Well a very short part with Aaron in it and it was filled with lots of old news lol. I am quite sure that Aaron pronounced Malfador wrong I can't accept that I have been saying it wrong for over 5 years.

Hey, he put my "Whoa, I can post blogs!" blog in there!
Guess it pays to have a catchy title!
Aaron looked very... well, "tired" is a good way of putting it nicely - I guess Warmaster really was all over him those past few weeks

I was frankly much more impressed with Jasmine.

But seriously, I think Aaaron made one telling comment and that was about Modders. He clearly expects that they will provide the meat of the game while his job is to build the skeleton.

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. ;-)

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

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?
