Hey, its seem you are part of the crew

Hello, Ron! I’m Amy from Japan. 

I’ve been searching English translated “Killer tune- Tokyo incidents ”, and I finally found your translation in here. I’m a college student and I’m going  to make a short video like promotion video with my favorite song in a class.  I’m wondering if I could use your translation... It’s only use in my assignment. I look forward to your reply.

(I’m sorry to bother you but I couldn’t find the rule regarding using lyrics from JPA(;_;)

Happy Birthday my friend I hope you had a great day of celebration!!

I do think of you often... I hope all is well...stay in touch. Luv ya

Glissa here~~

HHhhuuuuggggsss!!! My dear friend, how have you been? It’s been way to long. Please contact me. 

Nice to meet you!

Good morning~~

😘😊It’s been a long time. I hope that you are doing well. What have you been up to? How’s your family and Mia ? We need to catch up~email me!!! I’ve miss you so much!!! I see you are pretty active here.

Yo -_- how are you? It's been too long, I think. If you check my wall, you'll see why. Anyways, I've missed you! I'd love to hear how things have been for you in my absence.

This format is new to me, but it certainly is growing on me. As I type this, I have three cards, but for as long as I live, I will never sell my Kamijo card. It's too precious to me.

Anyways, toodlepip for now! ;D

Hey grandpa weebl! It's been quite a while huh? I don't even remember what I last posted on your wall... Oh well...

く(￣へ￣) I gotta pay my respects. XD Meh... My brain...

I keep reminding myself that I have to watch certain anime but end up watching something else... That's what I did for AoT XD I watched the first episode and then went off track. I finished watching though :P Gotta admit, the story was really good but... I can't be a huge fan of it as other people. And then I'm watching Sakamoto which I told myself I would watch after watching some other anime...

Yeah I found out ^^ But I'll leave it there in my bio just for the heck of it... For the monopoly, you don't have to go on every day right? Or no? Eh... I'm not smart enough for that place yet so I'll keep distance from that place for now. 

Hey ❤️, 

Hope all good with you!!! 😊 

Hi. I know it's been 3 months now, but I've been so busy. I got a job, and I've done a lot of overtime xD I bought a house and now I have to make that money back. I hope you are doing well :) Now I really lost track of what we were talking about O_O

Haha, it looked like we were speaking in an alien language xDDD

Yeah, all people think about is money :P Oh, I know you can get in ;) I can totally see you getting along with your patients :D

Haha. Yet, we are still reproducing xD

I think I was just...

lol, that's what makes them nerds xD Oh, that's too bad :|

Oh, you got me xDDD I knew it was a pun... I think :P Haha, they weren't listening to the lyrics :P

Yep :3

Donald Trump won, huh? 

This world has just dug its own grave... all thanks to a bunch of bigoted, racist white voters blinded by chauvinistic pride and arrogance. Of course.  

[]

Ayo Ron, sorry about my late reply. Lot of shiz has been happening. So, lets restart, huh?

What have you been up to? Catch me up on your life, son.

Yeah, I know; you're normally very calm. But I guess even the calmest of people snap sometime. What do you plan on doing now? 

Dude... I heard what happened yesterday. Sorry to hear about it, man. How are you feeling now?

IVE GOT ONE. IVE FREAKING GOT ONE!!!!! GIRLS GENERATION IS YOURS!

