| switchgirl_ | anyone watching the match England Vs USA? (we're so ganna whoop ya :P ) anyone watching it on twitter? and are youtube streaming it? :s | 20:02 |
|---|---|---|
| JanC | switchgirl_: Belgian TV are streaming it ;) | 20:03 |
| IdleOne | watching it o/ | 20:03 |
| JanC | (with commentary in Dutch) | 20:03 |
| Pendulum | I'm also watching (not online) | 20:03 |
| JanC | the US doesn't play too bad BTW (e.g. their keeper) | 20:04 |
| switchgirl_ | JanC, i know | 20:04 |
| switchgirl_ | JanC, i used to live near Whitehaven.... still at war with the republic of america | 20:05 |
| switchgirl_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitehaven#History | 20:06 |
| JanC | switchgirl_: I think that's a bit silly ;) | 20:06 |
| JanC | England has more players with high level experience, so in theory they have the advantage | 20:07 |
| switchgirl_ | JanC, behind the irc/tcp/ip/ monitor i am smiling and laughing at myself | 20:07 |
| switchgirl_ | JanC, we invented many games (including baseball) | 20:07 |
| switchgirl_ | i'm glad it brings people together | 20:07 |
| switchgirl_ | the Ubuntu is strong with people :) | 20:08 |
| JanC | I'm not sure who invented baseball really... ;) | 20:08 |
| JanC | according to wikipedia, the oldest mention of a similar game was played in France ;) | 20:10 |
| JanC | woops 1-1 | 20:11 |
| JanC | seems like one of the US team's strengths is the England team's weakness (the keeper...) | 20:12 |
| Pendulum | that's gotta feel vindicating for Dempsey who gets really dumped on by Americans | 20:12 |
| switchgirl_ | wikipedia is wrong i asked my friend - a Dr in History | 20:17 |
| JanC | switchgirl_: wikipedia makes clear it's a game that bears some similarities to baseball, it wasn't baseball of course | 20:18 |
| JanC | Pendulum: it was a lucky goal really, but maybe he deserves the luck ☺ | 20:21 |
| Pendulum | JanC: yep, totally a lucky goal. but a goal nonetheless. | 20:22 |
| JanC | for the tournament it doesn't matter of course | 20:23 |
| JanC | there is a keeper in the TV-studio here in Belgium who talks about how it must feel to be that keeper making that mistake... | 20:26 |
| pleia2 | switchgirl_: I invited you to -women (so this conversation can go there ;)) | 20:27 |
| JanC | yeah, maybe that's a good idea | 20:27 |
| JanC | ;) | 20:27 |
| pleia2 | I mentioned this in the other channel but not here - we're working with the sysadmins regarding the wiki, looks like they'll be moving it to another server so a couple of us can have shell access to it \o/ | 20:28 |
| pleia2 | which means we have more control - like to lock down the whole thing - than regular web-based wiki admins have | 20:29 |
| pleia2 | plus we'll be able to read access logs | 20:29 |
| pleia2 | and still, if you see something that needs to be changed until this is sorted, just nudge me, elky or akgraner (I'm also willing to add more admins) | 20:29 |
| JanC | switchgirl_: please join #ubuntu-women ☺ | 20:33 |
