I realized that I throw around a lot of terms without realizing that some members have no idea what the stuff is. Here's some of it, some original, some military, some other.
War-Related:
Ridgewood Militia [RM]: A local water war team, co-commanded by 4 people, including myself and Nibordude.
Waterbridge: A local water war team, co-commanded by Belisaurius and Guderian, a rival to the Ridgewood Militia.
Step-off: start a manuever/war
"Standard" 1HK Lives: Our local favorite style of gameplay.
Scenario-Based 1HK Lives: 1HK Lives, but winning objectives scores points rather than kills.
Echelon, flank, double envelopment, etc.: Military tactics.
Tech Related:
Douchenator: A popular style of inline water balloon launcher, invented by Nibordude, and used as artillery in the Ridgewood Militia.
Veronica: Just in case this ever pops up. My friend Mike's name for his Douchenator.
APR [Air Pressure Revolution]: Type of air pressure homemade designed for battle practicality.
CPR [Constant Pressure Revolution]: Same as above, only with CPS tech.
PVC Piston Pumper [PPP]: A type of piston pressure homemade.
N00b Killer: An air pressure homemade bearing the first inverted-T pc.
PC-Swapping Integration [PCSI]: Taking a spherical pc from a certain CPS soaker and putting it a different spherical pc CPS soaker.
Inverted-T: A type of pc in homemade water guns that improves linear flow, recognized by the upside down T shape.
Multi-Nozzle Mod: My name for the mod involving the replacement of a gun's nozzle with PVC fittings that give one in theory infinate nozzle settings.
Community Related:
ISCF [iSoaker Community Forums]: The original name of the iSoaker forums. I still use that abbreviation for whatever reasons.
SM [Soaker Media]: Site and forums run by Nibordude and myself.
SSC: This one is obvious.
Join the Revolution: The SM slogan, although applies more to my efforts to educate the community about new tech and tactics in the quest for re-invigorating the wars part of water wars. I try to bring the next level down to you if you can't bring yourself up to it.

Good stuff! So THAT'S what Veronica is... I'm not sure whether to feel enlightened or worried.
BTW, would you mind if I added some of these terms to the to-be-revised glossary of terms here at iSoaker.com?