Aha they are rare ( • ̀ω•́  )✧ Yeah just missed them by 3 now (๑-﹏-๑). Maybe Royz is also rare I hardly ever see them (╥﹏╥)

I have now near 12K jpops I should have enough. But I really hardly see them. In my over 900 rounds I think I saw them just 3 or 4 times. (๑-﹏-๑)

If I land on them I'll give them to you thou I am not sure if I would have enough jpops to buy them XD ( • ̀ω•́ )✧

Woah just one card to have all. Early congratulations~ (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) 

Found them more faster than I thought~ ^^ XD Thanks   

Ofc we can trade~ (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) Is it okay for Stereopony, Konomi Suzuki, GD&TOP and MORRIGAN? ⁽⁽ ◟(∗ ˊωˋ ∗)◞ ⁾⁾

Oh of course I have I.M , Yesung, JJCC and Weather Girls (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

Thanks for Da-iCE (๑•ᴗ•๑)♡ Nice way to start my day (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

I saw THREE cards I haven't owned in one round and I missed all of them. And then I saw another two new cards on the next round AND missed both of them AGAIN. Of course I did. 

I'm going to scream to this song now. And not just because I hate doing the laundry and dishes.

Hold up... I noticed only 10% of the amount you pay in taxes actually goes towards the pot.

That renders jackpot spaces pretty much obsolete, doesn't it? Even chance spaces have a bigger payout the vast majority of the time. Which makes no sense at all.

Yep. My highest jackpot was like 400 jpops. Id rather not land on tax at all to be honest but it happens on every other board haha

If you're poor, tax doesn't hurt as much   

I used to have 1.4+ million jpops. ONE tax space took out 45,000+ jpops in one go. I landed on TWO. To add insult to injury, a guy hit the jackpot soon after and got the 90,000 jpops or so I lost. My soul died...

Oh wow... that is awful

[]

*Lands on jail for the umpteenth time*

Me: *deadpan* Dice, you're a d**k. 

Wow... I got AOA, Aoi (Ayabie), Jin (SCREW), Phantasmagoria and NEGA pretty quickly.

There isn't many cards left that I haven't gotten at least one of. Looks like my mission of getting every single card in the game is almost complete.

[]

[]

Good to know. Doesn't change a thing though. Personal autonomy should always be respected. xP

Just checking whether you really are stalking me. Hypothesis well and truly confirmed. 

[]

Haha I would love being able to do such epic parkour :3 But unfortunately it's not as epic irl XD

I'd like to make games, actually I would just love doing the art XD But I know nothing about programming >.< I sort of understand what my dad does when he programs keypads to control certain systems/lights, but that's not quite as complicated XD Yeah, I'm sure as soon as you get the basics you'll learn quickly. Like learning an instrument, the more you learn the more you start to see the patterns and stuff :3 Yeah :D I love the idea of my art traveling the world though :D One day, hopefully :P Hahaha I have felt that way before XD Haha I see :P There are a few Afrikaans words that sound funny, so I like using them XD But a lot of them don't have a satisfying English alternative >.< 

Hahaha you get some funky colours in them :3 Mine is one of the more common morphs :D Haha I experienced real shock for half a second and you want to watch for your own entertainment?? :P 

Awesome :3 It is quite fun XD Though I have never heard most of the artists of the cards I own XD I recognize some names and then I'm like "You're gonna make me some cash  " Mostly I'm right XD I have, but I never use it XD What about Whatsapp? :3

And do you know when the forums will be active again? I miss the games XD 

Yeah... it's unfortunate. But I still give people a lot of respect points for pulling off the art of parkour. It's still pretty awesome to do, not to mention really efficient :3

Hahahah art direction is definitely important in a video game! I mean, it's the reason why I loved Xenoblade Chronicles so much   Ah, that's a different kind of programming but still very nifty. Programming is something that becomes a lot easier as you practice ^^ Hahah well like I said~ art is universal. You could do just about anything and there's always some people who will appreciate it. Abstract art is a thing, after all   LOL there's always something really funny about cussing in a different language XD

Funky colors you say? I'd love to see a photo of your gecko :3 Lol I'm just kidding~ my mind just had this cartoon playing and it really makes me laugh when they overreact and then realize that they're okay. I just love that sudden mood whiplash XD

LOL that's why I started buying so many cards because they will start making money for me hehe   But yeah, thanks to his game I found about new artists. Can't go wrong with that :3 Ah, I haven't used Whatsapp for awhile now. I could accommodate though ^^

