Deletion Log Entry

Hooray! A search of the deletion log for user Day returns:

• 16:18, 16 February 2006 Day deleted "Image:Litmus2.jpg" (Redundant image.)

It has begun! Still no entries in the block log yet, but Spence and I don't either. Probably because of our intimidation factor. (Or maybe because I was sleeping on the job while Peter or Joe was actually looking after the place.) Congrats on the first delete! (And many more...) --Steelviper 19:35, 16 February 2006 (EST)

Block log? Man... Does this admin bit come with a fraking manual? "Of course not. That would be too logical." *wink* --Day 23:56, 17 February 2006 (EST)

Congrats

Just wanted to say Congratulations on your engagement. Best wishes! -- Laineylain 11:47, 14 March 2006 (CST)

Thanks much. We're, perhaps obviously, pretty excited about it. --Day 14:05, 15 March 2006 (CST)

Just saw the announcement of your engagement and I too wanted to congratulate you. --Zareck Rocks 14:23, 15 March 2006 (CST)

Same here, congratulations. --Talos 15:47, 15 March 2006 (CST)

You desillifier :P

Party pooper. I thought that caption brought much levity to the article. :P

Bleh, I knew it wouldn't last. :)--Kross 14:29, 14 March 2006 (CST)

We like to keep levity pretty segregated from the rest of the wiki. --Day 14:05, 15 March 2006 (CST)

All your fault

Dang you, Day.. all day I've been pondering a new game.. Battlestar Marathon. All your fault... All of it. --Durandal

Heh. A Marine-based Mod? Or maybe the Resistance? Heh. --Day 14:03, 15 March 2006 (CST)

Reskin the Pfhor/S'pht to be centurions (oldschool and newschool, respectively), assimilated Bobs become Agents, maps of Galactica & assorted other vessiles/locales... All your fault, Day... all your fault... *goes to play in pfhorge* --Durandal 21:29, 15 March 2006 (CST)

Check GMail; I can't get it!

Now it works.. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 21:17, 19 March 2006 (CST)

Mistake on my part

I was moving a template and must have had the old version. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 02:47, 23 June 2006 (CDT)

No worries. You use an outside editor, then? --Day ^{(Talk - Admin)} 02:49, 23 June 2006 (CDT)

Non-weapon guns

You know... like tasers, and bean bag rounds. Oh. Those are non-lethal (or less-lethal) weapons. Hmmm. Squirt guns, or cap guns/starter guns would be example of non-weapon guns. Though, I doubt Raiders are equipped with cap guns (as the odds of them getting caught up in a pickup game of cops and robbers or cowboys and indians out in space is probably pretty poor). --Steelviper 07:34, 7 July 2006 (CDT)

Maybe Raiders all use Airsoft. *wink* --Day ^{(Talk - Admin)} 23:32, 7 July 2006 (CDT)

Sindar translation

I recalled that you have some experience with the Sindar language. I was trying to come up with a translation, but was falling short. I'm looking to have a name (for a rifle) that means "Prairie dog killer". Dog is easy (hû), killer might easily be circumlocuted to death (gûr n., gurth n., guruth n., guruthos n., gwanath n., gwanu n.), but prarie has me stumped. I tried plains, meadow (from the latin roots) and finally found grassland (grassland nan n., parth n). But... how does it all string together (correctly)? nanhûgurth? --Steelviper 10:12, 12 July 2006 (CDT)

For plains you should use "Talath", noun, Sindarin for "plain". -lad (as in "Dagorlad") is a suffix and difficult to manipulate as such, but more importantly it means "plain/valley" while talath means plains proper. I'd have used the ending -crist (something like "Praire Dog Cleaver") but that's not appropriate for a rifle).----->"Gurth an yrch" means "Death to the Orcs" (from one of the History of Middle-earth supplement books), talath isn't a suffix, it's a stand alone word, while hû is a word root but not a full word; it would need a suffix linked to it (but "Hulad" would be kind of inaccurate, see above). Actually, "Huan" literally means simply "hound" (the an is just added to make it a complete word). ----->So a name for such a rifle, (not so much a name as a slogan, but hey guns can be named "Death from Above" or "Vae Victus", not just "Charlene"), would be "Gurth An Talath Huan" = "Death to the Plains (Praire) Hounds". --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 14:07, 12 July 2006 (CDT)
