No way. It is not calsulus, nor is the short form cals, or his full username theCalsGenius.

I ... realize that? It still sounds better as Calsy. Calky is pretty awkward.

Eh, I find Calky to sound fine. And on a side note, I pronounce "Brttrx" letter-by-letter.

That's about it.

xaelar: "Zay Lar"
Brttrx: 1. "Brit Tix"; 2. "Burr Turks"
yeah Brttrx is the only member I've encountered that I when I first saw his name my tongue instantly collapsed in despair. Now I use the 2nd pronounciation, even though both are wrong and so is everyone else's pronounciation of his name in this thread.

as for my own name, you can pronoucning it as "bob".

Uh, he actually said it was Brettrix, on account of his actual name being Brett, or something.

Huh. I knew that his real name was Brett, so I figured "Brett rocks" would be the most obvious interpretation, seeing as, you know, he rocks. I guess I stand corrected.

I pronounce 5aved as simply "faved", while I pronounce 4aved as "fourved". Just wondering if there's anyone else out there who does that.

I thought 5aved is (or was) prounced as "five-aved" and "4aved" is pronounced as "four-aved". I don't know, maybe that's what's right.
