Insio Nores	Posted - 2006.02.03 03:50:00 - [1] Okay, I admit it. I'm a sad, lonely man who wouldn't be cool if you froze me in carbonite. But what does ftw mean? -- Nores
Blind Man	Posted - 2006.02.03 04:01:00 - [2] 4tw or ftw means 'for the win', ie: cap relays and shield boosters for the win.
Insio Nores	Posted - 2006.02.03 06:10:00 - [3] Thank you! I can now comprehend another 5% of the forums! -- Nores
Dak Hakin	Posted - 2006.02.03 06:50:00 - [4] For the win? Hell. I thought it meant feed the whales. sigh Now what am I gonna do with all these damn whales in my backyard? _______________________________________________ Proudly serving Electus Matari Mr. Grumpy-sour-pus
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.02.03 07:43:00 - [5] Please don't ever say this. Every time you say this, baby Jesus cries and God kills a kitten and my blood pressure rises a bit. If I ever say this, I inflict serious pain upon myself to atone for my crimes. -------------------------------------[04:04:04] Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!

Jesus can finger bang his tiny baby *******, God can push two or three kittens into his rectal cavity and your blood pressure can rise till you got steamed blood shooting out ya ears like a tea kettle. but people aint gonna stop saying FTW. just cuz.....its c00l. just like p30p13 w0n7 s70p sp34\|<1ng 1n 1337 sp3a\|< owwww. that hurt my head

At least thats what the ones in my backyard insist. _______________________________________________ Proudly serving Electus Matari Mr. Grumpy-sour-pus
Butter Dog	Posted - 2006.02.03 12:44:00 - [8] A simple fact for you: 'FTW' and similar geek-phrases such as '1337' are never uttered by well adjusted human beings with social skills. Do bear that in mind before considering its usage...
Simon Jax	Posted - 2006.02.03 15:45:00 - [9] I dunno, For the Win isn't a gaming exclusive phrase. It's been around for decades, used by sporting commentators and whatnot. Sure, FTW is used somewhat differently (and more wantonly) in intercyberwebio-land, but it isn't a massive difference. I think a far greater transgression than FTW is when I actually hear people say "owned" or say "lol" phonetically out-loud. Thankfully, this has not happened often. --Wherever you go, there you are.

Do bear that in mind before considering its usage... Of course there are people who use 'leet' speak ironically, the problem is irony doesn't always work on the Internet. And using 'leet' speak ironically is soooo 1998 .

What Joe Mozart said. A good number of us who use such things are using them sardonically. Sarcasm 4tw. (Much love, Nikolai!) Me. Edit: Have I mentioned making Baby Jesus Cry is an amusing passtime? Edit 2: And, Nikolai, did you not notice that "4tw" is in your sigfile?

[/i] Yes, it's so hard to convey irony on the internet Seriously though, saying FTW isn't a cardinal sin or anything, but it's something that should be avoided.

Morphisat	Posted - 2006.02.04 10:09:00 - [16] To be honest, FTW or 4TW is getting a bit old, can someone come up with something new ? -- http://www.morphisat.tk - Eve Blog
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.02.04 10:35:00 - [17] How about "is/are Nik's Nads"? Instead of "T2 railguns FTW!", you would say "T2 railguns are Nik's Nads!" -------------------------------------[04:04:04] Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
