It doesn't follow No. 7. So you know.

Everything but No. 7 is being followed, so win for New Vegas. :bunny:

1. It follows all 4 so yes.
2. No smiting just evolution.
3. Yes, but not completely unfavouring of one aspect.
4. Truely it dost.
5. Somewhat, but not overly so.
6. Where's my two headed bear shirt ?, Oh lord don't forsake me this.
7. As long as those things are good and balanced it does not have to be fair.
8. But leaveth those that favour the gnarly players alone.
9. Wait and see, someone will whine allways.
10. Please don't hurt me.

11. Let the fishy ones have true energy to smite the wicked for thy holy bull.

It's an attempt at Middle English, I suggest you try read it and understand it or try http://www.csun.edu/~sk36711/WWW/Common%20Files/megrammar.pdf and then understand it

Actually, it's Middle English. If you typed it in Old English, I think everyone would have a real hard time understanding it and just take it for gibberish.

Example of Old English:

F?der ūre tū te eart on heofonum,
Sī tīn nama ?ehālgod.
Tōbecume tīn rī?e,
?ewurte eīn willa, on eorean swā swā on heofonum.
ūrne ?ed??hwāmlīcan hlāf syle ūs tō d??,
and forgyf ūs ūre gyltas, swā swā wē forgyfae ūrum gyltendum.
And ne ?el?d tū ūs on costnunge, ac āl?s ūs of yfele.
Sōtlī?e.

My old english is pretty rusty but I think that you can get arrested for doing that to owls. But maybe I misread it. :shrug:

/Brain broke.

Father of ours, thou who art in heaven,
Be thy name hallowed.
Come thy riche (=kingdom),
Worth (=manifest) thy will, on earth as also in heaven.
Our daily loaf do sell (=give) to us today,
And forgive us of our guilts as also we forgive our guilty
And do not lead thou us into temptation, but alese (=release/deliver) us of (=from) evil.
Soothly.

Compare the texts to eachother, try to read out the Old English one aloud. Remember that they didn't really have grammar back then, they wrote it as they pronounced it.

Number Seven is not being followed and number eight wasn't followed in Vegas

» Fri Oct 24, 2008 4:01 pm

I think Number 8 was followed, they did a great job IMO.

Example of Old English:

Very nice, Savage I wish I paid more attention in school to able to read old english.
Any one else certain dialects up to today ( though not so much ) kept in with the pronounciation of certain of these words but not the spelling in england.

Ure ( or oor ) is still in use in places such as Tyneside, or Cumbria.

I shall follow all these Commandments

» Fri Oct 24, 2008 8:18 am

4 voted 0, but it does do at least 2, so they just mad.

» Fri Oct 24, 2008 3:55 pm

Old English, like Victorians, is like how Yoda speaks.

I am not so sure about OP's commandment, but I do sure this is another buggy :fallout: game.

» Fri Oct 24, 2008 5:31 am

Well..,

#2 is just confusing

#5 is just not practical

#6: WTF??

#7 Is entirely subjective (and I could care less who gets DLC first)

#8 Is impossible

#9: the Jury is still out.

In all fairness i should have discounted all of these and just given them a 10. I split the difference and gave them an 8
