I was interested by the Olympus language when I saw it in TFA, but I'm a little sad that the authors website doesn't have even a basic spec. I still cant tell if the epithets are syntactic, or you just need some amount of them, like PLEASE in intercal EDIT: According to https://esolangs.org/wiki/Olympus https://esolangs.org/wiki/Olympus, you need more epithets if the line of code is more demanding (?), and you need to use varying ones, but other than that they aren't syntactic
