Let's try to chat as much as we can in Japanese.

Start: 9PM EST, Saturday!
End: Midnight EST or later. (depending on traffic)


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-05

We start in 3 minutes Smile


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Nukemarine - 2010-06-05

Two people in the chat now. Waiting for others.

yeh sorry, my input was minimal..

EDIT: yeh seriously, sorry for no input, but that was pretty fun!


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-05

Maybe we'll have better luck next week Smile

Let's try to do this again next week.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Nukemarine - 2010-06-05

Sorry for offering such a lousy conversation Ocircle.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - kazelee - 2010-06-05

WTH is zorap?


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-05

Something about Zorap was really making my computer suffer, but I don't know what.

Maybe we should stick to using tokbox

Also, some place, same time next week?


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-10

Hey all, maybe we can try this again this weekend too?

Saturday, 9PM to 10PM (longer if people want to hang around) EST
Let us try the zorap one http://www.zorap.com/wyahfqg


Even if you only have a mic you can still participate Wink

If this becomes a semi regular thing I may eventually join, I'll just have to get past "embarrassing" for my Japanese level first Big Grin


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Groot - 2010-06-11

I suck too, but one of these weeks I will drop by, if only to listen in. :-)


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-12

Just a reminder -- this is tonight Big Grin


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Aethnen - 2010-06-12

It's 9:05 your time, 6:05 my time. Where are you? Seriously. *You're* the one who picked this time.

And it might help to get people to read this thread if it didn't say MAY FIFTH in the title. They may think it's out of date.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Aethnen - 2010-06-12

Still waiiiiiiting......


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Aethnen - 2010-06-12

Did you die? Smile


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Aethnen - 2010-06-12

My top 5 theories for why no one else came to chat, not even the people who scheduled it:

5) You misunderstood the term "fashionably late" to mean that you have to be fashionable before you show up, and that will never happen.

4) You have taken bets on how long I will sit alone in the chat room.

3) You decided to practice your Klingon instead.

2) One of your seventeen cats puked on your laptop and you can't find anything to clean in up with in the midst of all these empty pizza and takeout boxes.

1) You were stuck in Sparta because somebody set up you the bomb before rick-rolling you into some lolcats. And then you died.


Thank you all for wasting an hour of my time. It was great. Why don't we do it again next week?


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - lagwagon555 - 2010-06-12

I agree. Not showing up to something you organised, poor form.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - OsakaDan - 2010-06-12

Some people do have a life outside of RTK. Sometimes these things just happen...


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Nukemarine - 2010-06-12

She was at both the events last two weeks, so maybe something unforeseeable happened tonight. Let's be wary about bandying about insults prior to finding out what happened.

To be honest, I was more than impressed with her level of Japanese as it put mine to shame. It'd be nice if something like this becomes commonplace as it is cool to share ideas and chat with video conferencing. Putting a face to names does keep people at ease with accepting ideas.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Dustin_Calgary - 2010-06-12

I have the type of job where an unforseen circumstance means I would not be able to make it.

These things happen.

Based on what I've seen for people showing up so far it probably wasn't a huge weighing factor if something actually happened and she had to decide which to see through

I am looking forward to when I can join this and not be embarrassed Big Grin

Sorry, there was a thunderstorm, and my electricity went out :/

There you go absolutely nothing she could have done Big Grin


Sorry to hear that and sorry you had to take a bit of crap for it >.<
Like Nuke said hopefully this becomes commonplace Big Grin


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-12

I find it quite encouraging that people are interested enough this time to even complain about it. Maybe this means that next week it will be packed and fun ;D

We can also try to engage in this conversation club tomorrow too to make up for tonight, if people are interested.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Aethnen - 2010-06-12

Ocircle, I hope you weren't offended by my posts. I actually figured after the first 20 minutes or so that you must have had a valid reason for not being there. I was mostly just venting my frustration. I only joined the site on Monday, so I am still in "super hyped up ready to study Japanese" mode.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-19

Just a heads up that this is tomorrow Smile

Same old:
http://www.zorap.com/wyahfqg
Start: 9PM EST, Saturday! Until 10PM (or later)

In as much Japanese as you know!
