What did you call monsters and other CC objects when you were younger?

I used to call the exit the 'Winpart' for a long time too.

I also called recessed walls 'pop-up' walls, but that's not really abnormal.


LOL, I think glider = fork is the funniest one yet. It's so arbitrary.

Well, I used to call Teeth as "Frog" and Glider as "Fish". Smiley

Glider was spaceship, and I don't know what walkers were except that I almost always hated them. I remember distinctly knowing paramecia and blobs by their regular names because they were named in the decade and level messages.

Where was the paramecium named in a decade message or hint in CC1?

Sorry, it wasn't a decade message I was thinking of, it was one of Melinda's special dispatches from the CHIPS.HLP file, the one for CHCHCHIPS:

Dear Chip, I stutter with excitement when I think of the 170 chips I left in this area! Timing is important. You'll no doubt run across, or be run over by, my pet

paramecium. He's been all alone in the lab for too long. You'll have to move fast to snatch the last chip away from him. I expect you might be trampled a few times, but believe me, Chip, it can be done! Apologetically, Melinda

I used to call paramecia "Carpets" or "Rugs" and thiefs were "Robbers".

Back then, I didn't even know what the Paramecium was until Chipedit. It just looked like some brown thing with legs, and the Theif as "That cool guy with Sunglasses".

The thief is definitely the essence of "cool" within the CC universe.
