that I fixed mostly typos and some tenses. Are you using single quote or parentheses to mark character thoughts? You used single quotes initially, but later on they became parentheses. Should I change them to that? --[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 12:33, 10 June 2014 (CDT)

Actually I don't really mind the edits, since I am a fairly new translator if I say so myself. For character quotes though, I tend to use parentheses.

Okay thanks for replying, I will change the single quote character thoughts into parentheses now to match the rest of the volume. The app readers seem to prefer it too. xD --[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 19:34, 10 June 2014 (CDT)

Thank you for translating NGNL! --[[User:Kai Ran|Kai Ran]] ([[User talk:Kai Ran|talk]]) 12:20, 26 October 2013 (CDT)

Thanks for translating NGNL!! when i started reading it i couldnt stop until i catched up with the translations. O.o, chess game was awesome [Treyon] 21:29, 11 April 2014

Are the "oh's" that appear in the character's dialogues part of their speaking pattern? I have noticed the "oh's" appear frequently in volume 1 (I have yet to check volume 2)and usually make the sentences a bit fragmented. Is there anything we can do to remedy that?

Here's some examples: 
"Hehe, although you should've understood by now, I will still emphasise it, the [Games] here are different from your world's internet chess oh? Indeed, I did lose to you siblings..." 

"But.........I won't lose the next time oh?" 

"...so please utilize this meaningfully oh."

"Little sister, I won't be lenient today oh. Today I will definitely make you regret that."

Hmmmmm. Might've been some bad habits when I've just started translating. Would definitely look into it.

Do you have a forum account its easier to talk there? I can show you some more instances.

--[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 18:50, 21 May 2014 (CDT)

I tried to removed the awkward "oh's" inside the dialogues to make it more cohesive in volume 2 such as in chapter 4. if you are fine with the changes, I can do them to volume 1 as well. --[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 14:16, 22 May 2014 (CDT)

In Volume 3 Chapter 3 ‎I changed death angles into blind spots. Blind spots worked better for the context you were aiming for I think.--[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 12:33, 10 June 2014 (CDT)

-Hello, dear Drinkingwater: I´m NekoShiiro, translator in Tomodachi Fansub, and we want to ask for permission to translate ''No Game, No Life'' into Spanish. We´ve seen a translation, but it´s full of gramatical mistakes, and we think we could improve the translation´s quality, at least. Can we use your translation? Thanks. -NekoShiiro

-Just one question: are you going to upload the parts of the 6th volume that haven´t been added yet? I mean, with the translation rights by Yen Press and all of that, I know it´s kind of judicially complicated, but we need them to be able to finish the series´ 6th volume within the Spanish project. If not, could you tell us where did you find the original document you are working on? Thanks! -NekoShiiro (again)
+"...so please utilize this meaningfully oh."
-I'm currently occupied with my national examinations it isn't possible for me to complete the series. The 6th volume in Japanese is 'floating' all around the net, finding it wouldn't be that much of a task. Torrent is a great platform.

-Since No game no life is getting translated by Yen press are you going to finish the translation and post it elsewhere?
-Maybe after my examinations. I have yet to find a platform to upload translations. [[User:Drinkingwater|Drinkingwater]] ([[User talk:Drinkingwater#top|talk]]) 06:29, 31 August 2014 (CDT)
