As far as I know, anyone can endorse the summaries. You might want to provide a bit of explanation in your case though, being not mentioned in the proceedings thus far. K. Lásztocska 16:18, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, OK. I didn't think of that. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  16:20, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Spring, thanks for the ice cream! *hug* --Kyoko 04:08, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aw, you're welcome! :) And thank you, for that unexpected pleasant surprise! —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:10, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOLing[edit]

[1] Not sure if I could keep up your pace on inside joking... but yes, many are forgetting - which is not a completely bad thing. István 14:26, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Halloween![edit]

Hi Spring, Happy Halloween to you too! --Kyoko 05:18, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the pumpkin. Happy Halloween to you too Cliff. King Lopez Contribs 10:11, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanky Cliff. Happy Halloween to you as well. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 23:53, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Happy Hallowe'en (what's left of it) to you too! *hugs* -- Editor at Largetalk 00:37, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

halloween[edit]

happy All Hallows Eve to you too! What's your costume? :) I was going to take the opportunity to mock Bram Stoker's flimsy knowledge of Eastern Europe by going as a "Szekely vampire" (regular vampire costume, I was just going to carry around a copy of the latest manifesto on Szekely autonomy and declaim from it at quasi-regular intervals), but I couldn't find a decent pair of fangs...so now I'm either a fangless vampire or just some sort of witch. K. Lásztocska 12:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I won't have a costume this year—I didn't get one in time. We're having a party tomorrow though. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  23:05, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Halloween![edit]

And a happy Halloween to you, my friend. Jump out of a tree onto a group of kids for me mate! Yous lipped right? Cheers! Dfrg_msc 05:04, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ha! I would have loved to do something like that—and I thought about doing it too, but I settled on laying underneath the front porch (actually part of a deck that goes almost all the way around the house) and saying "This…deck…will…self-destruct…in…10 seconds. 9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1…" I got some interesting results. :P —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  03:46, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's great! My friend dressed in full plate armour and waited at the door for the whole night, to jump out and yell "TRICK, SUCKAZ!" and chaise them with a boarding cutlass. Halloween isn't as big here as it is there. Cheers! Dfrg_msc 06:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And a Happy One to You, Too[edit]

Great to hear from you. Jonyungk 06:24, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Me again[edit]

Yeah, it's been a while. I haven't really been actively editing for about a year. Somebody Else's Problem(aka Alethiophile)Ask me why 15:30, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That was quite some time ago…ah, the good old days of Esperanza and the Coffee Lounge. ;) I like your sig by the way. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  15:32, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can't believe I missed that[edit]

Thanks for pointing that out Cliff, I was so perturbed by that anon's request I forgot to do it myself. :) Cheers, KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 19:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. :) I see that I inspired more than the anon to correct gender ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CAKE![edit]

Mmmm, thank you - for the birthday wishes and the present. I love cake - and chocolate! :D Though I am currently curled up with pumpkin pie and french vanilla coffee, I will imagine it's chocolate cake and drool :P -- Editor at Largetalk 19:58, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Coolness[edit]

All I can say is that I finally got tired of POV with no sources versus fairly and accurately represented sources being tarred as "POV" not to mention contentions that even fairly representing sources still leads to "POV" articles when written by "nationalists" (a term apparently not to be taken as a positive in that context). It's just my little stake in the ground. PētersV 16:37, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Liszt: "Late" or "Later Works"?[edit]

The term I've seen used has always been "late works," not "later." Jonyungk 01:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know, but I'm not sure as to how it should sound for an article title. Antandrus or Schissel might have some ideas though. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  04:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Le clock.[edit]

Fixed :). By the way, I was going to poke you onto GT. Will (talk) 21:55, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, I'm off to sleep. I'm always online 8am-4pm your time, though, so I may catch you tommorow. Will (talk) 23:56, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I've sent you an email. It's basically what I wanted to tell you on GT, but it's better by email as there's no set time frame we have to be online. Will (talk) 00:34, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My (Remember the dot)'s RfA[edit]

I never thanked you for participating in my RfA a couple of weeks ago. Thank you for your support, though unfortunately the request was closed as "no consensus". I plan to run again at a later time, and I hope you will support me again then.

Thanks again! —Remember the dot (talk) 06:37, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wretched Sinner Unit! The path to robot heaven lies here, in the Good Book 3.0![edit]

Nah. I don't like my history cluttered :( Will (talk) 18:57, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot you move yours…you could just copy+paste them after you move, though? —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  23:55, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Freaky, I was just about to post on yours. How do you like this? Will (talk) 23:56, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I like it very much. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  23:58, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I love snarkyness. It's basically true, and we do need to get rid of trolls such as our favourite C/EE editors. Will (talk) 00:06, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Curse Lastochka for her font! By the way, email. Will (talk) 01:06, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Her font? What's wrong with it? (And do you mean you e-mailed me or you want me to e-mail you?) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  05:02, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey....[edit]

