@GM: You need to get out more. Festivals and such.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-03-17T12:20:31-04:00
Actually GM, I meant in terms of actually stopping by and picking you and Cha up. Hope you don't mind the 80's music that will be blasting from my stereo.
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T12:21:58-04:00
It still amazes me that someone could go through all of the work of making a video and uploading it to YouTube and then forget to tell anyone about it by sending a tweet.
@Geist: I would get out more...but festival season isn't for another 3-ish months. And most of my friends work nights, while I work days. Or they are in construction and too tired from the hard day of work to want to go do something. Plus, going out alone to those things is kind of boring.
And as long as it isn't Rap/Hip-Hop music I'm fine with that. I will listen to anything EXCEPT Rap/Hip-Hop.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-03-17T12:29:04-04:00
@GM: Thank you for letting me know what to torture you with. Now you'll have to share any french fries with me or have your ear drums bleeding.
Btw, if anybody anywhere in the world knows Automation jobs for upcoming summer, I would really much like to know about them. I'm about to graduate around 30.4.2015, and right now it looks like I'll be unemployed in the worst case, so if you have any hints of employment on this field, let me know.Thank you in advance
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T12:37:37-04:00
... and as soon as I post my rescue tweet, they finally get around to it!
@Geist: It's not just gravy. It's also cheese curds. Perfectly melted cheese curds, with delicious gravy, topping beautiful golden brown french fries. Nothing beats that.

Morning All; I've been following the conversations in fits and starts between other paperwork and surfing ...
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T12:40:12-04:00
So... do we have tweets for non tweeted videos now?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-03-17T12:40:30-04:00
@GM: That is what ketchup is for. Or just plain with a little salt. Mmmmmmmmm.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T12:41:24-04:00
You can see what's the problem with a specific video if it is light red and you mouse over.
CB-I know. If I took the time to make a video, I would triple check to make sure i followed all the rules! But glad they finally tweeted it. I'm going to be going through all the non-qualifiers today and start tweeting them about requirements. I'll make sure you haven't already done so.
And this week I am going to start re-tweeting some corps members vids, like PoT just now. If it's easier for both of you, CB and GC - you can block @kittencorps from your scraper, as I won't be tweeting any original videos.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T12:47:27-04:00
It does not make any difference for me Creeper, as my scripts works of Dr. P. spreadsheet
@Creeper: Because the things that don't pay are usually more entertaining.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T12:50:48-04:00
Yeah I know what you mean, Creeper. It may not actually be easier, but it is fun to tinker around and write tools to translate country names into flags :-)
@Creeper, don't worry. My script looks at the actual YouTube URL and keeps duplicates from showing up. Tweet away.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T12:55:07-04:00
It is also why I would not like to do this kind of things for money. I do not want deadlines to spoil my fun or pesky clients to change things around when I know what I want and how I want to do it.
Work is different... there I am the one being pesky and chasing people around *g*.
Deadlines are a pain in the ass....especially when you get distracted by people constantly asking you questions, throwing stuff at you with less than half explained instructions.
hahaha.....Half the backyard has sun, Scrunchie is laying in a spot, kittykitty walks right up to him and makes him move. Scrunchie gets up and moves, kittykitty takes over spot and rolls around. ...There is an entire yard of sun!
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:23:49-04:00
Creeper you may like to hear that there are parties at Long Island and Albany too now.
@GCoD: I know what you mean...the other day(Thursday to be exact since I didn't leave the house Friday), there was beautiful weather. And the weather stayed nice until Sunday, when it snowed. And now we are cold weather. Stupid teasing me with nice weather, and even nicer views. Now back to people wearing bulky, warm clothing...and not much eye candy. T.T
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:25:54-04:00
Erm... Dr. P. ... it was you who chose the obnoxious green....
Ah, well we could ask them to correct it, but that would be kind of fastidious since all they did was pluralize it. It should still count, we'll have to work around it. TO THE LIST!
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:36:31-04:00
Added now...
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T13:36:38-04:00
I don't see the green background any more. It seems to be alternating white and pale blue. There are some with red background, but I can't seem to find a key that explains exactly what a red background means.
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T13:39:29-04:00
@Gen. C, it should be in my list. What script are you using?
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:41:03-04:00
It's a in the title tag and should show once you do a mouseover, CB. There never was a green background.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:41:59-04:00
CB, it is not on your list, I just checked... I get your YTids from http://www.kittencorps.com/cgi-bin/YtIDs.php and check it against my list which in turn is derived from Dr. P. spreadsheet.
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T13:43:32-04:00
Yeah, I'm trying to see why it isn't on my list. ...

