This picture may be helpful. Note that Europe and Asia are indeed on one plate, while Africa is on another. Interestingly, the Arabian peninsula has a plate to itself as well.

"Caling attension"? "Wright"? I hoppe thad teh suden infflucs of bahd spelin in tihs topick is delibrade. I notice some people affected much worse than others. Nicothodes didn't catch anything, while Infernal is nearly incomprehensible and David talks 7331. Is this related to how badly they got hit or some kind of inherent resistance? Because whatever shields them, I need to get myself some of it. :P [ Thursday, June 01, 2006 02:29: Message edited by: Man with a Thousand Names ] -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

Akhronath also came up with a magic language he called Soruharva, incidentally. I have always figured he had a greater vocabulary for it than the bit he published on his site, because he translated Tolkien's "Ai laurie lantar lassi surinen" poem into the language and many of the words used aren't listed. Meant to mail him some time, but never really got around to it. Anyway... -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast. Polaris is dead, long live Polaris.

The PPP does not keep track of whether topics are locked or open (although it would be a nice additional feature if I ever have time). However, here is a topic starter ranking that does not take into account lockage: Edit: Note that this was up-to-date as of half a year ago.

You can rank posts on a scale that is pretty much a product of their usefulness and the coherence.

The Endeavor has a search function, and he might have been using it to rack up his multi accounts for the celebratory topic. There are some hits from Nevada, so it seems quite likely.

Alec has many accounts. Altogether, the ones I know of have 5145 posts. I didn't search very thoroughly. Enough said? That doesn't explain why he chose exactly this number to celebrate though. But nobody who understood it was willing to explain the last time either, so I fear that'll remain a mystery. It also doesn't explain the images, although their number could coincide with the number of accounts. Edit: I also found another of Alec's multis, which brings the post tally to 5158. Curiously, the last two posts elude me.

Thank you. --------------- To grant some fleeting use to this thread, while sticking firmly with the self-adoration theme, this will now become my Undead Moniker topic. You know, like TM's, except his is the oldest and longest topic currently on General, while mine is a puny topic started just now. List of names follows.

I think the only addition is some conjecture on sentence building, as well as a sample sentence. The other stuff is all Drakey's (though I think he worked with another Blades designer whose name I forgot; this may date back to the 90's). Assuming you believe in it (the vocabulary is, after all, fan-lore), it's useful for analyzing certain Vahnatai names from the series. Which served as the basis for the conjecture though, so it's not particularly informative. You will find that "Glantris" does not mean "Fountain of Sapphires" because tris means sapphire and glan means fountain, but that glan means fountain and tris sapphire because "Glantris" was chosen to translate to "Fountain of Sapphires". :P As far as making up Vahnatai speech (whole sentences) for a scenario, you'll find you're mostly on your own. Rather than rely on the players' ability to translate, it is advisable to indicate what you meant to say. It just wouldn't do for a player to have to look up "s'daah mat sis'pil'ghel" and conclude that their Vahnatai companion called their mother a big hippo. :P -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

Actually, for him to send it to you by email, he'd just need to be able email you, not vice versa. I have Thralni's email, but I don't like publishing other people's addresses when they can do it themselves...
