MeLo Replacement Suggestion

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Thu Jun 17, 2021 4:43 pm

from Isis, in the discord:

you know how we refer to wagons as at "E-3" or "E-2" or "E-1"?

Instead of ELo or MeLo or any other equivalents, use P-2 or P-1, for "Parity-1" or "Parity-2."

I for one think that a lack of creativity is no reason to ditch lylo--as just ONE possible example of a not-bound-to-L-word replacement for the abbreviation, it could be "Limless Yeet = LOse" (as in, if you don't eLIMinate someone with your YEET you lose). It could be "Less Yeet = LOse" with a similar "if you're not yeeting someone, you lose". It could be "Limless = Yes, you LOse", also on the same connotation that if you are elimless at end of day you lose. It can also just be eLYm or LOse (with a y instead of an i to keep the abbreviation).

There's dozens, even hundreds, of possible word combos for LyLo that do not carry the weight of the L word inherent in them.

MyLo has similar. "Miss your Yeet, you LOse". "MisYeet and LOse", etc. The term mylo has even LESS ties to the L word than lylo does because it's a term born from a term. (Lylo predates mylo with mylo being a term made to distinguish...well, mylo, from lylo.)

Using Parity-# implies singleball no-neutral games, which is explicitly true in Mini Normals only.

If you want terms that sound like the old terms I would suggest MU's replacements: LiLo and MiLo

pedit: So does 3p ELo or F-3 actually. In a multiball or SK game you have the possibility of being in a Dilemma instead.

YoLo works for

So MeLo would be MYLo (

I can't believe Yeet is turning into a core mafia term
Wow you're so good at avoiding death and killing slots that are not part of the informed minority. Wow how are you so good at playing this game.

I don't like it that much, Inthink it's cringey to the point where it feels uncomfortable when others say it.

Idk, it seems like the only correct way to describe "Fus-Ro-Dah"ing creatures off mountain tops in Skyrim, so I think it's a fair description of the goal here.

That doesn't make it any less ceingey than when a Flat Earther rehashes their talking points again, when you can obviously see the holes.

No, i hate change.

Not every game ends with parity. Sometimes youneed to win by D3 or can't kill vt twice.
