Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
So we've all concluded he can't pronounce the name of his own company then?
Machinations is pronounced:
Mak - in- ations
The ch is pronounced like the C in Cat.
Or so says my Dictionary. Of course, there's no accounting for the way you Yanks mangle English. ;-) |

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
"Mash" is a common mispronounciation, but the real thing is "mak."

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
I'm okay with Machinations. Its just pulling back the curtain to find out it is Malfaydor after all this time is bugging me.
Kind of like Magneato versus Magnetto, which sounds *way* cooler.

My grandfather always says "mash". I chuckle every time he does it.
I am a Mal'fah'dorian as well. Is anyone going to let Aaron know he can't even pronounce his own company name?

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
In one of my recent e-mails I told Aaron that his pronunciation of Mal-fay-der has left the community in shock - so much so that we forgot about all the bugs in SE:V.

Re: Video Interview with Aaron Hall
Magnetto sounds kinda like a tool.
