* TKM = (T)erds (K)dsi (M)aster
...I'm a terd? See, we told ya TKAs weren't all that. We stink, hahahaha




The Finnish words for hand of steel (or, steel hand) are:


teräs käsi, Anglisized teras kasi.


nothing to do with terds...whatever that means

NOTHING about swg is uber. Don't use inappropriate terminology. POS would be more accurate!

I never knew that one either. I left out a few like AFAIK and FWIW, but maybe I'll ask Tiggs to get those added.


The thing with über and Teräs Käsi Artist both happened because I use the ANSI (or ASCII) code characters for those andwhatever they used to translate itto the webpagestripped the ä characters and replaced them with d's. And the ü somehow became // and then when I asked for it to be corrected it became U//ber which ended up looking like a link. Funny stuff.






Ah. I shoulda figured that out. Too used to Teras Kasi and Uber without the correct .. symbols I had almost forgotten about them. Perhaps Tiggs can either update the character sets or replace them with correct (technically or litterally) versions.

Actually it means "Blade hand", so tell your mother she is wrong.
