MERGED: How do you say the site name? / What's with Eeee Ennn World?

[BigFreekinGoblinoid]

Wow, I had no idea so many people would be pronouncing this any way other than eE eN World. I guess I have been in high tech way too long, and am used to thinking in 'initialeeze'.

Any truth to the rumour that Morrus will be changing the name to "Superhappiness Land" after 4E drops?

Like "EE En" World.

Although, to be fair ...

Plus, the IBM thing...

... I word with IBM government consulting all the time, and my side of the equation will often refer to the boys in blue as Ibm (Ih-bum), similar to ... uh, the guy from the 13th Warrior: So-and-so Ibn Whatever (which, I can see, was pointed out after I started writing this).

I did always wonder if the awards were supponsed to be pronounced with a leading long E, however.

I think Morrus has answered the question, look at the top of your browser.

Okay, very funny, but whoever changed the email alerts just broke my email rule that routed my ENWorld emails to a specific folder. Heh.

If you're saying "N-World" you're wrong.

I guess I'll be wrong then.

Not that it matters, particularly!

Whew, that's a relief. I guess that means I can still hang out around here!

I just saw that, that's so hillarious!

I used to say "N-world" but then the other guys in my game say "EE-EN world" which sounds more like "Ian world."

Eeee Ennn World?

Whenever I am on the boards my tab for EnWorld reads "Eeee Ennn World". Is this a deliberate move, or is there something wrong?

I can just see the jokes about how the awards are chosen if they were pronounced like in eeny-meeny-miney-mo.

*lmao* That's hilarious! Especially since it looks like zombies are saying the page titles.
