It's a real person. It's Marcus Atilius Regulus, son of Marcus, grandson of Marcus. In 217, he was the consul suffectus and in 227 he was an actual consul. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Atilius_Regulus_(consul_227_BC)I was being super formal.praenomen: Marcusnomen: Atilius (he belongs to gens Atilia, the Atilii in plural)patronymicus: Marci f.

Yeah, all I kept finding was the guy who got captured by Carthage in the first Punic War. Rolled down a barrel filled with spikes, some of the accounts say, which for some reason I found humorous. I'm guessing that's either the father, or the grand father of the guy you're referring to? 

Having quickly wiki'd it, I see it's the son. Bit of a grisly yet honourable end at Cannae. 

Well, it all checks out. I've got no problem with you show casing your passion in Roman history, but please keep in mind some of us (including myself) are only at a casual level. Though truth be told I've learned SO much since this RP started. So yeah, baby words might be a wiser way to go sometimes, if it's dealing with something we all need to understand.

I hope that doesn't sound like a telling off, because it's not.

Anyway, how do you guys want to conclude the meeting? Should I auto-end it tomorrow? Or do you want to let me know when it's over? I'm not bothered either way.
