Suskityrannus vs Maip

Factfiles:

Suskityrannus hazelae 

Artwork by Andrey Atuchin, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: Hazel Wolfe’s Coyote Tyrant 

Time: 92 million years ago (Turonian stage of the Late Cretaceous) 

Location: Moreno Hill Formation, Zuni Basin, New Mexico 

When you follow the progress of paleontology long enough, you start to see things that were previously left undescribed actually get names and the respect they deserve - whether its the “putative screamer” Anachronornis or the “Zuni Coelurosaur” Suskityrannus, you’re sure to get a nice moment and a sense of satisfaction from it. Suskityrannus has been well known for a while due to it being featured in both When Dinosaurs Roamed America as well as Planet Dinosaur. Thought at various times to be a basal Coelurosaur or Tyrannosauroid, its official description placed it somewhat derived within Tyrannosaurs, showcasing the evolution of the Tyrannosaur group as it transitioned from the smaller more speedy forms (like Suskityrannus) to the giant murder birds we know and love later in the Cretaceous. In fact, Suskityrannus lived in an ecosystem that highlighted its changing world, with many early representatives of the later iconic North American Cretaceous ecosystems showing up in early forms in Moreno Hill. Suskityrannus was about one meter tall and three meters long, and already had many adaptations known from later tyrannosaurs. In the forested coastal ecosystem at Moreno Hill, Suskityrannus would have been neighbors with Zuniceratops, Nothronychus, Jeyawati, ankylosaurs, fish, and turtles. 

Maip macrothorax

Artwork by @i-draws-dinosaurs, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: Long-chested Shadow of Death 

Time: 72 to 66 million years ago (Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous) 

Location: Chorrillo Formation, Patagonia, Argentina 

Megaraptors, a group not even really understood a few decades ago, just keep having more and more interesting members added to this group - Maip, a recent addition known from many bones of the trunk and tail, help fill out more of this picture with remains not known from other Megaraptors, and als having the most complete Megaraptor skeleton known. Maip was also interesting in having a very long, thick torso, leading to its specific name. It probably reached 9 to 10 meters in length in life, making it the largest Megaraptor known (literally reaching carcharodontosaurid size), and it may indicate that megaraptors rose to high-level predator status as other top predators went extinct in the region. It had a respiratory system similar to modern birds, with unidirectional air flow, much like other Saurischian dinosaurs. Living in southernmost South America, Maip would have had to deal with a variety of harsh climates, and may have been covered in feathers in order to keep warm. In addition to mosasaurs, snakes, turtles, mammals, fish, and frogs, Maip lived with other dinosaurs such as Nullotitan, Kookne, Yatenavis, and Isasicursor.

VOTE BERTHASAURA FOR DINOSAUR MARCH MADNESS 2023

​Berthasaura is just *barely* losing @a-dinosaur-a-day​‘s DMM poll and if the only remaining Noasaur loses to a friggin Spinosaur I might actually riot

A vote for Berthasaura is a vote for all Noasaurs, arguably the weirdest collection of non-avian theropods to ever exist. A vote for Berthasaura is, by extension, a vote for:

- Masiakasaurus “why are your teeth like that“ knopfleri of Prehistoric Planet fame, a genuíne Madagascan weirdo

-  Vespersaurus “only dinosaur that walks on one toe” paranaensis (yes that includes all birds), tragic second place of the previous round

- Limusaurus “are you sure that’s even a theropod” inextricabilis, which started out like normal little baby theropods before losing their teeth and becoming quasi-ornithomimid beaked herbivores, and its fellow Elaphrosaurines

- Noasaurids are also the closest relatives of Abelisaurs, which should be worth extra brownie points

And Berthasaura itself was no slouch either! In addition to being arguably The Most Ornithopod of any theropod (vote for wacky convergent evolution!), it evolved its toothlessness independently of the Elaphrosaurines, and was toothless its entire life! Friggin Noasaurs don’t even do toothlesness the same way twice apparently. Berthasaura also holds the distinction of being the second ever toothless non-ceolosaurian theropod to be described, and it had a nearly complete skeleton! Berthasaura was an ornithomimid before ornithomimids became cool (or even existed), an early-cretaceous throwback to Shuvosaurids, the first of a long line of weirdo theropods. Peak dinosaur, 9/10.

