Message | Hypermnestra's been changed. Pelias is in the Greco-Roman area though. |
Date | 11:31:35, January 13, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Well, then give us another one in Normand territory. |

Message | We can not 'give' you another city, these renaming are based on the dominant culture that the city is located in. Hypermnestra and Orestes, and FDP, being the only party with a HQ there gets that decision. |

Message | How about Pelias > Chfalonie? [[That one is based off a Normanization of a greek name]] |

Message | OOC: That sounds like bologna, which raises the question fo why the heck that word is spelled so different than its pronounced.. What about Chferian? |

Message | OOC: Chfalonie does not sound like balogna (in English or Italian) the a is an /A/ sound, not a /@/ sound. Furthermore, the stress is not on the o. I'm struggling to see how "Chfarian" could be a Normanization of a Greek word, or a Hellenization of a Norman word. Chphalonie would be an alternate spelling. We could try something Normanno-Latin like "Netrie" I still like Vrct. If we want to go for something very simple, we could call it "Rou". |

Message | I was thinking, since Skydronoi technically is'nt in a cultural zone (significant upside down triangle in the Northern parts), you could use that instead of Pelias. |
Date | 21:06:06, January 21, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | In Bizena, our regional office is in Gelai, not Skydronoi I guess we could change that, though. |
Date | 00:36:20, January 23, 2008 CET | From | Revolutionary State Socialist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Gelai is my home city though, so I got dibs on its name. |
Date | 03:57:36, January 23, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Fine. We'll change our regional headquarters to Skydronoi, which shall hereafter be named Vrct. Happy? |
Date | 23:14:15, January 23, 2008 CET | From | Revolutionary State Socialist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Yes, though you should be happy I'm only taking one city naming for myself and letting you guys have the rest of the fun :p |
Date | 19:03:04, January 29, 2008 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | I think this bill may need to be scrapped, per the DSP "Culture is irrelevant" |
Date | 04:57:21, January 30, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Heh. |
Date | 19:47:08, February 10, 2008 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
Message | Stick an extra 'a' in Mt. Carmel and you've got a mountain of caramel |
Date | 00:27:33, February 11, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the City Renaming Act |
