Translation 12 Nov 11:46

Both and neither.
The translator can decide to help with current projects or provide translations for projects that have not been started.
We'll ask if the translator will help with projects in need of a translator, but we won't force you (unless you're a robot :] ).
However, if it's a new project, we need to make sure we have an editor for it, unless the translator would want to just translate a bunch of chapters for us irregardless of whether or not it would be edited speedily enough (ie. months to years)... which has never happened.

So yeah, if the translator only wants to do one or two series that's currently being translated, we'll see if the other translators are fine with it. If it's a new project, we'll see if we can squeeze it in. The biggest obstacle a new translator will meet is whether there are available editors and whether another translator wants to do it/continue doing it.

Quite a lot fewer votes this time (nearly half), but time is time.
That number is totally a coincidence.
Really.

You can't fight them, GIVE IN!
Also this poll is the first time we've used a checkbox poll, but I doubt everyone realized that.

Typically Googling whatever you're looking for + download site name nets you better results for downloading.
My favorite is tacking on megaupload, which leads to the first link being http://archive.easymodo.net/cgi-board.pl/jp/image/DUwkekRCzRNN7jfWRU3mbw== which has some links.

Your Google-fu is weak.

There's the template, go nuts.
Typically want to make it somewhat Dynasty themed, but if it looks good we could ignore it for the most part.

Minimum Requirements:
- Use the template. You can modify the background if it goes back to the original at the two ends smoothly.
- Have the group name and the IRC channel viewable and readable (as long as it's readable, size of the words is up to your discretion).
- Have something that, at the very least, sorta relates to Dynasty in any way conceivable.
- Parodies are most definitely allowed. Feel free to bend the rules if it's a parody (like changing the group name to something funny). Don't toy with the irc channel, however.
- PG-13. You may border on R (mature audience) but don't explicitly cross it.
- .PNG

Also, it's OK if the image or images you put in get cut off at the edges.
If you want to view our various banners already in place, replace the # in the link with the number of your choosing.

We have 26 banners, could always use more in the rotation.

Poll Suggestions 15 Oct 15:55

Anything you'd like answered by those that bother to visit our front page and scroll down to see the poll and vote on it.
You can be specific or broad, we'll (ie. Me, since no one else wants to control the poll really) consider any poll that hasn't already been done and isn't too objectionable.
Preferably not polls that we have already done, like age, gender, pets, home location, etc.

Your poll choices may or may not be subject to lulzification by yours truly, although you can opt out of it if you mention it in your post.
Also polls typically last two weeks, give or take a few days. Usually by that time, the majority of the people who vote will have voted.

[del][u]Name[/u]: MrEngenious (a.k.a. TheBus and Pedophile)
[u]Contact Info[/u]: mrengenious@gmail.com, also on IRC throughout most of the time I'm on the computer
[u]Preferred series[/u]: Anything not yuri, anything that'll troll people, porn
[u]Ability to work[/u]: I have a good amount of free time, but college drains my desire to use weekday hours to edit. Mostly edit on the weekends. I can quality check whenever, however.
[u]A bit about myself[/u]: Currently in college, slacking like heck and stuff. Been editing for your dumb group for two years, made a tutorial and everything that no one bothers with. Herp-da-derp.[/del]

[del]*Optional things you may include if you wish: your age, gender, sensitivity to things (ie. how long you've been on the internet, what 4chan is, what futanari is, goatse, etc.), your location, reason for wanting to apply, anything.
However we don't need anything but your name/alias, contact info, series/genres you want to work on, and ability to work.[/del]

Whelp, that's the end of that.

[del]Tests and general guidelines are located here: http://dynasty-recruit.pbworks.com/
We need to know of a way of contacting you, and if it's something other than IRC and forums, something that you're on often enough for contact to be established within a reasonable amount of time.
Basic knowledge of IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is highly recommended, but not required and it is teachable if need be.[/del]

[del]In regards to the editor and quality checker tests, the willingness and attempts to learn are much more important than actually starting out good (if you're new, it will NEVER look decent). We will guide you along, but we can only bring you as far as you're willing. [/del]

[del]In your recruitment topic, please note which position you're applying for in the topic title.
Inside of the topic, put in your alias, contactable information (if you're going to main the IRC, this isn't necessary. Having an e-mail for contacting would still be nice, however), and series you prefer to work on.
Also provide an estimation of the amount of time you'll be able to dedicate to the position you're applying for in a time interval (ie. about 3-4 hours per day or 10 hours a week or the weekends or etc.).[/del]

Whelp, we're mostly done. If you still wish to help with our small fry stuff like pixiv doujins or technical work, please nudge us on the IRC.
