“Будущее интереснее,когда не знаешь,что произойдет.”

Can a native Russian confirm if the grammar of that sentence is correct? WinKi-tyan ?

[Shinikenshi]

Wow...I have not seen that strip in such a long time.

I'm not a native Russian, but I know that language well. And it seems correct to me, you just need to put space after commas(probably mistype) and maybe remove second of them:
“Будущее интереснее, когда не знаешь что произойдет.”

...after reading further into both games, I've changed my mind and pulled the original releases of "The noose" and "40 Days and 40 Nights of Rain." The amount of errors is too large, and they're too significant for me to leave up in good conscience. New versions are both in the works.

I'd also like to ask anyone hosting either of those games to cease distribution of those releases... I don't want them out there anymore. ._.

Starchanchan, don't be too hard on yourself. Pulling the releases is of course your right as the creator of the English version, and fans of both will undoubtedly be happy to wait for the new and improved versions. But neither were the early releases fundamentally flawed - they were fine translations of some rather translatorily difficult games, particularly The noose.... brrrrrrr. Remember, you're almost undoubtedly your own harshest critic. Even though the updated versions will be greatly welcomed, we're already grateful for the fine work you've shared with us.

I appreciate the support, but The noose is the biggest example of awful translation :x if you looked at even just the first few lines with the old and new tsl side by side, you'd see pretty quickly. It was definitely not a good project for the level I was at at the time.

Overall... I feel that both original releases were far too flawed to give the original works justice, and to bring across the original intent.

I respect you even more as a person that expects quality and a person that admit flaws when needed. Even though 40 Days and 40 Nights of Rain had some weird flaws, I still enjoyed reading it and I will reread it again when you rerelease it.

The Australian firewall might censor p2p traffic as well.

WTF!? Today was released an Teaser patch for Sumaga and Saya no Uta, go and ge it on TL-Wiki!

[Magedark]

What, Saya no Uta?! Never thought the day would come.

[Moogy]

Sumaga "teaser patch" is more like some dude testing insertion. It's not really in... palatable form.

SnU teaser patch is just that, though. 71% translated currently.

[GatoNegro]

again, after 2 days of da capo was released, they pushed back the game to Jan 20! i don't understand a shi...

So this translation of Saya has no relation to Teus project right?
