CBB Reconstruction Relay 2024 (Signups continuing)

Post by thethief3 »

The idea behind this is.
-Two teams make a proto language in secret.
-They derive daughter languages from it also in secret.
-The daughter languages are revealed.
-The other team (and possibly others) attempts to reconstruct the proto language based on the information given in the daughters.
It’s basically a more in depth version of some of the games going on.

If this doesn’t get enough respondents I suggest merging it with the one on the ZBB (which currently has zero canidates other then me who have expressed interest so far). It's probably a good idea to do this as the last few relays have been kinda scanty on canidates.

Teams (So far)
Team A
Me (Foxcatdog/Thethief3)
Arayaz/Udj
Linguistcat
Conlang-creature
Acipencer


Team B
Vaptuantadoi
Visions1
Omzinesy
Khemehekis
Man in Space
Kelisot


A good date for the daughter langs to be revealed is July 1st but if others need more time i will take requests.

I'll participate. I expect to be a good offense player ─ not so much reconstruction.


Edit: huh, 900 posts

I can try my hand at it. Probably would help me get more comfortable with sound changes.

One foot in
The project sounds very time-consuming and hard to coordinate but it's interesting, too.
So, maybe

Ah, I see. I'd use "going to" in this context:

I'll make a discord: I am about to make a discord in the immediate future as a consequence of this circumstance
I'm going to make a discord: I plan to make a discord once some other circumstance occurs

Probably an idiolectial thing, but a neat variation.

Anyone got any conworlds in need of filling out? Or do we set this in the ZBB collaborative fantasy world. Or possibly a new world since that one seems moribund. Or possibly just set this on Akana although i am feeling the need to start from a fresh slate.

It could be somewhere in the Ruykkarra world, which may, or may not, be Rekeni or Šolat.

My computer won't really be able to host Discord. Will I still be able to take part?

Can it host google documents? If it can you could come up with something based on the google docs provided. Of course we could always get subfora for this like on the ZBB but that's not a guarantee.

I'd love to join! I might not be experienced enough for this though. I don't really know.

Someone on your team will just have to appoint themselves leader and create them.

I'll happily take up the helm. Unless someone else wants to.
Vaptuantadoi, Omzinesy - is this alright?
