HP-UX? wth its that?!
One of Unix-sama's idiot progeny.
She has hundreds of descendants (THOUSANDS prior to the Unix Wars of the early 90's), but none are still fit to succeed her. (Linux-tans offer some hope, but they're not really part of the Unix bloodline).
It's hard to gauge the full scope of the threat when only Linux-tan and Linspire-tan are shown with any regularlity. But in reality, this, my dear 95-san (or 2K-san, based on that quiz), is what you have to compete against:

Nah, but seriously, you could read the Wikipedia entry about this magnificent platform/OS here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga
Back in the beginning of the 1990s, it was years and years ahead of PCs/Macs/whatever in both visual and audio, and well, in pretty much everything that can be thought of. Succumbed to a shocking defeat due to mismanagement, though. v_v

Quotewhoops. i didn't notice that ^^; my bad.
Okay it is. Are none of us perfect!
Love that particular quiz since that one gives you the chance to be Amiga-tan. ^.^
Perhaps in the distant future, we can program our own quiz to expand the range of OS-tans (and update some pictures -- the current OSX-tan is a touch outdated, there's no 3.1-sama, and they still have LONGHORN! O.O.
but longhorn is cute and pretty and i like her! *cries alittle*
Well that does bring up another point.
Once an established Vista design is settled upon,...
http://ostan.blackdiam.net/viewtopic.php?p=7003#post_7003
...now the question remains, will we simply "disappear" Longhorn (as she technically IS Vista), or will we still acknowledge a separate OS girl as representing her (sort of like the prototype of Vista)?
Hmm,... maybe this calls for a referendum as well....? -v-
i say keep her as the original and create vista as a new serperate OS girl
But if there is a Longhorn-tan and a Vistan, and they are technically the same person, wouldn't that cause some sort of time paradox in the OS-tan world? ;020
But I am in favor of keeping Longhorn-tan, because I've seen some really cool ones but of course if we all decide to keep Longhorn-tan, we'd have to do another "Vote for the best character design" thing just like for Vistan.
we could make them as younger/older sisters or technical twins. kind of like the 3 XP-tans.
One is the ME-ish sister of the other one?
Bam! I just had an idea!
- Longhorn-tan represents "Longhorn" Server, which comes out in 2008
- The Rozen-Maiden Vista represents Windows Vista Ultimate
- The Screw-haired Ninja Vista represents Windows Vista Starter
- The "Screwy" Generic Schoolgirl Vista represents Windows Vista Home Basic
- The Blonde-Haired Loli w/ Long Pigtails & Windows Logo Hairclips Vista represents Windows Vista Home Premium
- The Shikijou Saori-Knockoff Vista represents Windows Vista Enterprise
- The Blonde-Haired Loli w/ Long Pigtails & Longhorn Logo Hairclips Vista represents Windows Vista Business
Or something along these lines...
Wow! A Kami-Tux sighting! @v@
Where's my net,.. gotta make sure Oh Penguin God doesn't disappear again! ^__^
NewYinzer, methinks you hit on a fantastic compromise! ^V^
I love the idea, or at least something along those lines... ^.^
This has gotta go to the Annex.... -v-
*scurries off to Annex*
QuoteNewYinzer, methinks you hit on a fantastic compromise! ^V^
I love the idea, or at least something along those lines... ^.^
Yeah. I had thought of it based on the idea that many different OS-tans were used for different versions of Windows XP. However, my idea is for different designs to represent different versions, and I suggested which design should fit each version. The current versions planned versions of the OS are:
- Windows Vista Starter
- Windows Vista Home Basic
- Windows Vista Home Premium
- Windows Vista Business
- Windows Vista Enterprise
- Windows Vista Ultimate
BTW, Longhorn-tan was originally meant to be the design for Vista. However, MSFT officially changed the name of the OS to Vista, while making the codename for Server 2007 is "Longhorn". The problem we'll be running into is whether people will be using the current Longhorn design for Server 2007, or designing her as another Saba. Personally, I think there is no sense in any of the Saba-tans besides Server 2003.
It seems we both have different things in mind for Vis-tan, eh? ^^
QuoteIt seems we both have different things in mind for Vis-tan, eh? ^^
We probably do. Since we're on the subject, do you have an idea?
It's posted in the Annex... although, it's a very fluid idea, not too much set in stone
As for the different versions, I've been pondering that for a while....

