    Hi,
    it's Münster !

    You know with an Umlaut!

    btw. we will have everything we need right on time. We will be late, but not to late or like we use to say we will be "pünktlich" again that umlaut.... it means right on time!

      Darekill,

      The problem with the umlauts is mostly that many of us don't know the proper ASCI commands for inserting them (since we don't exactly have umlaut keys on our keyboards here in the United States ).

          You can use the HTML replacements for writing umlauts and other "weird" characters on a website. That's even better than using a key. The key will insert a single-byte character in the range 80..FF (hex), which will be rendered as umlaut or ligature only if the appropriate NLS (Latin-1 or ISO-8859-1) is set. If the browser uses another set, for instance Cyrillic or similar, these characters will be interpreted another way.

          Better to use the HTML descriptions for the characters. They will always be rendered as the characters they stand for, or if the browser isn't able to render them properly, it will replace them with other characters, like ä with ae or simple a, or &szlig with sz or ss.

          For the German special characters:

          Ä = Ä, Ö = Ö, Ü = Ü, ä = ä, ö = ö, ü = ü, ß = &szlig.

                  Can you bring some umlauts with you? They’re in short supply here

                        I'd have to say though my favorite-sounding words in German would have to be umgebung, gezeichnet and my all time favorite...

                              No german rappers don't scream 'east side yo'. East Germany is not very popular in West Germany.

                              I got one question.
                              Where can I find the settings of your teams ? I need to know wich colors were chosen for the teams. Because now we want to vote our color.
