This is the poem in original Latin. it may be found in the Anthologia Latina (No. 795)

Lumina coua genae flaui flexura capilli
In Ganymede suo flamma fuere loui.
luppiter in puerum quaerens sibi pauca licere
In puero statuit cuncta licere deus.
Oblitusque poli curas et murmura diuum
Et linguam laesae coniugis atque louem
Iliacum tulit ad superos, ad sidera sidus,
Et se tunc tandem credidit esse deum.
Vtque puer pellex uisu tactuque liceret,
Oscula nocte loui, pocula luce dabat.

translation hotes: In Latin the I at the front of a name or word is pronounced like the letter U in English. So Iuppiter is Upiter, or more aptly like the Spanish ll. Better represented by YU-piter. All letter C's are hard [k] sounds all letter G's are hard as well [guh]. Where you see instances of puero or puerum, puero= boy, puerum= boys [pl]. The letter r's are trilled, the best description of how to reproduce a trilled r is to place the tip of your tongue on the back of your teeth and say "errr." The letter V always pronounced like the letter W, so Vita is pronounced (Wee-tah).


Finally, dipthongs:

ae- as in ai in aisle: cārae, saepe
au- as ou in house: aut, laudō
ei- as ei in reign: deinde
eu- as Latin e + u, pronounced rapidly as a single syllable: seu (say-oo).
oe- as oi in oil: coepit, proelium
ui- as in Latin u + i, spoken as a single syllable like Spanish muy, or like English gooey, pronounced quickly as a single syllable. This diphthong occurs only in: huius, cuius, huic, cui, hui.


Welcome to brain overload.

Alright, according to 3 people I have spoken to today, the demo has been bugged! This happens from time to time, the Devs release new stuff and they break more things that they fix. It this case they released more stuff to the foundry since Thursday, so I am guessing that is what broke the mission.

The Scavenger Hunt Demo has been revised, and the final clue is an entirely different person and location. Hopefully this will resolve the bug that made completion of the demo impossible.

i think we need some new functionality for the site. right next to the 'thank you' button we need an 'electrocute user' button and a 'dancing with denis' button. the lucky recipient of that button has to endure a one hour square dancing session with denis while listening to bagpipes.

and...i wasn't just a nerd, i was one of those teacher's pet kinds of nerds.the kind everybody hated. LOL.

Voleron, you have GOT to make one for yourself! It's bad marketing if a producer doesn't use his own product. ;)

lol, it's in the works. I have to clear all of the other orders from the queue first! :)

i took 3 years of latin in high school. it was actually very helpful. i was a nerd and even won lots of prizes at our yearly latin convention where all the schools in the state of new jersey would meet and compete in various categories. i won first place in latin oration two of those years....had to memorize a full page of latin each time.

don't feel bad bren. we can [re]learn latin together. :-)

What makes Stonewall the best community is....

...that you can buy forum signatures for only 250,000 Energy Credits, at the Forum Signature Shop?

This is a bizarre thread ;)

I feel as though the thread creator should be sharing his feelings too :p

Well, I've been remiss in taking advantage of this.

Though with my perfectly junky rig, we may need to discuss additional fees for a photography sitting.

We'll chat.

if u need help, maybe i can volunteer to share the load :)

I wouldn't mind doing so, but I'd love for you to help me out:) next time we're in game together lets discuss it. :) :side:

I'm happy to help out however I can. My schedule should be easing some this week, as this grant submits.

Will find you. We'll kiki. :laugh:

New news

... that ghettoes like Stonewall Fleet are no longer called ghettoes, now that gay culture has all but eradicated the physical ones and replaced them with virtual ones.

...We've evolved beyond the 10%

.... that we are undoubtedly the most diverse community in STO, which, combined with our tradition of mutual respect and common goals to help us bridge those differences, helps make us one of the richest.

And we're pretty damn funny sometimes, eh?

Clearly easy access to liquor. No when I was I way a did miss the comradely, there is almost someone always on... space is big and cold, in fact it's cold as hell, you make it better.

the Breen Warship Siberia stands ready

I am away from my books which are all in my room, but I will post the untranslated version tomorrow 6 February...(bear in mind I am +9 from the Pacific coast of the US, +6 Eastern). If there is enough interest, I will post the translations and then the untranslated version afterwards.

I had some trouble queuing a PvE a week or two ago, and ended up playing in a PUG without any fleetmates. It was a night-and-day difference. No wonder we've found each other. We're a haven from immaturity and poor manners.
