Fort Aleswell

RockyJoeHawkins · July 2015

Since I've been playing I've noticed something to me that seems as though a lot of people can't read or just don't know what to call this place, I've heard Aleswell called az well , a Lee's well, alizwell, and all is well...

I mean really? To me it doesn't feel so difficult ult to figure out. Midevil, renaissance style realm, Aleswell, Ale is an alchoholic beverage, the S makes it plural and a well is synonymous for a keg, so Aleswell, BeerKeg, Aleswell. And back in that era people loved there mead, wines, and ALES.

Maybe I'm the one who's wrong, maybe I should conform to calling it Azwell because clearly the S comes before the L, oh wait...... Here's your sign.

Food for thought, how about each keep gets a door greeter "Hello, welcome to Fort Ash."

While your at it, include yourself as needing a sign....you spelled "midevil" wrong, it should have been "medieval. A- for effort though.

At least I can pronounce it correctly, medieval that is. Come on give me an A +

RockyJoeHawkins · July 2015

Honestly though, I would love to know the proper way to pronounce aleswell. If I'm wrong that is. I might have to accept it as az well, which erks me.

What I call Fort Aleswell completely depends on if my faction owns it or not. If we do, then it's "All's Well" if not then it's "Awwws Well"

RockyJoeHawkins · July 2015

I'm laughing at the awwws well, but I just can't register the all's well. I have heard it called that too though, a lot. Generally though I'll here the same person or people say it two ways depending on what someone else said prior.

Acrolas · July 2015

In Oblivion it was pronounced as Ales-Well, like, well, a round of ales.

Edit: start at 2:25 if you want to hear an NPC actually say it.

Only works if while defending someone asks "where are they setting up siege?" "1 o'clock at Alllllllllllls Welllllllll"

Osteos · July 2015

Its definitely Ales well. Or Ales for short.

I can never say it correctly.

Our massive guild just take turns butchering it, lol.

jkemmery · July 2015

In the guilds I play with, we normally just call it "Ales". Just be sure when you say "Rayles" you emphasize the "R" sound and all is well.

Master_Fluff · July 2015

I've heard some call it Allessroe. Like Allessia, but with the fish at the end. That's even weirder.

I like this thread.

UrQuan · July 2015

But is it Ales-Well, or is it Ale-Swell? Because I think ale is swell, but I'd also like to have an ales well that I could dip a bucket into when I want some of that swell ale.
