although it's not used much anymore that i've seen, the term uru prime refers to uru:ages beyond myst, the original single player game without any add on packs.

You, people are keeping me so busy.... :lol:

When there is a divergence of opinion, I am including, in the list, both versions to prevent a big war in the city. :lol:

Great Zero Cathedral? I beg your pardon, but I never heard any reference to a cathedral in the context of the Great Zero.

The name has been used by some Cyantists to refer to the Calibration center. It's not the official D'ni name for the place, but it's in use all the same.

Reactivating this old thread because back in January, we were not permitted to edit the first post anymore.
(due to forum rules at that time)

All suggestions are welcome again. And please add a definition to the abbrevations submitted.
I am not the expert around here... :lol:

MM - Marker Mission.

Haven't seen this one since, UU, but it's really helpful if you're doing one..."Can't talk. MM." You'd lose a lot of time typing the whole thing out. :wink:

Bevin-The hood styled after the original Bevin hood (only neighborhood available right now)

(somebody correct me if I'm wrong about this post as I'm not entirely sure this is right)

@ TLink's : we will wait for some feedback... :wink:

@ to Anybody: I would like a good definition related to Uru Live re: the word " instance".

Instance: One of a set of identical (or nearly identical) Age areas. Players in different instances will not see or hear each other; changes made in one instance will not affect any other instances. (Example: everyone begins the game in a different instance of Relto.)

Is that concise and clear enough?

Hi Marein,

Being one of the users who hate abbreviations, you can bet I have added your first two
but I would like to know what is the meaning of "MYSTlore" and what it does eat, in winter times....
