OSR BECMI, how do you say it?

[The Sigil]

"WAWT-see" for me. To rhyme with "yahtzee"

So much this.

Also, stumbled across this the other day while prepping a Christmas Movies Trivia Quiz for a work party... dates back to the January 2023 OGL controversy, pronunciation in this video is pretty much how I say WotC (granted, I'm also apt to call them "Wizards").


I should note, the only purpose of linking this video is to make my pronunciation of WotC clear - I don't want to derail this thread with reruns of January threads.

besh-mee. I was going through a loglan phase when I started getting back into older D&D editions.

"Becmi," rhymes with Becky.

I grew up with BECMI, my first game was my best mate's older bro DMing from the red box. I never heard the term BECMI until much much later, and say Beck-Me