thank god someone knows the names of all the versions of Vista ;010
If not for the fact that there are 123,502 flavors of Unix, excluding pattern pieces and die errors, I'd be just about ready to cuss out M$.
Now I'm starting to miss just plain ol' "Windows 95", end of story... at least the old hag kept it simple.... -v-
My suggestion, instead of making separate versions, we just give them weapons of various strength. I mean, What kind of weapons... I don't know.
What are they armed with usually, anyway? I see 2k-tan with this massive gundam-like sword thingy, 95 obviously has the katana... what else do they have?
Come to think of it, 95-tan is the only Windows-tan I've seen with an official weapon. Sure, I've seen 2k-tan with said sword and the other girls wielding some heavy firepower and certain one-shots; but other than that, you don't see them dueling much.... ^^'
So before engaging in the fun project of arming Vista-tan, I agree with you in that we should engage in the even more fun-filled project of arming the existing Windows line-up.... ^v^'
For example, is Me-tan's Scallion-O-Death really the only thing she wields? `v'
Recently I've seen the two 98-tan's with some intimidating-looking halberds.... ^__^'
Must the OS Girls carry weapons? Isn't it enough that the games genre is filled with violence, as is the balance of the anime and manga genres? Even if I was enamoured with depictions of hostility freaks on killing rampages, which I'm not, I'd still wonder why they run about with clubs and spears in this era of drive-through firearms shops.
If XP-tan ends up being required to carry weapons, let me suggest she pack an old government-issue Colt .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol. Just the sight of that gun will keep the knives-and-swords types at a respectful distance.
;013
=^..^=
Somehow, I thought you'd ask that.... ^__^
Don't worry, what I really am getting at is that I doubt any of them are seriously armed, so unless we arm Vista from the get-go, not sure if the idea will fly with everyone.
Presumably since the OS-tans are symbolic representations to begin with, the weapons themselves are symbols. That's the reason how Windows 95, equipped with a katana, can fight on even footing with OS/2-tan, whose equipped with a Star Trek era phaser.
Ultimately, an OS-tan's power lies both in herself (technical prowess) and in the strength of her userbase.
(Large Windows user base = substantial power and resources to supplement a technically inferior product.)
C-Chan added the following 1 minute after last message :
BTW, about your latest and greatest sig...
1: Did XP-tan get..... a "tan"? 'v'
(BWAHAHAHA!)
and
2: Why is she pointing that at me..... Ã,¬vÃ,¬'
*blushes*
Weapons + the Windows Os-tan's = massive fun for all ;001
Indeed, C-Chan, your friend and mine XP-tan has a nice tan now! I was tired of seeing all these pale-female types, so I took XP-tan on a vacation to the Hawaiian island of Kaua'i. She did a lot of surfing ââ,¬â€ being quite familiar with the phenomenon ââ,¬â€ impressing all the locals and getting a thorough tan thanks to the selection of Brazilian tangas available at island shops. (She ended up with a long list of telephone numbers, by the way.)

Now, I'm not sure exactly which thing you mean by "that thing." But whatever thing it is, I'm sure it's a nice thing!

But in your honest opinion, what would you gauge XP-san's height to be in real-life measurements?
Metric or US measurments are fine....