The forums is actually one of the first things we're working on now. It shouldn't be too long before it's ready   

Yeah it takes skill :3 and the complete lack of fear XD I would love doing it with a dog, it always looks so epic :3 Yesterday I raced with our one dog- that already was epic :D 

It is :3 I always look at the art styles when I play, since I'm an artist XD Yeah, I'm not sure what types he does since he mostly programs on-site :3 I completely agree with that :P In my opinion it's a lot more admirable to create your own style than moulding your style around what's popular :P That's why I love music to be unique and different :3 There is XD

Yeah you get them in orange and black :3 But there are lots of different morphs :D I would like to show you, but with him being nocturnal it's difficult to have a photoshoot XD Haha I know :P I can see it as well XD

Haha that's exactly what I'm doing XD Oh yeah, I haven't looked into any of them yet. Though I'm not a fan of pop :P But I'm keeping my Babymetal card XD Okay, cool :3

Good :3 Although that's probably the only thing left to get up and running? :D I love the new colour scheme btw :3

Mine looks like this: (He's called Ruki btw XD) 

The black ones look really cool :3

And these look like dragons :D

These are the morphs :3

Now that would be epic. I could easily see it happen in a Naruto episode (think Akamaru and Kiba doing ninja parkour together). I'd love to see someone pull that off in front of my eyes   

Hahah that makes complete sense to me! Video games is equal parts gaming and art :3 Man, if I could learn how to program robots someday, that would be so awesome x3 It really appeals to my nerdy side XD Lol the thing is, if something becomes popular then it will lose value as people will start taking it for granted. So it's always great to be original with art because originality is what makes it so great in the first place   We think alike, my friend. I always love music that sounds unique   

Well I just took a look at the pictures you posted and it really does look funky and vivid   If Ruki was a gecko, he would look like that. I'm pretty sure he has dyed his hair every possible color there is XD 

LOL I know~ I gather you like metal from the forums games. I do too   But yeah, I have a BABYMETAL card as well~ two in fact XD 

Well there's also the chatroom which we hope should be available soon :3 And same! Blue is my favorite color after all   

Yeah :D There probably are places where you can watch it live XD

Yep, without cool art the game isn't complete :3 It would :D Though after playing SOMA I don't feel so good about robots XD Yeah, that is true >.< I also hate it to make the same work twice; it feels like I'm a factory >.< And what I would like about an artwork is the fact that it's the only one of its kind :3 Hahaha :3 especially the vocalist, I love when they have a voice that kind of takes you by surprise XD 

They are so... different XD I think it's because I've never been that interested in reptiles as pets so it seems alien XD Haha I would believe that XD 

Yep :3 I saw you like a variety of genres XD All my favorites are metal :3 Hahaha I'd like a Maximum the Hormone one, but I haven't seen one yet XD 

Oh cool, how does that work? :D Hahaha I like the dark colours :P But red is my favorite :3 

*listens to the song* OHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOHHHH~HOOOOOOOHHHHH~ OOOOOHHHHHHH~OOOHHHHHOOOOOOHHHHHH!!!!!!! 

Epic. It's surprisingly cathartic too. I could do this all day. But then again, since when is Jari not extremely hammy in their songs? 

Blessed be! Talk about a stroke of good fortune!   I just completed, all within 10 rounds (italics indicate cards I just obtained):

'2NE1' set: 2NE1, CL, Dara, Park Bom and Minzy

'Female Jrock' set: Mary's Blood, Gacharic Spin, SCANDAL, Stereopony, ReaL, Silent Siren, LoVendoR, exist trace, BAND-MAID, BABYMETAL, Ganglion, Gallows, Destrose, Danger Gang, DOLL$BOX and finally, after missing you so many times, BRIDEAR. 

Almost completed 'Big Bang' set: Big Bang, T.O.P, GD and TOP, Taeyang, GD x Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung. Only missing G-Dragon now.

