[meager silo]

[meager silo]

Not as far as you are. I’m fairly busy, but I do have the time to do at least 1 lesson a day

[fringe void]

oh man, you are going to hate nrowegian when you get here, - a norwegian from hundvåg

[still tapir]

I can at least say what's my name and count to ten 😂

[fringe void]

But is that bokmål or nynorsk?

[kind orbit]

Navnet mitt er ____

[steel pebble]

Just started Norwegian Duolingo there because of ye and one of the voice actors has such a northern Irish accent but in Norwegian lmao

[ashen laurel]

My english teacher in higschool was irish

[steel pebble]

How understandable were they?

[ashen laurel]

He didnt have an accent, he lived alot of his life in northern england i think so his avcent got wattred down

[steel pebble]

ah that's fair 😅

[ashen laurel]

But you dont really have to speak in Norway, we usually stay quite most of the time(:

[steel pebble]

Oh don't worry, I'll talk to you 😉 (I don't shut up)

[ashen laurel]

Yeah you will, but most of us will sit in silence and communicate telepaticly(:

[steel pebble]

Mind Flayer type behaviour

[ashen laurel]

Ive told you to much...

[still tapir]

I have no Idea. Are there different types of Norwegian?

[ashen laurel]

Normal and føkked

[meager silo]

Bokmål is the course duolingo has

[ashen laurel]

Normal in other words

[ashen laurel]

funny how i started the longest thread on the server

[heady ember]

I've tried to lean some Norwegian didn't go to plan lol Google translate is goin to be my friend 😂😅

I can hardly speak irish lmao

[reef anvil]

Am I right in assuming most people will just talk English like at the WSJ?

[ashen laurel]

No

[kind orbit]

You have to learn norwegian basically

They Are very backwards in Norway and dont speak any other languages well

[ashen laurel]

Comes from the danish

Danish people dont even know their own language

[kind orbit]

yes we do

you invent "dialects" because nobody can agree on how to speak norwegian

[ashen laurel]

We have dialects because one language became to easy(:

[kind orbit]

yet you still say danish is too complicated

[ashen laurel]

No no no, we understand it. It just sounds horrible

[kind orbit]

Kamelåså

also why dont you just accept that you speak highland danish

[meager silo]

We have formed our patrols yesterday

[meager silo]

is this the danish word for 'bs'? xd

[kind orbit]

no lol

[ashen laurel]

Danish is potato norwegian

[kind orbit]

Norwegians Are literally hillbilly danes with oil

[meager silo]

We made our patrols last sunday

And we have been designing a group logo

[kind orbit]

Our registration doesnt close till december lol

[meager silo]

We think it’s neat

[kind orbit]

Rubberduck patrol?

[meager silo]

Yep

[kind orbit]

Im a master at dutch

[ashen laurel]

"Bade and"?

[kind orbit]

yes

[reef anvil]

I am dutch as well, but i don't know my patrol becouse i couldn't attend the meating

[meager silo]

I hope you have sent an e-mail to the organisation?

[still tapir]

I don't know my patrol ether but I haven't got my final email with the acceptance 👀

[meager silo]

Are you in the whatsapp group with all the Dutch participants?

[reef anvil]

Yes

[fringe void]

[reef anvil]

[uncut rose]

Server can’t be found

[sacred crane]

[kind orbit]

I Can access it

[uncut rose]

I think it was just a temporary issue on my side

It works again

[meager silo]

Custom badges arrived!

[iron owl]

Nice

[heady ember]

Nice

Must be on the look out for ya then lol 😆

[still tapir]

I want one of these, they look so good and funny 😆

[carmine cloud]

Yeah I want one too. Our name is 'Zwätschge' Patrol which means Plum Patrol

[meager silo]

That means you guys have got to find me on roverway

[heady ember]

@meager silo no problem I'll be waving a irish neckerchief about 😂

[still tapir]

Is there any German here?

[quiet matrix]

nice, we ordered custom neckers

still working on custom badges

[cerulean river]

i wanted to go to roverway 2024 but was too late it was already full

[still tapir]

I'm in!!

[gaunt drift]

We‘re still doing the desings for neckers, badges, hoodies and maby something else

Any ideas?

[ashen laurel]

Have a picture of a mountain

[fallen path]

I wanna go with a group of friends from Germany. It would be nice to meet some of you there. Wish you all fun and a great time there.

[kind orbit]

this sucks

[bold isle]

Yes I’m german hello😂

[ashen laurel]

Im sorry

[kind orbit]

so annoying

[neat viper]

What sucks?

[kind orbit]

i cant come anyway

cuz of money

one of our silos collapsed due to the strong winds

so my parents had to recall the money

and i dont have 12k dkk lying around

but luckily i might be going to Kisc again, since my travel insurance agreed to give me a new trip there

but ill be at roverway in spirit

[still tapir]

Endlich, die erste hier die ich treffe 😂

[bold isle]

Oh wow😂

Dann freue ich mich schon drauf dich beim Roverway zu sehen 😂

[gaunt drift]

we've got a mountain with a cervelat (swiss sausage) as a logo now

[quiet matrix]

Custom bracelets?

[gaunt drift]

uu very good idea in the jamb they were very popular

[still tapir]

Yesss, das muss sein :)

[gaunt drift]

Dann sieht mann sich da vielleicht

[still tapir]

Hey noch ein Deutscher 😃

[gaunt drift]

Schweizer

[heady ember]

Need a rover patrol name for out patrol goin to roverway was told alot of others are using roverway theme any suggestions would be great as we don't no lol

[kind orbit]

rubber ducks

[heady ember]

Have one called that lol@kind orbit

[kind orbit]

damn

BP on ice

is a good patrol name

[heady ember]

Yeah

[ashen laurel]

What country are you from?

[heady ember]

@ashen laurel ierland

[ashen laurel]

Guiness World of Rovers?

[heady ember]

That's a good one

[meager silo]

Nope. Nope. That one is already taken by us

A translation of it is our name

[kind orbit]

I know

[carmine cloud]

our patrol name is 'Zwätschge' Patrol which means Plum patrol in swiss german

[meager silo]

@quiet matrix Palingboeren?
Ik ben goed bevriend met degene in jullie groep die jullie logo ontworpen heeft

your original name did not quite live up to the standards of scouting... xd

I have seen this part of the design process

[quiet matrix]

valt mee

[quiet matrix]

niceee

[heady ember]

I think we are looking at names of God's in ierland or odin the god of war in Norway 😂

[kind orbit]

Odin isnt the only war god in Norse mythology

Theres Also Tyr, Freja and Frej

[heady ember]

I see

[gaunt drift]

Are there any official pictures of badges or neckers for the roverway?

