Reflection on Re: "Poll On Game Engines"

[Quarto]

Kalkrath: <Voice full of contempt> Tuka!
No offence intended

. Just seemed appropriate. Check your Killie terminology in the KSaga/Victory Streak manual.

 

[Earthworm]

Quarto! That was completly uncalled for. You sa'guk the WC fans.

Gen. Patton

 

[Earthworm]

I can, at least I think I'm doing it right. That's probably because my native language is so much different than english. Try prounancing my last name, Biesiadzinski.

[Earthworm]

Not even close

It's Polish.

[Earthworm]

The end was almost right.

[Earthworm]

What do you mean?

------------------

Gen. Patton

 

[Quarto]

Earthworm: Actually, the correct way of saying that would be "You are a Sa'guk to the WC Fans" - Sa'guk isn't a verb, it's a noun. Now if you don't mind, I'll just go and commit Zu'kara, since you think I'm a Sa'guk

.

A poza tym, wcale nie jest tak trudno powiedziec Biesiadzinski.

Hehe. Didn't expect that, did ya?

 

[Earthworm]

Quarto- No I didn't expect that. Where're you from?

------------------

Gen. Patton

 

[Quarto]

Kalkrath: It's Polish. I thought everybody knew Polish

.

Earthworm: You mean, like, what part of Poland? Torun. But I'm not there right now, obviously

.

 

[Quarto]

Go ahead. Make my day. But be warned. I'll drag every word out of you in English. How, you may ask? The answer lies in your name, young Kalkrath.

 

[Earthworm]

I thought maybe you're from Rusia, Ukraine, or one of the other countries down there. All of those languages are very similar.

[Earthworm]

Kalkrath means interrogation by torture, not used on high-ranking Kilrathi except by order of the Emperor

------------------
A good soldier is not the one who die for his country, it's the one who makes his enemy die for his.
Gen. Patton

 

[Quarto]

Earthworm: Oh, come on. Not that bloody similar

.

Had me scared there for a sec, Kalkrath. I was like, what the hell? He doesn't know what his name means? Fortunately, I can see that you are wiser than that.

 

[Earthworm]

I have a friend from Ukraine, and I can understand at least %90 of what he says.

------------------

Gen. Patton

 

[Quarto]

Yeah, but if he writes something, you'll see differences.

Quarto, how's the new comp?

"This matter winds itself ever in new riddles.", Faramir - The Lord of The Rings

 

[Quarto]

Klaus: 'Twill do. So far, it's behaved fairly well. Of course, I still don't trust it (it's a celeron... What can I say?), but at least it works. It's actually starting to become usable, now that I've been installing various stuff on it.
Believe it or not, WCP was the first thing to be installed

. But actually, it wasn't because it's WC or anything like that. I just wanted to see how the graphics card would perform

.

 

[Quarto]

Kalkrath: Hah. No, thank you. I'd rather read Kilrathi

.

 

[Quarto]

Yes! I'd love to know the Killie alphabet. Hell, every WC fan should know it, or be a Sa'guk. Unfortunately, the good people at Origin haven't bothered to invent it. Which is rather unfair. They made the Gargoyle alphabet for Ultima

.

 

[Quarto]

Hmm.
"The language is written in sets of four vertical lines. Each vertical line comprises a full line, a split line, or a shorter line with a dot above or below it. This set of four lines creates a single syntactic element. Vertical clusters of the four-line sets combine to make sentences." - KSaga.

<Heh, I guess the people who made the WCP intro didn't bother to read that manual>

Sounds a tad complicated, but it could be done. Actually, it sounds incredibly complicated. This would be the equivalent of inventing the Chinese language.

So, shall we give it a go?