Meanwhile Ceratosuchops is what, a Baryonychine with a horn on its head? Boo, unoriginal, 4/10. The horn ain’t even that big. It’s only known from some fragments of a skull (again: compare to Berthasaura’s remarkably complete skeleton) and in all honesty I’m just tired of Spinosaurs at this point. I couldn’t even keep track of whatever Spinosaurus drama was happening back when I was deep in my early Covid paleo hyperfixation and I'm kinda scared to check in on it. Apologies to Darren Naish, but I’ve had a petty grudge against spotlight-stealing Spinosaurs since like the third post-2014 Spinosaurus paper and it sure as hell-herons ain’t going away now. Sure, Ceratosuchops was a heron-analogue with a cool name, but it’s not even a proper heron mimic. If you want some real convergent evolution, vote for Berthasaura. 

Am I deliberately skimping on Baryonychine facts due to a petty grudge against the most famous member of the family? Yes definitely absolutely. They get enough attention as is. And what do they have that Noasaurs don’t? Weird teeth and an aquatic diet? See Masiakasaurus. Big fore-claws? See Noasaurus. Large size? Overrated, and Deltadromeus might be a Noasaur so they even have that covered. Sail-backs and a semiaquatic lifestyle? That’s Spinosaurus bias talking, vote for Bajadasaurus or Annakacygna instead. Spinosaurs may be fan-favorite weirdo dinosaurs, but I think that Noasaurs were objectively weirder and deserve to advance in the polls. Vote Berthasaura for a weirder, wackier theropod (and a way to unload that pent-up anti-Spinosaurus grudge, if you like)

[yutaleks]

long story short, except for the "album incl" (<- every collectible you can obtain by simply buying an album, no matter when or where), every single bullet point is a different store that's selling preorder benefits with the albums

if you order from "dmm" for their first event, for example, it means you get a random photocard of one of the four members of the group "kiss of life" (<- go check their songs btw, rnb vibes, very cool and very talented girls)

by buying 4 albums, you get the full set, so ot4 pre-order benefits (<- photocard sized, so around 55x85mm)

these preorder benefits can only be obtained via preorder ofc, and they sell for around 8 to 12 depending on the group; for the lucky draws, it's different since they're more based on luck + you have to physically go there, so they sell for around 12 to 15, sometimes 50 if it's the 3rd round of lucky draws, depending on the group too etc

we try to avoid member pricing in the west, let me use a jjk example to make it clearer:

let's say gojo and shoko are in a group and have photocards. each photocard should be worth $5 because you have as many chances to pull gojo than you do pulling shoko.

member pricing is putting gojo at idk $10 because he's more popular than shoko. member pricing can also be by underpricing (<- ngl idc about that part, let me get my merch for cheap), so idk maybe geto and gojo are both $5 each but shoko would be $2 in this example. anyway!!

it's probably not very interesting dshhds i basically fell in a rabbit hole by ordering all of the members every time, but i just wanted my albums for cheap and was planning on reselling the inclusions inside since i don't collect anymore... but i fell into the rabbit hole </3

spent around 3,5k just for twice (the last group on the screenshot) but at least i'll get maybe 2,5/3k just by reselling the preorder benefits, and i should get around 7k in total if i resell the inclusions too

ANYWAY don't be like me

Wait WHAT do you mean you spent 3.5K on twice

Wait so you have to buy an album more than once to collect the cards?? Bro no wonder these people make so much money wtf my rock bands need to get on this shit alfjdkfj

#this reminds me of when I used to buy multiple manga mags to get the extras… but I’d just throw away the extra mags LOLOL #this is very complicated I’m staying away from kpop #ϟ asking aleksandria #fwb anon

[dialovers-translations]

Hihi! I'm interested in translation myself but I'm a little stuck in my Japanese studies since I've graduated from uni and therefore don't have access to classes at the intermediate level. I wanted to ask what sources you use to research Japanese you come across that you don't understand, be it grammar, kanji, or vocabulary.

When translating, I always have two tabs open:

One with jisho.org which is a Japanese/English dictionnary which knows most words. It has a kanji section as well where you can either write/draw the character or look it up by radicals, which is really convenient when translating a game because you obviously can’t just copy/paste text when the dialogue is on a game console.

Then the other tab is just a Google page which I use to look up certain expressions/proverbs. Basically I just type the word or the expression in Japanese and put the word 英語 or ‘eigo’ behind it. This will usually give you results of Japanese people asking native English speakers for advice on how to translate certain words. One site which comes up a lot is the forum/Q&A of ‘DMM eikawa’.

Bannykus vs Ambopteryx

Factfiles:

Bannykus wulatensis

Artwork by @i-draws-dinosaurs, written by @i-draws-dinosaurs

Name meaning: Half claw from Wulatehouqi

Time: 113 to 100 million years ago (Albian stage of the Early Cretaceous)

Location: Bayin-Gobi Formation, Inner Mongolia, China

If there’s one group of dinosaurs that has most recently gained more fame among casual dinosaur fans it’s probably alvarezsauridae, elevated to stardom by the Mononykus that captured everyone’s hearts in Prehistoric Planet. The bizarre group of single-clawed maniraptorans has been studied for a while, but their evolutionary origins have fairly mysterious until recently. How did that whole giant thumb claw thing happen??

