I pronounce it Ohm-nee-mah-gah, but that's just because I normally speak German. Apparently that's even the correct way O.O

I thought this was real
I was expecting this with Juju, didn't happen. With you I thought I was safe, turns out I was wrong :P Never knew omnimaga takes that long to say.

Any pronunciation that isn't the same as my own infuriates me :P
That's why I hate cemetech's name :P

Speaking of pronunciation: How do you pronounce pronunciation? I've heard it two ways.

So I was looking for an official ruling by DJ_O or Juju in this thread but didn't really find one (the synthesized voice Juju posted doesn't really make it clear). What is the official pronunciation? It seems like the first syllable could be either "om" as in om nom or "ohm" like electrical resistance, and the third syllable could be either "ma" like someone might call their mom or "may."

EDIT: I guess I assumed the g belonged to the fourth syllable, that might be wrong as well.

To me jujus pronunciation is very clear >.>
Well, I guess in different languages you also pronounce it different as I do it differently when seeking english or german.

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
