Re: How Do You Pronounce Chief Delphi?
The Greeks would have pronounced it del-fee (you know, the city with the Oracle). But since we're not Greek, we pronounce it del-fi (long i).

Actually, before I heard it from one of the Team 47 mentors long ago, I always though it was Chief Del-fee (apparently, he used the same version before joining the team; sadly, I don't remember the mentor's name). Ever since, I've used the long i version myself. Yay for Anglosizing?
