User talk:Calua

Welcome Claudia323


Hi! Welcome to the wiki! I read your profile, if you reach only episode 385 then this wiki is a bit spoiler, just to let you know... but probably you already notice yourself! I'd like to ask you one thing: are you by any chance Italian? Because if you are, then consider the idea to come to the Italian Wiki as well, since we need editors there too! Anyway this site is pretty well-made, so enjoy your stay! (please read a bit the guideline pages to avoid mistakes)

<3 Here you go ..
Yo Calu-cha, MDM here

I wanted to show this to you yesterday but could not find your talkpage so better late then never.

Your lovely prince, MDM

Yes you do hate me -.- Weirdowithcoffee 04:22, December 28, 2011 (UTC)Weirdowithcoffee

No.1 Op Female Tournment
Ok Calu-cha so here is how its done ... 50 >> 25 >> 15 >> 6 >> 3 >> 1
 * 1) You will have to choose 50 female characters from One Piece female list. You can choose more but you have to stay in even number like 75 or 80. Here is link to all female members of OP http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Female
 * 2) You will have to make groups. If you choose 50 females then you make 5 groups of 10. You make 5 blogs or make all 5 polls on one blog which are "knock out Round blog" where out of 50 only 25 advance and it will be polls. So from poll of 10 the once with top 5 votes advance.
 * 3) Then comes "Advance Round Blog" where you make 5 polls of 25 who advanced from last round. From every poll of 5, the top 3 with most votes will advance. By the end we will have 15 females who will advance to Quater Final.
 * 4) In Quater final there will be 3 polls of 5 females each. From 5, the 2 with most votes will advance to Semi Finale wich will be 6 females.
 * 5) In Semi Final there will be 3 polls of 2 females each. From the 2 the one with most vote will advance to final which will be 3 females.
 * 6) In final it will be ONE poll with all 3 females who advanced from Semi-final. Three-way poll and the winner will be crowned as NO.1 Female of One Piece.

Note: So there it is Calu-cha. If you have any other Question or need help then feel free to contact me or just ask Mj cause he knows the polls and stuff.
 * The Polls will run for 2-3 three days. You decide.
 * Post warning of "No Trolling" on every blog for trolls.
 * In case if there is a tie, extand the poll time line 1 more day and if it still remain a tie then we will just choose it by luck or flip a coin XDXD

Good luck and hope for its success.

Ahou King MDM 06:35, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Don't listen to MDM, that's a silly tournament format.

There's 157 people in the category: females, so here's what you do:

1. 16 Groups, 13 with 10, 3 with 9. Top 4 in each group advance

2. That'll leave you with 64, so you do a round of 64 single elimination

3. Round of 32

4. Round of 16

5. Round of 8

6. Round of 4

5. 3rd place match

6. Finals

That'll leave you with a fair and easily manageable tournament. If you need help setting up the brackets, let me know, I recommend you set up the brackets with a random number generator: http://www.random.org/

13:06, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Oh another thing ^^
Don't listne to Panda >_> I think she is in love with me(cause she is stalking my master plans) just kidding, TT^TT she still hates me. Actully do as she says if you want to take all females that are in One Piece. All 167.

BUT !!!! another reminder that i forgot to mention.

'''MAKE A ANNOUNCEMENT BLOG !!!!! '''

'''You have to make a blog that announcec this tournment and lets everyone know how will it work. Ask Panda, she may have a idea.'''

p.s. why you keep apolozising about "spelling correcting" ??? its not your fault that i am such top level spelling and grammar fail TT^TT you are doing good job and please keep it up.

Good Luck. Ahou King MDM 19:18, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah Karu, it's my fault for not being able to make him stop failing grammar so much after more than half a year! (although I can see that he improved and that is a good thing, although he makes some fails just to annoy me like "Rock'N'Rolee" which just infuriates me. A DISGRACE ARGH!)

STOP !!!!!
Please stop Calu-cha.

I just got message from DP that the contribution that we are making is too small and not needed. So please stop.

I made it sure with him but looks like he did not unserstood what I was trying to say so when he saw the edits we were making, he got it and found it wrong.

So please stop. Looks like its back to spelling and grammar check again TT^TT.

Still its worth it.

ok Good luck. Ahou King MDM 05:30, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Also ..
I got another message from DP that we should remove the changes me made on the pages me made. So please go back to where you started and remove the changes.

thanks. Ahou King MDM 05:32, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Please Tournament
First of all the annual character turnament starts in febuary....... which will be run by me and youn if you want to help let me know

Second if you do want to procede with this limit it to 16 24 or 32 characters either you decide or have people input names.

Re:Birthday
Thank you!

Selby
Caly I'm sorry for leaving when Selby entered but please don't feel envy or anger towards her.

Also I think we 3 should talk one day to get this cleared up since you don't seem to be totally over this cause as soon as you saw selby you wanted to leave, dunno if it was coincidence or cause of selby.

