[Lets choose] the ENworld un-word of 2008

[Leatherhead]

"Sandbox" might be another one.

Really now? I must have missed the discussions about them.


As for my vote:
Sacred Cow.

 

[TarionzCousin]

Razz.

 

[resistor]

Badwrongfun. Would also have worked for the second half of 2007.

 

[mmu1]

"This!"

The combination of "Ooh! Ooh! Me too!" with "I'm too lazy to write even one complete sentence!" is just annoying as hell.

 

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

Really now? I must have missed the discussions about them.

You must have missed the 10+ page threads with profilic posters like pemerton, Raven Crowking or me. ("Missed" as "Oh, you didn't see it" not in "Oh, you really should have been there!" )

 

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

"This!"

The combination of "Ooh! Ooh! Me too!" with "I'm too lazy to write even one complete sentence!" is just annoying as hell.

QFT

 

[Dragonhelm]

"Teh." Such as..."It is teh awesome." Whatever an awesome is.

I don't know if that's a gamer thing or not, but that's where I see it the most.

 

[Duskblade]

As for my vote:
Sacred Cow.

Mmmm....time to make sacred hamburgers.

 

[Derulbaskul]

"Literally"

This has to be the ultimate un-word both on these boards and anywhere else where English is used. A literally die every time I see it misused!

 

[Olaf the Stout]

I would vote for "Sense of Wonder" but I think that's just because I got sick of the threads about them. I don't think people were misusing the word, it was just overused.

I think my vote would go to "balanced". Some people seemed to think that everything had to be balanced in order for a game to be fun.