Should be there now though. I translated it manually.

There are 14 other shortened links. I'll normalize them too.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:54:49-04:00
Yep, it is in my list as well with 17 likes.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-03-17T13:57:56-04:00
14? Wow... if those are not in the spreadsheet yet, Dr. P and Creeper have cut there work out for today...
Juha-Pekka Ahonen 2015-03-17T14:01:23-04:00
Saw some Aurora Borealis gonna go see them to lake near by
yes... (still here! getting ready) ...the spammy one is a bit annoying, but not sure there's anything we can do about it. They're enthusiastic and want to win. Probably asked all their friend to re-tweet, etc. If it was one account doing it, I could probably ask them to hold back a little. But if they're just sending it rhoguh the twitters, we can't really tell them to stop.
Good job man! You and GC are working hard on this, and kicking ass. I certainly hope I'm of help. Our lists seem to coincide with each other almost perfectly! No videos were missed between us, I just choose to leave some of the more vague locations as blank so that they were more blatantly obvious.
A lot of people haven't been in since the end of the project...do they not love us anymore?
To the fallen:
Blondie
BaKhan
Any others I may have missed(those are the only two that come to mind right now).
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-03-17T14:23:54-04:00
Way back when -- we discussed the pricing of the game production ... who was it that was posting their opinion on the costs involved, and cold that maybe be linked to again?
Mike Kabala 2015-03-17T14:24:48-04:00
Yeah, the one that says Myrtle Beach, SC is actually "somewhere along the Carolina beaches ..." I just picked the most likely location.
I'm surprised too Creeper, I thought for sure she'd pop back in! And it was just them for most of it, they've cooled down on it though. We can handle it. If it comes close in that area we can use it as a deciding factor in case of a tie somehow. They aren't anywhere near close to East Side Games though in likes.
We've discovered her secret! Oh no, don't you realize what this means?! If we're playing by movies rules then we're screwed.... then again our theory that F was actually Elan never panned out, now it's just [F is probably POZ].
Blondie is Bella? Who is Bella? I'm missing something here! I get distracted by other people when not at work...when at work I can chat with you fine folk...most of the time.
Bella is a member of the EK team, she works on the social media aspect of it.... or was it advertising? I don't remember, I'm so bad with names that I'm forgetting her title as it were.
CB - I'll look.
@GM: You need to get out more. Festivals and such.
Actually GM, I meant in terms of actually stopping by and picking you and Cha up. Hope you don't mind the 80's music that will be blasting from my stereo.

@Geist: I can share the French fries....but you will *raises plastic spork* NEVER TAKE MY POUTINE!
I got tired of waiting, so I tweeted myself. EK favorited my tweet, so I guess that's acceptable.
The gravy you guys put on perfectly good fried potatoes? You can keep that. I will be taking your butter tart though.
Hi Kittens!
Just finished with some improvements for https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23263053/EK/kittenconsul.html
*waves at GC*
DDD FTW! He found it! (i got distracted)
Btw, if anybody anywhere in the world knows Automation jobs for upcoming summer, I would really much like to know about them.

excellent.
why is it so much easier for me to do these things than work on my own business?
@Creeper: Because the things that don't pay are usually more entertaining.
Yeah I know what you mean, Creeper. It may not actually be easier, but it is fun to tinker around and write tools to translate country names into flags :-)
GM and GC- +1000000....
GM GC CB GCoD.... so many similarities...
@Creeper, don't worry. My script looks at the actual YouTube URL and keeps duplicates from showing up. Tweet away.
It is also why I would not like to do this kind of things for money. I do not want deadlines to spoil my fun or pesky clients to change things around when I know what I want and how I want to do it.
Work is different... there I am the one being pesky and chasing people around *g*.
oooh, yeah... deadlines. And i'm critical of my own stuff. and invoices...bleh.
Deadlines are a pain in the ass....especially when you get distracted by people constantly asking you questions, throwing stuff at you with less than half explained instructions.
Well what's new y'all?
Not much Potatten.
Spring arrived yesterday, it was sunny, we hit almost 80 degrees F -- and today it is back to 50 and gray. Blech.
GCoD- I hate those teaser days where you get all happy and excited about the weather, then it immediately drops back down.
Now that I have my kittenconsul page conform to valid HTML5 I'll call it a day and let you people take care for the rest.
hahaha.....Half the backyard has sun, Scrunchie is laying in a spot, kittykitty walks right up to him and makes him move. Scrunchie gets up and moves, kittykitty takes over spot and rolls around. ...There is an entire yard of sun!
Creeper you may like to hear that there are parties at Long Island and Albany too now.
Looks like we have some new additions for me to add to the sheet later. All of mine are listed as qualifying by obnoxious Green Yes' and Red Nos.
@GCoD: I know what you mean...the other day(Thursday to be exact since I didn't leave the house Friday), there was beautiful weather. And the weather stayed nice until Sunday, when it snowed. And now we are cold weather. Stupid teasing me with nice weather, and even nicer views. Now back to people wearing bulky, warm clothing...and not much eye candy. T.T
Erm... Dr. P. ... it was you who chose the obnoxious green....
I can make it a different color, but the point was : [STICKOUT!!!] It's just a conditional column setting: If=Yes:Green, If=No:Red
albany too far, long island...possssibly- still too far. But there's one in NYC! Just hope they get enough likes!
That being said - my video still would have been more awesome. But I'm glad an nyc group got together.
There is a NYC video? mhm I do not have it on my list
If I had time I would put together a video! Me and Cha! have talked about it, but there isn't much convo happening... :( Hope she's alright.
https://twitter.com/CBarrows/status/577809869031530496 Did I forget to update it to my list last night GC?
Ah I see.. it isn't in CB's list either, which I do crosschek
Maybe because the hashtag is wrong: "#kittenconsuls"
Ah, well we could ask them to correct it, but that would be kind of fastidious since all they did was pluralize it. It should still count, we'll have to work around it. TO THE LIST!
Added now...

