Vincent Lemay math - numerical calculations most frequently involving DK pace calculations based on body building principles which is often an overestimate.

usage
According to Vincent Lemay math, I'm on world record pace, but I only finished at 1.084M.

For the record, Phil coined the term when Vince said, on August 3rd, that the Kong Off was "two and a half months away." ;D

Yeah, and I said Phil Tudose was on pace for 1.1m-1.14m, and he finished at 1,089,400.

I do acknowledge my lack of math skills.

But Hank, as for my 1,084m game when I said I was on a WR pace, it was 100% true. I was definitely over the WR pace. I just had a bad conveyer on stage 21 and I lost.... well... close to 50k. Trust my maths on that, it's possible to lose 50k on a conveyer screen.

Let's make this term common jargon, mates!

I claim to be the originator of that one!   8)

First coined in Twitch chat about 2 years ago, not sure of the exact date (or whose stream, for that matter).

Awesome, Scott! I saw it a few months ago, and I've been propagating it ever since!  :)

Love it - Term coined by Allen Staal used to express extreme favor for something (especially when followed by an exclamation point).  ex) "Picked up a Rosetta Stone DVD for DK Language yesterday at a thrift store in Sydney.  Love it!"

Note:  Can also be used as an interrogative when the general consensus of favor might not be as clear.  Must be followed up with a question mark.  ex) "Ross is about to stream some Super Bagman!  Love it?"

Kappa - When typed inside of a Twitch/Justin.tv stream results in an image most notably used to denote trolling/sarcasm, however, can be used within the DK community, predominantly at the end of a sentence to represent a wide variety of things inclusive of the above as well as facepalm, self-depreciation, etc.   ex) so....it turns out I am the father after all.  Kappa

I made a separate 'Twitch Jargon' category on the bottom, so if anyone has more of these types of words/phrases that the DK community has adapted to its own use, please let me know!

What about Barrel Bukkake?  When you are in danger and Kong throws multiple barrels in a row.  All over YOUR FACE!

Vincent and I, by the power of the over-abundant Saiyan fusion power present in Phil's stream, just united our awesome word-making, acronym-creating abilities to combine and forge this immortal term:

Yolovit: YOLO! -love it?!

Invisible Death

A sudden restart on Level 1-1 or 1-2, where an unacceptable score is imminent.
