:Ah, if that's what you are saying then it should definitely be "imply" as the whole point of the easter egg is that implication. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 04:27, 26 August 2007 (UTC) | :Ah, if that's what you are saying then it should definitely be "imply" as the whole point of the easter egg is that implication. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 04:27, 26 August 2007 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::That's the problem with implications-- kind of hard to know they are there. But it is true that the egg seems pointless without there being one. Thanks for the clarification. {{User:Zoom/sig}} 04:32, 26 August 2007 (UTC) |

KoT Food Page
I think this page is a good idea, but it could use a better title. Maybe the King Of Town's Foodstuffs or something. Also, it definately needs a lot of editing and more content. --The Lurker 23:16, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
- I'm thinking about "The King of Town's Food". And what do you mean by more editing and content? I think it looks fine. →FireBird
- The King Of Town's Food sounds good. And it is maturing into a decent article now, but I made that first comment shorty after the article was created. The format wasn't great and there was very little content. --The Lurker 02:49, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah change it to "The King of Town's Food". That will make it somewhat less mystifying. -- Tony Stony 22:52, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
Does anyone have a bigger version of the Pork Snagglins images, so that it fits in with the rest of the images? --The Lurker 00:08, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
- It's because it's a .gif. Someone needs to replace it with a .png picture. (Those will resize for any occasion) -- Joshua 03:10, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
Imply vs. Infer
My change to fishsticks was reverted because it "didn't change the meaning". But I know the difference between implication (something done by the speaker) and inference (something done by the listener).
What I am getting at, is that we don't really know that the Prince of Town gained weight specifically from the lifetime supply of fishsticks (as opposed to, say, anything else), or that TBC implied this was definitely the case. However, we seem to have inferred it.
So, how was the meaning not changed? ¡ɯooz + 04:24, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
