The consolation match, also known as the "third place playoff" is used for placing 3rd and 4th. For example, the semi-final losers in single elimination will play to determine 3rd place. Consolation match is not another name for losers bracket final.
Aegis is pronounced ee-jis. In the US we often use "auspices" instead so many people don't know this word.
Impetus has its accent on the first syllable, not the second. It means "a moving force; impulse; stimulus." When in doubt, most words in English have their accent on the third-to-last syllable. (Better yet, look it up.)
As yet, something has not happened. As of late, as yet. No "as of yet."
EDT is used during the summer when daylight savings is in effect. EST is used otherwise. EST is not a catch-all for East coast time. Use ET instead.
Thank you for listening.

I was under the impression is was pronounced that way. I've actually thought so for the last 20 or so years... I read something about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegis_Combat_System and always pronounced it that way.
