Excactly, But i was wondering is it pronounced Oeoeoeh, Ooooh or Aaah? --RhoninUser Rhonin Soren sig.pngSoren 09:37, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
My money is on "Ooooh". But then again, Asuras do not really own big lungs, so it might as well be "Oeoeoeh"...--Tuomir 10:03, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
I'm dutch so my Oooh's and Oeoeoeh's might not be the same as yours XD --RhoninUser Rhonin Soren sig.pngSoren 10:26, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
With Oeoeoeh i actually meant Oooeeeh --RhoninUser Rhonin Soren sig.pngSoren 10:27, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Well, I'm from Finland, so I'll just try to think with english pronouncing as well as I can... So it might not be the most accurate. Anyways, after thinking about the original topic, I presume it's a long, wailing "Ooooh", like some sort of ghost. At least, that might impress the Grawl the most.--Tuomir 10:34, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Oooh something shiny! - Infinite - talk 16:18, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Speaking of shiny, it seems like a lot of people on this wiki have Attention Defici--that rock is really pretty. Zolann The IrreverentUser Zolann The Irreverent Mysterious Summoning Stone.png 00:13, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

No that's a quaggan. :D Sneaker 01:57, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
its The Great Oouo - an be seen on one of the maps Getefix 15:39, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
It might be different place. Wasn't it referred as "the mighty Oooh" in some article?--Tuomir 15:49, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
It's rather more likely that the Mighty Oooh stands in the area "The Great Oouo". - Infinite - talk 16:32, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

there were only talking about the great oooh - maybe they wernt shown the spelling since it wasnt an anet emploee he wouldnt have known how to spell it - spelled oouo but still pronounced oooh Getefix 13:25, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

The wording confused me here, so, translated: "ArenaNet was talking about the idea of 'The Great Oouo', but perhaps they weren't shown a spelling of it when making it in-game, and so they didn't know how to spell what they had heard. Therefore, maybe it is pronounced one way, even though it is spelled a different way." At least, that's what I tried. —Jyavoc 03:39, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

worshipped/worshiped[edit]

Verbs ending in ‘p’

Most verbs ending in ‘p’, after an unstressed vowel, have no doubling of that final consonant in standard received British English or American English.
Here are some which follow the ‘most verbs’ rule: ‘develop’, ‘gossip’, ‘gallop’ – these become just ‘developing/developed’, ‘gossiping/gossiped’, ‘galloping/galloped’.
Even here, there are pesky exceptions: ‘worship’, ‘handicap’ and ‘kidnap’ become ‘worshipping/worshipped’, ‘handicapping/handicapped’ and ‘kidnapping/kidnapped’ in standard received British English.
I tried to change it to worshipped but an IP reverted my edit. --User The Holy Dragons sig.pngThe Holy Dragons 11:12, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
You are right and on the wiki we use AE, so it remains 'worshiped'. 87.97.118.160 11:17, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
Note that worshipped is British English. This wiki uses American spelling. Not that either one is more correct than the other. (Xu Davella 11:23, 26 February 2011 (UTC))
That's what the IP said. --User The Holy Dragons sig.pngThe Holy Dragons 11:24, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
Huh....Didn't even see that comment. That's what happens when it takes six minutes to upload an edit. :S (Xu Davella 11:40, 26 February 2011 (UTC))
it happens ^^ --User The Holy Dragons sig.pngThe Holy Dragons 11:46, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
To be honest, we don't have to edit an article just to change British English to American English. I recommend fixing important spellings when bigger edits are also being made. - Infinite - talk 15:55, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Tarzan 2[edit]

It reminds me a lot of the old guy on the disney film who managed the other monkeys to believe it was a mighty monster named Zugor just by using his amplificated voice. Lokheit 15:45, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Zardoz[edit]

I changed the trivia since Peter Fries mentioned he designed this event after the movie Zardoz --MagicFind (talk) 11:42, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
