Thanks for posting this. It gets a bit confusing at times. One other that I have seen and started using is IRL, for in real life. Ex. I have never played Gorgar IRL, but I love it on TPA. I guess you could add TPA and FS as well. Thanks again, well done.

That's funny about BarbWire and BayWatch. Abbreviations aren't the only two things they share.
