Talk:Trichording

Trichording
I don't think this should be capitalised, or a noun. The definitions is "(slang, gaming) Moving in multiple directions, or about multiple axes.", which I don't think is correct. --Volants 18:10, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * So why's it here? Move to rfc. Equinox might be our most experienced user in terms of gaming. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:21, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I can see a couple of dozen uses of this term on Usenet. The capital letter seems to be wrong; I would expect trichording. There are also mentions of bichording (moving in two axes at once?). It seems to be almost exclusive to a single game, Descent (1995), which possibly raises the "fictional universes" spectre. Equinox ◑ 16:56, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Just found this on Wikipedia: "Particularly in first-person shooters (FPSs), straferunning (known as speed-strafing among players of GoldenEye and Perfect Dark, and as trichording among players of the Descent series) is a technique that allows a player to run or fly faster through levels by moving forwards and sideways (strafing) at the same time."
 * Moved to trichording with a redirect.--Jusjih 07:56, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
