Luann Gil Thorp   I don't know, maybe you should keep reading and then you'll find out. If you ever feel like we get to hyper-critical about some of the hate reads in this thread, remember that the Go Comics readers are far, far, worse about theirs. Damning us with faint praise, I know. The username bummed me out, but then I thought, "Yeah, he probably does shout his befuddlement to the world in general every time a plot development happens in a movie." Home Free

CzarChasm posted:So now, even if the Demons win the next game (putting them 4-1 in the series) they get recognition, but not paid right? Sohn's dead, Plank's a vegetable, and the team is going to be disbanded regardless of any game outcome? What a story! Now that we're actually finished finished, some of you may have noticed that the question of whether or not the chairman paid up is left unresolved. It's worth noting that Sohn was paying the Demons out of his own pocket this entire time with his personal savings, and the payday from the chairman was just to reimburse him for all that. So, it's not clear who would have even gotten the money now that Sohn's dead. The contract did specify that it was up to the chairman's discretion whether to pay Sohn or not in the event of a loss- since I knew this was where the story was going, I was careful to translate the exact technical language of the contract scene. In my headcanon the chairman probably sets up some sort of charity in Sohn's honor with the money, since Prudence Hong's book almost certainly mentioned his attempt to rig the game and the Cowboys would have been facing a public relations crisis if he'd tried to weasel out of it. Also, I missed one line and I guess everyone was too shocked by everything else that was going on at the time to notice. The corrected page-

Mousetrapped Huh. Original characters. What a concept. Out Boarding House, featuring a perfectly timed reveal. (February 19-21, 1925)    Out Our Way: 1925 Cowboys, Revisited (February 21, 1925)  Toonerville Folks (May 4-6, 1922)    ON THE FAMILY TENNIS COURT: The regular early spring dispute between Dad and Willie concerning the playing condition of the court. Bonus: One of our occasional visits with Clare Briggs (May 6, 1922)  Babe Ruth was eating a six-week suspension as the test case for the authority of newly installed baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis. Call to the Pen posted:After the [Yankees 1921 pennant] season Ruth decided to barnstorm along with teammate and outfielder Bob Meusel. In doing so, Ruth and Meusel broke a major league rule against barnstorming by players who participated in the World Series. The first Commissioner in baseball history, Kenesaw Mountain Landis, believed that the Series should be the most important event of the baseball season. With baseball’s reputation having suffered from the Black Sox scandal of 1919 Landis did not want anything to take away from the fans faith in the game. Ruth was there on opening day, as a guest in the presidential box of Warren G. Harding, who threw out the first pitch. Dok's Dippy Newsreel (January 29, 1915, because I goofed on the dates again last night.)  Little Lefty (October 5, 6, and most of 7, 1939)    Meanwhile, the rest of the sports page is trying to make Marmaduke a thing, even having him pick sides in the World Series.

Giant Ethicist posted:We Are Reproducing Maybe she's not the most responsible mother, but you can tell that the author genuinely loves and likes her baby. It's so refreshing compared to For Better or For Worse, where every little baby flail would be received with a death glare. (Seriously, that scowl at the end of so many comics about baby and toddler April is just like, can you find any humor or joy in your heart?) Uchida just accepts that her baby does baby things, like smear her make-up, and "punishes" him with a big, smacking kiss instead of a smack. Thanks for posting The Demons of Baseball, Some Guy TT. It was AMAZING.

EBB posted:the end no moral dot jay peg So funny story, almost. By sheer dumb coincidence, I kiiind of ended up going through similar stuff as Planck while I was translating this. And believe me, the constant reminder of "remember what Planck did? Don't do what Planck did" was borderline therapeutic in getting through all that. Anyway, I have a general query. As some of you might have noticed, I attempted to use Phoenix Wright style localizations for names in Demons of Baseball instead of directly transliterating them from Korean. I did this for text box reasons, making them easier to remember, and also maintaining some of the thematic implications (Planck's Korean name is not a common one and literally translates as planet, for example). I'm now mulling over whether to do the same for the Wandering Culinarian. Thoughts? As a more specific aside to this question, there's a really stupid pun for two of the characters' names where they can be combined to form a four-letter phrase meaning something like grand feast. That's the sort of thing I'd like to at least try to reproduce in English instead of banishing to a translator's note. So far I've got Hanks and Gillian (to approximate Thanksgiving) but knowing the tendency of some posters to try and translate the untranslatable Fingerporis, I figured I'd open this one up to the floor.

Powerful Katrinka posted:Maybe she's not the most responsible mother, but you can tell that the author genuinely loves and likes her baby. Yeah, it's a very organic portrayal of "huh, guess I gotta take care of this lil pooper now, kinda cute I guess". Some Guy TT posted:Anyway, I have a general query.

I'm now mulling over whether to do the same for the Wandering Culinarian. Thoughts? I liked your name choices, it did make it easier to discuss the comics. It's a bit embarrassing to admit but I imagine I'd have a lot more trouble keeping a series of Korean names apart. So I'm for localized names. davidspackage fucked around with this message at 07:20 on Jan 13, 2024 |