Wow, I'm late to this conversation. True, weapons probably won't be a permanent part of most designs. I like the idea of battles against errors, worms and viruses. ^^
Another random idea: windows update = bill gates dropping supplies from a helicopter
Oh yeah, definitely. Although worms/viruses are only a concern for the Windows-tans. ^__^
Other OS-tans probably just grab some popcorn and enjoy the show. ^.^
[RISC-san, especially, is impervious to viruses, and you already drew what OS/2 would do to one.... ^.^]

GNU's not Unix (yes, that is what the abbreviation means, G for Gnu N for not and U for Unix). The HURD is an OS which is under development since the 90ies and still has not reached 1.0. It is repeatedly joked to come in half a year and have Duke Nukem Forever on the ISO-image as well as using E17 as default desktop (which is a joke because both programs are vaporware).

That is cool.
Thank you IDKM. ^___^
So now you're officially a gun-wielding, multi-tasking, warrior woman (and partime Trekkie) with a 20-year vendetta against ALL Windows-tans. Neat, eh? ^__^
Added after 2 minutes:
Oh, and that quote is old,... eComStation is DESTINED to revive OS/2 for the 21st century! ^v^
(now if we can only get IBM/M$ to let OS/2 be Open Source,... those greedy bastards.... Ã,¬vÃ,¬)
OpenOS/2! that would be great!
BTW: is 'Minorities are the majority!' correct English? I need it for OS/2-tan...
Well it's for a placcard, no? Doesn't really have to be proper English, but regardless the phrase does seem to be grammatically correct. ^v^
There is an free OS/2 project out there, but it's really more like a Linux distros pretending to be OS/2 (much like AROS is an independent OS pretending to be Amiga). ^__^
You can't blame people for trying, but unless IBM/M$ finally let go of poor OS/2-tan (and by consequence, eCS-chan), we'll never have a true free successor of OS/2. -.-
Serenity Systems can't do it, because eCS is built on OS/2 and IBM holds the license to it still. And while IBM has been relatively friendly to the OSS community, they certainly can't release OS/2 because some of the original code belongs to M$. (They're powerful-enough to try, but,... meh,... I guess they won't. ^^;)
Fun! Fun! I got OS X!
Yay! How appropriate!! ^v^
Now we need to see if there's a similar survey for game consoles, and see if you score maximum Wii-age. ^__^
What the hell? On the OS test I got HP-UX
On the OS-tan test I got Windows 95.
Ironic I've never used either ;) Especially not the top one.
edited for a problem I had with pasting HTML code.
You are a Unix! A powerful Unix!
Wahhhh ToT!!!
Alexis died... but I put a mirror at http://mx.geocities.com/xiwang_zitzit5/ostan/ostan.html ^.^...
Thanks...
I wanna be a vista-tan ... but i dunno if you guys have one yet
I'm Windows 95!!!!!!
Yeah me too, I just hope im 95c. No USB support would be sad. Although its not usable USB anyway. But at least FAT32 would be good.
