Super sounds a bit juvenile to me.

Well, super as a prefix is not only used to describe that something is awesome, but also as an indication that something belongs to a level above the rest (as it was in the original Latin definition). E.g. superintendent, superannuation, supernumerary, supervisor etc. All without hyphens or spaces.

If "super" sounds juvenile, we can make it sound a bit more adult by saying "collective" bonus :P

Hahahaha that would sound too "communist" or maybe even too "borg". I can't believe this thread is still going on :D

It's poll time! Let's vote and see which one most people prefer:

I agree with Qi.

I vote for Megabonus.

But megabonus is already a name for a collection of superbonuses (as in the European borders map). And it brings the same issues as super.

Never heard the megabonus phrase used on here.

Okay, but please tell me how exactly megabonus solves all the issues superbonus apparently brings up.

metabonus

I guess what I am saying is I didn't realize this was even an issue at all.

Just use super bonus as it's what Fizzer put in the Local Deployment wiki page.

Just because His Excellency created the game does not mean He uses perfect grammar. Besides, He didn't invent superbonuses, the people did.
And I thought we already agreed that super bonus is grammatically incorrect. It would be correct if it meant "awesome bonus" instead of "bonus of the upper level".

What about superbbonus?!GEDDIT!

Well, after over a week, I think the result from the poll is that everyone agrees that super bonus is wrong, and most prefer superbonus. So what's stopping us from changing the wiki? (for me it is that I don't know how to change a wiki title).

You'd best send your results to the O.E.D forthwith. I'm sure they will be besides themselves that this vexing question has been definitively put to bed.

ye can't regulate language!
