Do you think we, as gamers, should create some sort of greeting we can use to unearth fellow gamers nearby? If so, give me some suggestions and I'll add a poll

"RELOADING!"
Hrm... The Cake is a Lie doesn't work any more, considering that it has non-gamer fans.
What about, "You're likely to be eaten by a grue."?

It would probably be a quote from a well know game, like how trekies have the vulcan hand thing and "live long and prosper."

don't ask me what game it would be from, maybe halo3 maybe FF7. there are so many games you could pick from, but if there were to be a greeting it would work best if it was something like what the trekies have.

Not sure enough people know what a grue is. But you may be on the right track.

That one plays to an older audience in a big way, doesn't it, I guess you might end up building on the divisions that exist within the gaming community. Dunno, would that be counter to your purpose?

Once agian, too many non-gamer fans.

I know!
When someone talks to you, say, "Buy Sell Cancel."
Perhaps more like, "Buy? Sell... Cancel!" or something like that.

See, as popular as those games are, I don't think that they are popular enough. Think about the gamers that have stopped playing, or still play their old favorites.

It would have to be something like that!

Perhaps the noise from Pac Man when you die, "WEE-WEE-WEE-WEE-WEE-WOOP-WOOP!" If I heard that at the bar, I'd be obligated to buy that person a beer!

Another great classic that would work could be "I'm in your _____ _____ing your _____." Example, you could be in a bar or some other social place and announce "I'm in ur bar, drinking ur beers" and see if anyone catches it.

Press Start.

Isn't that a pretty universal gaming convention that has been carried on even to this day? At the same time, though, it is a little vague and still would ring a bell with non-gamers.

This is a amazing idea, although I can't really think of anything profound.

I love it. So nerdy, yet awesome.

Maybe just pick a random bird call or something. " Kacaaaaaaw"?

how about; "sorry I'm in another castle." or some slight change to an on game line. if there are any from sonic or mega man that would work that would be cool too.
