Well I'm still waiting for their replay, if i works out that would be great, if not I don't know what to do... You guys are the only ones that could help me since I don't have any friends in Slovenia, so I know I'm asking too much but if someone is willing to do that for me I'll drive in Slovenia and settle the payment in a heartbeat.

 

04/18/09 6:08 AM

If by monday they don't answer your mail, I'm calling .. and as far as "still available tickets" ... no worry ... I ordered it on wednesday and date of payment is may 5th and only then the ticket reservation is confirmed ... so that means that someone can still step off. What I'm curious of is .. whether there're going to be enough participants for filling minimum criteria of 20 seats, so that I don't have to worry about the 'transport' - ? - and I'm still waiting for official confermation of the date ... or should i say .. hoping everything goes as planned (and that everyone will be OK to rock the stage) .. nice to see some updates of rehearsal, btw.
Ana - pm me - if you need anything.

 

04/18/09 6:20 AM

oh, 1 more thing, hmm, I'm not that familiar with 'posting on forum' and the 'time zone setting' .. but why the f* do I need to set a time on "South Africa" so that the posts show the actual time? - Sorry in advance for a stupid question, it's just that this whole ET, UTC, GMT rules do mess with my head.

Ok, I see I've posted my reply before Ana's post - don't get it - it's time to log out.

Thanks acerchiata

Po domace:
- gres v svoj account, kje je avatar zgoraj desno na tej strani
- kliknes Account Settings, ki se nahaja v istem predelu kot je napis "acerchiata is a 25 year old cuddly little teddy bear from Slovenia" le, da je skrajno desno (poleg Upload photos)
- odpre se ti Account Settings, poleg pa imas se moznost za Forum settings. Klikni tam.
- pod Timezone izberi GMT+1 (Berlin, Paris, Rome, itd)
- jaz imam sicer Daylight Savings odkljukano, ampak mi ne dela prevelikega problema

Bo kul?

ana - we will work it out, don't worry.

 

04/18/09 10:03 AM

you guys are the greatest!

 

04/18/09 10:51 AM

allora po domace ... ce si nastavim tako kot si napisal - hvala, btw - mi se vedno pise ura manj kot je v resnici ... ampak smesno je, ker sem odgovarjala na post od Ane, cas posiljanja pa je naveden, kot da sem ga napisala pred njo (ali samo jaz tako vidim?).
(spreminja besede s stresicami?)

 

04/18/09 11:04 AM

Ok grem nazaj na "Afriko"grinning smiley - and yeah, love to cuddle, but I'm not that little.
Thank you, for making me feel welcome even though I'm still not comfortable with writing to much. (So my guilty pleasure is reading - ETS winking smiley and love ishtmail's ART)thumbs up

Vidim tudi jaz isto (ja, izgleda malo hecno). Mogoce pa za nazaj ne popravlja? Who knows, ta forum ima se par zuzkov.
Ampak, ce si zdej casovni pas spremenila, potem bi moralo biti od tega "popravka" dalje dobro - ceprav to je samo slepo ugibanje smoking smiley Napisi se par postov pa bos videla. V najslabsem primeru lahko se zmeraj sporocis mehanikom v temu namenjeni temi.

*Edit: no ja. Lahko vseeno poskusis.

I do not know if this is an issue only I am having, but several of the forums seem to be reporting time 1 hour in the past.

Right now on my computer the nin.com forums are correct, the nine inch nails forums are 1 hour off in the past, the nin tour forums are correct, the general forums are a mixture of incorrect and correct, the creative forums look incorrect also.

I have no idea why this could be happening, but I am seeing new posts being made and the time shows 1 hour in the past. I am in the correct time zone setting.

Is this just a bug being worked out or am I losing my mind?

Have you set your daylight savings time in account settings? That would cause a 1 hour shift.

I can attest to this issue as well. For example, I may make this post right now at my current time, 3:30pm, & will reflect that. But then let's say someone makes a post at 3:35, it may show that it was made at 2:35 instead.
I have noticed this as well and was just coming here to post about it. Its makes you think you are losing your mind when you post something at, say 9:30pm, and then come back to the thread the next post is at 8:31pm.

