  1. maybe when it is working, he will change his name by deed poll?
  2. Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it. I understand that may need to be clearer, but you see we wanted to ensure that people were actually buying and receiving the book really. that is our end goal so the idea of somebody paying and not actually getting the book.. it's a bit iffy. I'd love it if you could suggest an alternative piece of writing. it would be very helpful. yeah those middle-men fees are actually postage costs. it does cost a fair bit in postage. 10+ chapters is the amount of monthly chapters there are. but you understand, Takaya sensei condenses and combines those chapters when compiling the volumes. so it appears to be less when the volume is compiled.
  3. I don't understand your logic. So far, the amount of monthly chapters we've had that will form volume 30 is 10 chapters. if you divide £13 by 10 you get £1.30 per chapter. That's about $2. so... what is your complaint, actually? is it just the fact that it is one lump sum? besides which... if you don't want to buy the manga or want to buy it cheaper, there is the pledge option. so, I'm curious what your actual issue is. since a ~£8 pledge works out at around $1.30 per chapter anyhow, glad you've read up to date, that must have been one hell of a day!
  4. I'm wondering if we have done a bad job of publicising the pre-order system?I honestly thought what we were doing was very clear. I didn't imagine that there was any potential for misunderstanding. we placed what I thought was a clear message on the last public release. we have a rather prominent thread in the guyver subforum. We have a clear description of the current manner of doing things on the Guyver Advocacy wiki page. Is there any more we can do? perhaps we need to put a link to the pre-order thread in the first post of this topic? do you think that would help? bullwozi, pleased to meet you and welcome to the forum. please can you help us to make things clearer for others who may also be a bit unclear on how we are currently doing things. how is it that you are not aware of the pre-order system, I mean, how did you happen upon the site and how do you normally look for guyver chapters? also, please can you let us know how we can make it clearer that we do a pre-order system? thanks for your help.
  5. it's a question of what is appropriate. The point of the video is to communicate an idea. not to wow people. If I was to go back and do an elaborate animation, It would betray the whole point of the video. and it would betray my character. you should know by now that I am straightforward and to-the-point. I do what is necessary for the task at hand. no more, no less. I'd like to investigate more about what you were saying about the math and flow of water etc... just don't have it in me at the moment though. house moves and all that. but I'll put this out there... when water runs out of the 'tank'... it joins another part of the water cycle. let us forget about a tank momentarily and instead consider a whirlpool in a river. how does the water return to that whirlpool? it goes to the ocean , evaporates and precipitates higher up the mountain. who knows if there is or isn't a similar system at play with regards to the surface of space time. interestingly enough, I watched a video the other day that described the gluon field. and what does the gluon field look like? a rippling ocean.
  6. Guys, I think we really should pay attention to word definitions. it isn't called reconstructed CM it is called artificial CM.

    cheers guys. not feeling too bad today. went out and spent some time with some like minded friends and did some volunteering. mostly, I'm just feeling a little lost, like I don't really belong anywhere. well that's a lot better than what I had been feeling. definitely feeling a bit more positive about what I can potentially do. I don't like the place I moved to. I want to change location. that's for starters. now I have some prime grade A knowledge under my hat, I can make a good decision from here on out.

    cheers dude. I know what the problem is, and there is no way to move past it except to try and adapt. basically, because I'm unemployed and do a ton of voluntary work etc on my computer, I used to spend most of my time in my room with my family in the other room. I've been completely torn out of my life and I'm sort of left without all that familiar stuff. 27 years of familiarity ripped away. it's like my heart has been torn out. my surroundings gone, my family gone, no way to go back, no returning, ever. and every time i see something or hear something that reminds me of the routine I used to have, feels like a punch in the throat. I know how to find coping strategies etc, I know to try and keep busy and all that... It's just that, sometimes when I felt a bit down, I would go and pet the cat, or I would chat to my mum, or i would talk to my brother. I would just wander around the house or go sit in the garden. I think any time I went out to visit some place, there came a point where I wanted to go home. to chill. all of this is gone. I wish there was a way to fix it, but there is none. nothing anybody can do. I think just talking about it is the only way to move forwards. people lose stuff all the time. I guess I'm lucky in that my family are still alive, they are just a mile away.

    Ah yes, I see what you're saying. yes I am sure it does help in a big way. doesn't change the way I feel about where I am though. I don't think anything can help. I've thought through all the possibilities. nothing can change the fact that my familiar environment for 27 years, is now gone. I never imagined anything could feel like this. to think that millions of people must also currently feel like this... sometimes the world is not a nice place.

    BS on guyverboard? or just the net in general... yeah, it is good to visit the websites I usually frequent. good to talk to you guys.

    Thanks River, it's really tough. I want to go home but the home I want to go to doesn't exist anymore. it's just an empty shell. It might be easier if my family were here with me, but I'm with strangers. nowhere else to go.
  12. Can zoalords control things that aren't zoanoids or humans? since the creators specifically guided humans to be that way, can we easily assume they might have any power over other things?
  13. heya, I've not really put it back on since then. I got a lot of stuff going on at the moment, struggling to stay on top of things.
  14. I love it so far. not been totally keeping up with super sentai lately. wanting to try and keep my distance from asian stuff. but I watched up to date with kyouryuger recently. love ramirez. he's like a gaijin hero. the first western actor to be treated with some real respect. he was actually significant. much better than shinken brown. and now they have got an interesting thing going on with dogold. I would not say they have gone back to old super sentai. they've got something else going on here. it seems very much like a traditional formula but I am finding a far richer web of characters. the character development is awesome and the secondary characters are numerous.
  15. figure sales for sure. but not as much as the manga IMO. manga sales figures show how many people are directly interested in the story, not just the designs of the creatures.
  16. i think manga sales are more effective than kickstarter for showing popularity of something.
  17. watched the first part,. (a potential 40 minutes is too long) yeah I like this guys reviews as well. Some of the things he says, could be extrapolated and explained but it's still entertaining

    Today, I got the keys to my new home. It's sort of come out of the blue although there were rumblings of it for a while. just suddenly this week, I got given a date to vacate the premises. so I have paid rent on my new place and will be moving within the next few days. I hate this. I don't really want to move, but what can I do? some things we just don't have any choice in. Let's hope I get along well with my new house-mates. I know there are a few Indian and one Portuguese chap. Should be interesting and we should be able to learn a lot from each other. In other news, I've been getting involved in an awesome community project. We're trying to get a community centre set up where people can come along and just hang out. We want to contribute to helping the poorer people in our community, our unemployed and disabled and elderly and youngsters. the people who don't have a lot of money to go to theme parks or the cinema or bowling or drinking etc. The project has already been working in conjunction with a free stall which operates on the principle of freeconomy. or gift economy. I'm really looking forward to progressing on this, I want to be very involved in it, I am thinking I can organise computer training and similar things.
  19. we have 154 pages so far. if we add 16 we have 170. likelihood is the next chapter will be the last one of volume 30. (p.s. the pledge system is active so you who were waiting for it, go have a look in the pre-order thread.)

    it's alright. I got past it without too much problems.
  23. well lost unit is currently working on the chapter so it shouldn't be too long for you guys.
  24. that trailer looks good. I've been taking a break from anime and japanese drama. maybe I'll give this a chance. I'll talk to me mate about it today, maybe we'll watch the first episode and see how it is. it does look like a quality show.
  25. They really needed to get a contortionist to play spiderman. lazy directors will do casting just with trained actors because they don't think they could direct a non-actor. if they did cast with non-actors they have more potential to get somebody who looks the part physically, and can move like spiderman does.
