Re: In search of a conworld

That's the one, illion. I couldn't remember the name for the life of me. It seems like the site is a lot more developed than it was when I last saw it. Anyone who wants a biologically realistic conworld should check out this one. Thanks for your help.

In search of a conworld

I haven't posted for a while, but I wanted to find a conworld that I once saw. I'm not sure if I saw it on here or somewhere else, but it was a very cool, detailed conbiology project. I think the planet was supposed to be tilted so its axis always pointed towards the sun. I know that the information...

Re: Ruhdrelian

Like Torco said, definitely read the Language Construction Kit as soon as possible. Even if it doesn't make much sense...

Re: The Ðolorar Language

I am using something a bit similar I call a gate system to help me create words, however I like the way this works. :-D How did this evolve? For example did you start with say a few dozen words and draw those grids off of them or (?) ? Also what is your word patterns like? Are they cvc, cvccvc etc....
