WA NOTES contributions of & COMMENDS Brevity

by **Topdop** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 1:52 pm

This sort of thing seems to be all the rage these days, so I figured I'd join in.

by **Hungry** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 1:54 pm

I don't like the use of the word Acknowledges, should be something more along the lines of Recognize.

by **Topdop** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 1:55 pm

NOTES is shorter, I'll change it to that.

Still kind of sketchy but good enough.

You can save characters by writing it in textspeak.

Regardless, I wholeheartedly support this proposal.

You're missing a letter in "hereby".
Might as well scrap the whole word, though.

Definitely. Thanks for your input.

"WA".

by **Astrolinium** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 2:23 pm

You should also replace "and" with an ampersand.

by **San Leggera** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 2:24 pm

How about switching 'and' for an ampersand?

I disagree with the brevity of this commendation.

by **Cromarty** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 2:28 pm

Change 'the contributions of' to 'contributions from'.

Saved you a letter there, want co-authorship plz.

I doubt your commitment to the cause of brevity. That would require the addition of far too many letters, in my humble opinion.

by **Topdop** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 2:52 pm

Text shortened.

by **Frisbeeteria** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 9:58 pm

"The WA" could be shortened to "NSWA"

You should really add more detail, as otherwise it is doomed to fail like mine seems to be.

by **McMasterdonia** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 10:51 pm

This has my full support.

Or "The" could just be removed. *Gets out scissors.*

by **Milograd** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:10 am

"SEES" is one letter shorter than "NOTES".

by **Klaus Devestatorie** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:17 am

If you wanna be fancy, you can replace "contributions" with "alms".

by **New Hayesalia** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:19 am

Do you really need a period at the end?

by **Umbra Ac Silentium** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:22 am

Support

by **Metania** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 3:40 am

I'm still wondering if an even smaller resolution could be made. Eventually all that exists would be "COMMEND A" (Pick a nation with a really short name)

by **Dagguerro** » Tue Nov 20, 2012 6:53 am

Couldn't "contributions of" be simplified to just "work by"? Or at least "efforts of"? "Contributions" is quite a long word after all.

Regardless, would support.