Used #kittenconsuls instead of #kittenconsul (It should still count because it would be silly if it didn't)
@CB.. they used the hastag "#kittenconsuls" with an s at the end.
I see the problem ... It's a damn bit.ly link!
Oh yes that too... mhm No good way to check this out... BTW, from which tag do you extract the video length from the YT-page?
Ah, I didn't even notice that until I saw it.... I can give you a normalized link... https://www.youtube.com/watch…

CB you have an entry in Malibu, CA that's in Virginia Beach, VA
Glad to see PoT got some more likes. We need to make sure LZ stays near top, too! I'm going to tweet Lz's either later today or tomorrow.
LZ's is still up there. If that one keeps spamming we're going to have to do something though.
I gotta run to store for a bit. Will come back and really focus on this spreadsheet and updates. Bye kittens! Don't drink too much green beer.
OK, there are only five left and they're not video links, so we should be good.
The michiana, indiana entry is in Columbus, NE
Sorry not Columbus, NE; South Bend, Indiana.
Never can let me take a break, can you @Potatten? ;-) Moved to Virginia Beach.
TTYL Creeper!
lol sorry, I guess it's not too important given that it's probably within the general area.
... and moved to South Bend.
Eating yogurt now. I've earned it.
yes... (still here! getting ready) ...the spammy one is a bit annoying, but not sure there's anything we can do about it. They're enthusiastic and want to win. Probably asked all their friend to re-tweet, etc. If it was one account doing it, I could probably ask them to hold back a little. But if they're just sending it rhoguh the twitters, we can't really tell them to stop.
I'm really surprised blondie hasn't stopped in since this update!
I think the EK team was anticipating some spammers. That's why they got KC involved.
Good job man! You and GC are working hard on this, and kicking ass. I certainly hope I'm of help. Our lists seem to coincide with each other almost perfectly! No videos were missed between us, I just choose to leave some of the more vague locations as blank so that they were more blatantly obvious.
The Corps are the EK teams special forces, we see, and know, all...at least all that's been shared with us.
I still say Blondie was one of the EK team in disguise .... what better way to secretly see what we are doing?
*looks in mirror* today is a day for a baseball hat. indeed. Yes.
A lot of people haven't been in since the end of the project...do they not love us anymore?

Blondie...Bella....Hmmm....we're on to you, bella!!
@Creeper, I just had the same thought! .......... BOOM!
@CB - YUP! they both have the spunky persona!
We've discovered her secret! Oh no, don't you realize what this means?! If we're playing by movies rules then we're screwed.... then again our theory that F was actually Elan never panned out, now it's just [F is probably POZ].
Blondie is Bella? Who is Bella? I'm missing something here! I get distracted by other people when not at work...when at work I can chat with you fine folk...most of the time.
ok..now store. i look like a badass today. and i kinda like it. peace.
@GM, Bella is EK's social media person.
Well, Blondie was in LA -- and so is Elan and Shane ... and as far as I can tell, Shane never comments ...so maybe Blondie was Shane?
Bella is a member of the EK team, she works on the social media aspect of it.... or was it advertising? I don't remember, I'm so bad with names that I'm forgetting her title as it were.
