We questioned a corpmate's use of 'blue wiggle' when describing the handy effect when a warp is initiated to a hole.

He argued 'it's a ******* wiggle' which, on balance, is hard to deny...

Any others in use?

I just say "hole is jello'd". Nothing like seeing a hole jiggle and jiggle when a large fleet warps to it.

I usually just get pissed off at CCP when it happens, people seem to understand.

It does the same thing that happens when a hole shrinks. At least that's what I see.

Yeah we call it confusion.

"Must have been!"
"Get tackle ready"

We now call blue warps if we know somebody is watching a below 50% hole. Well the non assholes do.

We had a guy do that a few days after Rubicon. Sat on comms and would fake warp, cause the twerk, and then say "wubwubwubwub."

The guy on the hole had no idea what was going on.

This.

On good days, I call it a wobble.

More often, I call it a bug.

Sometimes I add, "Hey James, has CCP committed to fixing this yet?"

First I ask if the hole has changed stage

Then I ask if it's activated

Then when nothing shows up, I assume a warp. I fondly refer to it as the "wtfwub"

If thuggin' was a category I'd win a Grammy

By the time you ask for confirmation of an activation, their scout already went thru.

Bob Artis, you will be missed.
