 * Slang for "obsidian" in video games. I raised this word in the Tea Room recently. To summarise discussion there: it seems that no game uses this "in-universe" but it is used as slang by players. Mainly (?) Minecraft, but also (the one citation I found and added) Runecraft. (Er, despite the similar names I don't think those games are related.) Equinox ◑ 21:36, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Re-created by AntisocialRyan; one sense (i.e., “obsidian”) had failed RFV with one quotation (which AntisocialRyan re-used), thus removed. J3133 (talk) 16:54, 29 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Just to note here: I mentioned on my talk page that I didn't know about the failed RFV and existing citation. I did find the quotation on my own separately, just a coincidence. Nothing malicious like it sounds here. Also, the RFV for obsidian had no discussion it seems. AntisocialRyan (talk) 19:42, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Also I believe you meant to link to Talk:obby and not "Talk:cunt". :) AntisocialRyan (talk) 19:44, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
 * That was not malicious, and I suggest you read how we verify terms. J3133 (talk) 23:18, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I know how we verify terms, I didn't know it was denied already. That's all, not trying to fight. Thanks for changing the talk page link. Also, I was referring to myself when saying it wasn't malicious. AntisocialRyan (talk) 00:47, 30 June 2021 (UTC)


 * How is this uncountable, when "obstacle course" cannot be? Equinox ◑ 15:27, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
 * It was uncountable for "obby" meaning obsidian, but that sense was removed. They forgot to remove that as well. I fixed it, thanks! AntisocialRyan (talk) 19:08, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

RFV-failed Although there are three cites on the citations page, they are for three different meanings. Clearly just a nonce. Kiwima (talk) 02:20, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

I found more cites for “obstacle course” (search ). J3133 (talk) 13:03, 21 August 2021 (UTC)