(http://www.bbspot.com/Images/News_Features/2003/01/os_quiz/windows_98.jpg)
Guess I'm Windows 98 >.< Also got Apple DOS?
OMG!!!!
I got XP on both! Since, for some reason, I cannot post HTML, this is what is says:
OS-tan:
You are Windows XP. You are the newest Windows girl, and fairly popular. You’re pretty stable, and easily the prettiest of the bunch, but you can also be a bit shallow and you’re always hungry. Also, why does your name look like the irritated emoticon?
OS:
You are Windows XP. Under your bright and cheerful exterior is a strong and stable personality. You have a tendency to do more than what is asked or even desired.
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure you got XP twice.... -v-
Betcha you were HP-UX , and just decided to "massage" the results a little. `v'
FYI, I was Amiga and OS/2 when I first played this. Yep, definitely no bias there. ^__^
Don't recall know if they had AppleDOS, though. '__'
Hey, shouldn't we make our own "what os-tan are you" quissu? That'd be quite splendid, i imagine.
I'm starting to learn programming, so that definitely sounds like something I would be interested in trying out further down the line. ^__^
(I imagine some purists would raise hell, though.) -v-'
Well first of which ones would be in it? Just canon ones or any you come up with?
Hehe... nothing's canon around here anymore. -v-
Besides, there's lot of new canon characters that don't show up in the OS-tan quiz.
*cough cough* 3.1-sama *cough wheeze cough*
I agree! Need an updated OS-tan quiz!
There are several things that make that one obsolete such as there's no 3.1-tan, 95-tan is not the oldest, no Saba-tan, XP-tan is not the youngest, no 98SE-tan, there is no longer an official Longhorn-tan (in fact, I think there ever was one), no Vistan, no Linspire-tan, no CE-tan, the Mac OSX-tan was only a one-shot rendition and there is now an official one
I have learned how to make online quizzes but I haven't successfully attempted one like that though
QuoteSuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure you got XP twice.... -v-
Betcha you were HP-UX , and just decided to "massage" the results a little. `v'
Err....I have no idea what you mean, no ;014 In my defense, I didn't even know I could get XP on the OS quiz...I thought the only Windows OS one could get is ME....Which I was trying to avoid, XD
As for making a new OS-tan quiz, if anyone decides to makes one I'd be glad to help with ideas! It should have more OS-tans, not just the Windows and Mac-tans. Maybe Amiga-sama, OS/2-sama, and a few Linux or Unix-tans...
Naturally, naturally.... ^__^
The second quiz is a little better at that, but shocked you didn't expect an XP there. XP is literally crawling all over the place. ^^;
Speaking of which, the OS-tan quiz link seems to be broken for me now, so I was wondering if anyone else was having that problem.
It might be worth it to copy the page source to see what kind of scripting job was done.
I´m the OS X... ;014
I got...Debian Linux

