Where did I say he was criticizing other members' "Japanese"? Read his post.

Me study Japanese? LMAO なめた事ぬかしてんじゃねえよ, このボケッ！！

Okay... Against my better judgment, I tried to do it on my own using Jim Breen's and my paltry collection of verb guides. I know this is going to be wrong. Again, I would be more than delighted to pay someone more qualified to do it, but at this point, I'm a little scared of what that might cost, if it's by-the-character.

Any and all suggestions/comments/cries of outrage are begged for. Also, I have no idea how spacing is supposed to work in Japanese.

6:30現在で、特別な緊急事態は宣言されました。

東京の感染症の急速な広がりは極度な力の使用を周囲の 地域のそれ以上の伝染を防ぐ要しました。

およそ24時に、防衛省は汚染の脅威を中和し広まった爆� �� 作戦 を始めます 。

(Here's where I'm certain I epic-failed.) 関東地方の残りの生存者が すぐに関西の兵庫県の 指名な災害救助センター に 避難しなければ行けません 。

I'm officially terrified and exhausted. Thank you to Raiha, for your help and encouragement. I used a lot of what you gave me.

Edit: Hurrr, for some reason, my kanji isn't posting right... That little ??? blurb is supposed to be ばくげき. Don't know why it won't display... unless it's a censored word. I suppose that is a bit of a hot button.

But now that I know, what's a fair price for translation of a paragraph? This is all non-profit, just-for-fun sorta stuff, so, I can't afford much, but I'd be more than happy to pay someone a reasonable sum (via Paypal) for their troubles.

There isn't a set rule. The longer and more difficult the request the more bickering you are going to get. It's nature.

I'm so confused with all the bickering so I'm exiting it.

HOWEVER.

I'm feeling bad for the OP to have to put up with it, so when I get home tonight, if there still isn't a suitable translation, I might have time to sit down with my girlfriend and we'll go through it and give you something nice. I wanna play that mod! I take it it's for PC? I don't really feel like loading up BootCamp (Mac user), but I will if I get to kill zombies in Tokyo!

If only my video card could handle L4D I would join you, sounds great ^_^

Wow, thank you so much! Yes, it is for PC, and they've been working on it for some time now, but the developers have been good about releasing progress screens (and they look incredible).

Left4Dead Mods has been covering it pretty extensively.

Thanks again!

That looks amazing!!!

My only complaint is that the hotel wsas built near Kobe, which is nowhere near Tokyo. Maybe I'm misreading it. Actually, why am I complaining? I don't care, I just wanna play it! It looks incredible!!

[MagicCakeLady]

Yeeeeah, I was a little skeptical about making that trip on foot, too, but the overall quality of the campaign is more than enough for me to not care.

Raiha, I'll correct your translation for you