[uncut rose]

The Dutch contingent had to tell to everyone who’s under 18 on the first day of roverway that they can’t go

[kind orbit]

Why?

[reef anvil]

Because the maximum amount of participants has been reduced by the organisation

[uncut rose]

With that said, I will unfortunately not be participating in roverway

[neat viper]

Yeah I cant go anymore :(

[meager silo]

Yep. Half my patrol can’t go now

[neat kestrel]

Absolutely gutted 😢

[kind orbit]

is it cuz of the norwegian's bad planning or because of the dutch's bad planning?

[silver echo]

Norwegians

[ashen laurel]

Every country has a set amount for their contigent, the Dutch had overfilled theirs.

[silver echo]

No it's every contingent over 96ppl

[meager silo]

The dutch have submitted the amount of attendees at the beginning of the year

[uncut rose]

Some countries only just submitted their amount of attendees, which put it over the max

[daring dew]

but it isnt also that harder to make it bigger

[kind orbit]

Our registration has been open up untill a couple days ago

But theres only 40 People there

[ashen laurel]

Is the wrong sode of Norway, in our area we at planing the Norwegian Jambore for 3x as many

[daring dew]

from the advertisement in "ung i norden" they were talking about using (including activities) around 1.5x bigger than the usa jamboree area

[kind orbit]

the area that roverway is to be held in is not that big

[wispy vortex]

I’ll be 18 in April but I still can’t go

[atomic agate]

Hello i well aslo be i don't now Nothing more but they will tell as soon

[quiet matrix]

this is so sad

[heady ember]

I feel for anyone who's effected

[carmine cloud]

Half my Patrol cant go 57 Participants and 20 Patrol Leaders had to go. we had time to unsubscribe for two weeks and the rest was drawn (About 35). Some PL changed to IST. Now the Swiss Contingent started to form new Patrols via the Internet.

[heady ember]

@carmine cloud how many participants did you have

In total ur contingent had

[atomic agate]

I learned the group where I will be and we will see the path

[carmine cloud]

Over 200

[ivory gorge]

@carmine cloud has leveled up! (9 ➜ 10)

[fringe void]

thats more than the norwegian continent even

[ashen laurel]

Tror vi lå på sånn to fem?

[fringe void]

Mener det e en null null jeg har fått vite

[craggy pivot]

Well guess who's not going to roverway anymore

[atomic agate]

Why

[craggy pivot]

Too many uk people

So now I'm going to the iceland jamboree

[atomic agate]

No it was 1.000 to many in total

10 people left from the Greek group

I am sorry to hear this

[craggy pivot]

Well the uk halfed their contingent

[ivory gorge]

@craggy pivot has leveled up! (5 ➜ 6)

[atomic agate]

Oh

[silver echo]

is that what they gave as alternative or was that your own move

[craggy pivot]

It was an unofficial alternative because our county commissioner for international was running roverway, but he's also iceland ist. So he said that was an option if u want, but none of the other counties knew about it

[silver echo]

Ah I see, interesting

[steel pebble]

I'm also not going RIP. They didn't have to downsize the irish contingent like we feared but I was interviewing for an internship and the payment deadline was in the middle of that process. My choices were to either pay €900 and then lose it if I got the internship so I just pulled out instead F

[atomic agate]

😢

[heady ember]

@steel pebble we probably were in the same patrol @steel pebble lol

Meli

Was mine

Patrol

[steel pebble]

Yeah lmao that was me 🤣

I think you mentioned DST when we were chatting about the cuts

[heady ember]

Whos DST

Lol

@steel pebble

Ah ok yeah I know lmao took me a minute lol

[steel pebble]

✌️😁

[sacred crane]

Yeah the cuts were tough, I’m still in tho

Anyone got any ideas as to what paths you want to go on?

[atomic agate]

no in the greek teams we have to pick like this

and they will chose for us

[meager silo]

Same here

but we had to assign them our top 4 activities

Accessibility-wise: we could not submit our accessibility needs. Which is kind of dumb

They did note that it is a huge plus for our patrol if it has "access to quiet room", in the same way as they mention that on the list of paths on the roverway website

[meager silo]

Visiting Rypetoppen adventure park looks really cool imo

[silver echo]

for roverway do participant-age people plan out the paths?

[sacred crane]

The paths are all planned by Norway, idk how probably some leaders there

[sacred crane]

As a (sub)contingent we’re doing that as well (Scotland not all of uk)

[silver echo]

ah I see, as moot paths are done by a small percentage of participants, which I only recently learnt

[atomic agate]

Oh ok

[fringe void]

I recommend the Refugee path, I hiked it with 23 kg gear and a rifle last year, it's awesome. The many sailing paths are also nice.

[urban owl]

It depends on the path. Some are made by leaders, some by rovers in Norway. Some is run by Wagggs and wosm. We also have some paths in Denmark and Sweden. Roverway will give out paths with the feedbak from the forms on how yor patrole can manage the diffent hikes. We need to know that you all can handle them (I´m In the planning team, but not in paths but in MarCom)☺️

[sacred crane]

Oooo cool

I just had a meeting today w my patrol about paths

Very excited!

They look soo cool!

[kind orbit]

wheres the paths in denmark??

[urban owl]

Don’t know exactly. Don’t have all the information since I’m not in the path department.

[kind orbit]

okay

[ashen laurel]

in Molbo

[kind orbit]

Mols?

[ashen laurel]

der Molboene bo

[kind orbit]

Thats Mols

En Molbo er en person fra Mols

[ashen laurel]

ah ok, din Molbo

[kind orbit]

Jeg er ikke molbo faen

jeg er jyde

[modern stirrup]

Hell yea

[sacred crane]

Omg I can actually kinda understand the Norwegian/danish!

My duolingo paid off

:D

[kind orbit]

What did you understand

[ashen laurel]

Det er faen meg bra

[fallen path]

I just started learning Norwegian a few days ago.

[meager silo]

Norsk er ikke vanskelig å lære

[kind orbit]

Nej, ikke hvis du kan snakke dansk

[fallen path]

well. we´ll see, how it will work out for the roverway.

