Looks interesting. Still a long time away though so who knows what the end product will look like.

success => failure

I'll add I'm seeing the same as others. I tend to just submit my post and then move to another tab while it does its thing then come back a while later and its done. I have also noticed that when trying to browse to an earlier page on a long thread after reading the page I currently have open that the forum sits with a loading circle and doesn't ever seem to load the selected page unless I refresh the page.

poetry => haiku

keep => discard

Hmmm time to find an appropriate avatar methinks!

phone => dial

movie => cinema

new => novel

pi => transcendental To quote wikipedia:

ball => sphere

Done

World => Earth

Hi Charon, thanks for pointing out the mistake. I won't pretend to remember how I came to the conclusion I did (first post was 8 years ago, yikes!) so cannot defend the error. I've been pretty happy leaving most of the discussion throughout this thread as is and not updating the initial post, but given this is plain old wrong I will update my original statement and just state the speedmax affects everything as you say.

Laser => photons

Avogadro's number => mole Avogadro's number = 6.02 x 10^23, 1 mole = 6.02 x 10^23 particles

dancing school => instructor

on => off

Inca => Aztecs

Classic => historic

cold "Revenge is a dish best served cold." => proverb

petal => rose

holy => hand grenade

Keep us posted, it would be great if you found Rivendell somewhere or something, but I agree that this phrase is probably the extent of the reference. I love how much the Ascaron developers added to the games in tribute of other things in life that inspired / entertained them. I've never quite seen a game series do it quite to the same extent as they did.

So going down a google rabbit hole reveals a fair bit about the phrase on that grave stone. It looks like the quote is a Lord of the Rings reference. The phrase "et eärello endorenna utúlien" translates from Quenya (one of Tolkiens languages for the elves) into "Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come" and is part of a phrase spoken by Elendil (father of Isildur who first "killed" Sauron) when he came to Middle Earth and repeated by Aragorn when crowned: Since Middle-Earth is east of the great sea maybe it suggests that a village to the east is inspired by a town from the Lord of the Rings?
