Ok, perhaps a silly question, but I've been wondering, is there a "correct" pronunciation for Nexuiz? While I've been the way "nexus" would be pronounced in Latin, more like "Nexoose" (the last sylable rhymes with loose), it looks more like "nex-yu-iz" or "nex-wiz".
Anything official on the intended pronunciation?

Listen to the Sound sayind "Welcome to Nexuiz!" when the game is loaded, and then you'll get the correct pronounciation 
"One should strive to achieve; not sit in bitter regret."
WE ARE NEXUIZ.

I'd never heard this before - music volume was high enough to totally drown it out.
Of course, now that I know how it's pronounced, I'll probably be forever wondering why on earth it's spelled the way it is.

The story goes that there was an old friend of a developer for the game who went by Nexiuz, but when he signed up somewhere, he typoed his name? So they went with Nexuiz (his typo) but I guess left the pronunciation the other way.