Perseverance wins the day! How do you like that, game?

I already did.

OH YOU SUCK, GAME! I was about to complete my female Jrock set with BRIDEAR but NOOOOOOOO, I have to land one away and on the jail space. Awesome. Just awesome. 

༼ノಠل͟ಠ༽ノ ︵ ┻━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┻

I'm so irritated that I'm just gonna let my gifs do all the talking

The dice fakes out on me, dude. It's like it has a mind of it's own :/

LOLcopter XD

Ahaa you want all of them~ good luck than oh and congrats for making it pass 1000~ (≧∇≦)

Me too, the most tax I had was around 1K. 

You too? Nice, thou you started some years earlier (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

A JJ Lin card is valued at 20k Jpops? Never saw that coming... what's really ironic is that the English translation of the title of one of his songs is... 

"It's Not Fashionable To Spend Money"

Don't believe me? Here's the song: 

Edit #1: And as my luck would have it, I missed RoNoCro by one again... for the 8th time   

Edit #2: Finally reached the 1,000 card mark! There's still so many cards I've yet to collect...

Oh it would not be a problem to trade with a card that I have just 1 time if I am not a fan~ Kazuki is just so cute~   

The game doesn't like you XD thou today I missed NCT 127 6 times! Is that possible?   

HAhahahaha in my town we had just one to choose XD so it is Taekwondo. Jet Li is cool~   

OH COME ON! I just landed on a Kalafina card right after I got one by trade... this game is playing tricks on me   

It seems that I either don't get one or I suddenly start getting heaps of them...

Hahahh I would transfer you Kazuki too but I have just 1 right now~ (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

I see just in the game~

Uh-huh it was really amazing to watch. I got the wish to learn some martial arts XDXD oh Jet Li (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

Who knows? Maybe you are XD 

Glad to hear that hehe~  

I'm not that lucky tho XD I never landed on Kalafina cards haha   , I just bought the two (25k ugh) and traded the rest hihi (^_^)v ..If u have One OK Rock card (my connection sucks that I can't view your deck), then you can have it   

Pls wait as I send it to you, my connection really sucks haha! XD

Will do~ just take your time   

sent~ hihi, enjoy! :D

Thank you once again for the Kalafina card~ you've made my day!   

Wait... there's a BRIDEAR card? That's funny... I thought my female Jrock set was complete. I guess not then   

Edit #1: 

Me: I need a six! Come on, a six! *first die is a six* Ha-ha. Very funny, game.

I land all the time on Rui XD 

No problem~ hahah what luck you've got XD

All his movies are awesome. ٩(｡•ω•｡)و oh yeees that with the jacket in Karate Kid was so mega funny~ (≧∇≦)

Woah really you two are pretty similar and even he said that the thing with drinking too much water wasn't his best idea~ (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) 

Yo, weeby! what happened to your 2M jpops haha! XD 

btw, I have 8 Kalafina cards and I can give u one. high five~ (^_^)

*sees people getting Rui and Kazuki cards* 

Rui-ly? Rui-ly now?! Well SCREW YOU! 

[]

*Visits an AKB48 card* - Pay passage toll: 3,344 jpops

Card quote: 'I'm sorry, I love you.'

Me: Yeah. Right. I see how it is.

That sounds extremely magical XD 

I just don't know where to learn it   I guess my dad could teach me, but he's busy XD I don't know if his programming is the same though >.< Maybe the basics are the same :P And I need to start selling now XD That reminds me, I sold two this month :3 (to family, but that still counts XD) Yeah :3 Haha he is a real pig XD how do you feel about swearing anyway? :P

It is quite XD But at least we have hands, he has to pull it off with his mouth   But he's so colourful and shiny afterwards :3 Hahaha exactly that XD 

What have you been busy with? :3 Any other messenger is fine too :)

Hahaha I missed TK so often but I see him all the time (╥﹏╥)

