• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

Translate this!

This is harder than I thought

Could we take another look at the rules, again?

~ The rest of us will now try to figure out what you started with. No one should give out any more translations until the current one is solved. Because of this, try to give hints out when needed {That means people should go ahead and ask for any if it's just too head-scratching} and be lenient with your judging. Getting it word-by-word perfect will be near impossible and would ruin the game. We might even have to call some a draw and move on with a new one, so remember that when picking a phrase. {And write the original phrase down if you have to. It'd be embarrassing if you forgot it}

~ Whoever gets it right will now choose the next phrase for the rest of us to figure out.
Since Boots was the last winner, we need to figure out his phrase, and whoever gets it right posts the next translation.
We've already had 3 people ignore this important rule >.>;

Anyways...
The identity had somebody, of which the end became to the ring of the tribune.
Perhaps something about andwhy's announcement and the action he's been taking?
I got 'protection' out of some other translations....

Okay, since this thread's been dead for like ever I think it's reasonable to drop the previous translations and start a new one, so here we go:

"Viva," the giant toaster, which could be a bag of mystery.

Close, but you misinterpreted the "bag of mystery" part.

"'Huzzah,' said the giant toaster, or lunchbox."
That's as close as we'll get.

Yeah close enough. It was "Huzzah," said the giant toaster, which might secretly be a suitcase.

Erm...
Did you use translation party or lost in translation...?

"With of the multidimensional data of the friend."
^
I'm *pretty* sure it has nothing to do with the companion cube...

Edit: And it's not "So I put a portal on you companion cube." because that becomes "Thus I put portone in its bucket like the companion."
^ I can has bucket like the companion?

No, "glove box" and "trunk" were in the original sentence.
