My page was originally using the term 'DoP'
Later it was edited into 'the dance of pain'
Now it is edited back to 'DoP'
We have to discuss which is better. For me, I think DoP is better to keep it short.

yeah

Which should be used for Dennis' DvA? Strafe kick or Shrafe?
I cannot find Shrafe in my dictionary, so I used strafe kick instead (where strafe means attacking many times very quickly)
As it is originally named Shrafe (I believe we can find it is the readme file), it can be controversial too to change it to Strafe Kick.
Strafe is, however, used in Davis' DvA (Strafe Punch).

I changed it to Shrafe because that's in the readme, but you're right, that's probably another of Marti and Starski's oddly endearing English mistakes. Strafe it is.

Projectiles switching teams.
In the Heavy Objects page, the term 'Deflection' was originally used. However, 'Conversion' is used in the current edited version. Where as rebound should clearly be used when you hit a projectile and causes it to reverse in both direction and teams, we may (or may not) need to use another term for heavy objects only being switched teams, but does not change in direction. In my own opinion, rebound is still appropriate here, or we can use the term 'conversion' if the direction does not change.

whatever

AOE attacks.
We clearly need a term for AOE attacks! But, I don't think AOE is a good term because it stands for Area of Effect, so.... 'Area of Effect attacks'?
Well, it's difficult for me to find any other term either though. If you have a better idea than AoE please let us know so we can discuss it .
*As well as non-AoE attacks, we also need a term for this.

I've been saying (to myself) "multi-hit" and "single-hit". "AOE attack" isn't perfect because it implies that the attack actually has a substantial AOE, which most things in LF2 do not.

I don't know the term for an attack which can hit a person who is falling. For example, a fireball can do that, but an iceball cannot. I've been saying (mostly to myself) "catch", but "catch" is sometimes used interchangeably with "grab".
