Meanwhile, team Charm's text continues to mutate in new and bizarre ways...
Zain pazitovcor, sio? Sio, tovcor.
You can't read that, right? Yes, it says that.

Sent. My Russian skills would seem to be really terrible; if the text made sense before, it certainly doesn't now.

Actually, there doesn't seem to be all that many changes, just the usual... mostly. It can still somewhat be recognized as the original text...

Damn I had to look up a lot of words. It's not even been a year since I finished my six months of formal Spanish studies. I think I need to start studying again! :D

I'm pretty sure either I mistranslated an idiom or something got kind of messed up along the way.

It hasn't got to me yet, so I believe the text is still with faiuwle. Technically, though, she still has another week.

Good, now if only Peacekeeper would send me his Spanish translation... or Ulrike Meinhof could send it...

Alright, I sent it. I'm not sure it was the greatest translation ever, but we're almost done, right?

Yes, I have it. I still have time, though, so I'm doing it on my own pace.
