Wellington99 26 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 Greetings all! The name is GeneralPatton1000 but you can call me Patt or just GP1K (see what I did there?). Like my friend DrYuriMom and many others, this was my first Kickstarter. I was introduced to it by GaijinGoombah, (All hail the Admiral), and I'm glad I was. So looking forward to this game. A little about myself though. I am an avid naval enthusiast and faithful WoWS player. I hang out over on that forum a lot, roleplaying with Waltzcarer and others. I also play grand strategy games and a few other odds and ends. Anywho, I figured it was time I came along and got started here. Later. *Goes to stake out Dr's fanfic* *Sadly frowns in the corner with my fanfic* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scootia 1 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 Poi is the most overrated meme in kancolle. But I have a Yuudachi and she was one of my first destroyers so I can't hate her. What the VB Yuudachi will look like is a question for the ages. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dano 1 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 Poi is the most overrated meme in kancolle. Yep. It's easily the most annoying verbal tic I've ever had the displeasure of encountering.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nel Celestine 5 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 I apologize then. Having only recently encountered Kancolle and was looking for something to use for a welcome picture I thought it would be cute and funny. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RockyArby 16 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 I apologize then. Having only recently encountered Kancolle and was looking for something to use for a welcome picture I thought it would be cute and funny. I'm also a recent discoverer of Kancolle as well, and I still think Poi is funny so your not alone. I heard in WoWs that you can get her voice pack that replaces the torpedo alarm with her going "poi-poi-poi-poi" would love to see that.? But yeah I guess others don't find it as humorous.

DrYuriMom 21 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 I apologize then. Having only recently encountered Kancolle and was looking for something to use for a welcome picture I thought it would be cute and funny. Oh, it is, Nel! I was also trying to be funny, but flubbed likely. I've never played KanColle, but I do know the "poi" meme and am *very* familiar with the Japanese verbal tick shtick. "Nya" or "Nyan" is most common, but "poi" works too. I actually really am glad I never played KanColle, though. I like the artwork, but getting to the game and playing it with all the obstacles never appealed to me. But I like the concept, which is why I gravitated so enthusiastically here when VB was announced. The fact I never got into KC lore much also will help me when writing Japanese Belles for my fics. I have almost zero KanColle corruption, which I think will help ensure my renderings for VB are unique and unsullied by the other property. So please, Nel, pile on the poi! Note the ban is from Hawaii. Of *course* they'd want to discourage Japanese warships from coming too close. It's 1939 after all! It's a conspiracy! << >> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dano 1 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 "Nya/nyan" is a good verbal tic but is always better when rendered in English as cat-related puns. But "desu wa" will always remain the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
