Maybe I should write along philosophy about this. A chicken not being in chicken, deep, deep inside. A chicken, as all living beings, Must eat, sleep, drink, and explode from time to time, or be put in my new generation PTC bomb. However, all beings are different from each other. One eats only gras, others sleep on their heads, and so on, and so on. Exploding is an importatnt thing in the cyclus of life. Its a moment of maturity and being very warm inside, that is, until you explode.

I could go on with this for a long time, but I said enough. For now.

Not that I want a custom title, of course. Just a sort of unoffical one.

Or there's the whole "I deserve it more than Aran does, at least" schtick, but I won't get into that here.

Eh, I think A4 will get its own board, especially if it's very different. For a while, anyway.

If that were actually the case, Ben, then why would the Avernum Trilogy board have been changed to the Avernum Series board?

Oh, I hadn't noticed that. Mostly because I've never posted there. Forum 20 will have to wait.

DB: It's "tetralogy," darnit.

Ben: the only reason I expected you to know that already is that it is had been mentioned in this thread already. Check out Aran's post shortly before yours.

Undecology?

It should be because after decillion is undecillion. But I've always had troble finding the name for an 11-sided polygon. (besides 11-gon) Anyway, a little off topic...

Beyond 10, the number of sides a polygon has gets increasingly difficult to determine, because the angles become so obtuse that by the time you have about 20-30 sides, you're looking at a rough circle.

On that note, I wonder what the name of an irregular 6323-sided polyhedron would be.

Eh, well, counting doesn't matter. If it has 11 sides, it should have a proper name. :P

As for the prefix from 6323, I have no idea.

What it should be: a 6323-sided figure must be a pretty fargon. An infinite sided figure would then be an allgon.

But, sadly, the official term for such an object is 'an irregular 6323-gon'.

I'm surprised nobody got the idiotic but subtle Hogans's Heroes joke at the end of my first post. Or, at least, nobody had the courage to speak up about it and thereby admit to being an idiot on a level equal to myself. :P

Wiki didn't have an answer? I'm shocked.

HH is a television comedy based at the fictional German POW camp "Stalag 13." Col Klink was the hapless kommandant, and Hogan was the leader of the POWs. Every episode they managed to escape, ususally by making a fool out of the Germans. They always returned to the camp with good food (which they shared with Klink) or after having some escapade in a tavern.

Excellent show, although I haven't seen reruns in a long time. My memory might have credited more than is due for the show. IIRC this was one of many war comedies that aired during the Vietnam conflict, perhaps an attempt to reduced the perceived tragedy of war and instill some humor.
