You've got good will power TGM. I used to wait until a chapter was done, until one day I thought "Wellll, what harm will one little 20% of a chapter do?".

Never read a full chapter since. :( Remind me never to try "one little cigarette". :roll:

lol Same here, Symp. I never liked being stuck on a cliffhanging moment within the chapter, but I started reading partial completed chapters anyway.

I swore I'd never drink alcohol till I turned 21. That probably would have been the case, had I not been the last of all my friends to turn 21.

Well sometimes you have no choice. Waiting for shadow or editor to be completed is going to take a very long time, since each of them are around 70 pages in Microsoft Word text, and when you translate them to English, it's usually longer, so I'll say that each of them will be about 80 pages in Times New Roman Font size 12.

WTF you talking about? :shock:

Firstly, as someone above said, the title in Japanese is エンドレスエイト "Endoresu Eito", NOT "Endoresu Naito".

Secondly, the story concerns an endless time loop, and since the Arabic number 8 resembles the symbol for "infinity", the title is fitting.

This matter is now closed, moving on...
