BRINK stands for....

Post » Fri May 20, 2011 10:24 pm

Figured I would re-post this that I originally posted on the Xbox Forums to share with you fine folk over here. :) So, what is Brink an acronym for?


Being
Revolutionary
Incites
Noob
Katharsis

***For those who don't know, Katharsis in psychoanolysis is the purging of emotional tensions, which in this case is relevant due to the mass amount of complaints regarding the game from those who either don't understand the gameplay, aren't able to worry about their K/D ratios, people focusing solely on poor reviews or were expecting another military shooter with killstreaks***

You spelt "Catharsis" wrong.

it's derived from the Greek word "Katharsis," but in English, it's written with a "C" not a "K."

Good try though.

Katharsis can be spelled with a K. Spelling is tricky like that. :) Besides, I wanted to fit it into the acronym and it was appropriate. :mohawk:

And who's using Wikipedia? I've known about the term since my college psych studies.

Fine spell it with a K, if you know the Greek alphabet then i'll give it to you. I don't imagine you do though.

If you actually studied psych, you'd know that the correct spelling of the ENGLISH word is with a "C" - spelling it with a "K" is not the correct psych term, because it's not the correct English spelling.

Not saying you're wrong to use a Greek word, just that your definition didn't include that the word you used isn't English.

Big
Running
Idiots
Need

True, but I wanted to fit the term into the acronym. :) It is what it is!

P.S. Nice acronym also! Anyone else got one?

6 year olds kick some serious ass at everything they do. i'm serious. but a 6 year old in a nascar race, andyou got a new winner. but a 6-year oldin a MMA octagon, and you got a new champion. put a6-year old in charge of a countries military, and you have a new super-power (or the only super-power if you put a 6-year old in charge of a current super-power)

the moral: 6-year olds are not to be underestimated.
