So, Germany won against Uruguay 3-2, the octopus was right again, and even though (or maybe because?) it was really about nothing it was a very worthwhile and entertaining match too and Müller scored again, if Villa and Sneijder don't score tomorrow he'll be top scorer due to more assists. Good times. Congrats to Uruguay too, they played a great tournament. Well, onto the final now. Somehow I fear it will end in a rather dull 1-0, but I hope I'm wrong.

Moved it over to "Major" now. XD And yeah, I left the old artists threads from 2007, I figured it's no point in recreating them all. Anyway, saw Versailles live 2 days ago. It was pretty entertaining. Fangirling wasn't that bad. Sure, lots of screaming, but only inbetween songs, not during them. I also got the distinct impression that Kamijo kinda liked being groped. At least he always was searching the contact with fans, reaching out into the audience etc. The band really seemed to enjoy the gig, despite the almost unbearable heat inside the room (several fangirls collapsed - wether that was due to the temperature or Kamijo touching them, I don't know XD) I'm still at loss what Kamijo was trying to tell us (in english) inbetween songs though. Something about star festivals and holy grails...

I just had to save these epic posts from a google-cached version of TW.net.

Well, if you have them saved somewhere else (like a Mediafire account) you can repost them here, maybe in one collective post, I thought about doing the same with my uploads.

Tw.net exploded (crash, damaged files) at just the worst moment it could happen. Dai had other things to take care of and then kinda went AWOL, so he probably won't fix it, and if he does, probably won't pay for hosting any longer, so we reverted to here.... XD Anyway, welcome back, glad you could make it. Re-vipped you. If you know any other old TW members, spread the word to bring them here too.

The "golden boot" is for the top scorer, so the number of goals are relevant (Spain didn't score that many goals, but most of the spanish goals were scored by Villa. Germany had a lot more goals than Spain, but it was distributed over several players.) The "golden ball" is for the "best player" of the tournament, and goals aren't so important here, but overall performance, even a goalkeeper can get the "golden ball".

Well, if Villa becomes top scorer he already gets the golden boot, why not let the golden ball for somebody else? Personally I hope that Thomas Müller gets the "Best Young Player Award".

I will once I find some time. May I ask though, was there a reason you put it in the "General" subforum? You could have posted it to the "Asian" forum of the Global section, because technically Israel is in Asia.

And what exactly did he do except missing the goal more often than any other player at the tournament?

I'll go with the octopus.

Sorry my dutch friends, but you are screwed: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/europe/10566287.stm

I confess I haven't checked out ther latest album yet, but Mabool was pretty great indeed.

Then you have picked some of the best. As you guys may have noticed, I also created a "general" subforum for global music, for broader topics and anything that isn't specifically "american" or "european", like this one.

Just like the old one. ----- Use this thread to ask for music recommendations. Perhaps this will reduce the redundancy of all the different recommendation threads being created. Feel free to ask for recommendations of any kind. TW's?MH's community here is rather diverse, so I'm sure someone here will cater to it. Since people will probably be asking for recommendations simultaneously, here are a few rules that will hopefully maintain order and keep confusion to a minimum. * DO NOT randomly post a list of bands that are completely unrelated to someone's request. * Refrain from any conversation beyond the topic at hand (in other words, STAY ON TOPIC AND DON'T SPAM). Irrelevant posts will be deleted as seen fit by the staff. * When recommending music to someone, address them by their username or quote their post * If you disagree with someone's recommendation, don't argue about it - recommend something of your own Those rules should be a given, but they're worth the mention. Anyhow, recommend away! Not looking for anything specific? Make sure to check out these cool threads before submitting a request!: PROJECT MIXTAPE: - 1st Edition - 2nd Edition - 3rd Edition NON-VISUAL KEI: - Underground Corner - Indie - Jazz - Metal - "Oldies" - Touhou Music

Folk metal fans, stand up and be counted!

Your ancient ava is the best. ? Can I save it for me and use it in another board? *-* Sure, go ahead. Actually that topic wasn't about egyptians being vk, but rather about egyptians being gay, and the apparent "proof" thereof was the fact that they used make-up.

Well, I didn't see the german game, because I was at the Versailles concert that evening. The event ended about the same time as the match, and my friend and I knew right away what happened, just by looking in the faces of all the people going home from fan fests, lol. Anyway, I'm not sad. They're a very young team and already performed far better than anybody here ever expected it. We'll own all of you at the next Euro and WC. The final is a close call. I'd say Spain, but the Netherlands already managed to beat Brazil, so anything can happen.

...there are no 29375378 topics about "OMG VOTE FOR JAPAN" here. Also: lol at my ancient avatar and sig. I'll keep it for a while for old time's sake.

Thanks ^____^
