As for actually contributing on this... I think it is really too early to say a similar triangle is forming. Flash and Jaedong could be part of such, but Flashes recent struggles, as well as Jaedong's make you wonder about how stable such a triangle would be. | ||

It's way too esoteric to expect newer reads to know every real name and match it to the nick we've been following in VODs. Isn't that what the TLPD is for? | ||

esoteric One entry found. Main Entry: es·o·ter·ic Pronunciation: \ˌe-sə-ˈter-ik, -ˈte-rik\ Function: adjective Etymology: Late Latin esotericus, from Greek esōterikos, from esōterō, comparative of eisō, esō within, from eis into; akin to Greek en in — more at in Date: circa 1660 1 a: designed for or understood by the specially initiated alone <a body of esoteric legal doctrine — B. N. Cardozo> b: requiring or exhibiting knowledge that is restricted to a small group <esoteric terminology> ; broadly : difficult to understand <esoteric subjects> 2 a: limited to a small circle <engaging in esoteric pursuits> b: private , confidential <an esoteric purpose> 3: of special, rare, or unusual interest <esoteric building materials> — es·o·ter·i·cal·ly \-i-k(ə-)lē\ adverb Not saying that you do want to increase your audience or not... but even someone like me who's lurked forever... TLPD means what? If you make your material such that only you understand it, then you will never grow your audience. Up to you really, I get my SC thrills watching VODs more than anything else. | ||

In latin, the adjectives generally go on the back of nouns, as opposed to english where it's the other way around. And there are three genders, one of them being neutrum, as is the case with the word "solium", throne. Therefore, the ending of the adjective, in this case "vacuus" becomes -um instead of the masculine -us, id est, "vacuum". So, we end up with "solium vacuum" - the empty throne. None of this really relates to the SC-oriented part of the article (which I thoroughly enjoyed) but given the theme I thought it would be appropriate to nit-pick a little bit  EDIT: Whoops, typo. | ||
