ATW 

Nathan Fillion created the acronym ATW, which is short for: All The Way. It is often used in conjunction with another one of his phrases: ATS, which is short for Across The Sky.

It means that which is:

•to infinity and beyond

•across the universe

•to the nth degree

•all the way throughout the world

•forever and ever

Here are some usage examples for ATW (All The Way) including some paraphrased from NathanFillion on his Twitter page:

Why are you so awesome? "Because I'm Double Rainbow ATW. (All The Way)."

The TV shows Castle and Firefly are so intense, they are Double Rainbow, ATW. (All The Way)."

Serenity is so vivid, it's Double Rainbow, ATW! (All The Way)!

Having a Captain Hammer musical would be Double Rainbow, ATW! (All The Way!)

The brilliance of Nathan Fillion is so intense, it's Full On Double Rainbow, All The Way Across The Sky! (FO DR ATW ATS!) (These can be combined into one acronym: FODRATWATS!)

ATW 

(abbreviation)
The 'ATW', otherwise known as the 'Aggressive Techno Wank', is an act of male self-gratification performed in times of energy fuelled masterbation requirement, and generally consists of a combination of one or more of the following:

-loud techno/trance/electro/drum&bass music either played through earphones or speakers
-isolation from other humans (see below for the reasons for this, regarding the ATW dance)
-dimmed, or alternatively disco, lighting
-an arm with a functioning hand for enhanced performance is preferable
-the ATW dance (each ATW participant will have his own version of this depending on preference and practice)

The ATW dance requirements and techniques are outlined here:
-standing up, legs wide apart, knees bent
-one arm held out from the body (much like if one was about to high-5 somebody, or if one was a rodeo rider)
-other arm strategically positioned on the knob
-look of determination/concentration on the face
-tug away for three or four beats of the song (rapidly), then perform the following manoeuvre (known as the 'ATW interchange');
-jump slightly of the ground
-whilst in mid air swap the 'tugging' arm and the 'high-5/rodeo' arm around
-upon landing, carry on for 3 or four beats in the new position and repeat the manoeuvre as many times as desired by the athelete
-isolation is key; flailing arms pose a threat to innocent bystanders

Contestant 1: ''Hey buddy where are you off to?''

Contestant 2: ''Oh hi man, I'm just off to my room for an ATW''

Contestant 1: ''I see. Are you doing the ATW dance today?''

Contestant 2: ''You bet.''

ATW 

Average Turns to Win.
In relation to EDH, cEDH, Commander, Magic The Gathering. The average (or expected) number of turns it would take for you to win with a particular deck in a multiplayer Commander game (either Competitive or Casual).
Can be used in place of Power Level, specially when attempting to play at a table where you don't know the other participants or players.

1.- My ATW is 3, I only play it with other cEDH players.
2.- I would say this deck's ATW is 7. This is a new build, but I expect it to go off in turns 6-8 if a get the right pieces.