[ivory gorge]

@fallen path has leveled up! (0 ➜ 1)

[modern stirrup]

Ég gat skilið þetta

Omg so coowl :0

[meager silo]

Jeg snakker ikke islandsk :/

[modern stirrup]

Afhverju ekki

[meager silo]

We. Got. Neckers.

[kind orbit]

rubberducks?

[meager silo]

Close enough

We used to be named “badeendjes” —> rubber (bath) ducks

Now were named “nordic duck fusion”

[sacred crane]

OMG I LOVE THEM

[heady ember]

Whats summer wether like out in norway

[kind orbit]

where in norway are we talking?

[meager silo]

Stavanger

[kind orbit]

Mild temperatures (average of 16 degrees in june) and barely any rain from what i Can tell

And the Sun is up for like 16 hours

If not even more

[fringe void]

More like 23 degrees, but I betcha we will have rain the entire week

[kind orbit]

i always thought norway was a dry country

[meager silo]

Depends on what side of the mountains you are probably

[heady ember]

I see

[ivory gorge]

@heady ember has leveled up! (5 ➜ 6)

[ashen laurel]

Like -30

[carmine cloud]

This is the Logo of the Swiss contingent. It will be on the batches we recive.

[modern stirrup]

Noicee

[fallen path]

Looks great. At the beginning of the year I made a necker myself with tigerducks. 🙂

[dull cloud]

I also will be participating

[atomic agate]

my path is out i will got o Roros

[ashen laurel]

I want one

[ornate charm]

Does anyone have any idea when UK paths are being released?

[meager silo]

Paths should be know already

I know mine

Camp 773 is mine

[ornate charm]

The UK are being kinda slow with it

[ashen laurel]

I know them;)

[pearl pike]

we should know within the next 2 weeks i think... theres a roverway roundup tomorrow if you havent seen

[ornate charm]

damn rlly??

[ornate charm]

yeah thats what im hoping

[pearl pike]

they said they started "handing them out" since last wednesday

[ashen laurel]

My friend is on the path team and told me

[pearl pike]

what patrol you in

[ornate charm]

Im not sure, ill check

[ornate charm]

ah thats awesome

[pearl pike]

reminder to any uk roverway participants theres a roverway roundup tonight!!

[heady ember]

Paths were sent out to to the contingents 17th of March

But probably take time foe them to release it to participants

[pearl pike]

they explained to us that they had to send some back cos they didnt match the accessibity requirements of some patrols, and that "in the spirit of fairness" they want to release all of the paths at the same time for the contingent. something like that

[ashen laurel]

But its not a competiton?

[pearl pike]

Who knows lol

[heady ember]

Oh I'm just back from my contingent gathering camp so happy I got my neckerchief

[pearl pike]

thats sick, i want one like that now!!

update for UK participants - updated kitlist has dropped: https://prod-cms.scouts.org.uk/media/tznbzzmh/20240407-kit-list.pdf

[heady ember]

@pearl pike I'll have a few to swap over there just gota find me 😂

[pearl pike]

ik i already have spare ukc and spare patrol neckers :)

[heady ember]

Nice

[inland elk]

anybody on path SV02?

[heady ember]

Sv02?

What the name of it

I'm on a path in Sweden

@inland elk

Sk01

[inland elk]

horve 2

[meager silo]

SV07

[pearl pike]

Still not been told our paths

[gaunt drift]

I've got SØ03

[heady ember]

@pearl pike who are u with ?

[pearl pike]

Wdym? Contingent?

[heady ember]

Yea

@pearl pike

[pearl pike]

UK contingent. Patrol 31

[pearl pike]

ok no we were told yesterday we wont find out our paths till MAY

[ornate charm]

what!

where did you hear that????

[pearl pike]

That's what our pl was told at pl academy

[meager silo]

tf

You need to know where to travel to

[pearl pike]

Yeah lol it's really disorganised

[heady ember]

3 months to find out what u have rip

Should be easy for them to sort out cuz the steering committee tells what patrol is were dose it not. literally just copy and paste it to the patrols when contingents find out and are happy with it as there's a short time for patrols to swap path if there is any need for them to

@pearl pike that's crazy

[pearl pike]

its so annoying

[ornate charm]

thats mad

[meager silo]

More paths are visible on the website

I now know more details about mine

[ornate charm]

thats awesome

my PL told us 1st of may is when wed likely get ours :/

[meager silo]

i've also arranged flight tickets with 3 of my other patrol members

[pearl pike]

Ugh I can't with the wait. We were joking that everyone else is gonna have fun while we are stuck with colouring or something cos everything else is 'too dangerous ' and doesn't 'meet the risk assessment '

[ornate charm]

Hahahaha, thats probably on the table

[ashen laurel]

Im with what seems to be two UK contigents?

And yes my path seems to be not so dangarous

[pearl pike]

Oh that's cool, you don't have unit numbers do you?

[ashen laurel]

I could ask

[carmine cloud]

Is somebody in the ALL IN path? It's the one where we go to a Norwegian scout camp.

[ornate charm]

Woahhhhh

🙏

[still tapir]

Same here!

[meager silo]

Heyyy nice

I’m in patrol Nordic Duck Fusion

[kind orbit]

@ashen laurel is it too late to become a path Leader

[ashen laurel]

I dont think so

[kind orbit]

Cool. Been thinking about it, since apparantly you only have to be 18 for danes, instead of being 23

[ashen laurel]

You have to apply pretty asap though

[kind orbit]

why?

[heady ember]

U have more less only 3 month left till roverway 🤣 maybe @kind orbit

[kind orbit]

i know, but we've just gotten it advertised that theyre still looking for ppl

danes specifically

[ashen laurel]

^

[kind orbit]

well apparantly they have run out of norwegians to join their teams, so now theyre calling in the reserve

[heady ember]

🤣

[atomic agate]

Is anyone at the TR03 17029

[ashen laurel]

Well were just 5 people in total so it makes sense

[kind orbit]

5 total norwegian path leaders??

damn, thats not a lot

[ashen laurel]

5 total norwegians

It was a joke

[kind orbit]

wow

[kind orbit]

are you one of the 5?

[ashen laurel]

No i moved to Africa

[kind orbit]

you dont live in norway anymore?

and are you not coming to roverway?