THANK YOU!!
Thank you very much,Calu.I cant believe I was 100% sure I am going to leave the wiki yesterday,and I prepared myself for messages that will make me stay,but I tried to train myself to not get my decision affected by them.

It seems like I love you guys too much and I just cant leave like this,I cant leave my little sister unprotected,I cant leave such a foolish brother alone,I cant leave the person I love so much,and of course I cant leave right now,when my captain just took a break from the wiki.

I also really want to talk with you on chat Calu. 05:57, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Congrats
Congrats caly for being the new chat mod, don't make mine and MDM's sacrifice be in vain. Hope you keep your promise too me.

Plz
Well I know how much you hate me right now and I can perfectly understand why.I have to recognize I was really surprised to see you so angry before you went to school,since a few hours ago you seemed really fine.

I left this message on your talk page,cause I want to ask you to not ignore me,and if you will be able to stay more tomorrow(when is morning for me),plz do it.Since we started the discussion today,I want to finish it tomorrow,cause were werent able to do it today.

I apologize once more,even though I will never ask you to forgive me,I will only ask you to talk with me and listen to me.

12:48, March 9, 2012 (UTC)

Dont sign Cleopatras treaty. Dont.

Birthdays
Hi, Evanalmighty told me that you added the new birthdays, I assume they come from blue deep, but can you tell me where did you get them from? I'm trying to make a list of every birthday we know, thank you.

hi
hi ! i try to change marco profile photo because its gross :D plus it taken from a filler part, lets change this, what do you say ?

ok, i understand :)

How to disable / stop poll voting?
Calu / Tucky (whichever of you who can reply first), I know how to create a poll for people to vote, but now I've decided its time to end the voting period, how do I disable the poll or stop people from voting? Thanks 10:06, March 20, 2012 (UTC)

Happy Birthday!

Hey Calu-chan, don't think of it as getting older, rather regard it as becoming a classic XD! Happy Birthday. 19:03, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Happy Birthday!!
It's now exactly 0:06 in Maryland (because of my stupid computer crashing when I want to be punctual >_>)

=_= thou I already wished you happy B-day yesterday on chat but if I don't add my wish on your talk page with your other friends then I might regret it till your next B-day >_>

Now for a traditional and embarrassing B-day song ..

qCJSNMqub8g

Well since I have embarrassed you enough, time to make my final wishes ..

Happy Birthday Calu and may your upcoming year is 100X better, awesome and fun year then your previous.

-- 16:01, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for the late message, but. Happy Birthday Karu!!

I prepared a little gift for you...well, not only one XD

A new sig I made for you. I hope you like it more than the other one, if you don't like it, don't worry, I can make another one!

Then I also made this: http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/User:Ricizubi/Profile_Design

I hope you will like this profile design, scroll down to see the Favorites subpage as well, now the only thing left needed are tabs, but I want to ask you which tabs would you want, User:Ricizubi/New_Tab_Style, Normal tabs or a new style of tabs. Not only that, but I would also love to suggest you a subpage where you can enumerate your friends and the reason you like them as your friends....weird idea, but I thought it might fit you.

Also if you want anything changed, just tell me! Anything!

So may this be one of the best days ever, enjoy yourself to the max and be happy, smile throught this day! :D

And have fun, I'm not sure if I will be on chat when you come today, but may fortune smile upon you.

hey Calu belated happy b-day.. too bad I wasn't able to make you a present.. sorry (._.) xDD 14:03, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

seems like my message want's to be clingy with Rici's no matter how many spaces I make -.- 14:12, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Happy Birthday Calu !!!! :D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Hey Calu, sorry for being late but anyway.......

Re: Happy B-day
Thanks for the Bday wish Caly ^^

SUNSHINE!!
Long time no see, sweet sunshine :)

I am sorry I left the chat like that, now I am kinda back.I am using kinda since from now on I am turning into a only partially active member, so I wont be so much time on chat from now on.

I missed you sooooo much TT^TT I cant wait to talk with you TT^TT.

(To be honest I expected a message on my talk page from you, not MJ, so I am a bit disappointed right now)

Love ya litter sister :)

(If you are going to reply on my talk page(I hope you will)be sure to put the nickname you found for me there, or if you didnt find one, be sure to find one before replying :D

10:22, April 17, 2012 (UTC)

A rather better apology
A simple sorry isn't enough to tell you how much I regret how I reacted. It was never my intention to let the hole die THT thing go so big and into my head, I hold no grudge towards THT, I just dislike him a little, it isn't anything too serious but...

The way you reacted when you saw that reflected perfectly what I would do in past times. Seeing you act exactly like me made me totally paralyzed, and the idea that I was arguing with you again triggered my bad side. I managed to keep my calm and never call you names but I must say my answers were extremely rude.

I crossed the line again, like I always seem to do with everything related with you, I dunno how you can still moister any force to forgive me anymore, yet you still do, you never cease to amaze me.

The hole situation was kinda funny actually, I felt like I was talking to myself to some extent, but still aside from all I'm deeply sorry for it

Profile page
Hey there ♥

I noticed you blanked out your profile page, did anything bad happened? Or was it just a random thing?

