Hey guys!  I meant to post there, I just haven't done it yet (mom popped over and I got distracted).

As for a flag, I realized belatedly that Nahuatl doesn't have a proper flag. . .I'm used to unilang's flag system, where a hover over the flag tells you the language - they use Mexico's flag for it, I believe?

The Fenno-Swede flag would be awesome!

My name is actually part Finnish! Tasku = pocket.  My ex's mother used to call me her son's "pocket" girlfriend.  XD  So I combined it with my usual handle "Hecate", for when that's taken.  Works like a charm!  I'm also not fluent or anything in Nahuatl, I just find it so fascinating, so I thought I'd mention it.  :3

Also, Argentina's flag doesn't seem to show up when I tried...

Oh good!  I hate to be a bother!

Mildly off-topic, but what are those "Chapter Break Survivor" icons about?  Also, oooh, Icelandic! I've always wanted to poke at it properly!

The chapter break survivor ribbons are made by starfallz. If you are there for a chapter break you get a ribbon at the end. If you are a new reader you won't have any, but if you've been reading in the past you get one for every chapter you've been here for.

Also come learn Icelandic! I started a thread for that and I am here to help with questions you have about it :)

I might!  Also, how do notifications work?  I have this thread set to notify, but...I haven't seen any?

But derpy me just found the "new replies" button. This is what I get for living on the Lacky forum and pretty much inhabiting the "your posts" and "active topics" board.  xD

As for Icelandic, maybe!  I'm notoriously flaky when it comes to setting goals like that.  >.<;;;

If you hit the "Notify" button (from the selection either above or below this thread), you'll get e-mail notifications every time someone posts to this thread.  Like now, for example.   :D

I turned off notifications because I was getting too much email, but then I spend way too much time here anyhow...  :P
