They use apostrophes differently to us in the Sultanate of Ifat. |

If I criticize the Sultanate of Ifat, will I be told to 'take it to the Blue Fez?' |

Out-of-character questions: Do you use AK-47 Republic (and which edition)? Are your Sultanate of Ifat games solo, or do you regularly game with other folks and their countries (no doubt shining examples of 'democrazy')? |

Oooh FOW Modern. I heard tale of folks putting something together, but didn't know if anyone had worked up much in the way of actual rules/equipment/whatnot. How is it? |

Oh, and I endorse and/or approve roleplaying as a part of any good wargaming. I think I make all games into roleplaying games, which is why I generally don't care for the more absract Euro-style boardgames. |

Make's me wonder what they did to cause such a severe repercussion? |

I must have missed the IFAT Air and Sea Defense Zone announcement on the news today. Thanks for the update. Seems rather hypocritical of them……. |

Back off the Apostrophe Abuse criticism! That's MY job!
No one is allowed to get stifles for that but me! |
| Mako11 | 05 Dec 2013 9:21 p.m. PST |
I thought it was spelled A'pos'trophe'. |
| John the OFM | 05 Dec 2013 9:37 p.m. PST |
No.
According to the Apostrophe Abusers, the sole purpose of an apostrophe is to herald the coming of an "s".
Its use before a "p" is highly inappropriate and can lead to … I would rather not say. As dear Sister Alma warned us "Apostrophe abuse leads to self abuse." |
ponders nirvana.
