    Irrelevant lesson as to why Google Translate doesn't work:

    The verb "to agree" is aontaigh. The present tense of the "I" part of the verb is aontaim. So, I agree with you is aontaim leat. Leat broadly means with you. (Le + tu.) However, Google takes most words on their own resulting in aontaim leat being translated as you agree.

    /End pointless lesson.

    Basically, Conrad likes to use a dead language and I think he would slowly kill the OT too...

    There are always the rebels...And the rebel, in this case, is one the "Paladin King" cannot or will not please. Conrad is obviously one of them as he is rebelling and staging a coup right now.

    Me, well I'm technically one because I never voted on your campaign in the first place. Catch me if you can!

    Did I say that I was in that post? I merely said that I was rich, not popular. Popularity wins in the end over money, however much of it is spent.

    As for popularity, I admit that I don't have as much of that valuable stuff as Ghost or Conrad, or some of the others do. But at least I have left my mark, and I can walk away and be proud of that.

    I agree with you there. Latin isn't the official language of the OT; English is. If Conrad seeks to confuse the people in general because of their relative lack of knowledge about such languages, then he isn't going to garner any support.

    Run a campaign as an equal...it might get you a lot farther than riding in on your high horse and proclaiming yourself dictator over the masses...who for the most part are not flocking to your cause.

    ----------------------------------


    And as for your Roman legions, again they are hopelessly obsolete and can be dealt with even by Digger's Interceptor...

    At least I have one good thing going for me: I'm out of the reach of both, and can fire when I please...the fact of the matter is that I can't be bothered to do so right now...

    Actually, I didn't use google translator. And what I said was: "I concur. Screw Latin."

    I see. Well, where did you learn to say that? I was just making the point that English expressions don't really turn out well in Irish. Like when you say screw, it literally means a screw unless you know the English use of the word. Anyway, that really doesn't matter. What matters is that Conrad thinks he can come in here and show off his dead language in front of us to look cool and I don't like it. What kind of despot would attempt to communicate to his people in a tongue not of the vernacular?








    A bad one. That's why we have our Paladin King!

    This is very interesting, Richard. I never knew that English was a "dead" language.

    ^That's what I was referring to. I really just included the comment to keep my post on topic.

    I didn't learn to say it, I used a translator. But not google translator.

    Does it seem odd to anyone else that someone is asking for a "vote" to be allowed to null the results of an election, and impose himself as sovereign? Should one really ask permission to declare oneself autarch in a coup d'etat? If your going to aggressively seize power, then just seize it.
