When I was very young and first started playing CC, most monsters had their own names before I knew what they were really called. Some of mine were pretty hilarious:
- Teeth were "frogs" as I said on another thread.
- Gliders had no name because I didn't even know what the heck they were.
- Paramecia were "bugs".
- Bees were bees (what most people call bugs or spiders nowadays).
- Tanks were tankers.
- Pink balls were "killing things".
- Walkers were "balls with sticks through them".
- Fireballs were "fireflies".
- Blobs were "cloudy things", or simply "clouds", and sometimes even "apple treetops".
- Traps were "sticky things".
- Teleports were "transporters".
- Thiefs were "firemen".
- Recessed walls were "Appearing blocks" or simply "blocks".
Everything else was referred to by their obvious official names, pretty much.
What did you think certain tiles were before you learned their official names? Any particularly hilarious ones?
