There's reall so many acronyms floating around that you really should just burn a feat for Skill FocusAcronym Recognition); max out the skill if you can

Some common ones are:

RAW: Rules As Written
YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary(which does for those of us who don't use miles)
IMO/IMC: In My Opinion/Campaign
AFAIAC: As Far As I Am Concerned
AFAIK: As Far As I Know
IMHO: In My Humble Opinion (also IMNSHO: In My Not-So-Humble Opinion)
SO: Significant Other
IYKWIMAITYD: If You Know What I Mean And I Think You Do
WYSIWIG: What You See I What You Get

There is most definitely more, but this is off the top of my head.

It'd be nice if there were a stickied lexicon for these somewhere. Is there and I just missed it? I tend to get lost on some of the product acronyms.

not that i know of. I wonder if they would let me do that. I would type it for them if people would chip in. I wouldn't be any good at puting it one the site tho. I would have to have a mod. put it there for me.


As for the threads origional porpuse, I like the idea of making my BBEG(I LOVE using it and knowing what it means) someone they would least expect. I friendly neighbor, and then you wouldn't have to worry about a good name. Just fancy and easy to remember.
