Schills' "Vermilion Entente" thread as well as some of the comments in it inspired me to make this so people can clarify a few things about their own alliance's acronyms. For example, I have not heard of a single person in Viridia referring to VE as "veee" and I myself say it as "ve-ee"

So, let's hear it, what alliance are you in and how do you pronounce its acronym.

Vox Populi

I usually just say Vox, so I don't know how it's actually suppose to be pronounced, however if I say the whole thing, I usually say it either Vox Pop-u-li or Vox Pop-u-lee. I don't have just one way of saying it :P