Yaaay finally got a BASTARZ card XD (I also keep on missing them XD) I have transfered you Yoshiki~ (๑•ᴗ•๑)♡

OMG you MET him in real life~ How luckyyyyyyy (๑-﹏-๑) I am jelaous (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) Oh there can't be just one XD so some are Drunken Master, Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, Young Master, Twon Dragons and ofc Rush Hour. ʚ♡ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू❁) there are more thou right now can't remember more~ what about you? ٩(｡•ω•｡)و

Thanks~ hahahaha my brother is also vwry competitive XD he turns EVERYTHING into a competition~ even drinking water XD 

[]

You know I really wanted a LiSA card when I'm willing to pay over twice the market price for it... so whoever put it on sale I hope you enjoy my jpops   

That almost completes the 'Anime' set: I have Aimer, Nagi Yanagi, Aoi Eir, fripSide, Maon Kurosaki, Eri Kitamura, Girls Dead Monster, ClariS and now LiSA. Awesome! I still have Kalafina to go. And ofc, they'd always sell the card at ridiculous prices... -_-

Edit #1: What on Bionis happened with my jpops??? I went from 7k to 14k in a split second... not complaining though.

Edit #2: I keep getting crummy rolls and when I want a small roll for a change I keep getting big ones and missing all the cards     Never have I felt such a strong desire to cuss... I really, really am trying my best not to cuss right now. For the sake of JPA.

Haha if I fall deeply in love I would want to do that anyway XD It is! I would love being able to do that :D Yeah >.<

Yeah XD It always feels nice to understand what most see as gibberish :P That's epic :D I would love being able to make games XD Ahhh that one! XD I don't see it as that offensive though XD 

Haha kind of :P Well, if you shed your entire body every two weeks I imagine you wouldn't be too happy either XD Haha he doesn't really have teeth so it's pretty pointless :P When he bit me the first time I was like "HE'S ACTUALLY- oh... it doesn't even hurt." XD

Haha with my extraordinarily late reply it really defeats the purpose nicely XD Anyway, sorry for replying so late >.< but I've been doing a lot of other work for my mom and also for my art teacher, so I've been quite busy >.< But, I've quite missed talking to you, so I'd like it if you would add me on Kik (or any other messenger app, just let me know and I'll get it) yogscat

It's frustrating when you keep missing the ones you want and than see in the live feed that someone landed on them. (╥﹏╥) TK's card is terrible it's like it has got the magic field you can't land here never. 

Do you want to trade your BASTARZ card for Yoshiki? I keep landing on him XD 

Yep I have also seen all his movies, I think. (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) He is soo ... Hmmm a legend~ ٩(｡•ω•｡)و

Hahahhha the dance does look really cool~ ʚ♡ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

This game really wants me to spend my gold... I landed in the last 5 jail spaces   

I ain't succumbing to the temptation, game~ I want to have LOTS of gold, LOTS of Jpops (that are elsewhere atm) and LOTS of karma, and HUUUUGGGEEEEE numbers on my stat board. So suck it, TREBECK!   

Yeah totally some cards show up so often I've seen so many Jins from BTS XD and some are nowhere to be found. (╥﹏╥) and I keep missing TK whenever I see him~ 

Oh part Chinese how cool~ Jackie is lifeeeeee! Such an awesome person. Hoping I will land on his card XD yeah and his profile had a picture thou poor he didn't have so much fans which was very weird but okay. ٩(｡•ω•｡)و

Woah woah woah Jay is amaaaazing~ (ू•ᴗ•ू❁) I see the song will be in my head the whole day (๑•ᴗ•๑)♡

The number of cards that I know I've seen but haven't yet owned is running really low it seems~

Rummaging through the source code (view-source:http://www.jpopasia.com/game/)... so far I located how the dice roll is randomized and how the buttons, background and spaces are generated and my overall game stats, but I can't seem to find the code for generating artist spaces... maybe I'm looking in the wrong portion

