Sweet Honey

In kana according to TINC, visunavi and VKDB, the name ‘TINC ‘ is written as テインク (te-i-n-ku) or “tink” in the English form. They call their fans ティンカー  ( teinkaa) or tincers  pronounced “tinkers” in it’s English form.

This is a simple thing I would think.

TINC is not pronounced as tee-ai-en-shi  or written as テエアイエンシ, as people on livejournal seem to think it is.  What is wrong with livejournal people? I know that it is a cesspool of stupidity, but the people posting this stuff are the so-called ‘intelligent’ fans, the ones who seem to know every single detail. Isn’t this a rather important one?

Even the TINC livejournal community, Haru no Uta, states (quite clearly) that it is pronounced as “tink”. Do I need to publish my merumaga emails from them where it clearly states ”tink” and “tinkers”? This is the second time I’ve seen this in a matter of days, the first post was from another blog (who I won’t name because I respect them) where they were talking about stupid name changes (and they got TINC’s name wrong in the post). The first time didn’t bother me so much because everyone makes mistakes you know? And it was clearly just a mistake.

But this livejournal post… Ohhh…  

Now this livejounal post I just discovered is from last March, but this information was already posted in Haru no Uta in December of 2006! Which is four or so months before. And these are the jerk jrock fans who think they’re better than everyone who were posting this info. Also, the person (who was helping another person) got serveral other things about them wrong… like — Shelly Trip Realize did not have a demotape named lies that they released in 2002. They have a giveaway single named Lie!! released in may of 2003.

It really wouldn’t be possible for Sarino to be in Shelly Trip Realize in 2002 since he was in Aioria, and Kenta was in As’REAL in 2002. Takuma was in Syndrome at the time too. Kikasa was in Due’le Quartz in 2002, but they also broke up sometime in the middle of 2002.

And let us not forget that Shelly Trip Realize debuted as a live band with no releases at the Kreis label event on March 31st 2003. It’s doubtful that the band could have formed much before Jan. of 2003 (and if I recall correctly, they did form in Jan.). Supposedly Yukiya matched them up much the way Kisaki helped Riku form Chariots.

Oooo…. I’m so angry!

Regardless, They’re TINC (as in “TINKer bell”). Got it?

And because I’m so angry about this, here’s the merumaga email about the name change that I got December 11 2006, http://www.hikari-shinji.net/hikari/tincers.JPG .
