Results:
Counter-Terrorist (cow n tir/kaunter):
Somebody who wears helmet and defuses bomb. Also sometimes carries one kind of rifle that you can put a silencer on it, Headshot guaranteed.
Terrorist (they roar/te ror):
Bad guys. Daily task involves planting bomb in de_dust2. Must snipe. Camp is optional.
Bot (boat/bot):
Weird jiggling non-player AI that always pwn the players even at difficulty 0. Also a program that can 'play' your online game characters while you are sleeping, so you will be level 400 the next day. None of them knows the word originated from the term 'robot', hence the pronounciation.
Benchstart (ben se tat)
Totally misused command. Initially designed by developers to test a machine's performance. Used here as pure 'speed hack'. None of the players can comprehend what exactly does 'benchmark, start' means. All they know is the instant the command is keyed in, everything is accelerated. Including the amount of them getting pwned by headshots from bots of difficulty 0
NoClip (amazingly, one of the words that is pronounced as it is intended to be - no clip/no kelip)
Another abused command when cheats are enabled. Defines how good you're in game, because not everybody *cough* can fly through walls and give a headshot at high speed.
Noob (knob/nob)
Terms the pros use to diss the Novices. Also used to show who (imaginatively) 'own' the game. Also, a direct replacement of the word 'stupid'.
p/s: If you don't understand what I'm saying. Don't bother trying! And YES I'm bored and have nothing better to do. Really!
