Share your CS lingo! - Player Terms Glossary

[Gardienn]

As a long-time player I've come across gameplay elements that needed a word to describe them, but there was none, so I made them up to fill the void. I figure others have the same void, so I'm sharing my couple of words and encourage you to share yours too.

Tell your word, what it means, and how it came about. :)



What do you call a bunch of Alicorns?
A glonder



Some of my friends have a ton of the fluttery creatures and one day, as I tried to comment about a group of them, I couldn't call them a herd because they are fluttery and a gaggle sounded all wrong. Nothing fit their magicalness. Looking at my friend's 20+ Alicorns flutter when I still had none, I thought, that's a glorious wonder. And so, glonder (GLorious + wONDER) was born.


When your kingdom suddenly flashes with a bunch of sparkles it's a...
Flashbang


When you come back to your open app and mid-collection everything spits out as it cycles through a reload:
Cycle Spew



I can't wait to hear what other players have come up with.

When a kingdom is full of random stuff all splapped to each other:
a storagedom

[bogusiawieder]

When all animals are in line next to each other all facing one way:
animarmy

[bogusiawieder]

Another one when a person is full of gem bought things:
A moneywasher

[meme1098]

Those are all fantastic! Lov 'um.

Animarmy especially is good!

[Gardienn]

Good ones!

I call the animals all lined up head to bum a "Bandimal"...(marching) band + animal = Bandimal.

I haven't made up any lingo yet but a nbor of mine calls all of the shovels, flowering cans, bags & yellow arrows over everything ... "Floaties"
I know, simple & childish-sounding ... But we *are* playing a game in a mythical land, here lol.

[bogusiawieder]

I call the group of shovels,watering cans,coins,yellow arrows a flatch (floating+patch)

[dragoniakingdom]

My name for Castle Story is Crash as it seems to be the most consistent in game activity :(

Kingdom Crash:p

Here's one that's up for debate. When you get milk from the cow, that's milking. But what about when you get eggs from a chicken or bacon from a pig?

I still call it milking (ex: "milking for bacon") but my BF calls it baconing/egging/etc. Thoughts?

Also, gotta love how in this Castle Story world, pigs give an endless supply of bacon without having to die. If only that was true in real life. All the bacon loving fiends would never go hungry

[meme1098]

Especially now since there's some mysterious virus affecting the swine population in the real world.
Bacon may be in very short supply soon and skyrocket in price just like beef.

I always called it just collecting.

That would be cool. Then again, maybe it's a good thing, so we don't all have pseudo high cholesterol. lol