I guess I'll also add what I kept editing out of my original posts regarding Daylight Saving. I live in Mountain Time & my state does not participate in DS. One would imagine I could select Mountain Time, NOT check the DS box & have the correc time. No, it still puts me an hour ahead. So I have to select Pacific Time & check the DS box for my correct time. It's not a bother, just...odd.

Hrm. I will look into it...

I'll call Eventim on monday and see if that is true.

 

04/18/09 11:27 AM

Wow, you really looked that up. I don't wanna waste your time, so no rush in answering, but considering your role as chat moderator - I'm tempted to enter, just not today, never been quick with the fingers and neither with witty remarks, but for giving me the taste ... How crazy is it "in there"?spinning smiley sticking its tongue out
Now I have to go, my dog has needs.

 

04/18/09 11:32 AM

Upper post is for perchee.
Ana, hi - that's great! I admit, I've been attending concerts in Slovenia and Croatia, but never "in foreign land" ... so this time it's gonna be my firsteye popping smiley .. and i'm happy-relieved I'm not alone on the road.

 

04/18/09 12:41 PM

Well there's a first time for everything. I'm happy that I've finally found people that like NIN as much as I do, and live near me so we never have to go alone anywhere anymore.

 

04/18/09 4:34 PM

You're wasting no one's time, darling. Besides, the search + read through + copy-paste was well under two minutes so it wasn't really a hard work at all.

As for the chat, if/when you join in, just go with the flow. It's more or less like going to a real life party: there are nice folks, there are quiet folks, there are attention whores, there are important folks, there are folks who act like kids and - of course - there's always someone trying to poop on your parade. Sometimes you meet all of those folks, sometimes you meet just ones, sometimes nice folks and quite folks are the same people. And sometimes there's no one at the party or everyone appear to be dead.

Quick fingers and witty remarks are optional but not a must. And of course, you are welcome at any time.

ana - i'm glad you got your answer. But what exactly does it mean, is there going to be a bus from Zagreb going to Milan or is the bus going to our meet point in Ljubljana and continue with us from there on? Just wondering.. grinning smiley

 

04/19/09 4:15 AM

Well to be honest I don't know either. I'm calling them on monday to make sure if they'll have the tickets. If so I'm quite sure the bus will leave from Zagreb, or there is a possibility of leaving from Slovenia, like a few years ago. I gotta go watch the end of F1.

 

04/19/09 11:35 AM

Happy Easter, guys. At least those of you who do celebrate it these days.
I liked the way F1 race ended. I've been Button fan since his first race back in the days of Ferrari and not seeing more or less same faces getting poll positions and winning races makes me happy. Too bad for Force India though.

 

04/19/09 1:36 PM

A Button fan, he is a great driver and finally has a car to prove that. I'm not so happy the way things ended because I'm a fan of Alonso, as for Force India yeah too bad what happened to Sutil.

 

04/20/09 5:47 AM

So I called Eventim and they don't have the tickets and don't know shit.
Jednom rije?i PIZDE.
So if anyone of you is willing to help me out I would be very grateful.

 

04/20/09 10:23 AM

Ana, pm me or send me a msg through facebook. Have to go now, but I'll be back in an hour.


ok - I've send you a pm. Think about it and you can contact me tomorrow.
Today was a hell of a day, jee, I even had to work on sunday and now I've found out that maybe I won't be able to take 3 days of next week, to be FREE, when I was planning to go to Swiss sad smiley- stress. I need some CHOCOLATE.

I never thought i'd find an English version of this word that would so nicely describe its juicy elements.. until i heard of "cunt".
Another thing, i wouldn't be so pissy about them not knowing since, you know, there is a possibility they don't have tickets yet and will maybe get them next week. But if you rather not wait, you'll get help on getting your ticket from us.

Speaking of Facebook, i've been neglecting it on a major scale ever since i got on Twitter. As one guy on ETS said it "Twitter is for Facebook users who change their status every 5 minutes". I don't change it that often but.. so, so truetongue sticking out smiley

In not so related news, Ljubljana is going to get Titova ulica back. I just heard it on late-night news. 'Sweet'.

