A thought on Nomenclature

Post by Aurangzeb Khan »

For the wiki article concerning the war. Redoubt Island War is a pretty pointless name since no fighting occurred there - similarly the Gascon War limits it to the description of one theatre. Now considering the foes arrayed against us, New Britannia, Nova England and of course the erstwhile Britannian satellite state of Bosworth, it would be perhaps most apt to call this the Anglo-Shirerithian War. :document

Anglo-Shirithians? And the Batavians and Interlandians? :confused

(not really honest, but factual anyway)

Firstly, what is this place called Redoubt Island that people keep talking about? I've been trying to look for it in the maps, and the only place I've found that looks like it is Enhasa...


(quite honest, actually)

Secondly, you should know that I often navigate the board with the keyboard - it's faster than taking my hand off the keyboard, putting it on the mouse, aiming at a link, and clicking. Would you kindly make sure your thread titles are correctly spelled? I had to do a double take on the title of this one...

Well Ari anything that makes you do a double take and waste a few precious seconds is easily worth me making myself seem like even more of an illiterate clod than I actually am. :p

Well fair enough. I've edited the title so that I seem slightly less of an arse.

But your Imperial Majesty, you are in no position to mock when it comes to erratic spelling habits. ;)

No Sir. But I would have you throne from the thrown at the earliest opportunity if this discussion carries on much longer.

No. I haven't.



Because I never met a South African before.

:D :D :D

Haven't laughed so hard in a while... at least at something that's actually trying to be funny.
Vilhelm von Benkern - The Dolphin-...Count
:: Formerly just "benkern"
:: Rook Sentry of the Order of the Vorpal Blade
:: Count of Mar Sara IIRC
:: Former Baron of Absentia AFAIK, before that Baron of Vorpmadal TBH; also Former Duke of Yardistan IMHO
:: Dux Emeritus of the Order of Mischievous Intent

It takes moo to mango!
