This thread highlighted the variance in "dry" (US) versus "steam" (Aus, UK) fencing. I'm interested to hear how other parts of the world refer to non-electrical fencing, in any language.

I'll add to this collected list following suggestions. Italics denotes a single data point.

• Danish: manuelt (manual) / damp (steam)

• Egyptian Arabic: offline

• English (AU, UK): steam

• English (NZ): visual / dry

• English (US): dry

• Finnish: kylmillä aseilla miekkailu (fencing with cold weapons)

• French: en pointe sèche (with dry tip) / tirer en blanc (to fence in white)

• German: mechanisches Fechten (mechanical fencing) / Trockenfechten (dry fencing)

• Spanish: tirar mudo (to fence mute) / tirar blanco (to fence white)

• Swedish: manuell (manual)

Additional information, like stats or a brief statement, if you're a PoSI, etc. would be welcome, if you like. Timezone + hours played could be helpful for those looking for someone active during the same time they are.

Question of the month: Estival is happening, a time when we get to purchase all manner of curious objects. What items would you like to see that you think are missing from the game?

On a company SharePoint page, there is a Hero using tiles. Each of the tiles has a link and header text.

However the header text isn't itself an anchor. So to follow the link, you have to put your mouse around the edge of the tile (outside of the text area); in the middle of the tile (where the text is) there is no link.

I'm not seeing a way to make the text clickable other than through the Call to Action text - which is unsuitable as it's much smaller, and is not an option on the smaller tiles.

Is this an insurmountable flaw in this type of object? Hopefully I'm just missing some basic workaround. :-)

I've still got over 120 of the darling fluff-bundles to find new homes for. Let me spread the joy by dropping a comment with your in-game name, and I shall furnish you with your very own Glasswork-knowledgeable feline.
