terms

[ilikepie444]

my brother is on cc and he taught me how to play and use clickable maps and stuff but hes not home right now and people are using terms i dont know. is there anyplace where someone has made a list of terms like rt or gl?

[captainwalrus]

rt means real time, so like you stay at your computer and play as if you were actually hanging out in someone's basement playiing risk. gl means good luck.
I don't think there is a lost though.

ok thanks.

I don't know of a list, perhaps we should start one.

gg = good game
dugs = doubles game
trips = triples game
rt = real time
gl = good luck
gla = good luck all
imo = in my opinion
stack = large number of armies on one territory
territ = territory
Fort = fortify
Fort line = chain of territs held by the same player, allowing them to fort along that line to themselves or partners
Bob = Ajax bob an addon for firefox that gives you additional information about the map, (e.g. things that you could count on your own if you took the time, nothing that everyone else couldn't figure out if they took the time)
Clickies = clickable maps, an addon for firefox that allows you to click on the map to drop armies, attack and fort
auto = auto attack
dice = devil


Some ones that I use a lot

std = standard
esc = escalating
seq = sequential
drop = deploy (e.g. drop on my 5 stack)
drop also = initial setup (e.g. I got a bad drop)
fake time = casual speed or opposite of real time

Hope some of these are helpful, can anyone add a few more?

There's this old list. Probably needs an updating and sprucing up!
