Casinomeister's Glossary - the Babelmeister

**IanO** · 10th January 2012, 07:04 PM

Not sure why, but some of the letters at the top of the glossary dont seem to link right.
I clicked 'd' and it took me to the 'd' definitions.... but clicking 'p' did nothing.....

Oh... and an addition... may seem obvious but we're not all native english speakers:

R - Rep. -- a representative or someone speaking on behalf of a casino or organisation.
PM - Private Message -- send the 'rep' a 'PM' before you PAB

AL!

Two that I've had to ask about
YMMV - Your mileage may vary
ATM - At the moment

And one that might be confusing for newbies (I figured it out by myself but it took awhile)
SUB - Sign up bonus

Also most of us who have been playing for awhile have acronymned casino and casino group names - like FL, JF, CR, CWC, JPC, (All Star Slots

) so maybe that could be mentioned also....?

Yeah, I know, I thought I'd mention something about that but ... didn't want to confuse the issue I guess.
