The new TOME engine version is really cool but also hogs down resources to the point of being unplayable.

You don't know the half of it though.  I think it's easier having a name people have to make up a pronunciation for, as opposed to one that everyone thinks is easy to pronounce and does it wrong.  Ahem.
I feel your pain, man.  I keep telling them the third ə is shortened.

That's the popular one.
But Lovecraft wanted it to be nigh-inpronounciable.

So it's probably more like 'Cthlul-hloo"

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

Technically every other use of the "th" sound in Lovecraft is the Egyptian version, as in Thoth.

So k-TOO-loo

When I'm on the computer I have a tendency to remove the cap on my wireless mouse and absently mess around with it, twirling it in my hands and the like.  I took it off, then went and did something else for a while, and when I came back to the computer I realized I had forgotten to put it back on and I don't know where I put it.