[ashen laurel]

Im going to Roverway

[kind orbit]

as staff or?

[ashen laurel]

No as participant

[kind orbit]

damn. rich kid

[ashen laurel]

I work

[kind orbit]

fair enough, as what? carpenter?

lol they just got back to me. they need path leaders on 15 paths

2-3 on each

[ashen laurel]

Yeah

[kind orbit]

Do you know which path you Are on?

[ashen laurel]

Yup

[kind orbit]

Which one?

[ashen laurel]

Øs23

[kind orbit]

Lol thats one if the ones they need ppl on. would be pretty funny if got put there

Did you choose it or do you just get put on one?

[ashen laurel]

It was pretty random

[kind orbit]

ah okay

[modern stirrup]

Any SØ06 ppl here?

[kind orbit]

I Got ghosted by the path Leader director…

[pearl pike]

We've been told we get our paths on may 6th!!! So excited!

[ornate charm]

yesssss

[pearl pike]

have you got your path? ukc bit inconsistent once again

[ornate charm]

not yet haha

[ornate charm]

@pearl pike maybe because its a bank holiday, they arent coming out today?

[pearl pike]

maybe

unless it was week commencing may 6th?

[still tapir]

uuiii what a nice name! I´m from Germany and my patrols name is R2P2 :)

[meager silo]

Obviously inspired by R2-D2

But what else?

[pearl pike]

thats a cool name. my patrol is moon foxes made from the two merged patrols (foxes sockses(mine) and moonwalkers)

[still tapir]

it had to be this one. were patrol number 2 so it´s like "roverway to patrol two"

[meager silo]

Nice

[still tapir]

we have an insta account now :D

roverway.r2p2 where there´s great stuff comming up

[meager silo]

We have one too. I’ll make sure my patrol follows you

patrol.nordic_duck_fusion is mine

[still tapir]

wow you have your own kind of flag

[meager silo]

wdym?

[still tapir]

i hope my patrol will realise our own badge

and sitckers

[meager silo]

Thats our old version

We’re getting a new logo

Bc four of the initial version (badeendjes) couldn’t attend anymore

So we fused with another patrol

Hence “nordic duck fusion”

[still tapir]

thats why you are so many

[meager silo]

Badeendje—>”rubber bath duck”

[meager silo]

8 persons

Max number over here

[still tapir]

same here

we are 6

and about to be the player team of the german contigent xD

i got the chance of leading 200 persons to play my game!

[meager silo]

Thats cool

[still tapir]

thats funny, how did you come up with that idea?

[meager silo]

6 “land scouts” and 2 “sea scouts”

And a duck can survive on land and on water

[still tapir]

nice!

[ornate charm]

Ohhh yeah

[kind orbit]

i dont like the path leader directors very much

i signed up as path leader, and now theyve ghosted me without putting me into contact with my fellow path leaders

[heady ember]

Sk01 is mine anyone got it ? (Sweden)

Swedish path it's called

[ivory gorge]

@arctic goblet has leveled up! (0 ➜ 1)

[carmine cloud]

My path is called SV01 All in!

[kind orbit]

Lol i Got put on ØS23

As a path Leader

Anyone there?

[ashen laurel]

Me...

[kind orbit]

this is gonna be fun

150km night hike to the swedish border for Ole?

[ashen laurel]

Would actually be fun, but 150 km is pretty far for one night. But i wouldnt mind a hike over the fjord to Øs19;)

[kind orbit]

You have to sprint

[ashen laurel]

Fack man

[pearl pike]

Still no paths 😞

[kind orbit]

Currently at gausta

[ashen laurel]

Sucks to suck

[ashen laurel]

How long?

[kind orbit]

Next couple of hours. We’re gonna run up there

[pearl pike]

It's kinda getting annoying now, Roverway is 2 months away and we still don't know where we are going, what we might need to prepare for etc

[ashen laurel]

You havent got the packing list?

[pearl pike]

Nothing path specific

We have the basic stuff

[ornate charm]

its so annoying

[ashen laurel]

I dont really think you need anything more? As im pretty sure the paths supply with extra gear they need

[ornate charm]

ah alright

its still incredibly annoying to not know where were going

it means we dont have flight details either yet

so cant organise transport to/from airports

[kind orbit]

I would write to [email protected] to check with Them

[ornate charm]

Paths out!

[kind orbit]

Where Are you going?

[ornate charm]

in06

Gran

To a campsite called Nordtangen

[pearl pike]

yesss!!

ØS11 is my path

[ashen laurel]

Oh you have to visit the local "euro spar" there

[pearl pike]

i have to admit im a little dissapointed with the path - we picked 'challenging' 'dynamic' 'mountain' and got 'easy' 'static' and 'forest'

[ornate charm]

same with us but oh well

ours still looks kinda cool

[pearl pike]

What's the description of yours?

Ours is with WAGGGS looking at how to make adventure accessible for all. And we have an overnight canoe trip too

[ashen laurel]

Cus we didnt want to bother with all the rules the english scouting has

[ornate charm]

"You will get to experience the national campsite of the YMCA-YWCA Scouts of Norway, here you will experience the amazing Norwegian nature in different ways. There will be day-hikes in the forest and canoeing in the nearby lake. In addition to this you will experience lots of collaborative activities within your tropp (groups of 50 scouts) and patrols and to really get to know Norway you’ll go to a supermarket to buy groceries."

[ashen laurel]

The supermarket in Gran is a national meme and the forest/taiga that is talked about is pretty cool to as it goes through all the way to the east and is the same forest that goes through Canada/Alaska so i think ur path is gonna be pretty nice for the traditional eastern norway experience thats not talked about as much as it should

[ornate charm]

why is it a meme 😭

thats pretty awesome tho

[ashen laurel]

Thats the owner of the store

[ornate charm]

😭😭😭

[kind orbit]

sounds like a fun guy

[fallen path]

Confusing. Haha

[ornate charm]

less than 2 months!!

[ashen laurel]

@kind orbit when is the info about the path coming?

[kind orbit]

Idk, our participant count got almost quadrupled. So we had to rethink the whole thing

[fringe void]

wait, what path is it?

[kind orbit]

ØS23

[fringe void]

The oslo fjord one? How many patrols are there?

[kind orbit]

No, we Are at halsnes friluftssenter

[kind orbit]

We have about 150 participants

With 20 patrols

[ashen laurel]

its at the fjord?

