To all current or prospective game programmers out there:
Itch.io is hosting a yuri game jam (of which I've learned two weeks late... give or take 3 years) and submissions are due at the end of October. Give it a go if you can and spread the joy of LGBTQIA.

https://itch.io/jam/yuri-game-jam-2018

The site is hosted on a server that GOD on Rizon lets us use at no charge. Without him, we'd be paying out of our pockets or something to keep things going.
The site itself was coded by omnscient0 as a passion project several years ago. At this point he feels that there's not much need for improvement or changing of the site structure in any fashion, last I heard.

So the best thing you can do now is just continue reading and exploring what's out there. If there's any good stuff that we're totally oblivious to you can let us know through the upload requests. Thanks!

The better option would be to try to help scanlate it yourself or just leave the series alone in the hopes that someone else picks it up. Contact emails should not be used for update requests not only because it's rude, but because basically any answer they give you will be unsatisfactory anyway.
If you happen to know anyone with interest in working on it, then by all means give them a poke instead.

While I personally have not really interacted with the members of Yuri Project all that much, if at all, they've certainly been a significant part of my life over the years. I'm incredibly saddened and I wish nothing but the best for Ana's spouse and the Yuri Project community.

Procyon's post reads as thus:

While I'm still trying to get in touch with her spouse, I feel I should delay no further the sad announcement that

Ana, known here as Phyis, has passed away on 27 March, 2018.

Ana mentioned to friends and in messages here that she was struggling with her health, she passed away at home with her wife.

Ana took over running Yuriproject in 2013 with technical expertise and a very active role in scanlating manga. In my communications with her we talked mostly about hobbies and it was obvious she was a person who was quick to become deeply passionate in her interests in a variety of areas. She was someone who cared for the people that came to rely on her and worked hard even if only few would notice.

Good point. Adjusting now.

Edit: doesn't seem like I can think of anything funny for it. guess it'll just be romance

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, those of you anxious to see the continuing story of Fluttering Feelings will no doubt be saddened to learn that the author has passed away from cancer. News of her illness sprang up when the indefinite hiatus begun two years ago in a blog post after she had already undertaken steps to combat the cancer.
You may read a translation of her obituary at Halmoni's tumblr.

Thank you all for your very fervent discussions on our forum, IRC, and discord. And thank you SSamba for your compelling stories.

Honestly, I have no clue. We could certainly try it though if you have sample images.

You can certainly put it in for a request. We can probably try to think of a name or provide it the "No Title" name.

The missing page has been added in.

Page 143 has been corrected.

Based on the evidence that we've acquired, we have strong reason to believe the translator is ACK. They are the only exception to the rule of us necessitating permission before uploading anything and listening to takedown requests from scanlators if they change their minds.

As we are deleting by hand, the removal process will take a few days depending on how much available time we have.

I won't be getting into the nitty gritty details, but going into simple broad strokes isn't going to quite cut it in regards to understanding why things are the way they are now with the removal of their works. I won't be naming names.

After the release of Mermaid Lovers is when things started blowing up. The chapter itself was completely fine, however it was accompanied by a credits page that contained a mirrored Parteiadler depicting the 8chan site symbol instead of the swastika as well as containing a prominent panel with the text proclaiming "We're 'Ubermensch' Be careful not to stand out." This could have been be interpreted as typical -chan humor, but a forum member made it very clear that they did not like the imagery and thus made it known on the discussions thread for Mermaid Lovers. Having already made a name for themselves on the forums from other discussions, and also wielding a "Die Cis Scum" avatar, they were argued with by other users while the argument itself was mostly supported by others. Moderation was applied before the taking of the bait by the prominent forumgoer would spiral out of control.

Our deletion of infringing posts that came afterwards, from both sides, angered those who wanted to keep the credits page, as it was perceived we were treating our offending forum member with preferential treatment. Initially we were to receive a modified credits page, but negotiations broke down between us and the two groups separately as they requested the deletions, which they considered biased, stop or else they would have their works pulled. Things didn't calm down overnight as the forumgoer continued to instigate further drama after we had, at that point, stated that the page would stay. There then came some ethnic cleansing and gas chamber related posts by individuals connected to both 8chan's /u/ and Lazy Lily scanlations in hopes of stirring the pot. We ourselves had communication issues in relaying information and decisions and so things broke down even further. 8chan's /u/ wanted the credits page kept as a whole or else they would rather have everything off the site and Lazy Lily scanlations wanted their own works off the site in protest of how everything has been handled.

Thus, both group's works (with the exception of collaborations they've done with other groups such as 4chan's /u/ and Sexy Akiba Detectives) are to be taken down.