Hey Springer... How have ya been? Just wanted to drop in and say Hi.. Hope you are doing good! Just for the record, I am doing fine myself and I am completely occupied by college and this metal band that I joined as a bassist. (I've already come on national TV twice with my band! :-).. And whats happening on your side? It must be pretty cold over there in that valley of yours. I remember when you told me bout the hot wind that blows in the summer and the cold wind in the winter, in the The Esparanza Coffee Shop...I still remember when that link wasn't red. :-( . Anyways, I'll be coming on wikipedia quite a few times now. And maybe do some editing as well. Hope you're still editing strong! I'll need all the help I can get conforming to whatever new rules wikipedida has put up. (And I just discovered half of the images in my userboxes have vanished, I've no idea why yet..) Anyways, see ya around Cliff... Cheers! Jayant,18 Years, Indiacontribs 20:18, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey mate, and early happy birthday in case you're not on for a while (will be Jayant, 19 Years, India soon). ;) And actually it's not too cold now, although it was at the beginning of the month—lowest temperature this season ≈14°F/-10C—but it was about 55°F/12 or 13C today; not too bad. :) Good luck with your band. ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  04:35, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot for the wishes mate! brrrrrrr.........those numbers look really cold to me.. its a warm 28 C over here. ;-) . Jayant,18 Years, Indiacontribs 09:24, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
"Hey". That said what I wanted to! :) Congrats on the nephews! When's your birthday? I might have to get you some WikiCake :P Fredil 01:53, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
LOL! Fredil thinks I'm getting a nephew and Will thinks it's a niece. I'll have to convince her to give herself, me, and my brother in law (her husband) boy-girl twins so you're both right! :P
My birthday is July 30; I think it's on the calendar. It's also my sister's birthday, and my brother in law's is August 2. So it will be a nice birthday present for all of us. :) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  03:11, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Can someone get a calendar please? Hehehe Fredil 21:56, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Here you go. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  02:36, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't want one literally, but thanks :P Fredil 23:05, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks[edit]

Just wanted to say thanks for supporting me! Please find your thank you card here, should you wish to see it. I'm honored to have received your support, and a 4 leaf clover to boot! :) All the best, ~Eliz81(C) 21:50, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You asked for it...[edit]

Yeah right you've made an edit a day the last three days since you blanked your page. Will (talk) 11:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

belated thanks[edit]

Thank you for the nice Barnstar you gave me on August 17th! I appreciate it! I didn't reply sooner because I have been away. Herostratus (talk) 16:11, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Thanks for the star -- it's a real nice gesture! I'm more used to slings and arrows -- this is the very first time I receive something like this, after one year at WP. Turgidson (talk) 03:03, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. :) After all, it makes a nice balance for those slings ans arrows. ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  03:04, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Thanks for the star, now if somebody asks me what I did for Wikipedia (like Anittas asked me) I can at least show this star and say that I contributed by bringing balance to the Force. I'm proud :) AdrianTM (talk) 03:49, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you turn around and ask Anittas what he did for Wikipedia? :P —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  03:50, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Heh, that's hilarious. Darth Anittas and Emperor Anonimu. And Adri-wan Kenobi, perhaps? :P (by the way, thanks :) ) Will (talk) 09:45, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You forgot about Princess KL (if you accent the K more it sounds about right). ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  16:05, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tanks[edit]

for the star. István 02:10, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello[edit]

How do you link the date and year in your sig? —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:00, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I sign with ~~~ and embed the linked dates in my raw sig under preferences. Rich Farmbrough, 19:03 5 December 2007 (GMT).
OK, what does it look like though? (Sorry, despite being computer savvy on an average level, I am horrible with code.) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:09, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thusly ''[[User:Rich Farmbrough|Rich]] [[User talk:Rich Farmbrough|Farmbrough]]'', {{subst:CURRENTTIME}} [[{{subst:CURRENTDAY}} {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}}]] [[{{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}]] (GMT).
Sounds like it's worth a try… —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  19:12 5 December, 2007
Don't forget "(UTC)". That tends to mess up bots a bit :)
{{subst:#time: H:i, [[F j]], [[Y]]|-8 hours}} (PST)
would yeild 05:44, May 6, 2024 (PST), which is pretty much the same effect. Will (talk) 19:21, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Birthday[edit]

Heh, guess I should have seen that coming. Thanks! :-) --tennisman 12:39, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(sorry, I spaced on this) Thanks for the cake! Hope it tastes good, since I have to wait a day to eat it. At least it's not a lie. --tennisman 12:46, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alarm clock![edit]

Damn! It's not indefinite. Oh well, I think I can stay awake that long. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:02 13 December, 2007 (UTC) 22:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No admin in their right mind would unblock him, though. Thus the definition of "community block" :) Will (talk) 22:09, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The problem seems to be that we have more than several admins not in their right minds. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:28 13 December, 2007 (UTC)
Unblocking before Xmas '08 would be grounds for immediate desysopping, though. Will (talk) 22:34, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
They all can go right ahead with it before the year is up, then. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  22:37 13 December, 2007 (UTC)
btw, change of topic, but if you're in London, for the love of God, don't change Circle-to-Central lines at Bank/Monument. I did that last night and it took me twenty minutes to walk :/. Yesterday was hellish, though. First London Bridge and Bank/Monument were hard to change at, then King Cross got closed so I had to go to the next station a mile up the road only to have to walk down :/ Will (talk) 22:53, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I only rode Circle and Jubilee (or maybe it was Bakerloo) into Bank/Monument, and didn't change a train either time. I'll keep it in mind for next time I go to England though. ;) —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  18:13 14 December, 2007 (UTC)
Only the Circle goes through Bank/Monument... and don't get me started on that line. Will (talk) 18:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I think I was getting confused with Embankment. —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  18:24 14 December, 2007 (UTC)
Which, ironically, is nearer to Charing Cross station than its respective tube station (i.e. Embankment is right underneath) Will (talk) 19:29, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
