Oh, and @Caesar, I started with that PM, but never got the time to properly finish it. I'll finish it after I have Greek at 10...

ancient greek? a fellow classicist, perhaps?

Yes! I am taking ancient Greek, Latin, Ancient Cultures and History as four of my subjects at university (the fifth being French)
I just love learning it!!!

been studying those for four years now. you have my pity

@Caesar, I'd like to point out Wanderer ruined Latin for me.

@AstralHunter , if you don't mind me butting in (I couldn't help but overhear ) I'd like to know hows TII ruined latin for you.

@LordZeus, he ruined it for me by explaining some of the pronunciations. For example:
1. The famous "Veni. Vedi. Veci." (which means "I came. I saw. I conquered.") is not pronounced with an actual v-sound, such as in vain, but as a w-sound, as in wane. That means it's actually pronounced "Weeny. Weedy. Weechy." How am I supposed to take a Roman general seriously when he speaks like that?
2. The gn-sound is extremely accentuated; the name Magnus isn't pronounced "Mag-nus", but rather "Mang-nyoos". So much for cool-sounding Latin names... >_<
3. Speaking of the no-longer-awesome Latin names, you know Cicero and Caesar? Yeah, the c-sound isn't an s-sound, but a k-sound, like in my home language. That means it's "Kikero" and "Kaesar", not "Sisero" and "Saesar". (Although, the German, Dutch, Afrikaans, etc. word for Emperor is Keiser, so I shouldn't be too surprised about this one.)

@AstralHunter I love Roman history. But now that has taken a sore hit. I never knew those stuff (I mean just think how it must have sounded when a Roman General said "Weeni.")

BTW @TheIllusiveIntellect maybe you should tag everyone to remind them of the deadline. I think that they have forgotten.

I don't think they have forgotten. It's just a busy season for a lot of people. Me included.

I've been quite busy, but I'll work on it later.

I have actually been working on my post throughout the week - I have 3500 words already.

I haven't forgotten about it either, I just have a lot going on. I really hope to be able to do it soon.

@LordZeus, I will notify the users once I deem it necessary to do so. Life, work and academics take precedence over any free time hobbies (which, although I consider this an occupation), this is.
So when multiple individuals are less active, I will be patient... If it was one or two individuals, I'd give them a final deadline, but since that is not the case, I won't do so...

@CandyWizard, @AstralHunter, @SpiritedWolfe, @StupidSoup, @Steggy- Can you guys please submit your Trial 2 posts at the latest on the 21st of March please... I will be adding the following Trial post on the 22nd, so please, please do not make me penalize anyone.

I know life can be a pain and a <insert appropriate word here>, but you guys have had two weeks of grace, and now get two more, so please...
