    I just searched General and it turns out, I'm the only person who has ever called the Big Torpedo the "Bigpedo". By extension, I'm also the only person to ever say "Tripedo", and no one has uttered the term "Swiftpedo" even once. This is utter madness. This community is failing in the coolness department, the intelligence department, the humor department, the imagination department, the torpedo department... just... everything. You guys are failing at everything.

    I've taken the liberty to come up with a slightly shorter version of every item in the game. Faster than the full name for the most part, but less lame and confusing than acronyms. What's not to love? Just read on, and you will see my genius! (from left to right in order of their appearance in the shop):
    - "Cane"
    - "Blacken"
    - "Snappen"
    - "Expy" (alidocious)
    - "Carrots"
    - "Greens"
    - "Stortar"
    - "Loiter"
    - "Parker"
    - "BERTA"
    - ":0"
    - ";)"
    - ">:3"
    - "Rain"
    - "Silo"
    - "Mini"
    - "Flay"
    - "FIYAH"
    - "Blaze"

    - "Steel"
    - "Bigpeel"
    - "GO"
    - "Goob"
    - "Fins"
    - "Adhesive Medical Strips"

    - "GOMORE"
    - "Flash"
    - "Asterisks"
    - "Tilde"
    - "Raster"
    - "Frosty"

    - "Rox"
    - "Airblast"
    - "The Duke"
    - "Pair Bolt"

    Now, I'm sure, with the exception of "BERTA", you could use any one of these new names and everyone would instantly know what you were talking about. Except now you will now have the added bonus of sounding hip, cool, and ahead of the game. Just try it!
    And please don't take down the post for the obvious jokes I'm making about the torpedoes...

    ^Only listed half the items, because apparently the other half aren't mentioned enough or aren't important enough to have shortened versions (or already have short names). "What's your build?" "SC, SC, BT, BB, Explosive Cannon" "I see..."

    Here's my alternate list of names for the items in the game, using as many characters as I want:
    - The Undercompensator
    - Boomstick
    - Cheapshot Cannon
    - 100% Crit Chance Against Enforcers (otherwise AoE)
    - B-buh... but I'm the boomstick... QQ
    - Chibimortar: Friendly smile on the outside, burning fires of hell on the inside!
    - The Original
    - The Straight Upgrade From The Original
    - NEVER MISS, ALWAYS WIN
    - Never hit, always descend into a spiraling depression, the likes of which will eventually lead to a terrible death only delayed by pills and- oh wow, it did over 2000 damage. o_o
    - I'm getting the rope if this one doesn't hit something. Everyone hates me, I'm so tired, I wasted my life maxing this piece of... it just insta'd the entire enemy team. LIFE IS GOOD AGAIN!!!
    - Maybe I should just I get a Big Torpedo and stop being such a wuss...
    - I <3 Walls
    - Make Sniping Difficult, But Look Cool
    - Chooses a Random Amount of Damage Between 0 and 3,000,000
    - **** * ** * ** * ******** * ** * ** ******* ******** *** ******* **** ** **** **** **** **** **** ****** ******** ** * ** * (Signed, Speeder)
    - Get Ready to Feel My Boomstick!
    - I Hate Water
    - Get Ready to Feel All of Our Boomsticks!

    - Protection :p
    - REAL Protection
    - Now You Can't Pass Drug Tests
    - Can I Use It On Anything Else?
    - Why won't anyone love me? QQ
    - Stick With Me, And All Your Holes Will Be Covered

    - Okay, Maybe You Should Cool It, Man...
    - I j-j-just need one m-more h-h-hit man... j-just one more...
    - *** * ****** * ** ** **** * ** ** * ** * ***** **** *** ** **** *** ***** ***** **** ***** **** *** *** ** ** * ** ** ******** **** ********* SECONDS?! ************ *** * ** ** *** ** ******* * ********* ** * ** * ******* * ********* * * * *** * *** * * ** ** * ** ** ********** ** **** ** ** ********** ****** ***** ***** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** ******* ************ ************ *** *** * ** * * ** ** **** * ** * *** *** *** *** ** ** ** ******** *** ** **** ******* ******* * * ** * ** * ** *** * * * **** * ** * * ** * * ****** ** YOU **** ****** ***** *** ** *** ** ** ** *** **** ***** *** **** *** ** *** ** ******** * ****** ** ** *** * ** ******* ** ** **** ** *** ** *** *** * (Signed, Shooter and Defender)
    - HAH HAH HAH, no one can kill me now! Not without most of the weapons in the game!
    - Mr. Blastman... bring me a dream... make it the meanest, that he's ever seen...
    - Serious Optimism

    - Casual Optimism
    - When You Simply Can't Trust Your Team to Get It Done
    - Automatic Grandstander
    - When You Simply Can't Trust THAT GUY to Get It Done

    Stay classy :cool:

    Now i see others perspective when i build my gas jet turbine, working out if my compressor will work efficiently & create the shockwave as the air gets thrown back in the opposite direction, enough for it to help ignite the gas in the combustion chamber creating a vortex of mixed fuel exploding out back where it will be forced out by the turbine as it spins the centre shaft turning the centrifugal compressor & becomes self sustained & when they tell me i have too much time on my hands !
