I just realized I have the poll and the swatches mixed up XD

I fixed it now! There's still 9 more days to place your votes!

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on October 05, 2024, 02:28:23 PMI am skeptical this will get a high participation rate but it sounds like a good idea. Has there ever been a coordinated effort to expand Talossan vocabulary? We have tens of thousands of words which is good for a conlang but it might be a fun exercise to have a word translation drive to expand the number of Talossan words even higher and improve the translator. AI might have some implications here.

Personally I think, more than words, we need: sayings, colloquialisms, and proverbs.

L.L. Zamenhof felt that these were absolutely necessary to breathe life into a language. Say what you want about Esperanto, it is one of the most successful, well known, and most used conlangs.

You know what, I did consider combining the two by inverting 3A from green field and red cross to red field and green cross.

Well our previous poll ended in a tie, so now this is the tie breaker!

This poll will run for the next 2 weeks.

2B	3A

Wonderful! Thank you again for this great honour!

-Green Town

Wonderful! In that case I would like: The Green Town Pursuivant

-TFF

I have done a lot of brainstorming on this and I have come up with the following top 3, more or less in order or preference:

• Green Town: The setting of Something Wicked This Way Comes. The first Bradbury novel I ever read. Still one of my favorites and a formative one from my youth.
• Lakewood: The Lakewood Theatre in Dallas, TX (I don't think it's there anymore) was a formative place in my young adulthood where I learned a love of performance and amateur musical theater.
• Joyland: The titular setting of the Stephen King novel. Another one of my favorites, and a coming of age story that really hits home for me. I read it every year.

-TFF

The essence of Talossa summarized in two sentences. Amazing!

We currently have a 3-way tie between options 2B, 3A, and 3C!

Don't forget to cast your vote, you have 5 more days!

I also set it to allow you to change your vote, so feel free to change your mind until the polls close on 1 OCT!

This is a great honour, and I thank the Squirrel Viceroy of Arms as well as the Dean for consideration!

I will think of some options for an appropriate title.

Thank you again!

Thank you! What was it that was throwing it off?

It is a little confusing lol, glad you found it!

So I have been rolling around the idea for designing a tartan for use by citaxhiéns of Maricopa and I wanted to get your opinion!

Below are several designs I've created using dark red and green for Talossa, and the white, lime green, and orange of the Maricopa flag.

Please excuse the weird table formatting, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
If you would like to see a larger version of any of the swatches, you can right click it and open the image in a new tab/window or save it to your computer.

I've set the poll to run through the end of Setemvar.

Maricopa 2B	Maricopa 3A	Maricopa 3B
Maricopa 3C	Maricopa 4B

I made a team but may not be able to make the live draft.
