Welcome to this side of things, Airyn. It's great to see you here. Anyways, to keep it short, hope you have fun, enjoy the cookies and if you need any help from me, just ask.
If you've got any suggestions please do yell out. I'm absolutely awful with names. It took me well over an hour to get the name for my last character.
And speaking of characters, that's fine with me. Congrats on the approvals for him as well. I'm definitely getting a character in the Thirsty Herald with him there.
Oh, and if anyone's still interested with this monumentally slow-moving entry, appearance is now done. Ooo, I'm so close my hands are shaking.
Well, we may not be harnessing the power of steam, but I had an idea for a gnomish invention today, in chem, that definitely harnesses the power of water. Just think much colder than steam.
Ooooo, is it like those books where you pick what happens in the story. You know, the ones that say go to page 7 if you turn right, or page 9 if you turn left. 'Cause that would be so cool.
Oh, oh, do a flying cow that lives off nothing more than partially decomposed bark. That would make a great entry.
Anyways, craziness aside, great update Arti, and everyone else that helped out. Its good to see more entries up in an update, and its even better to know that some of the work is taken of our dear sage's shoulders.
Well Deci wrote the whole Sanryu and Blood magic thing, so I'm not sure if the ban is a complete no-no. I always thought the bans were really just there to say you need a really, really good reason to create it. But I think an outline of the concept would be good thing before you could get a definite answer, Kali. I don't know, I"m really just guessing.
Well, I was thinking about trying to prepare this myself, Arti, if that helps. I wouldn't want you to have this extra work. I hoping to actually get this pretty much done this weekend. Yay! And yeah, names aren't my forte. But I'll make sure they're done before it's ready for comments.
Sounds like an idea Talia. Just give me a couple of days to think it through and read my entry to make sure there's nothing conflicting and then I can confirm it. But thanks for the idea, it has sparked my inspiration for that section again.
Thanks for the check Seth. All your comments are integrated, just look for the orange. And nope, pigs are about the only animal I don't have. Thanks again.
Edit: Oh, and, for anyone who cares, I added an attempt at an Easter Egg in there, so see if you can spot it. It's pretty easy.
Ouch. Yeah I'll try and get back to work. I've just been so busy recently I've struggled to even get online. But still thats no excuse for this taking so long.
Shall we try and get this going again. I know we're probably all busy, I know I am, and Judy has that internet problem still, doesn't she? But if we take it nice and slow we should be okay, I think. Oh, and Gaffin, when you have the time, what do you think about the tenses? Should the time signal be joined to the verb, or separate?
If I may propose a little task for us, could we get all our prefixes and suffixes for verbs nailed down. Because right now I'm a little confused by it. And it will help build our vocabulary. I'm pretty much at a loss with this, so I'll just do what I can and leave gaps where I'm unsure.
Prefixes Zer - Zor - Ziir - (I'm not really getting these three, which isn't to good. Could I have a little help with it. Pretty please.) Y - Reverses the meaning of the verb. Equivalent of English dis-, as in dissemble or disappear, and un-, as in unfasten. (Is this for all verbs, or are we going to have numerous ones like English.) (insert prefix here) - Meaning again. Equivalent of English re-, as in rewrite or review or recognise. (insert prefix here) - Meaning too much. Equivalent of English over-, as in oversleep or overwork. (insert prefix here) - Meaning more or better. Equivalent of English out-, as in outdo or outbid. (insert prefix here) - Meaning make. Equivalent of English be-, as in befriend or belittle. (insert prefix here) - Meaning together. Equivalent of English co-, as in co-operate. (insert prefix here) - Meaning do the opposite of. Equivalent of English de-, as in devalue or deselect. (insert prefix here) - Meaning before or earlier. Equivalent of English fore-, as in forewarn or foresee. (insert prefix here) - Meaning before. Equivalent of English pre-, as in pre. (insert prefix here) - Meaning under or below. Equivalent of English sub-, as in sub-level or subdivide. (insert prefix here) - Meaning between. Equivalent of English inter-, as in interact or interface. (insert prefix here) - Meaning across or over. Equivalent of English trans-, as in transport or transform. (insert prefix here) - Meaning not enough. Equivalent of English under-, as in underpaid or underdeveloped.
I don't really have the time to fill in any gaps or do the suffixes, but at least it is a start. Hopefully there aren't too many errors with it. In those famous words, I'll be back.
