[Razor789]

TLC for ch461 and ch463, please.

[Manga Reader X]

Are those chapters even translated yet?

[Ardaal]

And can I please presume the RAWs of these are in much better position than Camrip for B2W2? I mean at least I wouldn't need to cut out all parts individually and remake panel borders; and can just rotate the pics to make it look okay, right? x.x'

And what about type setting for B2W2? That might be worth putting here I think o.O

[Razor789]

Are those chapters even translated yet?

I mean when they are translated of course.

Edit: Sorry, didn't see the "Cleaning" part. But ch459-460 already have TLCers, so I wanted to pick up some other work.

Oh, I didn't know that you were done with the cleaning. *Added*

That camrip is probably the hardest thing you will ever clean while working at Team Special Scans.
The French Pokémon Special chapter 46 scans are a little hard to clean since the volume has been bent and scanned instead of being debound and scanned, but it is still much easier to clean than a camrip. Yugnat has translated that chapter and maronic02 is TLCing the translation now, so I'd say that chapter 46 has the highest priority on the list.

I mean when they are translated of course.

I'll add them to the list then. It will get cnonfusing if we list jobs that aren't even doable yet.

[Ardaal]

Oops my bad... I haven't completed yet x.x'
There are 3 pages left and then giving a final glance at about 10 pages to finish up any remaining grey spots or odd things... but fortunately I have 3 days off from today, so I am planning to finish this cleaning by this sudden vacation.

And can I take a look at raw for c46 may be please? I wanna first take a speculation on what kind of time this one may take before thinking of taking it.
Also I am wondering.. is it possible for more than 1 people to working in a cleaning project of one chapter.. I mean different people cleaning different pages of same chapter... just in case I know whether I can leave off c46 cleaning if I ever get suddenly busy due to college in the process of doing it x.x'

[Manga Reader X]

Ok. I'll send the scans to your e-mail address. It is possible to have multiple cleaners work on the same chapter.

By the way, Razor789, what chapter number does Kurokawa's chapter 46 really have?

[Razor789]

I don't have access to the chapter RAWs, but it is most likely ch45.

[Manga Reader X]

I'll give you access. Just remember that French Pokémon Special scans should never be released to the public.

[zorua]

ok, I can pretty much resume work now. My trials end tomorrow.
Any chapters or volume chapters need translations?

[Manga Reader X]

Depends on if the BW half of volume 43 has already been translated by /a/non via magazine scanlations or not. What do you think about that Razor789?
If all of those chapters have been translated you can start with volume 44: http://gameplayersdream.com/kunena/team-special-scans-permanent-hosting/102-pokemon-special-volume-44-raws#152

[Razor789]

No, it isn't. It is translated by VIZ though.

[Manga Reader X]

I think we should stick to fan translations, so we'll continue to translate volume 43 then.

[zorua]

ok so I'll start with C461?

[Manga Reader X]

Yeah.

[some]

After I've finished the remaining cleans I'd like to take up the side stuff, which is 'allowed' to take its time. I might clean some of the main stuff again during vacation, but right now I'll have to concentrate on my studies.

[Manga Reader X]

You mean like Mobilize?

[shiningshinka]

Are we still looking at chapter 45? I'm finally back on after... a month.

[Manga Reader X]

Yeah.

Shiningshinka & Reinvented:
Split up chapter 45 and 40 between you and translation check them.

MaxCheng 95:
Translation check chapter 41.


What's the Chinese text at the Poké Ball in the right bottom corner of 32, 36, 40 and in the top right corner of 45? What's the Chinese text in the left bottom corner of 51? Looks like an ad for the next magazine maybe.
Dreamingflowe has checked the chapter 40 translation, but can't find Bianca's dialogue for panel 1 on page 12.

[Macromind101]

Oh sorry, didn't see this thread until now. If you still need someone to QC those two chapters, I can do it.

[Manga Reader X]

It's fine. Those chapters aren't ready for QCing yet, I just figured that I should list chapters a little early, so that people notice it in time.

The volume 43 scans bleed quite a lot. Are you sure that you can recognise such bleeding?

I can try...

[Manga Reader X]

Ok
I've signed you up for those chapters. I'll let you know when they are ready for QCing.
