It seems whoever chronicles my dynasty has taken a particular liking to the name "Malcolm"...

Spoiler:

Others may bear different names, but you, Malcolms, are "The Great"!
XD

Spoiler: Other stuff about these bynames

I have no idea why that guy is Mathgamain I. of Sweden. Of Sweden is definitely correct, his main achievement was in fact conquering Sweden, and he spent most of the remainder of his life there, too (defeating uprisings from pretty much every single Duke in all of Sweden), but why he has a number and the others don't is a mystery (his main title was, of course, still King of Scotland ).
Also, it's ironic that the guy who most deserves to be called "The Great" is the one who isn't. Emperor Artus the Wise conquered Finland and England, and saved all of Europe by leading an alliance of nearly all Christian kingdoms (including Byzantium!) against the Mongols into the greatest battle during the entire game (there were nearly 100'000 men on that battlefield, even though you usually won't have more than 10'000 in one province at once!). He was undeniably wise - his stats were above 15 (7 is average and there are no negative numbers) in all five categories, and two were above 25, making him the best guy in all of Europe with both intrigues and money, and all of that without the "genius" trait (+5 to everything). But even so, conquering two kingdoms, saving a continent and creating an Empire (the Empire of Scandinavia) seems a bit more impressive still :x

Callid-san, I must ask what game that is, looks interesting....

That's Crusader Kings II (the title's a bit misleading, Crusades aren't all that common, and, IMO, not really interesting either), which is quite notable for combining (grand) strategy and role-playing with each other. It was nominated for the Joystick of the Year award, if I'm not mistaken, but didn't make it (not really surprising; it's a Paradox game, which generally are much more niche than, for example, Civilization or Total War).
I think the game is awesome, but then, I'm really a fan of Paradox' strategy games (which surely aren't for everyone, but CK2 is clearly the most newcomer-friendly).
Also, official website.

Argh, I want that game, but I will have to wait until Spot is fixed, as there's no way Maru-chan would be able to run it. ~_~*

Should you get it, I can give you an introduction^^
It has a tutorial, but that's apparently not that good :x
Also, a warning: the game has a relatively steep learning curve. Not nearly as bad as, let's say, Dwarf Fortress, but still more than Total War :x

Oh good. Part of my enjoyment of games like this comes from the fact that I tend to be better at them than Archi, who is generally quite good at all the games I suck at. (Like Mario or Assasin's Creed or Toho....)

English is weird.
British English uses some weak forms, but not all (also, does RP use any at all, or is it only BE?).
American English uses the weak form whenever possible, but if they start singing, they seem to sing very Britishly, and also create a clusterfuck of weak and strong forms, all over and next to each other.
I mean, seriously (weak, strong):
I think we can do it, but we need to work together...
What the hell?

A cookie to anyone who knows where the one line is from XD
Also, I should probably go to bed :x

In terms of accents, a lot of Brits put on vaguely American ones when singing pop songs :x, don't know if that would affect the 'forms' (by that do mean the emphasis put on words or something else?)

What? I can't make heads or tails of Callid-san's query. Weak and strong forms? Is that like verbs being active or passive? Except the snippet he chose as an example has nothing to do with active/passive voice, and the words he's highlighted don't have substitutes.
The only interpretation that I can work through making any sense with it is 'emphasis' or 'accent' on the syllables he highlighted. I'm still not sure how to parse the question, though.... *continues confusing herself as she tries to figure it out*

I can so relate Callid!
This is why I'm never ever writing a poem in English, especially not in a Iambic pentameter!

Mia: it's about where to accentuate a word in a sentence (If I'm not saying BS  )

Some languages don't do up and down with the words, like French for example, which is mostly flat, unless we want to emphasize something, and at the end of questions

[miakakiri]

I thought he might mean accentuating syllables in sentences (emphasis goes on syllables, not words) but I couldn't make sense of what he was asking....
