hmmm Well I'm new here, but I just had a thought. The line of cups on the right of the logo fits the main melody perfectly. But if you listen a tad bit closer, theres a melody behind it, that begins in a lower octave right after the first 3 notes. This melody fits the left line perfectly. Now when one looks at which cups have slusho in them, we can find out which notes they are. for the background melody, the note is C. For the Main melodyy, CGG.

So therfore we have CCGG.


Any ideas?

Slusho Letters
Japanese Letters

I know that I heared someone say that the letters at the bottom of the page had been translated already, but I REALLY don;t think that is authentic Japanese writing. Everytime I pull up a Japanese alphabet and try to compare the characters, the one's on the Slusho website just seem like dinky cartoon charaters.

I really thing that the "Characters" dedicated to each individual section of the website desipher something more...What, I'm not sure.

Just an idea.

That's bugging me too.

When slusho was first found, someone came in early and provided a translation - see earlier slusho pages on forum - and noted that for flavors, and I think another one the english translation was completely something else. I wasn't paying close attention so forgot what the whole of it is. I think the flavors had said something about business opportunities.

Well since the slusho site update, the jp stuff changed, and nobody has come in and provided a current translation on what it says now and what the changes were about. Another one is that the main page jp links read one way but as you click pages, the same link spots have totally different ones on them.

We need an update on the translations....

Slusho! Letters...


Out of the 9 I found this:

6 ? da ke zi(or ji) ? ? ? na i

The others I can't find (I'm just referencing a Japanese map of the alphabet).

"nothing to see here" as the saying goes. Japanese has 3 distinct written languages that are all used at once, Hiragana, Katakana, and the Chinese borrowed Kanji. The translation somebody gave you is correct. Kanji is used in combination with hiragana and katakana. There are 2 kanji's, and the rest is hiragana. I know the "dake" means only and the end "nai" means can't, so I assume the translation is correct in "you can't drink just six."

I have the translations, withthe link to the post here, on the Slusho page of my site.

Also, the Japanese on the sub-pages do match the Japanese on the main page, though the links are in a different order than they are on the main page. That's one of the things that definitely changed when the site updated.

I am trying to stay clear of slusho! anagrams as I believe he came up with that name long ago. Also, it's too close to Slushee, but the story and the animals I think are the best clues on the site.

The cups definitely do not match the main melody in any way.

The theme, again, is ECEGGFGAF (I mistyped the theme a few posts ago)

杯pai=Cup
足り tari= Suffice

on an interesting note though you can translate 杯 into "hai" which means "yes" and 足 into "ashi" which can mean "evil" although the actual kanji/kana would look different.
(ashi can also mean leg and then kanji is the same)

TinaG222's intermission style pms rant freak out post

WTF sam hell does zoom mean in Japanese?

And HTF do children open their fun?

Who says that?

I'm groping here. Need a bone with meat on it.

EDIT:

On the main page there is slusho zoom. Kinda whacked. On the downloads page, when you click any graphic to download, no matter the size you get this here:

1. right click and blah blah
2. select this folder and blah blah
3. more accurate instructions on how to download stuff
4. Slusho! zoom!

WTF is that, I'm having a Lewis Black moment here.

Zoom??? That just screams out to me that it's on the instructions page, so this is instructions, but zooming in produces NOTHING.

What in the hell does this mean? What is it that's not clicking here. Zoom how? Zoom what? Where?

ARRRGGGG!!!

You think this guy is making this up, or is slusho real in japan?

He also changed his pic to slusho T (have we seen this anywhere yet?) and changed his song to Timbaland's How I Are or w/e it's called.

In Japanese kyuujoushou means sudden rise/steep climb/zoom I don't know if that really helps much though as substitute words/meanings

EDIT* also Slusho is NOT real in Japan
