I am going to go with the 6 people I am friends with IRL who never even considered pronouncing in la-lawnd over dudes on internet.
The guy I'm hanging out with now said he would probably punch anybody who pronounced it la-lawnd in the jaw, which seems a bit excessive to me! -- http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrlydlw2kYU21r0x924o1500gifru.gif http://img.imgcake.com/1326165368699gifme.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

I already acknowledged that, I'm just not going to start pronouncing it a way that sounds terrible regardless of its legitimacy.
I would like Rose's character less if I started pronouncing it la-lawnd, just like I would like Kanaya less if I pronounced her name kuh-nye-uh. Names are a big deal to me, so when they're written I go with what I prefer. I made the original post in the first place because I have seen a few videos from people where they pronounced it la-lawnd, and I had to immediately stop watching the videos every single time because I could not stand hearing it like that. It just sounds......ugh. -- http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrlydlw2kYU21r0x924o1500gifru.gif http://img.imgcake.com/1326165368699gifme.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nope, because blon-day sounds dumb.
Just like La-lawnd sounds dumb. Also names are not as set in stone in their pronunciation!

Lol English pronunciation. Literally have to descend into ridiculous UHN AY UGH CAH OO LAH to even stand a chance at getting the sound you're trying to make across.
Why hasn't written English been revised during the last 100 or so years? In Norway they update the written language every year to match the pronunciation people use, and every vowel always sounds the same. Same goes for Spanish, and German, and Japanese... Makes everything so much simpler. Anyway, this update made me realize: The Condesce's plan is to let the kids make a universe and then hijack it, isn't it?

Maybe she even succeeds, considering UU and uu are trolls who live on a planet where their race is near extinction... Yeah, this is what I think too. I feel silly for not realizing this earlier since it's already been known that the Condesce wants the kids to play the game and I already had figured that she was trying to recreate the troll world on earth, but yeah that seems like what she's trying to do. Maybe UU and uu are from the universe they eventually create. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The question then would be how could they make a new universe if they're in a Void Session? Assuming that's the case, it'll probably be due to something the old kids/trolls do once they show up.
Another thought. Since these kids' planets don't seem to have any monsters, I wonder if they still have denizens. -- First is mnk'boy'907, who looks fab with her gray skin and grandma poncho/shawl thing~ http://img.imgcake.com/nio/boypngbu.png - Nio ... Copied to Clipboard!

^We already know that they are going to make a new universe by inserting the Battlefield from B1 into B2's empty Skaia. We also know that the Alpha session planets have denizens. Jane's is Hemera and Dirk's is Yaldabaoth, for example.

I would guess there are denizens, but it is still possible that there aren't. The Jane walkaround did make mention of Hemera at one point, but a lot of the information in that flash is cryptic and hard to trust completely.