[]

[]

Sooo... should I reply on my wall or on your wall? That is the question XD

Yeah, I can feel it... he really needed a break. Not to mention he also runs GoKpop as well... pretty much since this site was created back in '06, he's still the only one who did all the web changes. I figure if I could learn about it, I could take the reins whenever Toesan needs a break. The problem is that I've also got a lot on my plate as well :/

I get what you mean~ there are certain days where I prefer to have some quality 'me' time and not talk to anybody. And moving involves a little too much sacrifice for my liking :/

There are so many Christian artists that I haven't heard in a while now as I grew up with a lot of them and I struggle to keep up. I still listen to Switchfoot, Kutless, Fireflight, MercyMe and Anberlin at times. RED did release Of Beauty and Rage early last year and I thought that was a solid album, since I was a little disappointed in Release The Panic. About Skillet... their latest release really disappointed me. I get that they changed their sound slightly between every release but all of a sudden they became electronic :/ Compared to their Awake days, they were nowhere near as good. Of course, this might be an example of the 'Golden Age' fallacy.

I watching the video as I type, and I'm liking it. I'd like to see how ProtonJon reacts to these custom made levels as he plays through them (to the uninitiated, he used to play through a lot of ROM hacks and custom made levels given to him by his fans and his reactions are just funny to watch)

LOL you do that! I'm guessing he's your bias now? XD

[]

[]

They did fulfill my two criteria mentioned before... I bow down to them in utter respect. I'm completely blown away. But the Lv. 1 part I didn't see coming... I wouldn't suspect they did if I watched from the middle of the video because Sora was shredding them in his Final Form, and he's got max HP for Critical mode.

Though if you thought that was tough... you should see Yiazmat from Final Fantasy XII. He's got 50 full health bars (to exemplify just how much HP he has, each bar = 1,000,000 HP) and a typical fight takes 2-3 hours, if you manage to somehow survive his arsenal of attacks...

Holy crow... I happen to stumble upon this a while back. It's insane! O_O

Yeah... Data-Xigbar, Data-Roxas and Data-Xemnas gave me so much pain on Critical. Proud Mode, I can manage, but Critical is something else :/

[]

So Toesan said all profiles with pictures are supposed to have cards. :/ I'm not sure if that seems right. What the probability that so many artists haven't shown up yet?

Ah, I saw Toesan's response and I'm still a little doubtful too~ I can think of so many artists that haven't even shown up yet and at this stage, I should have seen a vast majority of them. 

From experience with programming, we can easily assume that the cards are generated each round using a random number generator. Computers work using binary so computers are most comfortable with working with numbers in powers of 2. This usually applies to RNGs as well. Now the chances that the total number of eligible artists (by Toesan's definition) is also a power of 2 is extremely small. So what might have happened is that he set the RNG formula to count all artist profiles with profile pics, but because of the inherent limitations of using binary, the RNG might only count the number of cards up to the highest power of 2. What this means is that there might be say, 15,000 different eligible artists total, but the highest number that is a multiple of 2 here is 8,192, so the RNG can only count up to 8,192, meaning that the other 6,808 or so artists aren't counted and hence won't be generated. The computer can't use 16,388 (the next power of 2) because that would bug the game as some numbers aren't being coded for. A lot of video games have suffered from this problem and people often find a way to cheat the RNG because of it. That's my best explanation as to why some cards aren't showing up, but the issue is just as likely to be something else entirely. 

Can I get your opinion on something too, please? on this profile, there are several added albums, and I don't know if they're VA albums or collabs. I went ahead and  approved the videos with them because I didn't see the albums on another artist page, but I really don't know for sure.

These are basically OST albums (I'm referring to 'Show Me The Money') for a Korean rapping competition that is aired on TV, not for the artist himself. I would say that you have to delete them because we don't approve OST albums (for TV shows, dramas etc.)
