Ask The Kana Thread
 

So, I figured since I'm getting a lot of messages and PMs about random things. I figured I could answer a few of those questions here. Try to keep them related to the show or the website if need be. I don't mind random-ness, but would appreciate legitimate questions. I'll humor you though if need be.

So, what would you like to ask Kanashimi?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Are you any good at bowling?

How many times have you won cosplaying awards?

What's the worst injury you've had to date?

Can I come out of the cage now?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Are you gonna answer all those random questions??

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

What is a man?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

It depends actually... I'm a mental bowler, so if the bumpers are up I always go completely straight and if they are down, I always fail. I don't actually enjoy bowling all that much, but yeah.


Zero. I don't like entering cosplaying contests. The reason I cosplay isn't to be judged, but to have fun and show off my creations. Maybe in the future, but competing is a big task and can take a whole day or two of a convention. Since I've always volunteered or worked during a convention I don't have the time to spend in a competition room.

Injury...? Hrm... none?

Hahahaha! No.

Yup.

The opposite of a woman.

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Will Kana every tell EagleEyes?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

:veryno:

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

My question is, why did you waste such a sweet set up?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

While I could have done a sexual innuendo or some sort of joke insulting men in general, I was too busy to come up with anything clever and knew I'd forget to respond tomorrow. Also, I have a feeling offending Oni might be bad as he is one of our reviewers. In the future though, I'll do my best to insult men of all class and culture. :awesome:

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Why can I see colours?

*ahem*

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

If you had the chance to make an anime, you have 12 episodes, what would it be about and what would the theme be? would it be suspense? drama? Shoujo? Shonen? etc

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

When do we Attack?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

I actually have a serious question, sorry to kill the mood everyone.

I'm just wondering what software you happen to be using while DJing?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

I control your mind, and I wanted to make you see colors in a world full of black and white. Mawahaha.

Mmm... I had to think on this for a little bit, but I think if I made an anime right nowit would consist of our mascot, Brie. I can see her being this impressive singer and dancing in a sort of club, loved by all. Of course, with all the popularity, the club (91.8 The Fan) needs another person entertaining. So they hire a turn-table DJ who would be male. I can see Brie and this male DJ being rivals at first since they both want the spotlight, but their hate turns to possible romance. Also, there's some iStalk news in there, too.

We attacked on the 3rd, did you not get the memo?

Wonderful! I encourage more serious questions.

The software we use is called SAM Broadcaster, I'm unable to get into how we use it or how many computers we go through. The database of music can be accessed by any of our DJs, but I can't specify as to how. SAM Broadcaster can mix the songs together, use virtual cables, catch our voices, play songs based on ratings, use a request system, and various other things. As such, there are a lot of endless possiblities and was definately the best choice out there for us.

That's why very shortly we'll have a request system in place as well as a calling board system. So keep looking for those!

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Whats your favorite flavored ice cream?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Chocolate chip cookie dough. I use to work in an ice cream place, so I know how to mix and match some mean sundaes, yahoo~

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Hey Kana, I have a question.

Why is it that absolutely no one has ever played the Castlevania series?

On the side, why is it that people get fed up on the internet? It's just the internet, isn't it Kana?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Kana, I have a question (serious one, I promise).
How come my forum posts have suddenly gone down?
Is it because you moved one of my threads? *edit- well not you specifically, but forum staff in general XD*

annnnd just because I watched Community Channel today~
What is your oldest and most favouritest (yeah, that's a word) toy?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

My serious question is...How hard is it to pick up the skill of running a radio station and knowing the inner workings of your system? When you get new DJs, do you teach them how to work the system?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

It is probably a delete of one of your posts. Anything not on topic I do a soft delete, and state the reason as to why. So if its only gone down one or two posts, that's probably why. Don't worry too much, if there's anything major that you do on the forums we'll send you a PM.

My favorite toy... mmm, Bop-It. Though now that I think about it, I realize my cousin has had mine for like a year. I liked the classic one, not the round weird-o ones. Haha.

It's not that hard actually, the hardest part is making a show for yourself. We give our DJs fee reigns to decide what would be neat on their show and what to talk about. The trick is having the charismatic personality and to attract people to keep listening.

Program wise, it isn't that hard. We do teach them how to use the program, mostly through videos and if they have questions we're usually with them their first few times on the station. Luckily all of our current DJs were with us before we started, and so we all trained from the ground up. For the new DJs we're looking at, we will be beside them to teach them.

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Sorry for answering this one but AU CONTRIE ive played all ths Castelvenia series even the bad one like x for the ps1 T_T

Re: Ask The Kana Thread

People will have emotions, look inside your heart for your own. xP

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Kana what kind of pokemon are you? How do you do the things you do? Do you have a heart thats true? What kind of pokemon are you?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Where did you get your username from (or what inspired it)?

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

She is naturally sad? :yurp:

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

I'm a Kana-mon, which means I'm better than a Pokemon and no Pokeball can contain me. So thaaaar!


I used basically a lame Japanese to English dictionary on the internet when I was like nine, and I liked the sound of Kanashimi. It wasn't a name I was originally going to adapt for myself since the actual meaning is sadness, sorrow, or despair. I'm not that emo-tastic of a person, so it wasn't that it fit me so much that I liked how it sounded.

It was originally me just searching for neato names for roleplaying characters, but I solely adapted it over time. When I started using it, Kanashimi was never taken... now... not so much. If it is, I usually go by the name of Selinya.

On the plus side, the name is from a lot of songs. :D

Not really.

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

I always ask this to anyone I meet from Vegas,

Were you born in Vegas? It's funny, I've been to Vegas and talked to a bunch of different people, and I always end up asking them where they are from because more often then not, they aren't actually from Vegas.

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

I was actually, I was born at the Sunrise Hospital I think it is. I lived in Laughlin temporarily, but found myself back in Vegas.

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Do u usually go to cons?? and if so do u cos-play?? and if so what as??

Re: Ask The Kana Thread
 

Actually, I'm usually the one doing interviews at conventions in cosplay. Go to the main page of 91.8 The Fan > Categories (in the side bar) > and then Conventions. I'll be posting all my cosplay stuff here when I get the spare time: http://www.kanashimi-network.com/

My posing is very amateur as you can tell. I only weight about 110 LBs, but a lot of the time I end up looking fatter in my pictures, haha.


I'm also spotted in a few of our cosplay galleries on the site.

This also makes up, in spades, for the wrong answer of what a man is.
