COC

Formerly the tactical World War 2 game Chain Of Command, and now the similar tactical World War 2 game Call Of Combat. Pretty cool, high learning and mastery curve.

Chain Of Command blew up along with 2am.com. There are rumors that it will come back (Under heavy costs to play it) but since Call Of Combat is an exact clone...

WWID

Acronym for "What would I do?"

This is commonly used in roleplay (like D&D, for example) when you're RPing as yourself and must stop to think "What would I do?" before you make your character take an action. Otherwise, you'd say it when faced with a very tough decision. This is somewhat similar to WWJD.

You also say this before someone's going to get themselves killed, and you don't know what you'd do without them.
1. "Hmm, alone, and surrounded by 10 bloodthirsty shadow dragons. WWID?"
"I could buy some pizza, or some tacos. WWID?"

2. "WWID if you died? I don't know - that's what!"

alias

Another name that people use to disguise themselves. This can be done anywhere, but is usually online because it is hard to identify someone's true name except through their IP address, which isn't foolproof.

Variations on the word are aliasing, the present tense verb form, and aliaser, referring to the actual person hiding behind their false name, whose identity will never change (in online situations).

Aliasing is frowned upon because people may think that you're a new person, or in small-community games where everybody knows everybody, possibly even cheating. People like to get to know a regular client's personality, and develop a friendship or rivalry with them. Aliasing disrupts this, since you never know if you're talking with friend or foe.
That guy...He must be using an alias.

I think Bob is here, but he's aliasing.

The aliaser is aliasing if he uses an alias.
