Ok, random sentences we will get!DzêtaRedfang wrote: ↑16 May 2023 19:15You're translating what was given, so go sentence by sentence (and if any information in later sentences helps to contextualise earlier ones, you can fix those up in turn). Don't take it and just rewrite the whole thing into a new coherent equivalent of the starting text (aka no large-scale changes beyond what's needed to make it plausible culturally for the language). The point is to see how far it devolves by the end, after all!

Sorry for my role in this ─ but the week I was originally scheduled with was fine, it just got pushed back (by the process you mentioned) into my LEAP testing.Iyionaku wrote: ↑16 May 2023 06:17 See, this is what we mean with
Exams rarely just fall from the sky, normally you know the date (at least the approximate one) way in advance. It wouldn't have been so much an issue to just have pushed Proton to the end of the queue, way past the exam. And even if he then still needed longer, at least the whole queue wouldn't be blocked.If you foresee that you have a very busy or stressful week before your turn begins, or shortly thereafter, kindly give a heads-up in time and we can shift you further back in the queue.
Now we're homing in to a full month for one torch. At the moment it's already seven times as long as agreed upon, which of course also means that ring 2 is almost done whereas ring 1 has barely started.

Just a heads-up in advance that I'll be unavailable from the 26th-29th, so since Ring 1 is running a bit slow (these things do tend to, I've found), if my turn ends up pushing into that timeframe I'll need to switch with someone later. Will be busy gallivanting about in a field with bells strapped to my shins doing very tremendously serious important productive work and mock-swordfighting with sticks to accordion music finishing my dissertation.

I'm very sorry for skipping this.
It would have taken much time and I didn't find it useful to use it translating fragments (or maybe I was just bad at understanding Yoshó).
I'm sorry for taking two days to remember why I have avoided these relays for years.
But one must avoid sunk cost bias, and this is just a hobby.
What I got from Udj is sent to pachelbel.

I'm almost certain this was my fault. I've never been known to translate well into English, or to explain my grammar well.

I think it's just how these relays work. Things get messier at every round.

Might anonymous123 be inactive, not having been active since the end of March?

I suggest anonymous123 should be skipped, being inactive currently.

Anonymous has been active on Discord, which is where I presume the torch was passed. I will try and get an update today on how it's coming along.

Gonna send the torch some time this weekend.

I would suggest that we try and keep the relay on this board. Once the torch starts being passed on different social media sites, It gets increasingly hard for everybody to keep track of what is going on.DzêtaRedfang wrote: ↑25 May 2023 16:44 Anonymous has been active on Discord, which is where I presume the torch was passed.

I agree; however, you can blame proton this time for that if you so please. To that end,Acipencer wrote: ↑27 May 2023 18:49I would suggest that we try and keep the relay on this board.

Since you didn't answer the ping on the CBB server, can we please get an update on how the torch is going? I would much prefer to not have to go through another 3-week torch turnover. Ring 2 is just about done and we're now on person 4 for Ring 1, it's getting a little silly.anonymous123 wrote: ↑31 Mar 2023 17:46 Returning from my eternal hell slumber once again, this time with Mondolan - an alt-hist IAL.
