just redownloaded a bunch of pot chapters...woke up at 5:45am...stayed up to now, 7:30...SLEPT at 3:55am...dead now...amiable018, you better apprieciate all the work I've done for you... I looked for half an hour, downloaded for another hour...Gotta get up to go to The Dalles...right now you are sucking majorly...I'm not even sleepy anymore! But I am so freaking exhausted. But I did get 230 out of it... I didn't even know they released 230 yet... I can't upload 168. Screw her, I don't need to. Ha!
Aug. 1st, 2004
The earlier post made by me was written while I was not totally sane. Amiable018 emailed me through the Tenipri_ml on yahoogroups asking about the PoT scanlations I have. See, I'm a religious PoT manga fanatic who has enough knowledge of mIRC to get onto FET's channel and download their latest chapters so I'm pretty up to date when it comes to PoT manga.
I made a comment on Tenipri_ml that if a person had a Streamload account (love my to bits and pieces!), I could send them the latest chapters since I had up to 227 (their current update at the time). And then Amiable018 contacted me privated to ask for some way to get them from me. She told me she didn't understand mIRC and didn't have Streamload and wanted them anyway. Understanding as I was since I used to be in the same sort of situation, I pointed her towards Streamload anyway.
For some reason Streamload is really nice to freeloaders so I knew it would be okay. They've amended their decision about the 30 day trial. Now they never expire and freeloaders get 100 MBs renewed each month. All the other restrictions (10 MB per file) still applied though and that's perfectly acceptable for manga chapters since none of the PoT ones are over 10 MB.
So she got her trial account and I sent her what I had which was 209-229 (since I had just gotten 228-229 off of FET). Turns out she stopped at chapter 36 (yes, you read that right, 36!!) and wanted 37-208. For one thing, Mangacity stopped at 62 (and I was missing 61-62 too!) and FET started at 158 so I couldn't send 63-157 to her even if I wanted to. Another thing was that I didn't have the older chapters on hand.
I usually don't like the zips and either delete or burn them on CDs to get them out of the way so it was either gone or hidden in my CD collection and I have like a ton of CDs. I woke up at 5:45 AM today to check on my downloads and I read the email from her telling me she wanted the old stuff and I ended up doing a mad search for the CD, not finding it and then finding it only to find I was missing some chapters that she needed. So in an effort to help her, I went to redownload the ones I was missing. Big mistake.
I know, I know, it's my fault. If I didn't want to help, I shouldn't have offered but still... Who the hell stops at 36? Chapter 36 was released like over a year ago. If she can't work mIRC and didn't have Streamload she must have gotten it at the Mangacity site before the manga got licensed and if she got it then, why the hell didn't she download the rest of them when they came out? I don't understand that. Someone's not a big PoT manga fan...
Anyway, I did end up downloading it all but my 6:00 projected sleep time ended up at 7:45. Whoops. And I needed to go to The Dalles for some shopping. I didn't end up going. I decided I need to go to sleep more than I need to be in The Dalles. Besides, it's The Dalles. It's not like I was missing much.
I did get chapter 230 out of it though. Who would have thought? Even in their channel, they didn't say they had released 230 yet so I wouldn't have even known to download it. Lucky!
I also got those two Mangacity PoT chapters I was missing, 61 and 62. And I got a new chapter of Bleach! Yay! Not only that, but I found DN http links! :D Sherry happy.
And today was a productive day! I've made some new icons so please take a look. Some are random but most are made from the screenshots I took of PoT 124. There's a couple of Kimeru ones too. I got new pics so I make new icons.
( PoT 124 Icons )

( Random Icons )
I downloaded a raw for the first time, PoT 124 so this will be prime material for some icons. Hopefully I'll get some good Ryoma and Tezuka ones... I haven't watched it yet but I heard Tezuka hits Ryoma... O.o I'm sorta scared about watching it...
Ah, before I go, I'm going to post this pic that I said I would of my Isumi plushie. He's just so cute.
He's about 3 inches tall and he is just adorable! And he was my one great find on eBay (so damn cheap at $2!). I almost like him more than my Touya and Shindo plushies... Almost. I'm not totally crazy. But he is so very cute...
This song I'm listening to is Andy Lau's 999 Roses. I'm usually not a big Andy Lau fan but this one time, I made an exception. My sister sent me this song and it's so good. It's in Mandrian so I don't really understand it but I think I'm picking up some words. He's originally a Cantonese speaker (the kind born in HK so originally only Cantonese speaker) and a bit of his pronounciations are a bit off in that they sound a bit Cantonese... It's kinda of a soft, odd song. I wish I could find translated lyrics for it.
Well, I have manga to read so ja!
