Hey, did lugnet ever have a glossary of terminologies that are commonly used to
this site? I remember someone way back explaining certain abbreviations like
ABS and TLG vs. TLC, but I was looking for a greater point of reference and
couldn't find one.
Andrew, i was thinking "c-fig" for creator fig or "4+fig" for the same (the line
has seemingly undergone some name changes here and there), but this seems like
something worth discussing with the larger lugnet community. Would "d-fig" work
for duplo? 'q-fig" for quatro? does it even matter? I'm such a nerd. I should
probably be building. I'm out

Word, chime in if you can folks, as nerdy and anal-retentive as it is, I do
think it helps our community to avoid confusion if we have some semblence of
standardization on our colloquialisms (that's a $5 word for slang)
hey LUGNET big shots, what's up with a glossary?
Play Well,
Damien
