[1] I had originally intended for the default statistics page to remain Viminian for a couple of weeks for the novelty effect, and then revert back to Verdurian... but then I thought it was kind of cool to have it in Viminian, so I kept it that way (since Verdurian can still be selected explicitly). In the future, it might become something even different... perhaps Wede:i (in the original script), or Dhekhnami :)