I AM...
The suspence is killing you isn't it?

Oh, and I got:
(http://mx.geocities.com/xiwang_zitzit5/ostan/98.jpg)
You are Windows 98. You are the second oldest of the windows girls. You’re neither beloved nor despised, but many people still use you. You also have a box you keep with you at all times, for reasons known only to you.
AHA!!!! 98 is the THIRD oldest (not counting windows 1 and 2)!!!!!!!!
also
(http://mx.geocities.com/xiwang_zitzit5/ostan/2k.jpg)
You are Windows 2000 Professional Edition. You are the most stable and reliable of all the Windows girls. Of course, since your main comparison is with ME, that’s not saying much. You’re popular with some, but you’re being replaced with XP. You often help take care of your sister ME.
wauwf! :3
(http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/longhorn.jpg)
You are Longhorn, the unreleased new version of Windows. No one knows much about you. You’re very mysterious, but will you ever be released?
I think it's becoming awfully apparent that the test needs to updated/fact-checked a bit -__-.
More like it needs to be updated a lot!
Heheh... I remember back in 2005-2006 when Longhorn/Vista's release date kept getting pushed back and I wanted to bet whether Duke Nukem Forever or Windows Vista would be released first! (BTW, development on Duke Nukem Forever was recently canceled altogether.)
i know i'm mysterious sometimes, but......longhorn? really? :\
Quote from: "Aurora Borealis"More like it needs to be updated a lot!
Well, yeah, but I was hoping to entice someone by making it sound like less work than it is.
QuoteI wanted to bet whether Duke Nukem Forever or Windows Vista would be released first!
For me it was between Nukem and Chinese Democracy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Democracy), but usually I just stuck with the old joke about there being democracy in China before Chinese Democracy would be released...
then I would say "Where's your oxymoron now, Axl?!" XDQuote(BTW, development on Duke Nukem Forever was recently canceled altogether.)
Really? Not that surprising, but still, the last time I checked (a day or two ago) it was just shelved again.
Quote from: "Chocofreak13"i know i'm mysterious sometimes, but......longhorn? really? :\
The result you got was more or less a kind of stock answer that test makers use when they run out of personality traits to associate to a particular result. Lazy test-making, that's all it is...
I've read it from only one source so I'm not completely sure but it's reasonable to assume that Duke Nukem Forever has been canceled altogether because development started in 1997 and gaming has changed a whole lot since then, and it would be very costly and time-consuming to update all of the graphics and gameplay to 2009 standards.
heh heh. duke nukem. falling techno. xD
From my understanding, 3D Realms had started again on DNF in 2007, so if you look it up, there's actually quite a few screens out there demonstrating DNF is up to current-gen standards (http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/54940) (in terms of graphics). Of course, even if the graphics were up to par, there's the question of gameplay, and even more so than graphics, shooters have improved greatly in gameplay. In Nukem's absence there have been a slew of new franchises that have brought in major innovations (like GeoMod in Red Faction, Halo's Physics Engine, and the cover system in Gears of War). Chances are DNF's biggest selling point would the signature crude humor. Rumors of the games' cancellation have started due to 3D Realms releasing the development team working on the game, but they're insisting they'll still be continuing development of the game (riiiiight). Take Two Interactive (the parent company of the legendary Rockstar Games) is currently involved in a legal battle with 3D Realms, alleging breach of contract due to the lack of satisfactory progress on the game.
Anyway, that's seriously OT, sorry about that. Still, who's good at making personality tests? I mean good, not some simple "I know exactly what answers to fill in to get the result I want" test.
EDIT: btw anyone else amused by the initialism of Duke Nukem Forever (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNF)? lol
and I mean the one right under Duke Nukem Forever XD
I got longhorn'd too. -.-
Is that thing really reliable...?
On that topic, shouldn't we make one of these of our own? Like, official /osc/ quiz or something?
Okay, yes that test is a bit outdated , single gendered, and very easily manipulated...
Second, such a test here would be a fun idea...
And third, Duke Nukem Forever is Vaporware (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware) like S.T.A.L.K.E.R., wich eventually got released and got good reviews...
On the other hand DNF won Wired News' Vaporware Award 8 times, plus Wired made the Vaporware Lifetime Achievement Award exclusively for DNF and obviously awarded it to them...
Also;
Quote from: "wikipedia"After thirteen years in development, 3DRealms halted production of the game after closing on May 6, 2009, and all employees who worked on DNF had been let go.
But isn't this a bit OT?
T_T It's sad because it's true...

i'm os/2 warp o.O sadly i never heard of it...but then again im a hardcore PC person :o
OS/2 is an advanced OS that was developed in collaboration between Microsoft and IBM in the late 1980's and was expected to be even more successful than MS-DOS but didn't catch on very well (and was left to IBM) because of Windows 3.x's and Windows 95's success. OS/2's support by IBM was ultimately dropped on Dec 31 2006 but still has a very strong and loyal userbase.
If you're curious: Wikipedia article on OS/2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS/2)
There also exists an OS/2-tan, who is a Star Trek fangirl and has a huge vendetta against the Windows-tans after being betrayed by both of her companies and wants nothing but revenge against the Windows Family despite the odds she is against.
I'm TRSDOS, uffi what is that!And...NewYinzer, my color is blue too, but I've put in a enother forum...
TRS-DOS is the primary OS for the Tandy TRS-80 home computers, first released in 1978.

You are Apple OS 9. You have been pretty much supplanted by your new sister, but you’re still around to help her out, and those who know you remember you fondly. You hate Windows with a burning passion.
The first link is down; on the second link, I'm Red Hat Linux. "You are Red Hat Linux. You're tops among your peers, but still get no respect from them. It's all right with you. You have your sights set higher." Quite accurate to my current real-life self, and very close to my high-school self.

