Michi

In Real-Time Strategy games, notably Age of Empires, a type of game map that uses impassable terrain (usually forest) to prevent players from rushing or coming into contact until the intervening terrain is cleared. Such maps teach bad RTS gaming habits to new players, as they prevent the development of rapid-response early game skills and encourage reckless booming.

There's so many Michi maps on the AOE servers these days that you can't have a decent game any more!

googleblatted

Term used to describe the failure of a Web server due to overload as a result of being linked to from a popular website, such as Google. The archetypal example was when the University of Swinbourne's web server crashed after Google linked its logo to it in February 2004. Millions of people clicked on the link, flooding the university's servers and forcing them to shut down. The term carries the additional connotation that highly popular sites such as Google wield considerable political power in this manner.

The University of Swinbourne's fractal website went down for nearly a week when it was first googleblatted and then slashdotted two days later.

fifth wheel

n. Person who accompanies two (or more) couples in a social situation, who does not have a partner of his or her own. Often the fifth person's attendance is encouraged by one of the well-meaning but ignorant female partners, who may feel sorry for the lonely person, but will inevitably ignore them once the lovemaking starts. It carries the connotation that the fifth person is often an unneccesary and unwelcome addition to the scene in these conditions. Derived from "the fifth wheel of a car", which needing only four wheels to run, has no need of a fifth.

"Jim and Sue, Mike and Sally invited me to come camping with them, but I refused as I would only have been the fifth wheel on my own!"
