Love Bierce... +25 points.

I've been a fan of "Bitter" Bierce for years, Un4 and have several collections of his work (including a copy of the Devil's Dictionary, which is a hoot! ;) )...

And Fi? Does that mean we can call you FM now? For Fiere Mary?  ;D


fiere redfern

Cult - Jim Jones

lawl - I prefer Fi over FM, thanks much =P but replace Fi with my real first name and y'all would be callin' me GM  ;)

GM? Uh...Gertrude? Gardinia? Geneva? Georgia? Gizela? Goldie? Greta? Guadalupe? (stop me when I hit the right one!  ;D)

Cocktail - Twist

Wrong on all counts, Threl  ;D

I'll give you two hints and leave you to it:

1. It's Latin in origin
2. It's a commonly mispronounced name (you know how 'G' can have two sounds? Yeah...)

Go nuts! ^_^

Ah...so it's Gillian?   ;D (I'd guess more, but I gotta go work! ;) )

And nice guesses, Buz!

Got it one, Threl =)

Now pronounce it right and I'll give you a present when you finally get your dorf butt in game =P

Retrieved - Discovered

I've always heard it pronounced with a hard "Gee", Fi...like a fish gill...Gill-eeun. ;) But we tend to saw the edges off of words here in the South...so ya never know! ;D

fiere redfern

Discovered - Experienced

ROFL - must be because you have the same background my mother does - her entire family is from the regions south of the Mason-Dixon. She was reading Trinity by Leon Uris and read "Gillian" as "Gill-eeun" instead of "Jillian" as Mr. Uris (being Irish) probably would've pronounced it.

So congrats! I now owe you... something... I'll figure it out when I get in game =P

Buzan

Experienced - Entrepreneur

Fi, do I get anything for trying :P ?

Entrepeneur - Olin

If it's latin, I'd think Gaea, personally :P

Olin - Cup

Hehe, sure Buz  :D
Gaea's an awesome name - though it'd be kinda weird I think to be named after the Goddess of the Earth  :P Nevermind that lots of names are direct derivatives from the names of the greek/roman gods and goddesses  ::)

Cup - World

Italy all the way.