[kind orbit]

Its on a small penisula in a body of water, idk if its a Lake or fjord

[pearl pike]

Woah we have 5 patrols on our path! 2 UK, one Romanian, one french, one Norwegian

[ornate charm]

ONLY 5?

weve got like 15 haha

[pearl pike]

woahh

[kind orbit]

we've got 20 😎

(its really difficult to plan for so many ppl pls help)

[pearl pike]

start it off with a hunger games /k

[silver echo]

Sounds like you guys are with the best county in the UK

[pearl pike]

why's that 👀

[silver echo]

Weetabix is from Northants

And me lol

[pearl pike]

well, we are with the second best county in the UK then, since we are the county that invented blu-tack and extreme ironing

not to forget package holidays, dead kings in carparks and DNA fingerprinting

[silver echo]

Does Leicestershire have a carlsberg factory or really ugly concrete tower?

[pearl pike]

oh we have really ugly towers dont you worry

may i dm you @silver echo i dont want to flood the roverway channel with ugly towers?

[kind orbit]

tuborg is better than carlsberg anyway

[silver echo]

both suck but yes tuborg is better

[silver echo]

Sure ig

[kind orbit]

Nothing beats a cold classic

[ornate charm]

avon best county

[ashen laurel]

Wut

[gaunt drift]

from where did you get that list?

could you send SØ03?

[pearl pike]

I was sent it but I can see if I find it

[gaunt drift]

that would be great

[pearl pike]

@gaunt drift

[gaunt drift]

Thank you so much

[kind orbit]

Thats unfortunate

Youre gonna have a swedish patrol

[gaunt drift]

Why? Are they that bad? 😂

[pearl pike]

They are Swedish

If anyone else wants to see who's on their paths btw ping me

[gaunt drift]

let me guess, you are norwegian haha

[pearl pike]

No but I have close Norwegian friends

[meager silo]

I know people of the Paw Patrol

If that is supposed to be the dutch contingent

probably not

But there are more patrols with the same name then

@pearl pike could you check what other patrols go to the same path as mine?

SV07

[ashen laurel]

We are going to have viking raids towards sweden right?

[pearl pike]

Lmao you have like 40 patrols on your path

I think it's 20 and that they forgot to put sv08 on the spreadsheet

[meager silo]

Well, SV07 is at a big scouting campsite

I'm not surprised

but thanks

[pearl pike]

lol

we don't know where we are camping - theres no campsite in a like 50km radius

[ornate charm]

Were camping at nordtangen

[gaunt drift]

Does anybody know which countries are participating in Roverway?

[quiet matrix]

https://roverway.no/join-us/participants/

[gaunt drift]

yes, but canada, poland or other countries aren't on that list.

[pearl pike]

Like 5 of those countries aren't European

[kind orbit]

Why is uk mentioned twice lol

Both as “the united Kingdom” and as “scouts uk”

[quiet matrix]

this is what they put on their own site, can't do anything about it

[meager silo]

Three are not on the continent

And at least 2 more not in the EU

Why are “The United Kingdom” and “Scouts UK” listed separately though?

[pearl pike]

probably for scouts uk and bso?

[gaunt drift]

thank you, from where did you get that?

[quiet matrix]

on the roverway site itself

[ornate charm]

british scouting overseas is coming aswell

[sacred crane]

SV01 anyone?

[pearl pike]

You want the list of patrols?

[sacred crane]

Wondering if anyone here is on that path

To maybe meet them there

[gaunt drift]

does anybody know somebody from this path?

[quiet matrix]

can you get a list for Path ØS12 - WAGGGS Advocacy – Speak Out for Her World

[pearl pike]

Yes I can

[quiet matrix]

that would be great

[kind orbit]

Imagine not being on the best path - ØS23

[quiet matrix]

fjord and canoe

[ivory gorge]

@quiet matrix has leveled up! (2 ➜ 3)

[quiet matrix]

nice nice

[pearl pike]

huh

did it not send

i sent it earlier

hmm

[quiet matrix]

are you sure that is all? my group isn't on that list. and we're supposed to be

this is what we got, in the list of dutch groups

[gaunt drift]

but from where do you have acces to all of them?

[ivory gorge]

@gaunt drift has leveled up! (4 ➜ 5)

[pearl pike]

UK contingent email

[gaunt drift]

for real?

here in switzerland we haven't got anything

[pearl pike]

I can send link

[gaunt drift]

that would be nice

[quiet matrix]

i would also appreciate that

[fringe void]

youre going to love it, i might come visit the campsite to hike, as i live really close. its a beautiful campsite all year round, and its smack dab in the middle of nature

[meager silo]

Nice. I hope you get to visit us then

I’m excited for Roverway

[heady ember]

Whos on sk01@pearl pike

[pearl pike]

this is the spreadsheet with all paths btw https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LbXb9zPBTAWpWFWL24ZsCMjXg09IPkEJEokadUCipkI/edit#gid=0

[carmine cloud]

Yes me : )

[sacred crane]

:000

Cool!

[carmine cloud]

Are you in the infochat on whatsapp?

[sacred crane]

Yeah yeah

[carmine cloud]

lol we got our numbers hahahah

[sacred crane]

What are you thinking for the hike or canoe?

[sacred crane]

Wdym?

Do you mean phone numbers?

[carmine cloud]

ether the long hike or the canoe maybe a little more the later

[sacred crane]

Same same

[carmine cloud]

yeah uk prenumber is +44 and there arent many possibilities in the chat

[sacred crane]

Ahh yeah

Sorry it was a bit ambiguous

[carmine cloud]

Do you have the red pfp?

[sacred crane]

Btw wir können auch deutsch sprechen wen es hilft

[carmine cloud]

ahh lol ja ist einfacher

[sacred crane]

Ich kann aber nur Hochdeutsch und nicht so gut

[carmine cloud]

Dann kannst du es noch etwas lernen auf unserem Path

[sacred crane]

Nein ich hab ein roten Baum mit grünes Hintergrund

[carmine cloud]

Ahh ja und ein See im Vordergrund. Mein PFP zeigt einen Sonnenuntergang hinter einem Berg

[sacred crane]

Ich kann gut sprechen aber meine Mutter hat mich nur unterrichtet als ich junger war, und hab daher nicht viel lesen oder schreiben gelernt

[carmine cloud]

Ich muss sagen, dass du ausgezeichnet Deutsch schreibst

[sacred crane]

Ich kann jetzt gan schön gut jetzt lesen aber mein Schreiben ist immer nicht so gut

Jetzt kann ich die autokorrectur und ein bisschen Google translate für das ein oder andere Word bedanken

Und es braucht eine Weile

[carmine cloud]

Ja brauche zwischenzeitlich auch noch Google translate für einzelne englische Wörter. Aber ich könnte mich in England oder der USA durschlagen mit meinen Sprachkenntnissen.

