New Names? Warning: Reading This Will Kill Brain Cells!

[SpeedSkewber]

I find myself saying a lot of lame and direct names for methods and sub-steps (I know 25 methods and sub-steps combined), but the idea here is to make a new name for certain things like the last layer. In the last layer for Fridrich, i think it should be called like "Blitz" or "gogogogog!" or as Drew Brads would put it "Spam TPS and hope for the best" because of how many algorithms are pumped out. If any of you have ever played a card game or watched sports you'll notice that tghere are names for a bunch of things that sound all cool, and when you look at cubing we have..."OLL" that's not to exciting. I think I'm rambling so I'll just cut this short and post names I thought of below.

V-Perm="Death"
T-Perm,U-Perms, and A-Perms= Getting up and yelling "GET SHRECKED!!" or just call them Shreck cases (I hope all of you get the joke)
F (R U R' U') F' OLL= "Feliks Fingers" Case
When you get that weird OLL parity on 6x6= "Rage Like Kevin Hays Case"

Also tip for Y-Perm on big cubes, Use this alg
R2 U' R2 U' R2 Dw" R2 U R2 U R2

What. No.

The current naming system is already good. No need to make things complicated

 

[tseitsei]

Why?

What's wrong with the current ones?

 

[SpeedSkewber]

I just thought it would be funny to see what people could come up with, it's something we could all get a laugh out of

Fun Names

What. No.

There is a need to so what funny names people can make

Bearing in mind that most move sequences have viable reverses, too, I think you should carefully choose the name so that when reversed, it's also a word (or close). Like: flow / wolf ; maps / spam ; snips / spins. (I cheated and looked these up on the interwebs).
If anyone has a move that could be called the Rotator, or the Radar, let us know.....

Okay, tell me a funny one and I might change my mind. So far I've seen none

 

[natezach728]

Well now all my names are screwed up.

 

[Dyys]

Names would be good for team 3blds.

 

[G2013]

I don't get it

It's not necessary

"OLL" and "PLL" sound really cool (?)

 

[pdilla]

Can we call a slow PLL skip recog "The Homeschooler?"

Haha thats a good one! (cubecast is lol)

 

[willtri4]

I'm homeschooled and don't get it.

 

[penguinz7]

I'm homeschooled and don't get it.

It's a reference to collin burns (a homeschooler/WR holder who apparently has slow recog). btw I'm also a homeschooler.

 

[molarmanful]

All PLL's sub-0.5 should be called "Level Maskow".

Maybe a case that does several cube rotations? Or call people rotators when they do too many cube rotations?

 

[Seanliu]

I think this wouldn't be too much of an issue, but what about foreigners who do not speak English?

 

[SpeedSkewber]

Make them universal for the whole community! We will infect THE WHOLE COMMUNITY!

 

[cashis]

No, we won't

 

[jamessorsona]

the current cubing terminologies are fine, I guess
