Ok, here is the answer to the question you all wonder about.
Question: Why can people just not get the spelling right of the races in EV:O?
Answer: BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL SO DAMN COMPLEX....
Oh, makes of EV, why must you make the names so hard to spell? Well... I have a solution. From now on, the Adzgari (or, commonly called the Azgaridi) will now be known as the "Aggies"... the Igadzra (also called Igzraza) shall be the Iggies. Our friendly neighbors, the Emalgha (also called the Ephglmgha) shall be the Eggies, the Voinians (Vioninians) will be the.... ummm.... Vonans? Veggies? whatever.... and the friend Zidagar (also: Zigdraga) will be the Ziggies.
See how easy life become when you end every word in "ies"????
Enjoy. Flame away.

One way to remember the strands: They all have the same letters as Gadzair.
Cool, eh?

Hey... not bad
Aggies Eggies Iggies Ziggies Veggies
I like it... -- Renagades? (Ranedegs):
Reggies (or maybe Regis...) -- Miranu? (Murinae):
Mirgies (pronounced M-ER-GEES) -- Humans? (um, not that we don't realy misspell them that much, but...)
Hummies (Like HumVee ;)) -- Strandless? (this'll be fun...)
Straggies (pronounced STRA-GEES) -- Council? Should we even DO them? Hmm...
Gaggies (since they're in the Gadzair system)
or Caggies. Whichever you prefer. -- Okay, independent systems. What about them?
Indians! (or Indies. But I like the other one) --
And yet another...
The Zachit!! (hmm...)
ZACHIES!!! (pronounced ZACH-EES) --
What about the Militia guys? (this just keeps on getting better and better...)
Miggies!! (or maybe midgets) --
Okay, so ALL the names possible:
Aggies Eggies Iggies Ziggies Veggies Reggies (or Regis) Mirggies Straggies Gaggies (or Caggies) Zachies Miggies (or Midgets) Indies (or Inians) Hummies
Now how about THAT?
The "aggies" should be the azdi's. The "ziggies" should be known as the ziddies.
I don't think the names are that complicated but I do think they should have nicknames. Look how well I can spell them!

Voinian. Miranu. Hinwar. Zidagar. Igadzra. Azdgari. Emalgha. This is a recursive paragraph. Please reread this paragraph.

You can't even begin to imagine how many unique spellings of every race I've seen over my time here. For some reason, people have the most trouble with "Emalgha." I've seen it as: Emalpha Emagla Emalphans Emaglha Emahgla
That's not even mentioning the creative interpretations of "Anna Balashova..."
/bomb
Andrew... your wit... it's just too much to handle. Now run along.
Meanwhile... yes, I just noticed, I did misspell "Azdgari"... heh. Don't I feel smart. heh
On behalf of the Emalgha race, I shall inform you on how to learn our name, just look at this:

WTF is "Estatic"?
BTW, for the missing 'A' you could use "acerebral."
