the written/typed acronym is fine. but when people say it out loud ("pub-gee"), especially in front of others, the cringe hits hard. like, i feel embarrassed for them, ok?

just call it battlegrounds ffs...

What exactly makes it cringe? It's the shortest way to say it. Everyone I play with including myself calls it that. 2 syllables.

Well no wonder you hate it. That's an absurd pronunciation. There's no hyphen, meaning the G is part of the word and it should be pronounced "pub-guh." Duh.

Maybe people will start just saying the individual letters instead of reading it as a word.

Why not just call it "pub?" Make the G silent. I think that flows nicely.

"Whatcha doing tonight? Not a lot, gonna play some pub, what about you? Yeah I'll play some pub if you wanna get on later"

Right?

Is this going to be one of those times when you pretend not to have a plan until the last moment? And then turn out to really not have one?

I think we can all agree that the game has a horrible name no matter if you shorten it or not.
