You probably don't care, but today is the 1,234th day of Jul's existence, just sayin.
I think for the occasion I should ask, how do you pronounce the word, Jul?
I pronounce it like the word jewel.

I pronounce Jul like "jewel", even though it's really supposed to be like "yule" =)

Anyways, happy 1234th day of the board, Jul =D

...and did we forget about Keitaro's birthday too? =/

Given that the name came from Just Us League, I call it Juhl, and it sort of tied to the month of July, since that was when this variant started.

I thought I was the only one who did this. Huh.

I do tie it pretty heavily to July, too... hell, I did with the first as well.

Last time I checked, the closest thing to an official pronunciation is, well...

Yule with a J instead of a Y. Simple.

Easier than Acmlm at least.

I never had trouble saying "Ack-mulm", although that pronunciation tends to freak out some people IRL.

I do get annoyed when people get too zealous about their preferred pronunciation. Like people who are like "It's A-C-M-L-M, dammit! Everyone who says it differently is wrong!". I've noticed that it's mostly the people who spell it out who can be like that.

I say Acmlm as 'Ack-limm', which is bizarre and possibly almost unique.

Very unique, especially since I thought everybody was in agreement that it was pronounced by clearing your throat for 2 seconds...

That is exactly how I've always pronounced it... and I always thought that was unique, too.

I got Jul right, er, right away. Jewel, Jul(y), whatever.

Acmlm I pronounce as "ah ts mlmuh". Well, that's how I do it in my mind, I never tried to pronounce it.

More fancy pronountions tied to Jul?

I realize Xkeeper is probably "ex-keeper", but I think "ix-keeper", because Czech. Oh well.
