So, how do you pronounce it?

Tech-i-ous, like Tech-no-lo-gy
or
Tetch-i-ous, like whatever word uses that syllable

And what is the official word on this?

The first one, or how Met did it for simplicity.

I tend to draw out the i (e sound) a bit and have a slight hiss to the s.

Well.
In standard English, this word "Techious" would actually be pronounced

"(Tea/Tay)-Shus"

The iou works in the same way a "magic E" would, on the first E. the "ous" softens the "Ch" from "CHurch" to "CHernobyl".
This means the e would have a simillar sound to the greek "ae", giving a mix between the two.

But of course, I'm willing to accept that the way you want to pronounce it "Tekious".

I can assure you, most English would pronounce it Tech-i-ous, lol. It's just the way it looks, you see the "tech" and instantly think of, well, tech. ^^

Who wants to go around asking people?

Post subject:  Re: How to pronounce "Techious"

Well I actually pronounce it:
Tea-She-Us

Think I will carry on pronouncing it that way as well. As I like to pronounce things how I think I should.

Heh, odd. I would have thought people would notice the Tech primarily. Ah well, not like it actually matters, tis interesting though ^^
