Blah.
Watch for major changes to the site (I think it's productive to keep the same URL for a new team, since we'll keep the WOW! stuff hosted on a tab or something). Same Yamada, somewhat new team, several of the old WOW! projects getting picked back up, very soon. Also, looking for one experienced editor who's confident enough to do the decensors on Anal Angel.

WOW!, Where the Hell is WOW!?
We aren't closing down... We are going to head into recruitment, since apparently Yamada being busy cripples everything. Here's what we're recruiting for:
Cleaner:
You know, I'm much more concerned about your ability to meet deadlines than your technical skill for cleaner applicants. We have two chapters that are more than two weeks overdue right now, and that just isn't cool.
Distro:
Basically, distro people just have to be around when the chapters get finished and handle getting them listed on mangaupdates, dump them on the various sites we like informing of releases, and stuff like that.
Translator:
Don't bullshit us on this one. Either you're good enough to translate manga, or you aren't. Some of our series do have furigana though, so if you think you're borderline, we can try starting you on those series.
At the moment, I end up being our only translator, our raw scanner, our distro, and our administrator. Basically, next week we're going to have meetings to try and spread this stuff around a bit more so that me being busy doesn't necessarily mean no releases for you guys (particularly, we've got an administrator/coordinator to try and enforce deadlines when I'm not around). Anyway, please feel free to apply, WOWscans@gmail.com - don't expect to start straight into anything until after we have the meeting next week and get everything back on its rails though. Sorry it's been so long guys.

WOW!, Where's Overdrive!?
Alright, since I'm behind, I figured you might want an updated idea of where we're at.
Overdrive 41: It's all my fault, but I'm behind on coursework as well, so it's not that I've forsaken you, I'm just fighting a cold or flu or something that's trying to happen, and real life kind of got in the way this weekend.
Past Future 2: The first of our joints with Hachimitsu. Handed all of our parts over already, look for something soon.
Reversible 2: Cleans are ready, translator on that one's running a little behind the schedule he quoted me. Should be soon, in any case.
Shiki: Yeah, we're picking it up. Hoping to find a dedicated translator to work on just this series, we'd like to fill in that 6-8 chapter hole in the translations as quick as we can.
Everything else is patiently waiting its turn in the queue. If you have questions about when we'll do the next chapter of a particular series, you can always email me or post in the forums.
I'd like to get Overdrive out during the week if I can, but it's likely that class will be a factor that prevents it. Either way, I have a five day weekend for Veterans' Day, so expect OD 41 and at least one other release to come between now and next week's classes starting on Tuesday.

WOW! We just kicked it into Overdrive!

Hey everybody, so here it is, our next series we picked up, it's Overdrive. This here is Chapter 39 and some extras from the volume release. I wish I could have been here to typeset this one but I was pretty busy so thanks to our pal, You Gon Get Giefed, for covering my ass while I was gone. Well here's the link for you all:

And here is the full volume:

Alright, now down to some business, I apologize for not being as eloquent as Yamada is with words so bare with me. Let's see, I put some notes somewhere... what did Yamada want me to say? Oh! Here we go.
So we enabled some ads, we aren't too sure exactly how this shit works so we'll be playing around with it for the next month or two sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Also by the time we release the next Prunus Girl, we might switch to depositfiles. Now this is just to cover the cost of more raws for Prunus Girl, and don't worry in case we do wind up switching we will keep updating the mediafire and our megaupload backup, they will just be behind the depositfiles one by about a week.
Also we have this voting survey thing in the sidebar, we are always willing to listen to our fans' input so please vote, now we aren't going to always have surveys up because we're not fags that always need them up like "IS EYEKAWA HOTLULZ!?! XD" "YES" "YES" "NO I'M A FAGGIT" so what little surveys we have are important and will be considered in our work. We will have more stuff coming as well thanks to NJMANGA (I'm pretty sure that's it) who will be providing raws for us. And because of this we are still actively looking for cleaners!
If you think you have what it takes feel free to contact us, our IRC links are over on the side there so come on in and start shouting at us, one of us is in there all the time so just try to get our attention, if we don't answer immediately I apologize, sometimes I just don't look and Yamada will eventually notice though and tell me.
Yamada will likely clean my shit up, so you'll have to deal with my shit post until he fixes it. Well, until next time!