Someones of OSC members may be remember this post ^^... well, the terrible bad news is that Geocities (Where I mirrored the quiz) will close website activities the 28th of this month T_T, and then my backup link will death too ;_;...
I thinking on backup it on my account at Miarroba or my main at Angelfire (mirror one more time =_=) and then I had an idea owO: may be a chance for complete the quiz with the new OS-tan ^^, just is necessary to add the new questions (and vista need an update ^^) and then I re-upload updated ^^ (really the first reason is because this was the first quiz that I solve about OS-tan... and then is a sentimental reason TwT)...
What do you think owO???
Why don't we just make one of our own?

Srsly. But I haf to control it, they say it will make you forgetful. o_O It be true?
Well, we can work out the Pseudo code here...
Then do it! OwO
We should add more results like em... Site-tans and Malware-tans.
Okay. Lets make a list of Tan's to be included, lets say no more than 30.
Os/2
Windows 3.1
Windows 95
Windows 98
Windows 2000
Windows ME
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Mac OS X
Linux (I don't know any verities)
...
Feel free to suggest more, but the longer the list of tan's to be included, the longer it will take to make the quiz.
Hmm... Maybe we should make it less gender-specific too. I mean like, why would a male wear 'sexy schoolgirl' style?
xD
Plus, we need MOAR choices, MOAR. The whole wikipedia list to be exact, well except the not famous ones.

Maybe I should make my own site-kun.

Gonna expire this 24th, better renew it soon.
How about Homeo and that male XP-Pro variation, and the 95?
Oh yeah.... the list should be done FIRST then the questions.
Then we make some sort of attraction list to each question like;
Sexually confused?
if 'yes'
Homeo +1
XP Pro +0
And probably some negatives too.. I'll upload it to my site afterwards.

Emmm That's a hell lot of Linux and Macs, trim them down.
And the Error-tans.... hmmm, should we just let 404 in the quiz?
How about just one Linux and Mac?
I was about to say that.
Then we need to know which format would be the answers like?
The 'Yes and No'?
The 'Multiple Answers'?
The 'Quizzilla Format'?
1: trimming done
2: What's the Quzzila format?
3: One question should ask if they are a pervert. If yes, They are Norton-kun
You forget Homeko.
Quote from: "Sora"...
Windows XP Pro
Windows XP "Homeko"
Windows XP Media Center Edition
Windows 2003 Server
...
This Homeko?
Yes, known as such for the simple reason of XP Home, Home-ko, Homeko etc
Quote from: "Sora"
3: One question should ask if they are a pervert. If yes, They are Norton-kun
Or Homeko, or Cheetah-tan.
Or pretty much anyone if you just dig deep enough
But to keep it simple, lets just say Norton-kun, okay?
I don't think you should skewer the entire quiz just because they answer yes to that question. For example, it could be stacked 99% in their favour that they are 98-tan, but they answer yes to "Are you a pervert?" and they get bumped to Dr. Norton. Not the best idea in my opinion.
I concur.
And the quizilla format is more like the yes and no, but you can choose how far you agree/disagree.
Screw it, let's just make multiple answers, that'll save a lot of questioning.
Homeko and Norton are perverts, yeah, and there should be an answer like 'probably, but I don't really show it', that'll be more towards Homeo.

