Just wanted to confirm that my Nimpik name is Romrapoan (added to my sig) and my Life pillar story was the same as Dottoe's.

Dalek, not to say that it isnt useful, but Green has already posted half of them. And we are all following the tweets on Twitter.

I know that I asked you to post the tweets, but that was only your tweets as you have a closed feed.

So I dub that post a trout. Don't sweat it though Smile Keep up the good work Smile

My life story

Sorry for the delay, I was buying my wedding dress. Here is my life story:

"You are lost at sea. In the distance, to the right, you see a circle of massive stones rising from the water. To the left is another ship that appears empty. Which do you sail to?"

I chose the rocks.

"You move slowly to the rocks. You hear a crash and the boat to the left sinks into the ocean.
important
As you get closer to the circle of rocks, you see that each of the stones has symbols carved harshly into them, one per stone. You try to read them. You ship sails around the stones. Three stones, larger than the circle, rise out of the water inside the circle. In the center of the triangle is another stone. The triangle has one symbol on each, different from the circle. These are gentle and graceful. The center stone has another different symbol, written over and over again.

Will you read the center stone?"

Yes

"As you approach closer, the repeated symbol on the stone becomes clearer the closer to get. Do you listen to what the symbol tells you it means or do you resist?"

I listen.

"The symbol, repeated over and over again, means Clarity. Everything in the world is understandable; you even remember the way back home. Yet you do not want to be away from the understanding the stone seems to give you.
careful, you could fail here
Do you stay with the stone or do you leave it?"

I stay.

"The stone begins to hum. Your head begins to hurt, and you close your eyes against the pain. When the sound and the pain reaches an unbearable level, it stops. You open your eyes. You are on top of the Clarity stone. Everything is even more clear, and you comprehend everything. In the distance, you can see the silhouette of a large landmass. You also see a ship you hadn't noticed before, sailing to the circle of stones.

It comes too quickly and crash against the many stones. The ship and its crew sink into the ocean.

You see, if you come too quickly to enlightenment, you will dash your ship, so to speak. It will not be true.

You have earned your life pillar. Ask for your next task."

My apologies. When I scrolled back I didn't see the post that had the tweets in it.

I've noticed that people get really picky about even the occasional repeat around here... is it just a big Unfiction forum no-no? I've never seen it be a big deal anywhere else.

It's just because it is quite easy to lose key information in a thread like this, so we would like to point it out each time it happens so the thread isn't littered with it.
Just helps with organisation Smile

And thank you Romnetora for that Smile

More Nimpik

This is what Ore gave us tonight.

feel free to ask me any questions you have, and I'll try my best to explain (I still feel very confused about this language)


nor = to give
nordi = gives (he/she/it)
nori = give (I)
normi = give (you sing.)
norin = give (we, you pl.)

i = aj (verb -i)
you sing. = haj (verb -mi)
i/he/she = oj/tusaj/tasaj (verb -di)
you/we = phaj/paj (verb sing. + -n)

free = holy open = pajodu

holy = pa- or -ti

opaarin = alone
aramor = step/stair

aj dagei joneoj haji nagaik = i have heard your call

naga = to call
dage = to have

Starting the conversation with The Fourth

So we were stuck for a few days, because the Fourth summoned me to talk to him. To do so, we needed to learn Nimpik. So Ore taught us for days.

According to Ore, all I needed was the first verse of The Song, and that would start this convo.

So I messaged them:

Quote:
Dumio ek akimara
Paj norin paji paaraet pajodu!

[O greatest Spectrum | We give our lives free!]


And the Fourth replied:

Quote:
Ąɉ ƌăġëí ɉȯɳēőɉ ɧǟɉȋ ɳǡǵǎǐķ.

[I have heard your call.]


In []'s, the translation.

Note: there was no subject line, unlike the other Church emails.

Now I have to message The Fourth back with the 2nd, 3rd and 4th verses, all in the same message. After The Fourth replies, I must send the 5th.

We still need more words for that task, but Ore said Will will give us them.

Now we wait.

We're making progress hurrah!
Also it seems Will is fine except that he's a little confused and we are apparently getting a video.

Conjugating verbs in Nimpik

Based on what Ore taught us last night, I prepared this table with an example of how to conjugate verbs for all the pronouns.

We don't know how to say "they" yet, but we know that p- makes a plural pronoun, and -n added to the singular verb (i.e. a verb for singular pronouns) makes a plural verb (i.e. a verb for plural pronouns). We don't know if "they" will follow the same logic, and make "ptusaj" (they, masculine), "ptasaj" (they, feminine), and "poj" (they, neutral), or if we'll have one single word for all three of them. No matter which, we know how to conjugate verbs for "they," because we know how to conjugate them for he/she/it.

Also, since Ore gave us the word "tasgar" (tas+gar/small), which means "girl," I think we can guess with nearly 90% certainty that:

tastar = woman (tasaj = she / tar = big)
tusgar = boy (tusaj = he / gar = small)
tustar = man (tusaj = he / tar = big)

tasgaret = girls (-et = plural)
tastaret = women
tusgaret = boys
tustaret = men

Now on to verb conjugation:




*Nimpik teacher MODE: OFF* :P

Will's video from Old Smokey

This is the video Will made at Old Smokey.



YouTube: Link


His notes for this video are as follows:

"7/29/11, trip to Old Smokey turns weird. I don't remember anything after she turns, until about 11 PM, when I found myself crouched in the same position I was to take this video.

Weird stuff happened to the video, but it was like that on my camera when I checked it this morning."


According to Ore, the girl we see on the video is Life, the blue pillar.