Published in 2018 alongside more basal alvarezsaur Xiyunykus, Bannykus helps to fill in a gap in that evolutionary pathway! More specifically, they help to fill in a 70 million year long gap between the primitive Late Jurassic Haplocheirus and the very end of the Cretaceous! Notably, Bannykus has a larger thumb claw that the rest of its claws, but the other fingers are at least partially functional instead of just nubbins. It’s a lot easier to see how the later alvarezsaurids got to where they are from here! Next time you lose your mind over the Mononykus from Prehistoric Planet (which I do at least weekly), say a thank you to the lil guy with slightly less weird hands. Thumbs up to Bannykus!

Ambopteryx longibrachium

Artwork by Gabriel Ugueto, written by @i-draws-dinosaurs

Name meaning: Both wings with long arms

Time: 163 million years ago (Callovian stage of the Middle Jurassic)

Location: Haifanggou Formation, China

Look, evolution has done a lot of weird stuff to dinosaurs. It put penguins underwater, and did whatever the hall mamenchisaurid necks are, and game lambeosaurs a built-in face trumpet. But I would argue there is one group that represents dinosaur evolution at its most unhinged, and that is scansoropterygidae.

Scansoriopterygids were generally considered “weird little tree dinosaurs” in the 2000s, with long fingers to pick grubs out of bark or something. Then Yi qi swept along in 2015 and revealed that those long fingers were actually supporting membranous bat wings. With an extra bony rod (the “styliform element”) sticking out of the wrist to help support it, because well if you’re a dinosaur evolving bat wings why bother being normal about it after that? Although really, the dinosaurs did it first so bats actually have dinosaur wings.

Yi was sensational, but it was also extremely weird and completely unique. Even other scansoriopterygids didn’t have wing membranes, so the whole bat thing was a bit up in the air. Or not up in the air, as the case may be. But then along comes Ambopteryx, published in 2019, packing another set of skin wings, and the vindication of Yi is complete! 

Ambopteryx preserves a styliform element and wing membrane, as well as a thick coat of feathers, and honestly out of a whole selection of dinosaurs I think these might be some of the most huggable in the lot. Obviously this whole wing membrane thing didn’t end up working out for them long term, but Ambopteryx is part of an incredible lineage that challenged what we thought was possible for dinosaurs!

Touken Ranbu Honmaru Tribute

Hello!, we are so close to the eng release, I’m so excited as someone who hasn’t play the game in a while (+1 years minimum). The game was good, but a lot of a hastle with the vpn and waiting times and not enough gameplay haha. (I didn’t mind the gameplay being repetitive, but combined it made me stop)

So, now, I’m really excited to being able to play in the eng server, but it also make me realise that ‘yeah, I probably won’t use the dmm account anymore’, so I drew some of my favourite swords (I love them all, but these have helped me so much!!, and I can’t draw them all, so these nine will do!!)

The post is gonna be long, so I will put it under a cut, here it goes:

 First, my Fudou:

Fudou has a special place in my heart, because he was the swords that made me take interest in the game. I remember that he was rare then, and how happy everyone was when his kiwame was anounnced. (I remeber those shaky letters and get emotional, you got so far!) That, speaking of, was great.

Next his comrade in the Oda clan,  Yagen:

I gave him his glasses in the pic because he looks great on them.  I love him, like the design, loved his kiwame story,(boy was just so silent and then in the letters he calmly dropped a bomb). And he is a BEAST in combat.

Closing up the Oda swords, Souza:

I realise now that I put a lot of Oda swords, I was unsure between Souza and Kotetsu, but Souza is just so useful and I find his voice relaxing. And I like thinking he likes getting strong and fighting.  Also, the butterflies! So pretty!!

 Now, Nagasone!

In the middle; Mikazuki:

Nagasone is the first ‘rare’ sword I got (I got him iin my first days and did not get a second for almost two years). It was rare (at least for me ) at the time. The captain of the Shinsengumi's sword, he sounds so confident and leaderish (?) but also has the complex of not being loved for being a forgery, that he more or less gets over in his kiwame (his talk with Kondo was so wholesome!)

Jiji’s just so charming! It took me a while to get him, but my reason for putting him here is mostly because he is the face of the franchise and when I was distanced of the game and fandom I still saw Jiji and it  made me remeber the game and get me happy- So i really like Jiji’s, he’s  the only one in this list without a kiwame, let’s hope he has a good one!