[sacred crane]

Ja ich das selbe in Deutschland

Aber die Schweiz und Österreich sind noch was anderes. Ich kann es immer noch verstehen aber es ist sehr schwer

[carmine cloud]

Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Abend und ich freue mich auf den gemeinsamen Path in Norwegen

[sacred crane]

Danke, du auch!!

[carmine cloud]

Ja nichtmal Deutsche verstehen die Dialekte in der Schweiz und in Österreich. Teilweise verstehe ich die Leute aus dem gleichen Kanton nicht einmal mehr. (Meistens wenn man in höhere Lagen in den Bergen geht sind die Dialekte härter)

[sacred crane]

Lmao

Ich hab aber ein Schweizer Freund in die Schule und daher werde ich ein bisschen besser da mit

[carmine cloud]

Es gab einen Schweizer Poeten welcher eine Geschichte schrieb mit vielen frei erfundenen Wörtern welche aber ähnlich wie der Berndeutsche Dialekt tönten. Die Geschichte wurde zu einem Epitom des Berndeutsches. Hier ist noch eine Aufnahme der Geschichte.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPLz326AUlY

[sacred crane]

Ich frage mich wie Kommunikation gehen werd weil wir alle verschiedene Sprachen sprechen

[carmine cloud]

Ach das ist ja Toll. Dann hast du wahrscheinlich bereits das Wort 'Chuchichäschtli' bereits einmal gehört

[sacred crane]

https://youtu.be/Vt4Dfa4fOEY?si=7JPXQduW08S0-f5D

[sacred crane]

Toll!

[sacred crane]

Ich weiß nicht aber wir ärgern uns ummer über Kartoffeln vs herdopfli

[carmine cloud]

Naja irgendwie geht es dann schon immer. Und Englisch können schlussendlich sehr viele. Wir hatten unser Delegationstreffen am Sonntag auf Englisch, da die Deutsch-, Französisch- und Italienisch sprechenden einander nicht verstanden. wir haben auch einen Polnisch sprechenden IST. Leider ist meines wissens niemand in der Delegation der Rätoromanisch spricht.

[sacred crane]

Er ist von st Galle falzt das hilft

[carmine cloud]

Das heisst Härdöpfu!!!

[carmine cloud]

Uiiuiui

[sacred crane]

Ich weiß es nur von sprechen, Entschuldigung

[carmine cloud]

Atleast not a Zürcher

[carmine cloud]

schon gut

[sacred crane]

Ja wahrscheinlich

[gaunt drift]

schon am beleidigen? haha

[carmine cloud]

Ach ist nur ne kleine Rivalität zwischen Bernern und Zürchern. Wir sind wieder vereint wenn es gegen die Französisch sprachigen in der Westschweiz geht. Wir nennen die Grenze zwischen Deutsch und Französisch sprachigen den Röstigraben.

[quiet matrix]

made a list based on the google docs

[sacred crane]

Taiwan??

[gaunt drift]

Ich weiss schon bin auch schweizer

[meager silo]

New version of our badges have just arrived

[quiet matrix]

SICK!

[sacred crane]

YOOO our path just started a minecraft server xDD

That’s so cool!

[still tapir]

Ok wow, my patrol is the only one without a name, in fact we have

Ok not really the only one

[pearl pike]

patrol merch update, we have badges, neckers, name tapes AND (i have a patrol tshirt)

[meager silo]

Picture or it didn't happen

||I'm only getting my roverway merch next saturday||

[still tapir]

But we're the only German Patrol!

[pearl pike]

you've seen the badges and neckers no?

[meager silo]

ooh those are nice

We probably could've made name tapes as well

Didn't think about that

[still tapir]

We just ordered some badges

But way less than that!

[pearl pike]

how many? we ordered 600

[still tapir]

What what?! How many people are there in your patrol. Or is it just to trade

[pearl pike]

8

[still tapir]

We have 50 and we are 6 people

That's massive!

[pearl pike]

it gets cheaper the more you buy

but its also my 10th/11th badge commission for scouts so i get on well with the producer

[still tapir]

Yes but we probably don't need that much

[pearl pike]

ive just sent a scout leader in norway 6 badges

[meager silo]

Bribery?

[pearl pike]

no he bought them

[still tapir]

Ok that's cool. It's my first time getting "self-made" badges

[pearl pike]

he also sent me the roverway woggle before the wsj even happened - early merch :0

[pearl pike]

ah nice, you got a pic of the design?

[still tapir]

We called us the R2P2 cause of Patrol number 2 and it's just a little joke xD

[still tapir]

Those are cute!

[pearl pike]

cute <3

[still tapir]

Where are you from?

[pearl pike]

me?

[still tapir]

yes

[pearl pike]

long story lmao

im half french half german, born in uk lived here 18 years but moving to germany next year

[still tapir]

Ok that's interesting. Do you speak German and French as well as English?

[pearl pike]

And Spanish

[still tapir]

Wow! Nice

[pearl pike]

Does anyone know if campsite allocation for the main camp in stavanger is available? Like a list showing where patrols are staying?

[still tapir]

No, but I even didn't know that we can see the list of patrols with the same path 😅

[gaunt drift]

Officially we (switzerland) didn‘t get any practical information

[meager silo]

Finally got information about my path from the pathleaders

And there’s a WhatsApp group/community for all these paths

[ornate charm]

havent heard from ours yet

[ashen laurel]

Nice, im in one with @kind orbit so now i have his number(:

[kind orbit]

bruh

[kind orbit]

Also what tf was that meme you posted in whatsapp

[gaunt drift]

have any of you already got the necker for roverway?

