I usually think I have a pretty good vocabulary, had to look it up.

Question:
Did you have to look up the meaning of compendium for Aeteocles' thread?

Choices:
Yes
No

Luckily I can fall back on my 8 years of study of Latin to know that it means “a stadium where robot fights are held”.

Nope. I knew from my D&D 2nd edition Monsterous Compendium from when I was a kid.

It's an anti-diarrheal spice intended for the small intestines of gladiatorial robots.

So only me and two others hadn't heard that word before. Interesting, wonder why I've never heard it.

They're the 180 deg opposite of a compendium since they’re not a concise collection of knowledge. They’re an anti-compendium.
