What do you call a person who plays DROD? A DRODer? A DRODist?

I've always thought of us as DRODiacs, for some reason.

I always went with DRODders. Even though I call the game D-ROD.

So we're DRODicts then?




I really don't like that term, because I think most of us who play the game are not really addicted to DROD.

I'm also the only one who can complete the game in my area, but the fact that I play DROD hardly ever comes up

There's one thread where we made acronyms for the game out of our names. It was quite cool. I forget where it is though.

A quick search (there's a search link up near the top) brings up this topic: http://www.drod.net/forum/viewtopic.php?TopicID=1049&page=0#6242

The problem with this smiley: is that it looks like the Neo-smiley is making the bullets fall, then licking them off the ground.

Back on-topic - I personally use either DRODers or DRODists, where the former has a stronger implication of playing the game, and the latter of posting on the forums.

I like 'DRODeratus,' or 'DRODerati' for the plural. But I'm a big fan of Latin. Alas.

Unfortunately, it would have to decline when you change case, so it may get a little inconvenient. I assume it is a 1st declension noun though.

Oh, and you'd have to make it a 2nd declension noun if you were referring to a female.

The more Latin I hear, the less I think I want to learn it.

Of course, I do quite enjoy dog Latin.

DRODeram
DRODeras
DRODerat
DRODeramus
DRODeratis
DRODerant

So many possibilities, especially when you bring in stuff like DRODerata!
