Foolish commoners, grovel before the archangel! Well, that is, unless you want to be turned into a mug cup like Sad Panda there.
He wasn’t that bad of a guy, too…*sniff*…

UPDATE: So the .ts’s were totally and utterly borked. What do? Why, just download a good .ts! Set up my clusters, made a trigger, went to school, came back, oh look it’s done. Upload onto ftp…

It’s two gigs, shut up.

Ok done. Now __ar can download it and WE CAN FINALLY GET AN ENCODE DONE!

DONE!
Apologies for the delays folks. Enjoy your complete release.

Look, look. __ar. I’m sorry. Things didn’t have to turn out this way. There are a million ways that I can apologize to you, but none of them seem right. So I’ll just go with this one, simple and clean: I’m sorry.
JUST KIDDING! I didn’t rape __ar in the staff chan for being a slowpoke at all! Teehee! 😀
Anyway this ep was delayed (as you can read from this post (if it’s still up)) because of massive transport stream issues. And by massive, I mean I made 2 passes on my .txt script at school (that means I work more slowly) and we still didn’t even have a full .ts file. Now if that weren’t bad enough, I split the Aria TL with Raze, finish that, go home, show my friend how LoL looks with high graphics settings, come back to mIRC and…no raw on the ftp. Still. What went down this time was the following:
– __ar has finally gotten a hold of a .ts! <Insert fanfare>
– Menu > Items > Ano-Hana-04-TS > Use
– __ar used an Ano-Hana-04-TS!
– Oh no! The item was booby trapped!
– __ar has lost 9999 SAN.
– __ar has gone insane.
– Ano-Hana-04-TS has broken.
GAME OVER
Play again? Y/N
…yeah, something like that. The .ts is borked. __ar actually had to download the .ts from C (which aired right before this show) just so he could trim off 99% of the file he just downloaded (some three Gigs or so) for like 70 frames at the beginning of this show. Are we finally done? Does that give us a raw? OH NO NO NO MY FRIENDS, LIFE HAS NOT GIVEN US LEMONS BUT GOYAS. BITTER, BITTER GOYAS. Why the metaphor? Well you see, after doing all of that crap we were still missing the first two seconds of the raw. Sure, if you feel like missing the first line that’s fine, but you know. We won’t settle for this B.S.
My long and analogy-riddled rant concludes with this: getting this proper encode correct is going to take forever (think XviD of anohana ep1), so we’re settling for a share raw v0. Soz.
TL;DR: It’s a v0, we used a share raw. Why? Read the above.

4channers rejoice: I have provided you with this post pic, a lossless screenshot from the transport stream, so that you may photoshop the fireworks into the 4chan-tastic object of your choice!
Some examples to get you started: cheezburgers, xkcd comics, and fighter jets(<-NSFW).

True to our word, we are releasing before I find that it has become the next day in my time zone. Well, at least it’s not midnight when I’m writing this post. If someone who isn’t me doesn’t screw up yet again I’m sure I’ll be correct. (Sorry bud, it even says in staff chan topic that you’re officially group scapegoat.)
By the way, I pretty much decided to make some kind of notice in the blog post whenever there’s food involved in the ep. You didn’t think you’d learn about Indian food watching animu, did you?
[05:25:43] Dialogue: 0,0:17:18.45,0:17:19.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It’s called kheer.
[05:25:43] Dialogue: 0,0:17:19.96,0:17:23.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It’s a dish from India where you boil rice in milk.
[05:25:49] ITS PAKISTANI GODDAMMIT
[05:25:51] FUCADFK
Well this other one should be correct since I got it from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia. It’s some kind of Indian tea.
HOW TO BE CORRECT: Vagueness + Reliable Source = Unassailable facts
TL;DR SUMMARY IS HERE:
Also, I’m Moshiburner on LoL, if you were wondering. Just thought I’d throw it out there since gg was making its own League of Legends post.
Oh wait, wrong part.

Phoood. and ???????

Hi guys, today is International Efficiency Day(IED). For our participation in the event, we’ve decided to encode all shows today at a CRF of 51 with 128KBps AC3 audio. As a result, our videos have been reduced in size by a revolutionary 60% and (given the 5k minimum number of downloads we get per release) have saved about 2TB in disk space worldwide. (ep1 had over 10k, so that’s 4TB(not TiB, binaryfags).) It’s our little way of saying thank you to the planet, and ensuring that we can continue to receive its blessings.
Speaking of efficiency, we’re lagging behind because someone *cough* keeps making *c__augh* eyecandy typesets. And those take too long to do. Now I’m not saying the next ep is going to have eyecancer, I’m just saying we’re too slow. We’ll do something about it, though.
Raze says:: Yeah Moshi is pretty well-known for his sarcasm. We realize we’re pretty slow with this show; the delays are caused by a work bottleneck with one person having to handle both encoding and typesetting (and real life). We’ll try to smooth things out before next week.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention what a babe Anaru is, dayum. She gets an additional 20 points in my book from this episode alone.
ar inputs: Due to myself stalling this release (legit excuses this week of course), I had extra time while typesetting to add more flowers for the episode title. Studies (by globally renowned scientists no less.) have proven that flowers are both fabulous and contribute to positive growth in female viewer numbers. Thus, by the final episode I believe we can achieve excellent growth in female viewers per episode and greater ratio of flowers softsubbed to original flower art (animation). (?)

Everyone, meet Anaru. Isn’t she hawt? Isn’t she cute? Of course she is.
THEN DO NOT CALL HER BY THE FORBIDDEN NAME!
That’s right, you know what I’m talking about. Public flogging by dandelions to those who call her by the forbidden name!

Our second series of Spring 2011, and first ridiculously long full sentence series title. Seriously, first semicolons and now this. Well, the show itself is quite fine I must say, so please do enjoy. I’d know, I worked on this particular episode for like 6+ hours or so.
Props to:

Raze: cuz he has to be in every honorary mention list. Oh and he QC’d like usual. 😛 He did tons for Aria though so that’s +1 to his workload, actually landing him on this list. The list is the “Good work today guys” list btw; it’s not just for this show.

Moshiburner: cuz he should be too (inb4 ???). Well I did QC for aria and TL for this show. And by TL I mean I TL’d the script, did half a pass on the txt, ate dinner while comm timed it (see below), took the script, did a QC pass, applied QC, did another QC pass (this time checking timing errors), applied QC, passed the script to Raze and timed the OP and ED karaoke. That’s a shitload even to type.

__ar: cuz he was doing 3 things at once. I mean seriously, doing three separate tasks simultaneously requires tons of effort no matter what. Think about it: styling while k-timing while doing IVTC. I could replace styling with counting jelly beans and the IVTC with peeling a banana and it’d still be frickin expert-moodo, you hear me? That’s right. Jelly beans. You know what, change k-timing to chatting on IRC too. All right, counting jelly beans while chatting on IRC while peeling a banana. That’s what he did. Respect.

commander`A: timing aria AND this, saying “fuck school, fansubbing > learning”. No really. He skipped a class just to time this ep for us. Tiger blood, right there.

Honorary mention:

fnord: cuz he was honest and said “I CAN’T DO THIS SHOW SINCE I’LL LOSE SLEEP TIME”. He’s got balls. nuff said.

OH RIGHT LOLEDIT: fnord TS’d aria. More cookies for Raze and fnord. I’m going to get some sleep before I really start forgetting stuff. Speaking of sleep, __ar also managed to be falling asleep while doing the above. That doesn’t count in the triple-tasking <_<