Bah, big day tomorrow, I'll have my last paper for my big exam. Blagh here are a few questions...
...
...
...
...
Ok my mind is in total blank. XP
wooooo O_O, the list is very extense ^^'... btw, a question, quizilla oO???
Added after 2 minutes:
ah!, I think the best way is:
Question: ???
Answer A: X-tan points, Answer B: X-tan points...
then each specific question leads to one specific OS-tan ^^...
Objection your honor!
Using this technique, the user ofthe quiz could expect the results, which leads to inaccuracy. In addition, more questions must be made, thus boring the user.
I suggest more questions that specifies to certain, but not one, results.
This is a quiz, not a riddle. -.-
You are obviously don't know what I'm talking about.
Ok just for the hell of it.
Example:
Describe yourself:
A pervert
A hot chick
A cross-dressing human
See? We're killing two birds with one stone here lawl. With questions that give more choices means less questions, unexpecting (but precise) results.
But yes, we could usea few questions that specify to a person though.
Dun.
I'm not even bothering calculating the efficiency rate of that, since I know it'd be quite bothersome to set up; also, the downside of your "unexpectedness" is inaccuracy. If you just make the quiz long enough, you can achieve unexpectedness without losing accuracy.
(Then again, it's a quiz, not expecting some damn oracle here -w-)
It's just too dam long! LOOK AT THE LIST
THINK LOGICALLY
It makes perfect sense not to include EVERY single character in a quiz. All OS'es, in one, and then perhaps app-tans and viru/malware-tans in separate versions.
Cluttering = DO NOT WANT
Then I'll be seeing that updated list, FROM YOU. :D

Questionmarked viru-kuns for duplicity, do you really need multiple versions of viru-tans? That seems redundant.
There you go, list get.

I'm not a demon overlord for nothing you know -.-

Also App-tans need consistency check before we go further into that.
You missed WE-tan, but as she's an enigma as a character we'll take her later.

oh no no!... I talking for technique as next ^^, mmm:
question 1: have the value for specific OS-tans
question 2: have the value for specific OS-tans (may be or not the same OS-tan that first question ^^)
question n...
then is: just the suitable questions and answers ^^ (and funny too, OK =w=?)... are you on right that one interminable quiz is bored ^^...

because are really a lot TwT...
mmm...
OS quiz (may be just one little large quiz oO?), Apps quiz, Malware/errors quiz...
So there will be more quizzes?
Which OS-tan are you?
Which App-tan are you?
etc...
Sounds pretty good. Let's do the OS-tan first.
errrr...
Do you eat a lot?
Do you work slowly?
Do you know what E=MC^2 means?
These questions = awesome ?
Hmm...somewhat too generic.
I more liek the "xxxxx situation, what do you do?" type of question. Gives more range on stuff. Y/N things just bore me ->-
mmm, good point, not just yes/no oO...
Wow, I missed a lot.
Yeah, separating the Quizzes is good, XXXXX situation good.
So can we make the Quiz/zes now?
Those looked like Y/N questions but I wanted to make different kind of answers. e.o
So errm.. yes let's start. What should be the first question? Hmmm....
How do you eat a popsicle? o_O I know there's a comic strip of it somewhere.
The overlord delivers.

