Hey guys!

For some reason I wasn’t getting these comments in my email, whoops!

@l.keller, sorry for the confusion! I know I have a lot of international readers and my english lends itself to the coloquialism side of things (even for people from the US, I am very much from New England, I talk wicked good.)

@everyone else, thank you so much for the kind words! I really love this site for the community (that’s you guys.) When I started there weren’t that many sites which gave me a leg-up in terms of building a community. there are others now (that are much more reticent about posting news updates, i might add) and I wish them luck. I stopped posting every spoiler and news item because I already had what I set out for—an amazing community. So hats-off to you guys for fulfilling my vision of what a HIMYM site could be.

I’m going to post a couple things later tonight or tomorrow to tide us over until the next new episode (#6 “Happily Ever After” aires on November 3rd, 2008AD at 8:30 EST on the CBS network) Hope that was clear

@L.keller.: My apologies. I think I have behaved like an asshole on this issue. Sorry. Sometimes I forgot this is nothing serious that my life depends on it… It’s a place to have fun alltogether around this element, HIMYM.

Once again, sorry…

by the way, how would everyone prefer the lily pregnancy if they finally write it to the story? Tell it from now on, or in flashbacks during “mid-end 4″/5 season?

Nothing farther from my intention than to order JD what to do. I think it is an awesome blog. But as we know from HIMYM “It´s hard to convey tone on emails” as it is on comments. My intention was to suggest JD that even if there is not a new episode this week, people (like me) want to be 100% sure that there is not, specially after last week´s episode. Because the weeks when there is not episodes people don´t comment much and that will give an excuse to do it (having a new post).

And I did correct his phrase “That’s correct. There’ll be a new episode the following week.”… not because that was the first thing I read and I thougth that there really was a new episode today, but to make a humoristic atttempt that i thought could be funny. But try to be funny and elegant writing from a turkish parlor in germany(i am not german) with people speaking loudly through webcam or telephone in all the languages of this earth, with a flu, with that insane turkish music and a connection speed that makes a donkey look fast.

I repeat myself and say that this blog is awesome, and I love JD in a manly way, and that I do click always on the banners so JD can keep the site without having to spend his own money. And of course sorry (to JD) if I have offended him in anyway.

Yea. many many thanks to JD. This is the only HIMYM site/blog I read because I find it the most insightful, and the other fans/commentors are good too. And with the 150 comment on the last post, seems like the site and show are growing its fan base.

We could all choose to waste our lives away on countless other HIMYM sites, but we choose to waste it here.

So thank you JD and HYMT Fans.

i don’t know whether it’s completely irrelevant , but I always felt thankful to JD for this wonderful site. I know there are hell lot of sites for HIMYM, and some of them has posted spoiler for even episode 10 by now. But according to me this is the best site for HIMYM. Mostly because here we can meet and express our perspective to other fans.
Thanks JD (no matter how wrong you were about intervention )

JD does an amazing work here with this page, and, although none of us pay him to do it, I can’t understand why you tell him what to do. He is a fan of the series as everyone here, and I really love coming here and reading all of the story he tells, as I love every commentary and different points of view. But telling him what to do (about writing if there’s an episode this week or no) seems to me so selfish…

too much. I made an error in the error correction. Hopeless.

I myself made an error. I wrote “if you dind´t read message#23″ when is “message #22″. Stupid!, stupid!, Stupid!

JD,

I know that you confirmed that there is not going to be a new episode next week. But i think it would be nice to put a post everytime there is not a new episode, because with the present state of things we are pretty tense to know more.

I read your answer #23 but it is a bit confusing because you said:

“That’s correct. There’ll be a new episode the following week.”

1/ That´s correct- usually shows enthusiasm and answers a positive question. In german you answer “Doch” when you want to say yes to a negative question. The same as in basque with “Baietz”. Perhaps changing the blog into german or basque would appeal to a smaller audience, but definitively would make a more accurate blog.

2/ There will be a new episode the following week.- You wrote that on Friday. If you didn´t read message #23 you probably think that there really is. The following week could mean the following week from that monday, but without having that information it means next week from today (sunday 26).

And getting ahead of you… yes, I do fear an intervention. But being in Germany probably is a 40 letters long banner, so they won´t do it. I am not in a “super important dessert scholarship”. But thanks to HIMYM I think I am learning German quicker (Prosieben Saturday .14h. 2 chapters), not very nice voices though.

By the way, thanks to the anonimous person that uploads right before it ends every week’s episode. Now from E! Ontario.
