Topic

Glitch Dictionary- Work in progress, would love suggestions of what to add

Coins, Quoins, Koins,- So many different spellings for all the same things.  These are the little things floating in air that can provide you Mood, energy or Imagination.  The amounts of mood, energy and Imagination you get are dependent on your mood level, 90% or higher gets you most, your Coin Multiplier and your level.
 
Coin Multiplier-  As mentioned earlier, your coin multiplier has a great effect on the coins you collect.  When you are a level one glitch, your coin multiplier is one.  As you get more Imagination, you can collect upgrade cards (talked about later) to increase your coin Multiplier so that you can get more use out of one coin.

Cubimals, Cubis, Cubi... - All used to define little square objects that you can collect.  Can you catch them all without spending your life savings, and then some.  I think not, also easier to get by trading with others.

Currents- Not the fruit, but in game currency!  You can sell items to vendors for currents or get them for rewards from quests.

EHSP- Acronym for extremely hallowed shrine powder, a powder that makes the gods think you have donated three times what you have actually donated, shhhhhh! :D 

Fwagging - Used for emphasis or to express anger, annoyance, or contempt. 

Glitch, Glitchen, Glitchens...- These words are used to all mean the same thing, the people who play glitch.  There is still a discussion about which is the right plural word to use, but if you ever see this word, its talking about a person or people who play glitch.

Imagination, IMG- Imagination is what you earn for actions you do during the game, for example, squeezing a chicken.  As you collect and gain IMG throughout the game, you can go spend it on upgrade cards, that can improve skills you already have, or give you new opportunities like Snap-shotting.

Juju- These are little licorice shaped creatures that run around the Ancestral lands, stealing your items for their all powerful, all knowing queen.  You can dodge these by jumping then changing streets.  There are badges relating to jumping and dodging these, so do well young glitch.  Finally, sometimes when you try to load a page on glitch.com, the servers will not load it, so instead they show a picture of the bad jujus and say they are running amok and you have to reload the page.

Lobe - the overwhelming emotion many glitchen use to describe their feelings towards each other...or Stoot...or Squid Cubimals...  

Mood- Your mood is shown in the upper lft corner.  It is your face, when you are happy the background is blue, sparkly and you have a huge grin.  Your mood can drop all the way to zero mood (when you die for example) and you will be frowning, very sad, and it will be a cloudy, rainy day in the background of your face.

Oh Sloth knockers! - An expletive of anger, annoyance or frustration.

OMG- No longer the connection to religion of real life, now relates to Oh My Giants, the "gods" that we appease during the game.

Refresh! - the solution to most of your in-game problems! Also known as F5... =) 

Salt / Pinch of Salt -  A tiny pinch of very salty salt.   Make by grinding one allspice with a spicemill.

SDB- Acronym for storage display box, a box that seems to store almost an infinite amount of one single item. You can place these in your house. 

Skills- As you progress through glitch, you will have the opportunity to learn many exciting skills.  Until you specifically know your style of game play, and what you like to do in glitch, I would suggest learning all the skills to experiment with them.  

Soon™- This is the trademarked version of soon, that is Tiny Specks, the people who wrote this game.  This version of soon means anywhere from some time in the future to before never.

Two Weeks - Stoot's personal, slightly more precise measurement of soon. (Stoot being the one and all powerful staff member in game.  Just kidding there are more great, hard working staff. :D)
Upgrade cards- These are cards that you can buy using the IMG you have amassed over all your non-stop game play.  These help upgrade your character.

  • You'll probably find most of what is useful already at www.glitch-strategy.com/wik... but I'm sure a dictionary all of its own would be very interesting indeed.
    I'd work through each of the categories, like food, and expain where each came from for reference. like the sammich :)

  • Hahaha! What a great idea!

    Maybe we should include acronyms too? (Like OMG-ohmigiants!, SDB-storage display box, EHSP-extremely hallowed shrine powder, you get the idea).

    (feel free to edit!) =P

  • Sloth Knockers = something you say when you're frustrated, e.g. 'Oh sloth knockers, I have donated all of my All Spice'

    Edit: I just noticed it is already in your list! Squeeeee:)

    Also - I have seen a lot of people use Ur to replace the word your as a play on words or incorporated into words like Urniverse/Urth, etc.

    Of course there needs to be a prisencolinensinainciusol entry and its association with the game, and events like Zilloween
