Looks like you need to change to GoFundMe.

@Weng
Fuck you! I give money back
should be a Kickstarter campaign with a ridiculous high goal. That way, @Lorne-Kates can give money back to all the people!Filed Under: Unless he reaches his goal in which case he will become a scammer!

@Lorne-Kates
Looks like you need to change to GoFundMe.I got the other monies from PayPal. But IndiePooPoo kept spamming me with "omg we can't disburse ur monies gimme bank info".
So I did. Except since I live in North America, finding out banking info is literally impossible. You need branch numbers and bank numbers and account numbers and routing numbers and more.
I assume one of the ones I typed in didn't work. Fuck it, whatever. I'm sure I would have been hit with a $10 "banks are incompetent shitheads who are getting their asses kicked by Paypal" fee for moving $1.
-
@Lorne-Kates Huh. I thought I'd paid PayPal. Whatever.
And yeah, a $1 wire transfer is a $-24 wire transfer at my bank, which has notoriously low fees.

I literally don't know how any of this shit works. Neither do the people who run these sites, so it all balances out.
It's a good thing I'm not actually dependent on getting $20 for $20, because-- fees. Fees everywhere.

Yeah, the Canadian system is pretty confusing. There are two forms of routing numbers in use: The MICR (Transit) number used for cheques is the five digit branch number followed by the three digit institution number. The EFT number, used for direct deposits and wire transfers, is a zero followed by the institution number and then the branch number.
I've had wires fail unless I prepended the account number with a branch number. I suspect SWIFT processing is a bundle of WTF.

Based on their open loop AML stuff, probably.

I choose to pronounce the lojban letter y'y correctly.
With all the letters pronounced how they would be in lojban (including h, which is capital '), that ends up being said like this:
lorneh kahtehhs spooreeohoohs ahpohstrohp-hehhs
-
By the way, the correct way to phonetically spell @Lorne-Kates in lojban is
lornkeits.
The more useless lojban you know

It's astoundingly similar to Polish! Wait! It's the same as in Polish! Is lojban simply rebranded Polish? Huh, ? Robiłeś nas w chuja?

Glad to see that IndieGoGo does at least send some of the money it is supposed to, and that it isn't a scam after all!

To German as well, except that we pronounce "ei" a bit differently. Apparently, double vowels are pronounced as in Italian in Lojban, i.e. each vowel is pronounced separately?
-

@kt_ said in Lorne Kate's just gave me money!:
łśw
those aren't lojban letters!
W is not a lojban letter? Which ones do you use, l, o, j, b, a and n only? What a racist language!

Ich habe keine lust?

@kt_ Yup. It's pronounced as a + i, not e + i.

I love that you can't find that information, and you can't VERIFY that information either.

@kt_ Yup. It's pronounced as a + i, not e + i.
The way I kept German ei vs. ie straight was by remembering that the first letter is basically silent and the second makes a long vowel sound.
-
That's the same mnemonic I use, with the caveat that
@anotherusername said in Lorne Kate's just gave me money!:long vowel sound
refers to the way "long" is used in English phonology (an entirely different sound than a short vowel), as opposed to other languages, where it denotes a vowel that literally has a longer duration.
-

Of course. That goes without saying.
I thought about giving some examples, but it's probably easier if you just go on Google Translate, select German as the input language, type words with ie or ei, and then click the icon to hear the difference in pronunciation.
