Heh. Anyway, Nostaw, before you look up individual words in a dictionary, you'll need to understand how a certain language works. I'll attempt to help you in deciphering Herr Gobbler's wonderfully crafted sentence, because I think it'll be very edifying. The rest of you can skip this part, as it will be about, you know, learning and stuff you apparently stopped doing ever since you realized it had never done any good to society.

So: 'minna-san' doesn't mean Mr. Minna. 'minna' means 'everyone'. Also, 'san' is not necessarily mister, it's just a suffix which you stick on the subject, that implies the speaker's politeness towards them. As you can see, Gobbler was being as polite to y'all as he could be without sounding overly sarcastic.
'Wa' is a great thing in Japanese language. It's another particle, which is supposed to mark the topic of the sentence (in this case, minna-san). It needs not be translated to anything.
You accidentally translated 'baka' correctly, so I guess we can move on...
...to the word 'desu', which I have already elaborated on.

So let's have a look at the result:
"Minna-san wa baka desu." ----> "Everyone" (<-- topic of the sentence) - "Stupid" - "Is." which is just the Japanese words put together and literally translated, but if you want a sensible translation, I guess you could say "Everyone is a dumb shit cuntrunt." There. Problem solved.

Fuck, I'm good.

I basically used your sentence to put across my own message.

So, Japanese is complicated. I hadn't realized that before.

It is, so don't start learning it unless you want to end up like me.

Yes, I think I've managed to scare everyone away from that.

I don't know what you're talking about, it's one of the most simplistic languages I've seen so far. All you need to know is how to insult individuals/groups/companies/religions and/or hamsters and you're ready to go.

You're forgetting about quite a fundamental part of it what is called 漢字 (kanji for those of you who can't read kanji or don't have Japanese fonts installed tongue.gif) That's enough to drive most people (including me) river-bottom-mud-sucking-badger-whacked mad.

That when you have to do it by hand, you don't have a smart program to convert the hiragana for you. tongue.gif

I know we're unkind and this discussion is a heap of bullshit, but we have to kill time somehow till the next game is out, so...

Ok, so let's at least talk about something productive. Like this:

Let's say I have a game I made myself. I don't want to make a website for it, since it's just one game, but I have somewhere to host the game itself and I can give you the link to download it. Just hipotetically speaking, of course. Where can I publish this game?

No, seriously. Abandonia Reloaded is quite a nice place to show your game, if you have a website for it, but that's not the case.

What I want is a website to publish some screenshots and a link to download the game. Do you guys know any?
