@yetAnotherUser @db0 I have to assume, despite the spelling, that it is pronounced Whacko...Not even as a diss, just would find it incredibly amusing. "And dot" is right there too! idk.

@overcast5348 @moormaan The correct pronounciation is "Guh-Doh" or "Go-Doh". Honestly, a lot of people pronounce it Go-dot, so it isn't a big deal. But it is based of the play "Waiting for Godot" where they usually pronounce it like I have mentioned.

@kryllic It is crazy how this non-issue is becoming somekind of controversy. It was posted on that hate-filled site. I am not taking the reaction seriously at all. Godot is awesome and nothing has changed that.
