Yskonyn Posted November 19, 2004 Author Share Posted November 19, 2004 ROTFLMAO! Stikky, I am not lazy, I am a pilot! Anyway, I do think non-dutch speaking chaps here are still not going to know how to pronounce IJSKONIJN (which is, of course not spelled correctly in relation to my name), so it still stands... Phonetic version of my nick, who dares? (Dutch speaking people not allowed to participate) A tip: eas-ko-nean is not correct. Oh and diesel: did you run 'kraak' through a translation engine or what? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Whatever it is, I dare say you are well suited for Peng. Be afraid. - A non-Peng friend. [ November 19, 2004, 06:17 PM: Message edited by: Tarkus ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not lazy? So what's that auto-pilot for? Btw when you've finished with manual and feel the need to take on real opponents (PBEM that is) drop me line.

General Bolt Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 In order to pronounce Yskonyn correctly, I'd need to rip my tongue out. I think your real name is Y. S. Konyn. Again, your laziness precludes typing the appropriate periods. Also you state you are a pilot. Correction were a pilot. Say goodbye to your job, relationships, health and peace of mind. All your waking hours will be consumed by thes games and the BFC message boards. It will affect your brain in ways you haven't even thought of :eek: , such as: When you're on the runway you be thinking "Level 1 view" During take off "Level 2 thru 4." About the time your pulling up the landing gear level 5. In your high altitude flight "level 9." You'll want to hit Shift C to see the units on the ground better.

Yskonyn Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Thanks stikky, I will! @Colt: Really?! Damn, now that I think of it, I do happen to catch myself looking for the 'camera angle' buttons when I am doing my usual spying on the neighbours... *shivers* ROTFL, no my name is not Y. S. Konyn... That would be a stupid name in dutch! I don't even dare to think about what first name Y would give me! Oh and gentlemen, I suggest we ban the word 'lazy'. Let's just say 'you're being a pilot' when someone's lazy, sounds more polite! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yskonyn Posted November 28, 2004 Author Share Posted November 28, 2004 If you pronounce it "Ice-K-Nine" you're close. If you mastered that, try changing the "-K-" into Co and you'll have it right. So, "Ice-Co-Nine" it is. Direct (free) translation is Icerabbit BTW: If you guys ever see another IJskonijn or Yskonyn on the web, kill it! I am the ONLY legal, rightful owner of the name and been using it since 1990 or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painfbat Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 If I'm correct, it should be written as IJSKONIJN. Guess you're Belgium after all. Welcome to CM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yskonyn Posted December 9, 2004 Author Share Posted December 9, 2004 Don't ever insult me again Painfbat! :mad: You are correct however on how to spell it. Though as names can be written anyway one wishes it's not with double IJ's, but with double Y's. And say; it does look better, right? So let's keep it an aestethic (spelling?) issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