[meager silo]

Nope. Dutch contingent neckers are delayed :/

Otherwise I would have gotten mine on saturday

[kind orbit]

not sure if i'll get one tbh

[ashen laurel]

Im trying to break the ice🥰

The meme in question

[kind orbit]

Well you did a good job

[ashen laurel]

🥰

[heady ember]

I believe u can buy one over there if u wish to but I've my international one for my country

[pearl pike]

Yep I've got loads

[gaunt drift]

where're you from?

[heady ember]

Has anyone manage to pack yet and any tips I bought few airtight bags ? Dose anyone use itb

[ashen laurel]

Nah, in Norway we still get plastic bags at the store. Those are the supperior packing bags

[heady ember]

I do to Normally bit I'm trying to compact it down

[ashen laurel]

Then you have to pack it compact

[ivory gorge]

@ashen laurel has leveled up! (16 ➜ 17)

[kind orbit]

you going on a plane?

[heady ember]

@kind orbit yes

[kind orbit]

damn thats tough

[heady ember]

Yeah lol

[kind orbit]

@ashen laurel is Oscar in your patrol?

[ashen laurel]

Ja

[meager silo]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mk6Hxeq-YWY

[kind orbit]

that was not what i excepted from norway of all places

tbh i dont really like it

in my opinion it should be more reminiscent of a campfire song, sung without instruments

[meager silo]

I have the funny feeling that I’m gonna hate this song after Roverway 😂

[still tapir]

Just listened to it. Well, let's see how we're gonna sing it at the main camp 😂

[quiet matrix]

only after? not already?

[meager silo]

For now I think it is cute

[quiet matrix]

until day 1, and you hear it everywhere

@meager silo what is your start location for path

[meager silo]

SV07

Camp733

Jørpeland

[quiet matrix]

how are you getting there? ferry?

i was thinking of asking all the dutch patrols that start near oslo to gather there on the sunday before it all starts. guess i wont see you there

[meager silo]

Aeroplane.
With three other patrol members of mine

Bc we have summer camps to attend to and we only get home two days before Roverway starts

[quiet matrix]

lol we also have summercamp before roverway, but we have one whole week before the start. so enough time to go by train

3 days home after summercamp, and then gone for the next 3 weeks

[kind orbit]

which path are you on?

[quiet matrix]

ØS13

[quiet matrix]

another dutch patrol has made badges

[meager silo]

That one is cool as well

[ashen laurel]

Same, not enough meeningles talk about epaulet colors!

[still tapir]

For me it's the other way around. I'm attending a Summercamp directly after roverway. So I've no day at home between these camps

[kind orbit]

trade stuff is packed 💪

[pearl pike]

How many scarves (neckers) are you taking?

[kind orbit]

3 group neckers, 2 national neckers, 1 israeli necker

and a bunch of badges

some pins and a couple songbooks

[pearl pike]

Nice, I'll if you find me I'll have quite a few, 6 UK, 5 french, 6 perso, and a few hundred badges

[kind orbit]

damn

[pearl pike]

It helps to be the 'quartermaster' in my patrol, since I did all the design and prep for neckers, badges, stripes and stuff everyone got what they payed for but i also got the spares, which for badges is like 20 extra

[kind orbit]

damn

[heady ember]

I've about 6 irish ones I'm taking

[ornate charm]

ive got 4 uk and 5 patrol

[ashen laurel]

And hes gonna return with 6 norwegian😆

[heady ember]

@ashen laurel lol nah idk who I want yet

[pearl pike]

can i have em all?

[heady ember]

@pearl pike 😂

Come find me

[heady ember]

I've a question for the ones who are in Norway or live there can u get soda bread flour or plain flour ?

[ashen laurel]

yeah?

[pearl pike]

update on this - i was wrong

10 UK, 3 french, 6 personal and 1 ukrainian

total of 20 to trade :)

[heady ember]

@ashen laurel no worries haha might need it over there

[meager silo]

We’re only going to get our contingent necker when we get to main camp

Our first producer for the neckers bailed out

Right before we needed them two saturdays ago

[heady ember]

@meager silo that's crazy

[still tapir]

I'm taking some scarfs of my district (Munich, Bavaria) and patrol badges

[ashen laurel]

Are you ready for a week stuck with me @kind orbit ?

[kind orbit]

You forget who is the one in charge here.

[ashen laurel]

you may be in charge on paper but in reality

[kind orbit]

In reality i have the entire path’s budget in my bank Account right now

[ashen laurel]

And that is? 1500 nok😆

[kind orbit]

150000 nok roughly

[ashen laurel]

Dont spend it all on snus

Or do, maybe the other europeans like it

[pearl pike]

European here, I don't

[pearl pike]

Send us some 🥺

[kind orbit]

No

Then i wouldnt have as much leverance over Ole

[ashen laurel]

No you dont get it, every time ur gonna say "no dont break that" i can answer with "i know that you can pay for replacment"

[kind orbit]

We also have to pay for your food

And the very little alcohol it takes to get Oscar drunk is out of your pockets

[ashen laurel]

To be fair the norwegian alcohol prices dont affect Oscar

[kind orbit]

I could probably out drink him anyway

[ashen laurel]

I did and im not that heavy weight myself😆

[kind orbit]

Are you going home directly after the main Camp?

[ashen laurel]

Im going to Oslo atleast

[kind orbit]

Ah okay

[ashen laurel]

And you?

[kind orbit]

I’m going home on the 4th

But that’s from Kristianssand

[ashen laurel]

Are you going to Oslo though?

[kind orbit]

Maybe, i have no plans for the two nights between end of Camp and my ferry

[ashen laurel]

We could grab some drinks on friday?

[pearl pike]

come to our post event

btw how long is the drive from your paths to stavanger?

ours is 10 (9.5) hours 😭

[ashen laurel]

Same, we drive from Hemnes. Not far from the swedish border🥴

[pearl pike]

yeah we are in tøbol which i think is a 15min drive from the border

[ashen laurel]

Tobøl? Which path is this?

[pearl pike]

øs11 (the wagggs inclusion one 😢 )

doesnt corelate with anything we put on our preference sheet

[ashen laurel]

Wagggs inclusion?

[pearl pike]

its like about making sport and adventure more inclusive for all

[kind orbit]

Imagine not being at ØS23 😎

[pearl pike]

imagine having a path with hundreds of people on it 🤢

[ashen laurel]

According to the conversations we are having i dont think there will be hundreds leaving the path🥴

[pearl pike]

theres 5 patrols on mine so max 40 peopel

[ashen laurel]

Any Norwegians?

