I think someone should record their pronunciations with a microphone, zip the resulting wav files, and post a link to the zip.
I won\'t do it, though, because I don\'t have a microphone, and because my voice sucks :)

LOL Thoril

I think this is a waste of time Whitti and Corsairk8! all things you wrote here took at least 5 minutes, in which you could\'ve done something more useful for Planeshift!
What should all these fans think? :D
