Sports-roleplayers invented their own slang and use it in #[[Sport]] in the [[Internet Relay Chat]] and several of their threads in the forums:

+
'''System Karela''': a tactic known as all-out-defense, Catenaccio or (especially by fans from [[Cockbill Street]]) "the most boring tactic ever". The name was invented by [[Rejistania]]n newspapers since [[H1SR]] team Karela Lines regularily uses it.
+
 
+
'''System Jesejil''': a 4-5-1 tactic, often in combination with pressing, named after the city Jesejil kali in nanti ligat. The rejistani U21 tends to use it since years.
+
 
+
'''System Imdila''': Hexen Imdila, the first coach of the rejistani national team, often used a 4-4-2 tactic. In the "propaganda war" with co-coach Ha~e Hangila, the term System Imdila for this tactic was used.
+
 
+
'''System Hangila''': "propaganda war", the second. Ha~e Hangila had to hear the term System Hangila for his more attacking 3-4-3 formation. Both expressions lost their negative conotation entirely and are used neutrally.
+
+
'''System Takil''': A rejistani expression for All-Out-Attack (2-3-5). It's name derives from the fact that coach Laxtu Takil used it in the World Cup qualifiers.
+
 
+
===Somehow related to sports roleplaying===

'''TIY''': Totally Inflated Yen, this currency loses value so rapidly that no one writes the prices of products at all. Often used for bribes, especially aimed at [[Margaret]] or the host nations, since it is easy to get trillions of them.
+
 
+
'''WTSH?''': What the Slani hell?
