A
"Ahh" - The most common noise that emanates from the truly clueless of place. Usually after they've had someone explain the rules to them for the fortieth time.
B
Bullshit - The name for any match played in which you don't win.
Bollocks - See above...
Bastard - See further above...
C
Carlsberg - Drink of choice for the less discerning Yahtzee player.
Champion - A person that has absolutely no place winning a Competition. Unless it's you.
Croaker - A player that is near death but refuses to die before the competition is over.
Cyunt - A less offensive version of the much more offensive word. Reserved for all those that roll a Yahtzee.
D
Delay - Something you can expect if you aren't playing by yourself. Trust me.
Dump - When you have to score a zero... or a big poo...
F
Failure - An irrelevant term in Yahtzee. There are those that are twats for constantly winning... and everyone else (I am the "everyone else"). This is why Failure does not feature in our vernacular. It might do soon, depending on my achievements.
Four Of A Kind - Better than a Three Of A Kind.
"F**k off!" - A rather obvious expression of disappointment/frustration common in almost all sports. But only in Yahtzee will you see this term used in conjunction with a flailing of the limbs and and an index finger stuck up (middle finger style) shaking furiously at the dice; as if the person that rolled them didn't really. Yahtzee can do things to people...
Full House - A roll in Yahtzee that is not that hard to get, unless you're nearly seventy years old. Then it's impossible. Apparently.
G
Gloat - Something you would expect a player to do when they have two Championship badges plus a trophy that means sod all! (The trophy that is, the badges are more important than a Knighthood!)
Grunt - More the noise than the word. Usually made when a game isn't going a player's way. Pay attention to these, they could prove helpful.
I
Inadequate - That feeling you get whenever you don't take first place... ever!
Irate - An emotion that occurs often. Usually after the game if you've just lost, or during if the match is performing like an impotent fella in a brothel.
N
Neil - The name ascribed to a player who is still woefully uneducated in the rules of Yahtzee, despite playing the game for years.
L
Large Straight - No, not a tall heterosexual. A consecutive number (eg. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) that is a pain in the arse to fet as soon as you need it.
League - The Premier competition of the BHO. Played by many, won by few... including me.
P
Plopper - A player that just can't seem to roll the flipping dice correctly. So what do they do? Plop them onto the dice board and expect it to count as a fair roll. Shame on you!
R
Rash - Irritating and itchy skin condition. Often presents during intense Yahtzee exchanges, usually around the nether regions and back crack.
Religion - Yahtzee.
S
Schedule - A concept that even some of the most competitive players that join us can't grasp. They are the reason most Competitions take at least three lightyears to complete.
T
Three Of A Kind - Worse than a Four Of A Kind.
"Today!" - Most likely used when the player before you takes about 35 minutes rolling because they're too busy prattling on about absolute nonsense.
Y
Yahtzee - A roll in Yahtzee that requires no skill, no strategy or technique. Unless you get it yourself. Then it's amazing.
