Your arming my enemy. ;)

And it is the people devoid of W, V, H's that are not at the beginning of a word, after a "r" at the beginning of a word, or follows a t, k, or p, and J.

Edit: Also, the Demos of Bennipolis expects a formal letter that includes your response in it.

I still not sure what you are asking for. Do you not understand the letters? I think that they technically are supposed to be private (such as the hiders in the first post of the RP). Although I did not have anything in there that I would care if someone else read.

Just a heads up. Titanic is yet to post and I have contacted him, if he fails to appear he will be dropped out and his nation will suffer a 'catastrophe' possibly putting some ofhis stuff into your greedy little hands.

According to this post, he has been sick. I don't know whether he replied or not when you say that you have contacted him, so this may or may not be news to you.

Also, how long will it take for my colonists to reach the New World.

This is news to me however I messaged him over 2 days ago and he has simply not replied. They will be arriving in my next 'News' Post. Also when it comes to being a week up I am going to advance the time period.

Sorry I've been unclear I understand perfectly the letter you sent to me. No worries there.
What I meant by all the letter was all the capital Vs Hs and Ws as in your first comment of this page.
I'm not sure what make bank means either, sorry for the confusion.

I understand now. I thought you were talking about the IC.

In Ancient Greek, there is no letter for W, V, H, or J.

However, the "H" sound can appear at the beginning of a word (especially before a upsilon, like Hydro, or Hyper), after a "R" that is at the beginning of the word (Rhetoric), or anytime when it follows either t, p, or k (chthonic, phonic - alright, a two in one ).

Also, the "W" sound use to have a letter called the digamma, but it got dropped out a long long time ago, even before homer (although you can still see the effects of this in the meter). Also, there are two other cases where the "W" sound exists, both of which are diphthongs (i.e. two vowels combined into one sound): ui and either au or eu when followed by another vowel. I cannot think of a Greek word that comes into English that begins with ui, but for eu, think of Evander (or Euander). I am still unsure whether in Euander you are supposed to pronounce the "u" as a "v", or pronounce it like "eu" (like feud). An example of eu not having a possible v/w sound (at least when it comes into English) is eureka.

And for J, both Greek and Latin use a consonant "I" for J and it is pronounced like a consonant "Y".

Hope that clears things up. Also, I will go back into my posts and place a "u" in your nation's name because I forgot about the Evander/Euander example.

Edit: Just realized that Aventia had a "v" in it. >.< Why didn't anyone point out that I made an mistake. :D

Edit2: Okay, I think I fixed all the mistakes I made. Also, I will limit these changes to character speech.

As you can see, he is back. I will gie you a little bit of time to do some diplomacy with the others before I advance the time.

EDIT: Actually screw it...you have plenty of time for that I shall advance it as soon as possible.

EDIT: And another thing! Could people please inform me of what goes on in PM, I dont want everything you do just a quick summary to tell me the basics of what's happening. It seems like I am missing a lot of this info. Nothing rude meant to people who have already done it, I like it it adds intrigue however I would just like to know what's going on in my RP.:L

@Kangaroo, I don't want to be surprised! I want to know what's going on...:L

@ASura, you can give it a go, I will tell you how successful it is. The better your description of the campaign the better your chances.
