First Linguifex Relay

The first Linguifex relay is under planning stage. The source text will be provided by user Chrysophylax and will be written in his latest conlang Valian. Currently we have a total of six slots. The procedure is simple, you will receive a conlang text from the previous torch with an interlinear/gloss and then you will translate it into your conlang and add information so that the next torch can decipher it and translate their version! You will have 48 hours from the time of having received the text to prepare a translation of it into your conlang, gloss it and then send it to the next person in the chain. If you fail to pass on the torch, then the torch will "jump" over your slot.

The date will be set after the slots have been filled. Everyone is welcome to partake, but for reasons of convenience, an account on Linguifex is required (as the posting of the material will be on talk pages and such). Every person is restricted to one entry, but the choice of conlang is up to them. In the case that two people chose the same language, a first-come first-served basis will be adopted (unless, say the language creator chooses to join in).

• slot 1 - Chrysophylax - relay starter, source text will be in Valian
• slot 2 - Fauxlosophe - relay second, generally awesome human person, will translate into Cwengâr
• slot 3 - Zev - relay third, will translate into an undisclosed language (I promise that whatever it is, I will document it on Linguifex)
• slot 4 - Ashucky - relay fourth, undecided as of yet but will probably translate to Harākti
• slot 5 - Waahlis - relay five, obviously. Translating into Kiwi
• slot 6 - Ílchőfti Lēmáthīd - relay sixth, who just woke up only knowing that he is a feeble scribe of "Curiosity", will translate into Themsaran
• slot 7

How-to

Once you've received the conlang text with glosses and all and you've managed to translate it into your conlang and you have glossed it (try to include an interlinear gloss), then you may come to this list, see who's next after you and go onto their talk page. Create a new topic called "First Linguifex Relay"; use the template {{subst:tagtorch|First Linguifex Relay|YourUserName}} and add a link to the text you've glossed/written. If all has gone correctly, it should look something like this.

	This user is currently the torch bearer for First Linguifex Relay and was handed it on 16:46, 1 September 2013 (CEST) by test-edit. The torch will automagically pass on to the next relay member in 48 hours.

Remember to update this page with a link to your translation after the relay is finished. The relay will be deemed finished when the starter has re-translated back the last node.