We are sad to see your efforts go; while we may strongly disagree on humor and internet conduct, yuri was the one thing keeping our separate groups in direct contact. Keep up the good work and I'm sorry things weren't resolved in a better fashion. Hopefully in the future we can to come to an agreement that works best for all of us and allow us to feature your works again.

Please visit https://8ch.net/u/ and http://lazylily.moe/ for their scanlations and discussions.

I can confirm that including DPF, Nez, Casusby, and myself that there are two.

I've decided to give this a try since IRC never really brings in that many fresh faces due to a variety of reasons (not that I don't like the current unfresh ones). So while this discord thing is booming (and hopefully they don't keep shooting themselves in the foot after the latest update), I wanted to try grab folks who didn't fit between forums and the IRC.
We're not abandoning the IRC, for those handful who actually visit, but it's certainly a function that not many use today. Technically we also have a twitter, but haven't touched that in ages. Maybe we'll revive it one day... (probably not).

For those who don't know what discord is, it's a chat client that you can have running in your browser or as a desktop application and comes with VoIP. Serves a lot of the same functions as other programs like TeamSpeak and Skype, but I'd say it's easier for public people to integrate into and it's also more aesthetically pleasing (although each program has its pros and cons). It was initially geared towards gamers but a decent amount of people have run with it to form their own communities that don't involve video games. Definitely easier to understand than IRC for most people, in any case.

Anyhoo, whether or not anyone uses it, it'll be there and DPF and I will be on there for much of the time like IRC. For those who do choose to use it, keep in mind that it will be treated as 18+.

I've been reminded how stupid this all is. When more evidence shows up (if any, since this could just be a fart) I'll make an informed post. I'll keep this here to remind me I suck.

OP
Perhaps less biased TL;DR from the comments

So I can't read/write/speak Korean, so this is all the information I really have to go on. This isn't to instill panic, but could be something you might want to look into if you're a patron/pirate of certain series such as What Does the Fox Say. As for whether your favorite authors have actively been involved (and thus potentially backlashed upon), I have no clue.

If you can understand Korean or happen to know more about this, I'm sure some of us would appreciate some more light being shed on this situation.

Edit: Huge lack of evidence and very clearly biased "source" that I managed to somehow ignore leads to a poor topic.

Holy shit i'm finally managing to play Dwarf Fortress somewhat!
I felt like i was reading the Matrix's codes when explaining my brother what was going on the screen

It helps a ton if you use a tileset. Makes it more immersive too if you're terrible at imagination like I am.

Also in other news, waifu bartending is out! Yuri related since the MC is a woman.

Edit: Not really yuri related since MC doesn't hook up with anyone. But it's LGBT friendly.

We do not host raws on our site. We will, however, host a few chapters of your efforts but will likely stop midway so as not to spoil the entirety of the volume. While there will be swarms of other sites that will host the rest of your efforts, I want to at least get slightly more people interested in purchasing volume 2 if they can manage to avoid the temptation. These few chapters will be taken down at the start of the new year in preparation for the Seven Seas release. These plans may change but that's the current choice for now.

It doesn't serve as much purpose as most other tags when it comes to searching.
What are you searching for when you search for yuri? At least a relationship involving two women.
What are you searching for when you search for time skip? An indescript amount of time separating a present to a future, which will vary in swaths of time from weeks to years. Occurs somewhat uncommonly in doujins? This tag won't suddenly make you enjoy what you've read (and you're searching to find stuff you'd like which a time skip doesn't fix if you dislike everything you read beforehand). Sure, it fit a few things, but we're not tagging just because it fit (we're not a -booru) as it's supposed to inform the user in a more meaningful way.
Dumb joke tags started with me, and continue because we're not against them. I was asked if I was for or against time skip and I voted against. The tag system isn't clean, pure, or not full of hypocrisy, but it works well enough for what we're intending it to do. We do take user suggestions (hell DrP waited 3 weeks for someone to fight for the tag but no dice... until now?), but the end say remains within the staff.
If we do decide to reinstate the tag, we'd definitely have to put a more strict definition on it than nothing at all.

There will be people who only visit our site to download as much as they want to and then leave. This is going to be more taxing on daily and monthly bandwidth than those who read things as they come by. So the limit was put into place to not only discourage that but to attempt to coerce people into visiting the scanlator's website to obtain it instead. I can't say how successful that is in regards to getting people to visit the scanlators but the limit seems to be of some use for now.

GOD on the rizon.net IRC has generously offered the server for us to use for free. That's why we have an 8 download limit for every 24 hours so as to help reduce bandwidth usage by discouraging mass drive-by downloads. An upgrade of the server would be a bit on the costly side so we stuck with this option.
