CapitanClassic Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Spoiler trident circled Spoiler 10 plus whatever is on the back of the fathom box. I don’t think the mermaid tail counts, even though it looks like the other tridents. anyone have a hq scam of the fathom box.

jhd Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Am I the only person who cares that "octopuses" is not the correct plural form? Octopi was actually a word in my grade one reading book (each chapter of which covered a different animal). Back on topic, is there any information that the prize was ever awarded, e.g. a notice in the Imagic "Numb Thumb" newsletter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on topic, is there any information that the prize was ever awarded, e.g. a notice in the Imagic "Numb Thumb" newsletter? Not true. I'm pulling from the Oxford English Dictionary here: Quote The standard plural in English of octopus is octopuses. However, the word octopus comes from Greek and the Greek plural form octopodes is still occasionally used. The plural form octopi, formed according to rules for some Latin plurals, is incorrect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Sadly, I have apparently been spelling that word incorrectly for more than forty years. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
