This was originally a fork of Jackathan/MarcLaidlaw-Epistle3, but I think there have been made enough changes that this stands out as it's own repository. Thanks to @Jackathan! I'm trying to maintain the whole thing and merge the original pull requests and stuff here. If the blog post or the tweets get deleted somehow, you can still read all the content here or athttps://github.com/Jackathan/MarcLaidlaw-Epistle3 if this repo is too bloated for your taste.

So far this repository includes many of the original pull request, many additional translations, some minor improvements and the Epistolary Afterthoughts by Marc Laidlaw.

Here you can view the original version, as well as the corrected version which has all the obfuscated names switched back to the real names.

Here is a list of all the names that have been changed to their "original" equivalent:

"Playa" : "Player"

"Gertie Fremont" : "Gordon Freeman"

"Gertrude Fremont" : "Gordon Freeman"

"Hyperborea" : "Borealis"

"Mrs. X" : "G-Man"

"Disparate" : "Combine"

"Jerry Maas" : "Judith Mossman"

"Alex Vaunt" : "Alyx Vance"

"Ghastlyhaunts" : "Vortigaunts"

"Elly Vaunt" : "Eli Vance"

"Tocsin Island" : "Aperture Science"

"Wanda Bree" : "Wallace Breen"
