The book is Pirate Bay'd. Some notes:

There are some crooked pages, and they won't c+p very well.
My scanner is suuupperr dodgy but the OCR seems to handle it surprisingly well. If a page is straight and not shadowed (most of them) it should be totally fine, but still double check.
Default language for character recognition is Japanese, so English comes out like this:

Over there is ar ed book，ri ght. It's ak anji book. /S ee the red
book over there? Tbat's a kanji book

You may or may not find it easy to type in from scratch.

Anyway, it's not as ideal as the first few pages lead me to believe so a spreadsheet would actually be really good. I'll do TO WA, YA, and TO KA as they're all really short.

Anybody that has downloaded the file: I've figured out how to batch process images in Photoshop and should be able to improve the quality considerably. I'll delete that torrent and upload a better one asap. Sorry about that, but at least it's not a huge file.

Edit: Okay, a much better one is up so please grab that and delete the old one. Got rid of most of the shadowed parts, plus changed the image mode so it's not completely unreadable at anything other than full zoom.

Wow, thanks much for the torrent. With this, the project will probably get on much faster.

Edit:
I decided to do the DE MO section to try out the PDFs effectiveness. The accuracy of the copy pasted Japanese was near perfect. There was maybe one or two small mistakes out of the thirteen sentences. Copy pasting the English, like shakkun said, comes up with common space problems and the like, but it's not bad at all. I found it very effective and quick, given that there is time taken to double check what was pasted into the cell.

DE MO section completed.

I own this one and willing to input. What is the current allocation?

By the way.. You do get the benefit of you first review when you're actually typing them up.

There really is no allocation outside of what Alyks posted. As it stands, all you do is go in, grab an empty section and just start doing it.

Finished E and KARA.

Due to work related issues, I don't have much time the coming 1.5 weeks. I'll continue with HODO and BAKARI (chap 20 and 21) at that time...

As it stands:

WA - Alyks/done
GA - Alyks
MO - Hagaren199/done
-TE MO (-DE MO) - Hagaren199/done
DE MO - hagaren199/done
TO - AdamLeliel/done
TO WA - shakkun/done
YA - Alyks
TO KA - shakkun/done
NADO - Phauna/done
KA - shakkun/done
DE - shakkun
NI - shakkun
E - abaddon/done
KARA - abaddon/done
MADE - atreya
NO - atreya
O - atreya
KURAI (GURAI)
HODO - abaddon
BAKARI - abaddon
DAKE - ew8049/done
SHIKA - ew8049/done
NOMI - ew8049/done
KIRI- aovora
NO DE - aovora
MONO DE - aovora
KAREDOMO - aovora
TOKORO DE - aovora
NO NI - Phauna
KUSE NI
MONO NO
TOKORO GA
-BA
-TARA
NARA
MONO NARA
TOKORO
MONO O

And that's all the current spreadsheet will allow, and we don't move on until all these are done.

It seems were getting up steam.

Sorry, I've been very slow-- GCSE results, sorting out college, etc. But I still want to do my part.

I'm a masochist and I can't bear that I have this book and aren't doing anything with it. So I can do NA DO, and maybe more when I've finished that one. I'll send you an email with my address, alyks.

to wa, to ka and ka are up. Will do ni and de next, I'll put my name on the spreadsheet. Typing even minor corrections with a broken finger is unbelievably frustrating so apologies for total slowness.

I'll take the next three in there:
DAKE
SHIKA
NOMI

I am also willing to pitch in. Are DE, NI, MADE, NO and O taken ? If not, I will start working on them right away. ^_^ I have been quite idle after I finished my share of the mining work for "Making out in Japanese"....

DAKE - done
SHIKA - done
NOMI - done

Hmm, little late now, but maybe doing it by page numbers would have been a bit easier? Some particles have 50 sentences while others might have 2.

Still, I'll provide my Proof of Purchase for this and Making Out in Japanese when I get back.

Hi,
I ordered this book last week and itshould be there on monday and I would love to participate in this project.
So I can type the sentences for:
KIRI
NO DE
MONO DE
KAREDOMO
TOKORO DE

Finished MADE, also Bolded the particles for which the sentences have been added for the sake of clarity.

Finished NADO and uploaded it. I'll take NO NI next.

I would have liked to bold the particles but I couldn't work out how to just bold the word, and not the whole cell.

Not sure if the Bold will make it when you copy the sentences into Anki or Mnemosyne. Granted, if it must be done, Anki offers it I think.

Yea, the bold feature in anki actually adds a "[ b ][ /b ]" tag to the word which is in bold. So making a word/sentence/particle bold in excel wouldn't change anything

Finished TO (I think... I hope.). I'll see what I can do next.

Meh... pretty cheap book... what the heck, I'll join in. Sign me up for something.

When you get the book, go ahead and pick which ones you want to do.
KUSE NI, MONO NO, TOKORO GA are all good ones.

Been slightly busy this week <_<, will start work on the rest of my quota by Sunday.