 

04/20/09 11:47 PM

I officially adore perchee smileys with beer Yesterday I didn't even have time to read the news and I don't own a TV, so here comes the good side of forum-use, getting the news about your own country. Thanks. Let's see if someone dares to change 'our slogan' on Sabotin Hill.cool smiley

Don't get me wrong they screwed me once before, during the With Teeth tour, so I don't believe a word they say, and I'd be very happy if we could all meet.
So acerchiata I have one idea, I'll pm you.

Well, facebook I've started to use this year, but only to find "old lost friends" from "happy" childhood (the only reason that I don't cancel my account). I barely even communicate there, so twitter for me would be no use (for now), exc. following Trent's tweets that make me laugh in the morning (or later if he wakes up early)and Stephen Fry's (huge respect for this guy, mostly for his blogging).
And yeah, curse words ... what would our nation be without them?

'Posting' time still screws with me.

acerchiata - however, Jonas made a good point:
posted:
Dobili smo Titovo. Ne bo dolgo, napovedujem, najve? do prihodnjega župana(ke).
Knowing our politicians, this option is very possible. And if/when it happens, it will be named after Slovenian politician most people don't care about anymore or he means nothing to them.

As for Twitter, there are some good people to follow (also, your responds can be sent via text message so it's not really that complicating). Stephen Fry is no-man's land when it comes to this - apparently he tweets like a mad man. So unless you're not following a lot of people, it's suggested not to follow him (and just check is profile more often).

ana - i had no idea you were already screwed by them. In that case, i can't really suggest you what to do. Use your intuition. As for pretty words, yes, what would we as (ex-)Yugoslavs be without them? By the way, i'm not familiar with your age but i was in diapers when Tito died, had a chance to become "pionir" (i think my mom still keeps that blue hat somewhere) and was taught cyrillic at 'Serbo-Croatian' class in elementary school, 3rd grade, i think.
Wow, time flies.

 

04/21/09 7:43 AM

I'm 24 so I was not a "pionir" missed out on that one.
Yeah they screwed me once, idiots, so when it comes to nin I don't trust them, cause most of them don't know who they are.
Oh the pretty words, couldn't live without them.winking smiley
I kinda know Slovenian from TV back when Kanal A and Pop TV had a decent program, and all of my neighbors are part Slovenian, so I know how to speak it but when it comes to grammar...

 

04/21/09 7:20 AM

I remember the first day of my primary school - they gave us one little notebook with themed note pages for upcoming years to fill(books you read, places you visited). And we had to prepare ourselves for some sort of inauguration, I was supposed to do a recital, instead we did a play about a boy and his missing white shirt .. and then on the very same day they told us, that we weren't going to be "the pioneers" ... generation 83. No wonder we turned into the dance freaks ... Discipline, my friends.

Oh well,I guess I should post here too,since I currently live in Serbia.

Nice to meet you guys.

Pozdrav svima.

 

04/21/09 11:45 AM

Hi Ceki

 

04/21/09 10:59 AM

Hahahaha.
ana - if by "Kanal A and Pop TV had a decent program" you mean hardcore porn on Friday nights, then.. yes. It was decend. Other than that, i think one tv is just silly extension of the other and both have major suckage when it comes to news and bad timing when it comes to movies (meaning, some of the actually good ones are usually shown at absurd late hours).
That said, when we meet, you just speak Croatian and i'm sure most of you will understand most of what you'll say. Simple like that.

acerchiata - hahaha awww. Your description of pionir innaguration thing appears to be like someone took a giant cookie right in front of your mouth. Damn! I remember some of that day. Like, the cake at the end of the show was good and still didn't get used to my new classmates and was wondering "Hell, i'll be spending 8 years with these guys?". Ahhh.

Hey Ceki, welcome.

 

04/21/09 1:40 PM

You boys only think about porn. (But if i can recall there was a show I think it was called moške zadeve, that was fun to wach and it was on friday).smoking smiley
I meant stuff like Seinfeld, I can never get enough of that show, Costanza is the best.
But other than that your TV isn't too good, ours too.
I'll speak Croatian no doubt about it, just ask when there is something you don't know. (by that I mean Zagreb slang ili ti šatra).
