It may see changes as this is our first pulic beta. If you're okay with that, and want to take your control to the next level and reduce wrist strain, dive in!

Some of the words need a buddy word, some of them might be fine on their own. We are looking for words that relate to gaining power, speed, accuracy, efficiency, and an edge against the opponent. I'll edit the OP to make it so any ones we like end up on this list.

Thanks for the help :D

Hm, first thing I thought of when you mentioned those catch words was a sword. At first types of swords such as Katana, Masamune, etc., but then Excalibur popped up in to my head and led me to this.

Just a heads-up btw, the Game of Thrones section contains spoilers from the book so anyone following the TV series is advised to not read the descriptions.

Care to inform the rest of us about what in the heck you're talking about?

-edit: Is this about your last blog? Could you maybe link it in the OP to reduce confusion?

Last edit: 2012-05-23 00:51:03

I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

My suggestions aren't so good, but meh.

All awesome :D hax might lead to issues, but is also pretty hilarious. Prussians suggestions take the cake however, very creative stuff.
Also, I was considering respelling acies to AcEZ

like ace-easy

I feel like there are better D&D references, but I couldn't think of anything.

Keep em coming! Maybe we'll have a reddit thread later and people can upvote or downvote the suggestions they like etc. Gotta get some more momentum going first though.
