Di kandang kambing mengembik, di kandang kuda meringkik.
(In a goat pen, bleat; in a horse stable, neigh.)

It's our way of saying "When in Rome, act like Romans".

EDIT: Any of those three fine fine games will do, but I do have a preference for Alpha Centauri. But if somebody else wants Alpha Centauri, I'm willing to take any of the other two. Also, I'm from Indonesia.

Wise man say, Forgiveness is Divine, but never pay full price for late pizza. (A free cookie to anyone who knows where that's from. As far as I know it's from the U.S. only)

I'll go with Master of magic, please and thank you.

Danish:
"Højt at flyve, dybt at falde."

English translation:
"The higher you fly, the farther you fall."

Fun trivia: The proverb is uttered untranslated by Dan Ackroyd's character in the movie Doctor Detroit.

In for: Alpha Centauri.

Don't really care for the games, own two of them anyway, but just for fun:

"Neštěstí ve hře, štěstí v lásce."
"Unlucky in game, lucky in love."

"putt fjeset i smøret"
translates to
"put your face in the butter" (and other grammatical variations)

and the meaning is something like make up your mind, come to a decision.

Not really interested in any of the games, though. Thanks, still.

I'm in for Alpha Centauri.

From Argentina:

"Tirate qué? Tirate un paso"

- Los Wachiturros (look it up in Google :D)

Thank you so much!

Thanks.
Here in Peru, and I suppose in other countries:
Casado, casa quiere
He who marries, wants a home.

This one is serious but it does seem fitting for GOG and this thread:

Love one another. - Jesus

So, I might be disqualified where that is not limited to America by any means but that's okay. I'm sticking with this one as my favorite. Just in case, Master of Magic would be nice.

While I am at it, here are some good ones my dad always used to say:

He who hesitates is lost.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
All things in moderation.

Thanks and +1 for the giveaway. I'd like to enter for Alpha Centauri.

As for words of wisdom,

"An investment in knowledge pays the best interest"

Not in... but a word of wisdom:

Dois bicudos não se beijam.... (no translation)o/

Dit is die klein botteltjies wat die groot gif het
It's the little bottles that carry the greatest poison. (People often smaller stature has most of the drive)

HOMM3


ya, tried a few from Afrikaans to english and it looses it's meaning.

That's why professional translators always amaze me because they can do so much more than just translate words; instantly. I don't think they would have a problem where we have failed :\

In what format?

Kuat burung kerana sayap, kuat ketam kerana sepit

A bird is strong because of its wings, a crab is strong because of its claws

Meaning everyone has their own strengths.

I'm in for Alpha Centauri.