[pearl pike]

yep

[ashen laurel]

Who?

[pearl pike]

NO33

[ashen laurel]

Pppppfff

[pearl pike]

hu?

[ashen laurel]

Our contingent dont like to share that stuff because its "GDPR"

[pearl pike]

its in the spreadsheet

thats publicly available

[ashen laurel]

Where

[pearl pike]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LbXb9zPBTAWpWFWL24ZsCMjXg09IPkEJEokadUCipkI/edit#gid=0

the spreadsheet with all the paths, all the patrols

[ashen laurel]

Oh yeah cool

[pearl pike]

you hadnt seen this?

[ashen laurel]

Not really😆

[pearl pike]

🤦

[ashen laurel]

Hey thats not very kind of you

[pearl pike]

😞

i did also send it a month or 2 ago

[ashen laurel]

I was busy making sharp objects

[pearl pike]

sharp objects..i could steal ? :P

[ashen laurel]

If we have any left, we are gonna throw them at the british

[pearl pike]

what sort of sharp objects may i ask?

[ashen laurel]

😈

Things that are smaller then a cucumber

[pearl pike]

what breed of cucumber?

[ashen laurel]

No idea, ask @rain lily

[pearl pike]

are we talking stabby stabbies, slicy slicies, throwies?

sorry that prolly makes no sense lmao

[ashen laurel]

We are talking: Yes

[pearl pike]

:(

[kind orbit]

Throwing Sharp objects at the British will be a widespread activity on our path

(Hypothetically of course)

[ashen laurel]

The good thing is that they are not allowed to throw back(:

[kind orbit]

Yes, that’s against their rules

As Well as basically every other thing that’s Fun

[ashen laurel]

Our task is to make them break as many as possible😆

[pearl pike]

we've already been told that we might not get to do a part of our path

even though im pretty sure our PL is a lifeguard 🤣

[ashen laurel]

Are you british?

[pearl pike]

me? no..well kinda, but i live in england so im uk contingent

[ashen laurel]

Sooo british

[pearl pike]

french and german

[ashen laurel]

Anglo saxon

[kind orbit]

Anglo-saxons are not french lol

[ashen laurel]

Alsas lothringen?

[kind orbit]

Idk about that one

We’ll have to ask the french and germans

[ornate charm]

hey >:(

[ashen laurel]

?

[kind orbit]

They’re likely British and thus likely to have something Sharp thrown at them

[ashen laurel]

Oh yeah true

[pearl pike]

My trades are heavier than my tent hahahaha

[kind orbit]

@ashen laurel how is fishing in norway

[ashen laurel]

pretty nice,

[kind orbit]

I meant like laws

[ashen laurel]

just do as you wish, you have to fish alot to be arrested

[kind orbit]

Ok thanks

[still tapir]

@kind orbit where have you found that Role if Roverway?

[ashen laurel]

Announcments

[heady ember]

Anyone having trouble booking taxis? Trying to book advance for possible lynch 2 taxi to get us to the path entry point we arrive at 10pm that night on 22nd

[meager silo]

ROVERWAY ROLE

[kind orbit]

We just set up some buses for our participants, which path are you on?

[heady ember]

Sk01

@kind orbit

[kind orbit]

Hm, i dont know anyone there sadly

What is the path about?

[ashen laurel]

Do you know how expensive taxi is, let alone in Norway...

[heady ember]

@kind orbit swedish summer camp lol 😂

@ashen laurel no go on break the news 😂

[kind orbit]

I’m Sorry for you

[heady ember]

@kind orbit haha y

[kind orbit]

Going to that “place” must be traumatizing

[heady ember]

😂

Gota love it 10 hpur bus to roverway on the friday

Hour

@kind orbit

[kind orbit]

Tbh we are quite close to the border as Well, so its not gonna be a lot shorter for us

[heady ember]

@kind orbit whats ur path

[kind orbit]

ØS23 💪💪

The best path there is

[heady ember]

Whats the name haha

[kind orbit]

Camping at Halsnes

[heady ember]

Cool

[meager silo]

We should look into arranging a DST meetup over there

On main camp

Note to self: bring DST necker

[ashen laurel]

Its gonna be a hard week

[kind orbit]

Why do you say That

[ashen laurel]

[pearl pike]

@ashen laurel another funny thing with our path.. our emergency meeting point in case of fire or whatever is 12km away from the campsite, an approximate 4hour hike

[pearl pike]

Your 10 hour bus is on Friday?? Lucky ours is Saturday

[ashen laurel]

Thats funny

[pearl pike]

I'm still waiting to hear back from our contingent team, as we don't have showers and are supposed to wash in a lake, but on our risk assessment stuff we aren't allowed to bathe in water

Tis a joke

[meager silo]

I’m curently packing. Got lots of stuff to trade

Maybe a few more of my own group neckers in addition to this

[ashen laurel]

"Risk asses this balls" would be my answer then

[pearl pike]

I sarcastically asked if I had to wear a lifejacket to wash

[kind orbit]

What was the answer?

[pearl pike]

Not got one yet

Asked 2 days ago

[fringe void]

You might need a fishing card if your over 16 to fish in freshwater, but that's just if the government cares to hunt you down and ticket you

[fringe void]

That just seems like poor planning?

[ashen laurel]

They wont, not for the week

[pearl pike]

its er in a different village lmao

[ashen laurel]

Norway at its best jk, appropo planning. Are you in the Landsleir comitee yet?

[fringe void]

Ehhhh, eg har snakka med hovedansvar for beredskap, men eg tror det endte at eg holdt meg utenfor te itte roverway, men nk e jo vesterlen, så det e jo gudd

[ashen laurel]

Have you thought about something in the rover department? Ive heard its pretty nice in roverteknisk;)

[fringe void]

My Roverway path (trip before the Main camp) will cross all of the 3 most «dangerous» (dont know What danger is) waters in Southern Norway….
We will cross the Mighty Songvaar Fjord which is the place Where most boats have gone down (lot of reefs and rocks), the Lista land (exposed to the north sea) and the Reef of Jæren (infamous ocean stretch)

Luckily we the skippers know What were doing, it will be Fun

The Songvaar fjord has a reputation to fog up, hiding entire archipellagoes

[ashen laurel]

You have to atleast sink one ship to have cool stories to tell

[shy veldt]

Thats not an issue🤣
We have a salute cannon on board
