Teléfono políglota XII (Polyglottal Telephone XII)

[finlay]

there are a couple of minor errors but nobody's really complaining about them...

[makvas]

I can do Mandarin -> Spanish, sorry if I wasn't clear.

[finlay]

i'm partly being facetious, nitpicky and/or an asshole with that, though

Err... Whatever you say dude. I took it for granted everybody could do English, from or into whether or not they said it i.e. FSI's post. You're right about Zoris though, I'll need to remember it's important to take note of comments such as these.

[Ser]

So... It's already been two days and I don't hear people complaining anymore.

LET'SA GET THIS THING GOING NOW

SINCE WE'RE TYPING IN CAPS

I SENT MY TRANSLATION TO PEACEKEEPER AND RENAÇ​IDO

[tatapyranga]

HAHAHAHA I've laughed so hard at my own mistakes. Seriously...

Okay guys, following recent comments, I moved people around and got the following:
...
tatapyranga – German → English
...

tatapyranga – Romanian → Portuguese

Oh noes why did I say any Romance language?

I thought you were perfectly aware of that.

I mean, you even posted after Risla, and you even used BOTH bold AND italic when you said you'd do any Romance language. So I thought it was alright to give you Romanian, not wanting to teach you a lesson or anything.

Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. You didn't need to change it. I can do Romanian, it was just a rant, not exactly a complaint (I couldn't possibly complain since I did say "any".) But never mind, I'll do German instead.

[candrodor]

I'll have my translation along by midday GMT. Sorry, I wasn't quite expecting the text to come through to me so soon!

[Peacekeeper]

I just sent my translation to Ulrike Meinhof and Renaçido. Interesting text.

[Herra Ratatoskr]

just checking: I'm doing French → German, right? (I'll be doing a quick review of French in anticipation of my turn, and I want to make sure I bone up on the right language)

[Ulrike Meinhof]

Sent to Astraios.

[candrodor]

I sent my Old French off yesterday, and the English today.

[Astraios]

Grah. I had almost done it when I went to bed last night, and when I opened my laptop this morning, it was gone. How inconvenient.

[Ser]

Yep, you're doing French-German.

Meanwhile, I just found out that I already managed to screw up my entire team due to laziness at looking up a good translation for a certain word.

[finlay]

received from jmcd; passed to treskro.

[treskro]

Received ^ and sent to Zoris.

Should I send a copy to whoever is managing this?

[jmcd]

Received ^ and sent to Zoris.

Should I send a copy to whoever is managing this?

Yep. And an English translation.

[makvas]

Done, myself. I did it somewhat quickly but I think it's pretty accurate :P

[Risla]

Oy, what is going on here? It appears to be stalled. Get your asses in gear.

[Bob Johnson]

It's possible that johntm has disappeared: no activity since the 4th. I don't know what Astraios is up to. :whip crack:

In case of emergency, I could do Spanish→Japanese, but that means "squint at it and call it Latin." You probably want someone else.

[Astraios]

I don't know what Astraios is up to. :whip crack:

Save the whips for later, you know I don't like it in public.

I'm going to do it now - I've had homework and illness putting me off before now, but whatever.

[Bob Johnson]

I don't know what Astraios is up to. :whip crack:

Save the whips for later, you know I don't like it in public.

Okay, honey. Don't keep me waiting.

[Ser]

Is johntm äreo's alternate account or sth? And going from Spanish to English too...

And Astraios, get that done soon. You don't me to get out my whip.

[finlay]

How long has john had, because you should think about skipping him and letting someone else fill in Spanish → English if it's more than 3 days.