If you need any kind of help I you can always tell me ;) Let me know if there is something, ok?

Cya tonight

Calu!!
I just saw you removed everything on your profile.Calu if you see this message please come and talk with me, I really feel horrible and I really want to talk with you.

It'd be so nice if you sang this to me Karu. One day was hard surviving, but I did it! Be sure to come back, not sure I will survive those idiots much longer >_>. Hope you will come-by every day to check the wiki XD. I was preparing to have a concert to commemorate you and to announce your break. We all need a break from this madness! This madness we call the One Piece wiki chat! http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/194/thisistheopwc.png/ I guess you deserve this break. You've managed to protect the chat for so much as a chat mod! Me and the other chat mods will handle the rest! So don't worry about troll or spammers or problems on the chat.

Don't be far away for far too long. Please. I'll be waiting for you on the chat smiling :D. Just come back, that's all. I'll do my best to take care of that chat that I love so much!

Farewell
Calu, I really have to tell you I regret everything I ever did to you.Words cannot describe what I felt today...and what I will probably feel for much more time.Today I officially left the OP wiki forever and I am totally sure about this decision so we might not see each other ever again...thanks for everything.

20:22, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Break
Thank you for that message on my talk page TT_TT

I'll miss you as well :'(

Love you ♥

Marines
Hi ! I want to ask about Marines page ; http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Marines

at the bottom, there is a chart about marines officers, and it is says ; Aokiji(retired)

I think he is resigned, because, if he defeats Akainu he will become fleet admiral but after he lose the fight he can't stand it and resigned, sengoku and garp's age is different from aokiji and even for them they can continue their job.

Cleaning
Hi, have you cleaned yourself the raw of chapter 669? How can you remove the dust without blur the whole picture? And where did you find the raw? I download it from here, but chapter 669 was 118MB, have you another version of it? Thank you.

I see thanks! I usually fix the white and black level and then use the dust correction tool. A bit of advice: you should convert the palette to black and white for manga images, since that way you will reduce the file size.

Hey
Are you back? If so then welcome back. SeaTerror 17:05, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

That's good. I've been sick so I haven't really tried anything for the scanlation. My translator is doing a series right now as a joint project though. SeaTerror 17:21, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

Yo
WOAAAAAH LOOK WHO'S BACK!!

Welcome back, Miss Break :D :D :D.

15:20, June 10, 2012 (UTC)

I cant come back...sorry...but I somehow feel like you dont care much if I come back or not XD.(trying to get used to XD as well, not only :D)

Calu, I would really like to have a discussion with you...a long one...can you plz come on Skype right now?(Its better to discuss in private, so we can avoid any useless drama on the wiki)

Are you ok?
Hey Calu. Ever since you've returned back from your break, I noticed you've seemed sort of a lot more cynical and non-talkative as you were before. Are you alright? I'm just making sure. Gather ye rosebuds while ye may. 23:51, June 13, 2012 (UTC)

Caring About the Size
Just sayin', the reason why we care about the size ratio of those pictures is because in the templates they have to be square. It was something Yata told me once, we gotta have them a perfect ratio. 04:39, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Don't think of it as "cheating". Think of it as "spicing up the love life". Besides, I broke up with him. I tend to do that when I just get in a relationship.

BTW I'm breaking up with you. 06:48, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the birthday wish Calu ^_^ Aki   Talk 04:41, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Profile.. wut the...
Yeah. Also, I just realized this but why'd you change your name? 04:29, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Haha that's cool! There's only one Calu in this world, but you had me puzzled for a while. Also, this title was the exact reaction I had when I first looked at your new profile. I also changed my profile from a long draggy essay to simple stuff, but the colors aren't very catchy anymore. I wish I was skilled in animation so that I could make a gif of myself swimming in the water! Talkpage isn't all that interesting either but being the lazy fish-head I am, I don't really care anymore XD 06:29, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Nah, it's actually pretty helpful for those who want to make their talkpages pretty but don't know any code. At least it was for me when I left a note on my own talkpage saying I'd be away for 3 months or so. I don't know if you were here at the time though. I took a peek at Yazzy and Jinbe's page back then XD 20:53, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Well at least the colored box with a random OP character looks similar. The code and the border, maybe not so much :p Originality is a win! I'm pretty sure I got the code for my sig's border from one of those talk page headers too. Too lazy of a heart for creativity. 12:51, August 18, 2012 (UTC)

Fiddlesticks
Sorry when I saw the message I forgot to answer and then I closed the tab and well... yeah basically I forgot.

Anyways, No I am not coming back fully, I might hop on chat rarely if Rici menaces me enough, or if Jinbe pops up.

What if I show up?

Re:Hey, umm...
Hey Calu, sorry if I sounded a bit mean in the PM, its just that I feel weird how I became a total stranger on OP wiki >_>...and yeah...I really want to talk with you a bit, since I miss talking with you...hope we will be able to talk a bit soon.
