    I can only name 2, myself.

    "Ware and were, friend."

    "Long live Spidasa."

    Does anybody know some of the others?

    Isn't there an Order of Rangers that has a rather significant greeting of sorts? It's just out of reach...

    Here is a list of salutations common to the Flanaess, as printed in the Greyhawk boxed set.

    Saludos,

    Hey, now that we are getting some of these phrases out in the open, maybe our next poll can survey what our favorite is.

    Some of them are pretty good. They are also listed in The Player's Guide to Greyhawk.

    A couple more missing from that link (off the top of my head, I'm sure the verbage is slightly different):

    - "Until all the Suloise have left the table." - References the stubbornness of Suel and their supposed inability to agree on anything.

    - "Certain as a Shielder's Oath." - References the Knight of the Holy Shielding and their sense of honor.

    ...I also thought their was one that referenced the Byzantine politics of the Great Kingdom, but don't recall how it went.
