a thread for anyone and anything that has to do with everything balkanic. now, there's a quite a number of us, slovenians, over at ETS but i'm hoping this will also be a stop-by for all croatians, serbs, bosnians, macedonians, albanians, greeks, bulgarians, romanians and some of the turks as well.

probably because we lack of real NIN shows in our area. show some support!

since ryan is half-greek, his post was kind of relevant >;]

Ohh, the invasion has spread.. Awesome, but could get confusing what with two threads and all winking smiley. Maybe we'll catch more of "us" that way.
I think we should also welcome Slavic people in general.

we could catch more of "us" that way, besides only a few joined ETS and a fewer joined the spiral. let's leave ourselves to be surprised, especially with possible next year's european tour, shall we?

ps - lolz at the image.

I <3 Balkans

Funny thing about that map you posted Perchee.. It doesn't show Slovenia as a Balkan country. You must think Slovenia is too good for dirty Balkans. PFFFT


Kidding. What did Isht say when you informed him about this stuff? (You have, haven't you?)

 

08/19/08 7:08 PM

How is the invasion going? May I join in? smiling smiley

(perchee, please fix that turkeys thing, we don't want feathers flying all over the place if those nasty wonderful birds accept your invitation to invade) winking smiley


edit: Nyx you're right, there should be no discrimination here. I apologize to those lovely birds for calling them nasty smiling smiley

How about some Turks?

 

08/21/08 12:11 PM

Of course! But only if turkeys are allowed as well, after all this is not a discriminatory thread winking smiley. Plus, they're nice birds.

 

08/23/08 3:30 AM

and they're yummie, too. and fixed, sorry :/

i have. his first response was "hahaha, what a timing" or sort of (i'm too lazy to check my text messages history). i think he has good reason now to cancel that wedding invitation and join us on the meet.

i've actually met two girls from bulgaria last year at the nin show in prague. they spoke bulgarian, i talked slovenian and somehow we understood each other.

 

08/26/08 12:22 PM

So, whassup bitchez? Jebo vam pas mater i sve po spisku!

This is like home away from home (aka ETS balkans thread)... where shall we discuss all the relevant (mis)haps and alcoholism?
And meets?


Oh, guys, Xvostya (the russian guy on ETS) mentioned that he might venture to Slovenia in autumn. Nothing certain, but looking much better than Neroli here (you big tease! Show us what you got, don't just text-art us!) who promises and doesn't deliver.

And... Nyx? Like the basketball team? Hmmm

Are our languages close? I've never heard Slovenian...

Prague... Is that the closest we can get? I'm starting to think I'll never see NIN live.


Oh and Nyx, are you a mansonusa.com member? Your avatar looks familiar.

well not really but since it's "similar" and using some imagination, it may work for short time. i should have said it better: mostly, we did talk in english but we had moments of speaking in our native languages.
prague was not the closest place for the meet. it just happened that i was in prague and they were going to the show. somehow, i still hope for show in the balkans area of the next european tour. hey - if it's in serbia, it'll be kinda close for all of us >:]

Yes, hmmm. I am a big sports fan, don't you know.

Nope. I am on ETS though, maybe you know my avatar from there?

If Trent ignores the Balkans one more time I'll be upset for a whole week. May not sound as much, but it's a whole lotta hours. And tears.

can't help it but..
Wix posted:
1. It had to be short (this is back in the days of 8-character filenames, at least on the system I was using)
2. It had to have an 'X' in it (because X is the coolest letter, ever)
case solved, class dismissed.

 

08/27/08 4:20 PM

Haha! But not really.

 

08/28/08 9:04 AM

Why can't you just be happy and thankful when someone says you're cool like Wix?

 

08/28/08 4:18 PM

Because I am a bitter, misanthropic, hollow little person?

really, wix is cool because of different things. and if he was a chick.. man, she'd be way cooler than all of you. besides, why the hell are we talking about a brit transgender connected to the "if... stories" in balkans thread?

post relevant things. like, the upcoming SLO/RUS meet.
>:]

 

08/28/08 10:02 PM

Yes, news about that:
I've been in contact with Xvostya quite a bit about this, and things are really looking up!
The most likely scenario would be the end of September / start of October. We've been checking some flight dates, and some flight/return flight combinations look promising (as in, cheaper than others, while leaving enough time in between).

No idea what Xvostya will end up choosing, but October 3rd-October 8th looks like the best option (5 days, a weekend in between, and the cheapest flights available).
Now it's up to him to actually decide, get a visa and a plane ticket, and get his ass over here.

Anyway, you guys make sure to put every plans that you might have in that general timeframe aside. Let's MEET!

 

08/29/08 4:52 AM

Oh nice! Who'll provide the alcohol?tongue sticking out smiley
But seriously, it'll be nice to meet a foreign fellow ETSer. I don't think I've ever met one.

 

08/29/08 2:04 PM

Didn't you meat TimA? Or do you not count him as a foreigner?

Nope. I've never been to Slovenia.

I want Nyx to answer the second question.

edit: I'd like to visit your country though. One day I'll hopefully get my arse over to those parts.

Yes, you do that. Plane tickets are pretty cheap these days. London - Ljubljana = £25 (from October onwards) so... You have no excuse, really winking smiley.