Maybe that is a weird question to start with...
Added after 1 minutes: Brain freeze is painful
no, it's GLORIOUS. -w-
And yes, it might be wise to start off with something generic, like the good 'ol morning question.
(It is 8AM! (How) do you wake up?)
Added after 1 minutes:
also fixed the image, pb hosted now.
Hmmm if that's the question then... I have no idea how any of the OS-tans wake up. O-o
Oi, oi.
Saseko wouldn't wake up until 9, and then she'd go eat fuckloads of meat for breakfast, then she'd go to sleep again. Or something.
ME would wake up at 8, on the second, and halfway through dressing herself she'd FREEZE and remain so until noon.
Homeko would still be up, but Homeo would force her to go to sleep with his wiles and she'd have sweet yaoi dreams until 3pm.
2k always goes up an hour early, to get some extra paperwork done. Her morning RAGE kicks in at 8, prepare for asswhopping.
95 rises with the sun. She makes breakfast. Don't ask, you don't want to be skewered.
ETC, ETC.
Pffft how about me, I wake up at 5:30 A.M.
Well, that's sorta 95-ish, I'd say.
Unless you're like me and live way up north and it's winter so the sun doesn't rise until 10am...
I'm guessing XP would rise whenever someone bothered to wake her, then spend 30 minutes getting dressed, remembers that she could sleep in this morning, then goes back to sleep, with a chip packet under one arm.
I'm living in the... what's the word... hmm.. the place-where-there-is-no-winter?
lol XP
Ahhh crap I woke up at 9 today. Nvr fear, I can skip school whenever I want for this last 2 months of schooling. xD
Tropics
Tropics? I'm not sure..
Crap again I slept from 1:50 to 5:30 pm today. o_O No wonder I got Saseko. And to top that off I ate 2 packets of instant noodles.
IN A ROW
You are XP-tan, arn't you?
Naaah that's probably because I slept at 2 AM. And I could even solve a rubik's cube in 30 seconds.
But yes, sometimes I do think like that.
Edit: OHSHT the quiz.
Now let's set the attraction range 0 till 10 or -5 to 5? or -10 to 10 etc etc.
I could tell you about most of the OS-tans in the secondary list on the previous page. These descriptions and a few of these characters are only fanon but here we go:
95 OSR 2.1-tan [fanon only]: A calm, polite, friendly and forward-thinking OS-tan who is an old-fashioned inventor... who fails miserably at her job. She lives on her own.
95 OSR 2.5-tan [fanon only]: Cheerful, hot-blooded and very competitive.
97-tan: Cheerful and hot-headed, but lacks self-confidence, has a 'Napoleon Complex' (that is she's insecure about being short and acts tough to compensate).
Odyssey-tan and Neptune-tan don't seem to have defined personalities but seem to be stoic and keep to themselves.
Mac OSX Tiger-tan: Bold, charismatic, energetic, a great leader but prone to power struggles. She tends not to take criticism well from her peers.
Mac OSX Cheetah-tan: Very tough, mischievous, and perverted but clumsy and lacks self-confidence.
Mac OSX Snow Leopard-tan: Still not sure.
Linspire-tan: A Windows fangirl who really wants to fit in and be accepted by her peers, but she is an outcast among the Windows-tans, most of the Unix-tans and the more conservative Linux-tans. :(
wiiiin wiiiiiiiiiiin @¬@...
where is the quiiiiz @w@...
can be opened a new thread to talk about the new quizes owO??? (when finished can be posted here ^^)... this because this thread is about solve quizes ^^, still time that I post a reply asking about backup and new data, gomen gomen TwT...
first question is OK (I awake at 9:00 am and eat a "little" breakfast, btw =w= XP )
Aurora, thank for data ^^ (we need more data, we need more data; we need to make a quizes, we need to make a quizes =w=)...
Good call. Then make new threads for the quiz-making, folks.
I'll do it if I can, hang on...

CONGRATULATIONS!
You are Slackware Linux. You are the brightest among your peers, but are often mistaken as insane. Your elegant solutions to problems often take a little longer, but require much less effort to complete.
That is soo me since I do that a lot, also people don't really understand what I am talking about or I make some really removed topics as a tangent.

Are you also highly attracted to Unix-tans? ;P (Weird Slackware-tan reference).

How can I do this since the link is down? ;030
We're working on it. ;026
At least, we appear to be working on it.
the original site is down, but I'm OS/2 warp
^ This automatically makes you full of WIN.
BTW, can you be easier to install? plz? ;____;
Yes, Bella. I know how hard it is to install OS/2. But worth it in the end!
It sure is :D Good stuff are worth waiting for
Alright...Im GNU\Hurd. The OS-tan link was dead...I only took the bbspot one.
Despite the OS-Tan link being down, I took the other one, and got Windows 95. No bother there. 95 was the first OS I used as well.
I can't get the quizzes to work...
Let's see ... oh, good, it's not asking me to sign up for some ridiculous "offers" ... ah, here we go. I'm ... Amiga?
... wait, I gotta go Wiki that one. Last time I heard anything about Amiga, it was a PVP strip about Brent's choice of computers -- years ago.
I have taken it several times, and every time it's giving me some useless version of Leen-ucks.

I guess I can't really give a result, since it's not too legit if you have to try every different combination just to see if Windows is even on there.
