Ooh, that's a neat thread. I'd join, but I'm keeping strictly off either campaign...

That's fair enough

*shrug* Personally I think if the names are to be renamed,it should be a reasonable name system, like we've got in Hebrew: Firstday, Secondday, Thirdday... Makes sense doesn't it?

Sorry, guess I'm a bit tired - if the DAYS are to be renamed, of course.

Not that I'm going to start a campaign though... I just enjoy being an antagonist to everyone else.

Very logical system...so long as *everyone* agrees on which is the first day!

Well, seeing as in Arabic Sunday is Firstday and Saturday is Sabbath, even though they have their Sabbath day on Friday (you lot with me so far?), I think it's very clear that the way we do it is the right one.

Does anybody recall the old "Munsday, Chewsday, Thursday, Wensday", as in "Onesday, Twosday, Thirdsday..." ?

No...

Then again, this must be a cultural thing.

I suspect I saw it on TV - I have no idea where it came from...

Maybe you just made it all up in your head?
