Man, That Sucks.

Severe limitations there.

You can take off an 'n', that should be suitable.

Really, though… that sucks. Makes me wonder how much of the old Battle.net infrastructure is still hanging around.

I did, but it looks so wrong

nothing really special about Schedonnardus, other than it is a cool to say latin word. Schedonnardus paniculatus is the sole species in that genus. I did plant identification contests in FFA and college. without the seedhead, this plant is commonly confused with Chorlis verticillata, as the leaves and growth stature are very similar. but Schedonnardus has a long ligule ("little tongue") at the base of the leaf.

Just seeing it misspelled irks me, b/c on contests, you got docked for spelling.

Huh. I did kinda wonder what that name meant. Mystery solved.

I did FFA contests in high school, too. Mostly dairy foods. People who know me now would probably find that surprising.

I would have gone with Paniculatus then...

I blame AOL for my 8 digit name

Back in the day when I setup my username on AOL, you could only have a maximum of 8 characters. Times sure do change.
