Oh hai.
Definition for the Word of the Year (Taken from Wikipedia):
The Word of the year is the most important word or expression in public discussion.
Definition for the Unword of the Year (Taken from Wikipedia):
The Unword of the year is deemed inappropriate and an insult to human dignity.
First, Second and Third place in both categories will be crowned as the winners.
The Vote will take place at this place, after the nomination timeframe, which is from now until Sunday, 17/2 23:59 EVE. This might be extended, depending on the community response.
After that the Vote will run for 1 week, where you will be able to vote 1 time and 1 time only for the Word, aswell as the Unword of the Year.
I nominate "Ambulation" for the Word of the Year and "Vagabond" for the Unword of the Year myself.
Words that get nominated multiple times will get a higher priority when choosing the final vote options, as there is a limit of max 10 different words for each category. So speak up, even if your favorite word has already been nominated.
Nominated Words:
- Word
1. Ambulation Nominated 1 Time
- Unword
1. Nanogangs Nominated 1 Time
Now lets hear your words. : >

Unword:
YARR
Reason:
Seems like almost any pirate and wannabe-pirate seem to think it is a prerequisite to use this word extensively to emphasize how dangerous, yet leet, they are.

Word of the Year: lag
Clearly on everyone's mind - many posts about it, discussion on TS and channels about lag in any given system (esp Jita)

Unword of the year:
Nerf
Why? Because any time CCP changes anything, even if it's specifically a boost, somehow someone starts whining that it's a nerf. If CCP boosted noob frigates people would claim that it's a combat frigate nerf.

Word: Lag No explanation required.

Word of the Year:
"nano"
verb. To apply the fittings required to allow a ship to be fast and agile enough to travel at a velocity that allows it to "speed tank"
Unword of the Year:
"Nanof*g"
Noun. Someone who is only willing to fly ships that have been Nano'd because they are believed to be to cowardly to fight with a "normal" tank.

your voting place sucks and has "**** off" as a header...
Ive noticed that 99.9% of people on these forums have a signature. If you are one of the 0.1% that doesnot have a sig, copy this into your sig, and display your defiance towards people with sigs. |
