It would transpire that since Herr Kovac hasn't named his preferred choice for judge, and Herr Montague has (I believe he mentioned Guido Zambelis), and given that both sides have posted their OrBats, it seems that we can now finally start this conflict in earnest.

Not so quickly. The entire Ocian orbat needs to be published along with our National Defence estimate much like Ardy did with yours.

Herr Kovac needs to approve of the judge too, which I believe he will do.

Have some patience, Maximos.

P.S Its not Herr Montague.

Ah, my apologies. Have you an estimate as to when that'll be published?
It's not a question of being desperate, it's just that this is dragging on a bit, undeniably.
P.S Its not Herr Montague.
Just using Yiddish formalities. It's actually being polite, not insulting if that's what you thought...

Gospa Maximos,

We have approved Guido as judge, my deepest apologies for the delay.

A mekhaye! Guido vird a guter rikhter zayn.
(i.e Excellent! Guido will make a fine judge!)

I tried a bit of Slovenian when I went there- I must say, for a speaker of Germanic languages (and the tiniest smattering of Celtic, Baltic, and Turkic- yes, I teach myself odd languages in my spare time often!), the vowel clusters are very daunting.
Suppose I'd better get used to them seeing as I'm gonna do Russian at Uni lol

Many laughs were had by me and a friend trying to pronounce the vowelless word 'trg', as in Novi Trg, in the nice town of Novo Mesto where I stayed.
