Re: Encyclopedia Malfadorica (Wiki)
Say, how do you go about starting one of these things anyway? I'd think that other 4X games and such could use something like this... Encyclopedia Hydrargyrorum* anyone? 
*for those of you who don't know, Hydrargyrum is the Latin name of the element mercury, or quicksilver, which is the developer of MOO3... no I didn't know, I looked up the Latin name of the element on Google!

I knew. But then I have a degree in Chemistry, which would be an unfair advantage here.  It's where the Hg symbol comes from. Hydrargyrum. It literally means water-silver. (Hydros, water; argentum/argyrum, silver.)
However, given that Quicksilver is singular, it should just be Hydrargyra, not Hydrargyrorum. '-orum' is the plural genitive. |

How about reading the instructions on the encyclopedia site, or read over the early Posts in this thread. If you still have questions then ask them.
