EB Demotivators

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

why double y?

well, consider these:

qiyam "rising"

qayyam "someone who makes sth rise"

both are spelled the same in arabic of course, with one having a shadda (qayyam). notice how the latin alphabet is more sensitive to the change; anyone reading without knowlege of context will confuse the words together, if you write them the same in latin. remember, this only applies to latin writing, not the original alphabet (which I know you know).

and why one must keep inflection in transliteration: arabic, as you know, is synthetic, so inflection matters. remember that its not written in the arabic alphabet all the time, since said alphabet does not rely on short vowels (I imagine you know about the long vowels), but it must be in latin, as the latin alphabet relies on vowel letters, regardless of length. besides, I can't understand transliterated arabic unless its as near perfect as possible

Ok here is my shot:

cit Napoleon ;-)

[Ghaust the Moor]

Why does it say knight of heaven?

[MerlinusCDXX]

Why does it say knight of heaven?

That screenie looks to be from another mod. The reason I say this is that in EB, IIRC, the Epeirote general looks just like the other Greek generals, and they don't look like that guy. I know, lets play guess the mod, I'll start with Diadochi or XGM. There's 2 of my 3 guesses.

[Jebivjetar]

It's from on-line tournament.

[Tellos Athenaios]

And you don't get generals in those battles (or ordinary custom battles for that matter): you get captains.

[Fluvius Camillus]

It is from the EB online tournament, a practice battle (EB MP 1.2 + official fixes). This was taken from a battle in which Knight of Heaven participated as Epiros. I know they are captains, but I see no need to be precise like that...

You're awfully close to trolling there.

[Moros]

You're awfully close to trolling there.

Actually he's laughing with himself, no?

[Ibrahim]

[Aemilius Paulus]

This thread is too good to die:

[Mikhail Mengsk]

[Vasiliyi]

Very nice AP, whats even funnier is that your a virgin not because of the game.

[Fluvius Camillus]

Another one:

[Rilder]

[Alsatia]

ROFL


Nice one.


Are you by any chance, Hitler????

[Rilder]

ROFL


Are you by any chance, Hitler????

That was my way of making fun of people who blitz. I'm a total turtler.

I do share Hitlers Birthday though.

DIE YOU FREAKING FACIST!! OOHhhh!!??....

(some random idiot pushes me over then continues ranting....)

Joking. Do you really???

[antisocialmunky]

Eh, it doesn't manage to hold up well compared to:

[A Very Super Market]

About 1 out of 365 people do as well....

[Alsatia]

Now that's funny.

[Vasiliyi]

Here is my attempt.

[Alsatia]

here's mine

[Aemilius Paulus]

Here is my attempt.

Booo!

Alright, so you are a Romaioktonoi fanatic, but please, at least make your highly radical views somewhat palatable by wrapping them in humour. Which the picture has none!

As for Rilder & Alsatia: marvellous demotivators!!

[chenkai11]

Here is my attempt.

I really can't play the Romani anymore...

[Alsatia]

Booo!

Thanks for the thumbs up.

Sorry for the added criticism, but the Romaioktonoi one is rather a pledge or establishment sign rather than a demotivator.

[Vasiliyi]

AP, you have a warped sense of humor, I wouldn't expect you to understand it. Its ok, not everyone is made to feel human emotion.

Ok, I guess it isn't a demotivater, but the point it makes is clear. I'm sure some of the other Romaiktonoi would agree with the content (if not all of them).

[Maion Maroneios]

Very nice AP, whats even funnier is that your a virgin not because of the game.

OK, I seriously laughed at that one
