I remember the joys of translating Chaucer doing A-level English. The Canterbury Tales are far funnier in their original form, and it's amazing what a life Chaucer led. Spy, diplomat, playwright, lover...

Sadly, I only studied Latin. To this day, I still occasionally drop into "bam, bas, bat, bamus, batis, bant". This way me be why I find "Romanii eus Domunt" so funny.

"o table" Possibly the greatest Latin leading conversation of all time.

"Ite! Ite! Imperative!
Where? Where shall they go? "Ad domum"
Now write that one hundred times."
Still cracks me up!

That's better than what Google Translate comes up with. Add a little capitalization to the nouns and you'll be fine.

Apart from the plural in "the nouns" being a bit misleading, you are as usual correct in your assessment.

I lost quite a few points in some areas, but gained quite a few in others. Overall, I'm fairly happy. While some stuff went down, none of my statuses were reduced, but I did get an increase from bronze to silver author.

I'm back to bronze status in participants rep points.

I was platinum! What a fall that was.

Just think of all those milestone postings you can come up with again. Time to view this as an opportunity.

My opportunity was to get up to CG on Debator.
I have been put back quite a way!

Where did you see it was done? My chart-tab and about-tab show different values still, I assumed it wasn't done yet?

I said no such thing. That's the information I gleaned from previous threads about the ongoing recalcualtions. If you read all messages spawned below this post you'd see that we can't be sure that it's done until #1 (numero uno) tells us it is done.

Ah alright, all we need is just a little patience

It shouldn't have, but I deleted.

Bad news: The final rep recalculation failed an hour from ending overnight due to a network issue so I'm going to have to run it again in order to get the participant points updated.
I'm going to take the opportunity to fix recover some signin events we never had data for based on other logs.

What you hear now is the screams of a thousand CP Members gnashing their teeth (or in Henry's case, Gums).

Thanks for rising out of your tomb and posting this update (Dave inspired me to that ). I'll just wait until tomorrow then!

Participation reputation points are still missing.
Are the recalculations done yet?
