That's the canonical pronunciation.

I started pronouncing it that way because when I did a Google image search for ‘sloonei’ it brought up a picture of George Clooney, thus beginning my man-crush on Sloonei.

But whyyyy

"ei" almost never makes that sound in like any language, it should be like "eyy"

No doubt. Not even just for CC-123, even though I think that's G-man's only game from this year. But the G's games are always tremendous.

Blue vs Red ran in January of last year. It was a fairly adequate affair.

Because I was 12 when I made the name up.

Two vowels together = first one's long, second one's silent.

Even though I replaced in pretty late, it was an epic endgame to be a part of, especially due to the enormous effort put forth by so many townies before me. Truly an incredible game.

aw thanks MP

it warmed my heart so much to see phenon get the best job award, being my first setup hosted here and my second setup ever. not to mention it was 2 years in the making and overall im just super glad how it turned out and that all the effort paid off
