[Lets choose] the ENworld un-word of 2008

[Jack7]

WOW, not WOW, pro-WOW, anti-WOW, pow-WOW, or any derivative thereof.

As in "WOW, I'm sick of hearing about that crap."

Ah heck, Rechan beat me to it...
I'm still over-WOWed.

 

[Desdichado]

RAW has always bugged me. It's not being used incorrectly, it's just annoying. Sandbox is another one that's not used very descriptively and describes anything that's not a railroad.

 

[Mallus]

Core.

All the games I've played in divided rules/support materials into two categories; the stuff we used in that particular campaign and the stuff we didn't. Anything beyond that is un-entertaining sophistry.

 

[Jack7]

You know what I'd really like to see? It's a little off-subject in a way, but I'd like to see combination terms that can be used humorously to make exaggerated and silly points.

Stuff like, RAW-Core-WOW - otherwise known as RCWOW, or Never tell me the odds, that kinda thing is totally full of fail - a.k.a. SOLOFAIL, or Balanced Videogamey Simulationist Nerd Rage, the ever popular BVSNR.


Yeah, I like combination terms. That would be a load of fun, don'tcha think?
Then again, maybe not.

 

[roguerouge]

I have to ask. What is nerd rage?

I hate you.

 

[Obryn]

In my mind, versimilitude is hands-down the most over-used word, even if someone thinks I have an agenda for thinking so.

-O

Balanced Videogamey Simulationist Nerd Rage, the ever popular BVSNR.

You know, that might make a pretty good comic or TV series. We just need to find some way to work in humanoid animals.

 

[Mallus]

You know, that might make a pretty good comic or TV series.

It's a harem anime.

Nah, with verisimilitude, it only really, really, looks like you have an agenda.
