Isn't saying 4 is death an incorrect interpretation of the Japanese language? They are written with different characters - not the same thing.

The Japanese don't like the number 4 and 9 because of their pronunciation. Four is pronounced "shi" which is the same pronunciation as death


{E} We had to word it differently in google to get this type of answer...

But they will avoid using "shi" when four comes up, because of the dual meaning. You'll see "yon" instead.
That's to say . . . you understand . . . the dusk . . . the strain . . . waiting

only thing I didn't have... I said I for " I am " lol
Doesn't that link just further my point? I know they sound alike, but they aren't the same character, and that's not really how the language works. That's why when people introduce themselves in animes they will tell you the characters used to write their names.
The only one I had no clue about and relied on replies was "G" for the campfire song...so thanks to those that shared that info. =)

I was getting worried about the number of attempts. I was to 5 or so from making minor modifications (had W for Wood instead of T at first...in hindsight, T is much better).

All in all, a fun diversion from my programming work. Which, unfortunately, I now need to get back to before I can play.

Wish I came out of this with a key, but oh well, it was a pleasant idea compared to "most" giveaways. =p Thanks for the chance to get one.
