No I was not. It's not the world's most user-friendly interface, so I'm a little confounded by it at the moment. Maybe we should move to Wikispot or something.

TBH I know very little about Wikis.


Perhaps, we should use a different type of wiki. Should I make one?

SAW post made.

I think I'll call my people Cycuiian(s) from now on. It's fair for both groups of people who call themselves either Xecuiian and Cyprumese.

Cy -> Cyprum
cuii -> Xecuii

Although Cyprum [Cy] has the first letters, it's balanced out by having four letters of Xecuii [cuii] at the back, two more than Cy.

It's also not so hard to say the word either: Cy -> Sai cuii -> ku Saikuian [I or E is silent?] -> Saikuan -> Cycuiian


MISH I KNOW YOU'RE THERE. POST ON SAW. *Heavy breathing*

Where do you guys see anything about only being able to have 5 members? I see that free members can only have up to five sites (individual wikis), but the membership appears to be unlimited, as is the number of pages and edits.

Anyway, Servoth, do you know what you're doing with wikis? Maybe you would make a better admin than me, in that case. Or, if you want, you can join the one I already have set up and I can grant you admin privileges -- I just figured out how to do that, lol.

I'm not sure if I can actually invite people, but I found a place where I can accept or deny applications, so I think you guys just have to apply first. How do you request to join it, you ask? I haven't the foggiest.

OK; I found the videos from an online college course that teaches people how to use Wikidot. The guy is kind of boring, but very helpful, and I've been following his walkthroughs. I'll have this baby up and running in no time. But first...sleep.

EDIT: link to the guy: http://www.youtube.com/user/drsamoore/videos?view=0

Cyprum, this now means I will use extremely complex words. And maybe even use antidisestablishmentarianism.

@Fan - I took Inesea's word for it that there were only five. Also, I'm not sure how to send an app (and Sri, this one's not sarcasm)... I can probably figure it out if I devote some time to it, but I need to go to school today, so I won't have it till well after 6 pm my time.

@Cyprum - I'm still calling your people Cyprumese :p.

Call it a cultural thing, but Inorothians decide on what they are going to call someone, and then the name sticks, regardless of what the proper term actually is.

@Inoroth: Okay, I'm just saying that I'll probably call my people by this new word now. Tis all.
@Sri: Okay.

Cycuiian.
Cycuiian.
Cycuiian.

Rule of three, this word is now forever spoken by me. [That made no sense but oh well]

No worries. Now just to wait for Sri/Nov/Cyprum to post.....

I tried to be at least semi-realistic as to what my ambassador would think, but it came off too "Oh, you lied to us and are planning to continue the war? mkay, cool story bro" rather than semi-alarmed....But still!

If the next two relevant IC posts are from AMEN members/Ino, I'll just have Marino pack up and leave, so we don't just sit around twiddling our thumbs IC and OOC.

Anyway, Cygnar's two week "away" period should be concluding sometime early next week, so we can bring the LOTR thing up, and I can get my internal RP thing going.

This peace conference is a disaster. Two people of considerable rank are dead, Silvak is stonewalling and Cyprum waited halfway through to bother to send his leader.

Conferences are fun, while war posts are dull and boring for me (the actual battles) because everything drags on. In a conference, things can be decided in a few posts that change the course of a region/nation/world for decades or centuries.

Mmm. Yeah, politics is not me. Having to actually think in order to make a compelling argument is something I also hate doing. Hell, I don't even like using the word compelling. It's not that we shouldn't use a larger vocabulary, It's just not how I personally talk to people in the world. If I had my people talk to the delegates earlier, no one would take us seriously or care because we'd talk causally to them.

EDIT: Either that, or we wouldn't have much to talk about anyway.
