Put all the foundry stuff in one place, Forums in another, Clans, maps, etc.
Give everything its own section so we can easily find what we want.

Dat's re-cash is slightly flawed. The term is mid-turn....

I would describe that a little differently. Maybe something like, "To come up short on an attempted kill, leaving the player easily eliminated by the next player to go."

But its not always an attempt to kill the player. You can attack a single country which exposes the player to someone else, and therefore hangs them. Your quote is one example but I think it should be a broader definition.

Yeah, I've been wondering about the term Farming. So far I believe it means, to pick on the newbies in order to gain easy points.
A Glossary would be very helpful. Someone's going to tell me there is one and reveal my secret, that I'm a complete arse.

The Neon Peon wrote:I think that if something like this should happen, a mod should be the OP and we should actually discuss each term rather than taking the first definition available.

Here are some examples of deficiencies:

Block - To block another player from killing a weaker player Rarely good to use the word in the definition. If they can figure out that definition, they should have been able to figure out the word in the same way: through context.

Recash - Cashing cards at the point of taking them; in a turn (also known as: mid-turn cash) If someone is new and using this (I think this is the target audience), then how are they supposed to know that you can only recash if you have 5 or more cards when you eliminate someone (thusby taking their cards). You need to explain things for the background rather than making a dictionary of English to CC slang.

So far, good list, though we need to actually think about how this is helpful rather than taking the first definition and word that comes up. I hear BPB about once a week here... not that important to a new recruit.

....just 3 days ago, I wasn’t expecting such a responce.

All we need now, is for someone to collate all the above and Sticky it.

See I’ve even learned what a Sticky is now.

Thanks to all (particularly ManBungalow)

Thank you Namor

I'm glad to see this is going down well

By the way - I didn't make this to make you look like a complete arse

Couldn't we just rename it "Top 100 CC terms and acronyms", and leave it in GD?
