A measurement used to distinguish between items of work that are all deemed by the customer to be the highest priority.
When everything is priority 1, you can calculate the total priority by asking what order those tasks should be done in. The total priority is a representation of this order, for instance 1a, 1b, 1c.
If you find you end up with multiple items with the same total priority, simple repeat the process and append another letter e.g. 1aa, 1ab, 1ac until they get the message.

Get the total priority mug.Chris Taylor's "T.A" (Cavedog 1997) is slightly famous amongst RTS enthusiasts for being a ground-breaking real time strategy game.
There were only two sides - "The Arm" and "The Core" - cloned humans and robots respectively with essentially similar units, although Core units tended to be tougher and slower. The game made up for this by having a LOT of units (Air, Naval, Ground, Amphibious, Commanders that nuked themselves when they died) and buildings (particularly a massive number of fixed gun emplacement types), (effectively) endless resources (Metal and Energy), and comprehensive control options.
This game was best experienced with the expansion "The Core Contingency" - or "C.C" (eg: Submersible Aircraft, Anti Radar and Anti Sonar units, more Submarines, AA Ships...) together with still more official downloadable Cavedog units (eg: FARK's, Mobile Anti-Nuclear Missile Units). Has it been mentioned that this game had a LOT of units?
Cavedog used to run "Boneyards" (similar to Blizzard's "Battlenet") which was the optimal place to enjoy T.A in multiplayer. Players could elect to play for either side in a constantly refreshed galaxy of planets - where the results of one's games would decide whether the Arm or Core dominated at any given time. Boneyards also had an military style ranking system based on a player's wins.
In closing, T.A was a remarkable game for its time and for sheer strategic and tactical options it would compare favourably with any RTS currently on the market.
T.A has a LOT of units.
NB: There is an "unofficial sequel" to this game being developed by Chris Taylor (now at Gas Powered Games)called "Supreme Commander".

Get the Total Bullshit mug.A hassle so complete in its totality or so total in its completeness that it is likely hard to equal. For example: The gates of Hell have been reopened or you have run out of milk on a Sunday evening.
Dr. Rick Dagless: I re-closed the gates of Hell as soon as I could, but Darkplace has never been the same since. And with Larry back, it feels like the gates could reopen any second, and that's the last thing I need.
Dr Lucien Sanchez: You're overworked as it is.
Dr. Rick Dagless: Tell me about it. It'll be a total hassle.

Get the Total Slaughter mug.T.E.C. Is the closest possible approximated measure of energy expended in any biochemical and or socioeconomic process from start (A) to finish (B) generally portrayed in calories and represented as a percentage in decimal form.
i.e. A boat carrying a load from South Africa to Beijing has a stand still value of (Xcalories) @ point (A)=Xcal. divided by the total calculable energy in calories expensed in “fuel”, “labor”, “payload loss” and “mechanical breakdown” used upon reaching point (B)=Xcal. where {Xt.e.c. = (A)Xcal. / (B)Xcal.}.
*Xt.e.c. = Total Efficiency Coefficient, (T.E.C.)
