Personally I call it i-n-t. Just a moment ago I noticed that it was spelled init. By the way, what the hell does it stand for anyway?

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

Yeah, I also figure it's short for initialization so I just pronounce it with a hard 't' and minus the '-ialization.'

tc-hur-grun-dle, because I wanted to give that kobolt one more happy feeling before he fell down into my deathpit, bugger should not have walked over my bridge  :)

I have always pronounced it "in-ish", because it is short for initialization.

I think it's a vastly amusing thought that elephants are so afraid of heights that when Dwarves invented the Z-axis, they couldn't bear to face dwarves in combat anymore.

I always pronounced it "innit" like the British people in Guy Richie pictures.

I suspect a much too large number of DF players are hikikomori. Makes me wonder how many would really have troubles with the Bay12 meetups, though.

Also, thanks for the indirect link to AstroBunny via your icon.
