Алло is for answering a phone call, mean 'yes, i'm listening'

I know, that is the reason why i never used it.

there is no ХАлло,

Well at least something.

G = Г, h often pronounced as Г in proper names, like Harry = Гарри

Yeah, and it used mostly by not russian words/names. Like Ганновер, Гамбург or галстук. Btw, now that i think about it, wouldnt that make Harry and Garry literally the same in russian? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

yes, but its relevant for oldfags in both ways
e.g. Harry Harrison known as Гарри Гаррисон, but Lewis Hamilton not Гамилтон, its Хэмилтон
same shit with W / В / У
Dr Watson is Др Ватсон, Will Smith is Уилл Смит

Уилл

Uill? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

Iirc, when I was in Kyiv the year before the FIFA international soccer championship was held there, 5 гривень where 1 euro (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

The metro was around 2 гривень on average, and you could get a refreshing glass of Kvas from street-side tanker trucks for half гривня, iirc.

2011? You're confusing something, it was 8 гривня per USD since global financial crisis 2008

Uncle, he gave the Standard Russian and Standard Ukrain forms; they are almost but not exactly the same.

It's "proper" Ukrainian form + how it should be pronounced in Ukrainian, I barely use Russian nowadays.

Hryvnia? But shouldnt that be Хривня? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I mean г as H do i just know for foreign words or names, you know like Ганновер or Гамбург.

Also transliteration from cyrillic is not always consistent. And these are not foreign names, besides.

Exactly, it's quite stupid. To distinguish between Г and Ґ we use H and G, but first is actually very close to G and second is very hard to transliterate, but still close to G.

And when you think about it's really atrocious, that's why Харків is Kharkiv, were K serves no purpose other than destroying larynx of foreigner.

For russians

Yes, our systems are different, like Will is still Вілл.

Ok, my memory is somewhat hazy and confused, it seems; too much pivo & vodka (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Then it was not just the year before the event, but a few years back ... how quickly time passes (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

A fuck, i mixed them up again? Can we not tell mundo about this? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Even linguists get confused in such problems. Then they settle the disputes by consensus and publish official guides for correct pronounciation and transliteration that no-one ever reads or bothers about. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

And everyone is happy with what he has always done, and see no reason to change what it works well enough already (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

round counter does that when you reload the page during battle - it often gets the round wrong where you were. We should probably report that bug to sicken, but on the other hand it's not a big bug so let's not bug him about it.

this is not so much a bug as one of the newer features, to minimise disk write actions:

CODE

    ssd: true, //                       write temporary data to disk only when a page reload is expected
               //                       manual reload will result in data loss. requires ajaxRound to be false

note that "when a page reload is expected" includes exiting the settings, so you can use that when you have to reload the page for whatever reason, or turn off the feature if you're not on an ssd

I assumed there was some reason sicken did it that way.

the idea is that keeping an internal counter is a tiny bit faster than parsing the log. it may not save a whole second during a full fest, but there you go

if you browse a few years back in this thread, you'll see how lively it once was. Even 10b was a regular. But there is hope for HV yet. People are still playing. WTB/WTS are still ridiculously active. And me, I'm enjoying a cool corona in the shade through a face mask. With nachos!

face mask. With nachos!

well, duuuuhhh, of course I made a nacho-shaped hole in the mask, how else could I safely eat nacho's in public? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I'm enjoying a cool corona

You sir are a monster. I mean it may be a pale lager, something i admit did surprise me thinking that it comes from mexico, but they drink it with a fucking lime slice. A beer! With a fucking lime slice! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

After an offering to DJNoni (and an undisclosed amount of alcohol), I am officially a Follower of Decondelite. I even got the official banner.

Everyone else should join too.

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I must admit, alcohol did play some role in this on my side as well

Still... worked out pretty excellent!

I'm adding you to the wiki page of custom banners


PS: I did get paid for making that banner - but not 50k hath.

Well, I'm having a massive brainfart at the moment, so here goes...

How do I get equipment links?

I figured I'd list a bunch of junk that I've got lying around in my inventory, but I literally can't remember how to get the links to the items. Like, how do I make it pop up in a separate tab? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

EDIT: Nevermind my stupidity, I took a look at the wiki. Probably better to give the whole thing a good once-over, I think.

LOL you've forgotten a lot! Next thing you know, you forgotten that flat loli is your favorite hentai!
