	Also accept "non playable character" for npc please.

	dra2k4:	Apr 29th, 2010 at 18:56 GMT		1 point
	@shortman24: Makes sense. Done.

	Wow I really feel stupid for not knowing XP. Also HUD was hard since you never really see it or hear it as the actually name. Loved the secret answer for question 3.

	Coincidentally, XP would be the ideal emoticon to go with feeling. xD Yeah, I only knew what a HUD was thanks to UT's tutorial years ago. But I only realised that after I made this. It's not an acronym quiz for nothing. xD Besides, I felt nice for not putting ZPEFM in.

	Good quiz, though I wish it accepted Field of Vision.

	dra2k4:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 08:49 GMT		1 point
	Thanks for the suggestion. I've added it in.

	psyne:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 15:19 GMT		2 points
	Fun! Variety of difficulty and I didn't have any trouble with answers not being accepted (good mix of alternate answers).

	blademan:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 18:39 GMT		1 point
	Player killer killer? I always heard it as just PK (Player Killing). Also, consider adding in some other ones like MP (Magic/Mana points), or DPS (Damage per second).

	dra2k4:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 19:02 GMT		1 point
	@ psyne: Thanks very much for your comment! :D @ blademan: A PKK is a player that kills PKs. I had ideas for other acronyms, MP, DPS, ZPEFM included, but I thought that 40 was already a lot of typing for the taker. But I'll definitely add more if there's demand.

	Accept "Twisted Metal" for TM, please? Other than that, great quiz.

	dra2k4:	May 1st, 2010 at 12:34 GMT		1 point
	Thanks. Added. :)

	Matty:	May 1st, 2010 at 13:23 GMT		2 points
	This looks really messy, have you thought of just listing the first (or most popular) answer and then putting a ..., lke people do for 'starting with' quizzes? eg. "Donkey Kong..." rather than "Daniel Kayser/Diddy Kong/Dixie Kong/Donkey Kong/Dungeon Keeper"

	MBHS_Its_Ac:	May 1st, 2010 at 13:47 GMT		2 points
	GDI is also spelled "Global Defense Initiative". I was thrown off when that didn't work.

	dra2k4:	May 1st, 2010 at 13:47 GMT		1 point
	After (almost) doubling the number of acronyms, yes, it did cross my mind that I should limit the number of revealed answers. But the difference between this quiz and 'Starting with' ones is that, each acronym covers more diverse topics not fixed to a simple list. As a quizzee, I'd like to see other answers I could have gotten because I knew the subject matter. I'll probably limit it to the top three in the future. Thanks for the comment, it's a good sugggestion.

	@ MBHS_Its_Ac: I messed up. Thanks for the correction. :D

	Yokipi:	May 2nd, 2010 at 04:05 GMT		2 points
	For OP, as far as I could tell, it was taking neither Overpower or Overpowered. And NfS should also take "Not for Sale" in my opinion. And rawr that it won't take "Mass Multiplayer Online", though that doesn't need to be fixed, I suppose.

	dra2k4:	May 2nd, 2010 at 04:38 GMT		1 point
	The number of characters got cut off without me knowing. But it should have accepted 'Overpowe'. xD Anyway, fixed that like with MP. I've added them both in now. Thanks. :D

	riomhaire:	May 5th, 2010 at 14:01 GMT		2 points
	Excellent quiz.

	Super_Smasher:	May 5th, 2010 at 18:10 GMT		1 point
	is ODST really that difficult?

	dra2k4:	May 5th, 2010 at 18:33 GMT		1 point
	@ riomhaire: Thanks. :D @ Super_Smasher: If an acronym is specific to a franchise and its full name is not widely spread with the franchise then I'll mark it as difficult as a person has to know the franchise and a little bit more, which is why I marked GDI as hard. And then for ODST, specifically, a person has to know Halo, Halo 3: ODST and then a little extra. As far as I'm aware, the full name isn't even on the box.

	Not accepting "Wind Waker" for WW?
