[In Italiano: https://plus.google.com/u/0/100990726871994245256/posts/1aZaSyHgXSJ ]

The Blind Test Package is ready, after almost a year of internal test (you may already looked at the “thank you video”)!

If you want to be part of the Blind Test phase, just send me an e-mail here and ask:

korinduval[at]gmail[dot]com

I’ll send you a link to the working Google Doc and a .ZIP file with all the handouts.

Blind Testers will have our gratitude and… whatever we will be able to think to properly thank them!

Need help for English translation of a core concept

We’re promoting Dilemma ( #dilemmarpg ) with a series of initiatives (more on that in the next weeks), and we have a GREAT tagline in Italian, thanks to Claudia Cangini (one of the great minds behind Italian publisher www.narrattiva.it ):

Dilemma: Lasciati Segnare

Now, we do not know how to best translate it in English.

Literally, it would be “let yourself be tagged”, or “get tagged” (to Tag is a game term, it’s one of the most defining moments of the game!).

I thought about translating it with “Let Me Tag You”, but I don’t know if it sounds appealing to a real native speaker… it sounds “ugly” to me. Is it me?

Italian verb “segnare” also mean “to leave a mark”, but the English verb sounds closer to “brand” rather than “leave a lasting impression on someone’s soul” (again: is it me?).

Another option could be to leave it in Italian to make people curious about its meaning… problem is, its correct pronunciation is very difficult for native English speakers, it includes not one but two different sounds that do not exist in English!

It’s not like “dolce vita”, that almost every English speaker can get right at the first or second try.

(BTW: Dilemma has ended the closed playtest phase, now we’re going into “blind playtest” phase… there will be a “recruitment” post soon for anyone interested. ^_- )

Alexandra Zanasi, who’s perfectly bilingual in English and Italian, maybe can help me.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help! ^_^