Next, Smily NIkkari!

With a friend at his back!. Wakizashis in general are great in this game (Honorable mention to Honebami and namazou, both are beasts), but the one I like most is Nikkari. The kiwame was great, I like his ghost thing, and his attendant music is one of the best! 

Now from small to big, Jiroutachi

Oodachis are great too, atacking multiple targets feels so satisfactory.(Naginatas too, but they take too long, if I had another space here, it would go to Tomoegata Naginata) and Jirou was my first. What can I say? they are  great, the kiwame is gorgeous, hits like a truck and not as slow as Tarou or Ishi. (Hone is difficult to get, you know?) And they are always smiling and on good humor ! (haha, that kiwame letter T-T)

Now, for a treat, my first smithed sword, Maeda:

And of course, here comes my first sword!

Oh, color! Haha, a bit. I wouldn’t be able to post this before the game release if I coloured them all, but Maeda was with me from the beggining, so I had to. He’s also the first sword I sent to kiwame training. Now I now more history, so his letter makes more sense, but I like his desing too. He may not hit as strong as Yagen, but  a word to describe Maeda in battle and in general would be ‘reliable’

He’s beautifu, classy and with a tint of hidden sadness that becomes less as he progresses! My first cute sword! I liked his desing form day one. He was Okita’s sword, and I was a bit of watching Shinsengumi shows back then, so it got me excited. And his ‘I come from the river’ while talking about his history, so cool. Nowadays, if I was starting from zero Touken Ranbu, maybe I would pick Kasen or  Hachisuka (Kasen because Edo, Hachisuka because golden armor), but of course with all the good memories, I will select him again in my new account!

I am so excited to play the game. But also I wanted to do this to say goodbye to the old honmaru. I wonder what happens to swords in honmaru’s like mine (do I provide energy?, the honmaru is still there, or not?, how do swords cope? do they independize, do they perish in agony, are they reasigned?) Well, at least I will provide them energy, and for the rest, I just want them to reach happiness!

To end up, a little tribute to one if not MY favourite character, that’s mostly hated, but I love, as a person doing his best even as he has not fucking idea how to forge naginatas (my first was Tomoegata, from an event). Who’s favourite family are the Samonji brothers, and that forged me a yari after a bad day. The lovable idiot that drains my resources but always gives his best. Thank you too, smith, please take care of them. And let’s work hard again, too.

Let the sunny days be plenty.

HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT

The Gakuen Heaven: Mixed Edition DAY ONE & TWO PATCH is here!

As with our last release, this is a PARTIAL PATCH. This one covers days one and two of the common route. We will continue to release incremental patches for GH:ME over time as translation and editing work is completed!

We’re releasing the patch this way instead of all at once because it will take YEARS of work with “nothing to show for it” otherwise. We want to let you guys get your teeth into the GH story as soon as possible. And hopefully you’ll cheer us on as we continue to work on providing updates. :D

Get the details and download the patch HERE! :D

~~~

/!\ IMPORTANT NOTE /!\

We will NEVER provide the game files or help anyone locate a download. The BL game industry is struggling and we will not harm Spray by helping others get access to their work for free. I think they already died though :(

If you prefer instant gratification, GH:ME is available as a paid digital download on DMM and DLSite! Just search for “dmm 学園ヘヴン” or  “dlsite 学園ヘヴン” on Google and click the first result you get!

Please NOTE that I have tested this patch with the DMM version but NOT the DLSite version. It probably works but I need someone to confirm for me!

Or I can help you locate a physical copy of the game - just contact me through our askbox!

~~~

Let’s celebrate with TWO giveaways!

We’re giving away TWO games again! First is a copy of Mixed Edition, of course, but there’s also a copy of GH2 up for grabs! Perfect for patching with our full GH2 patch, released last September. :D

PS: I’m going to update the GH2 patch with some fixes soon, so look forward to that too! Aiming for some time in August. :)

Yes, I’m reusing the photo from the last giveaway. It’s not like the game covers changed between then and now...

~~~

Want a chance to win? Here’s what you have to do!

REBLOG this post to get one entry. (Likes don’t count!)

TAG your reblog with #ghgiveaway AND/OR #gh2giveaway so I KNOW you’re interested in the giveaway. NO TAG = NO ENTRY!

You can enter for both games BUT YOU CAN ONLY WIN ONE. If I draw the same person for both, they will receive the game with the MOST entries, and I will redraw for the other.

FOLLOW our blog for an additional entry. (PS: Followers aren’t automatically entered - you have to reblog so I know you’re actually interested in this giveaway!)
