Malfaydor Mashinations? Uhmm.. I think I'm with the Malfador Machinations too.

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

So we've all concluded he can't pronounce the name of his own company then?

Machinations is pronounced:
Mak - in- ations

The ch is pronounced like the C in Cat.

Or so says my Dictionary. Of course, there's no accounting for the way you Yanks mangle English. ;-)

Now I know why Aaron gone to SF1. The PR coordinator Jasmine, for example http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

I always pronounced it 'Mash-in-ayshuns'.

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

"Mash" is a common mispronounciation, but the real thing is "mak."

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

I'm okay with Machinations. Its just pulling back the curtain to find out it is Malfaydor after all this time is bugging me.

Kind of like Magneato versus Magnetto, which sounds *way* cooler.

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

My grandfather always says "mash". I chuckle every time he does it.

I am a Mal'fah'dorian as well. Is anyone going to let Aaron know he can't even pronounce his own company name? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
 

In one of my recent e-mails I told Aaron that his pronunciation of Mal-fay-der has left the community in shock - so much so that we forgot about all the bugs in SE:V.

Magnetto sounds kinda like a tool.
