I think everyone who uses JDF at least about-actively, noticed that the server crashed a week ago.
It’s not a disaster too big, the board is going to be back after this month. So, November the 1st (Japan time) we will be back in business.
I posted the note in Japanese to the noticeboard and in ameblog as did the other admins, so take a break everyone. It’s only about a week.
In case some people lost themselves:

JDFのこと申し訳ありませんでした。11月以内に私たちは戻ります。
今, アドミンに連絡するのにメールを使用しなさい。PMがないから。お願いします。
-案丹/aleyna

JPM, then again, is another story.
It’s not a discussion forum to JDF’s extent, but more than often functions chat-like, and has its good points.
The site’s had big problems for almost two weeks now, and now.. well, let’s say it’s not usable atm.
Most likely it won’t be fixed in a blink of an eye.

I have now good reasons to go and really focus on writing the thesis, when the only English speaking forums (JDF if 50% English anyway) I actually use are out of business.
(Or, you can try to tell me to join another one. Or not.)

So instead of PMs, use the gmail or a comment in here.
Oh. And why do I have such a.. thing with the categories? Confusing.

Almost done with all the clips. Only a couple left to be done after this ^^
I always try to screencap people evenly, but sometimes I swear the director has one or two good, steady close-ups and they’re both of Kimutaku.
I have nothing against watching the man, but if someone wondered for the reason. Shingo for example is usually very hard to cap, not to mention Tsuyoshi.

I don’t know whether or not we’ll be subbing the newest PV, but I’d like to think we’ll do one of the lives. There’ve been a lot anyway.

2008.08.18 SMAP & TUBE – Super Summer Hit Medley
aleynacap
SMAP perform a wonderful, wonderful summer medley with the Japanese household name TUBE.
Includes the following songs: Paradiso ~‎愛の迷宮~ (2008), Season in the Sun (1986), あー夏休み (1990), さよなら Yesterday (1991) & BANG! BANG! バカンス! (SMAP 2005)
This medley is like a picture of SMAP: There are sparkles, colourful shirts, pretty women, dancing, total frolicking, and you can feel the summer joy. Watch out for the members’ (especially Nakai’s since it’s rare to hear him actually singing a verse ’til the end without taking the mic away from his lips!) solo lines.
I made an mp3-rip for myself of this and can upload it by request.
