What do you call ingame currency?
 

A number of names have been thrown around over the last decade for Graal's currency, both in scripting and in conversation. I am curious, which name do you like to use for the ingame currency?
I'm going to be working on the gralat/gelat/rupee economy starting this week, starting with testing, and this question came into my head when looking at all the different documented names.

If it isn't listed in the poll, post what you call it I guess.

Rupees D:

on Era i think most if not everyone uses american currency. Like usually when someone sells a gun they will say $10,000 instead of 10,000g or actually in this case most would use 10k.

rupees

I think I call them grelats, but I know I've used the two other terms before.

Rupees. Gelats seemed really odd, almost like they were trying too hard not to call them rupees. Then they changed them to gralats, which made no sense why they'd change them again. Now they also use them as a global currency, and that's just even more confusing.

Rupees are exactly what they are, but are scared to call them.

gelats and monies

Graalats, but apparently that isn't an option so Gralats.

They're Gralats.

If you could look "Gralat" up in a Thesaurus, the other option would be "Gelat".

Kinda like cash, money, bread, dollars, currency, cake, ameros.

I don't like calling them rupees, and have never seen anyone do so. I liked the Gralat graphic that would appear on Graal2001, although it made less sense than anything.

gralat

rupees

lol

Rupee, but mainly because of the scripting side of things referring to the currency control variable being called 'player.rupees'. I think other names, such as 'Gralat' itself, was just coined to further avoid the fact that Zelda has "Rupee" as well, but they'll always be a rupee to me.

bones clams bills cash-money

Probably because they sound the same rofl.


Gralats is what I say.

anything works

bread coin dough gravy


there's a lot of words for money that are foods, how odd

I call them gralat but when I'm scripting I use rupees.

;( Nobody wants to point out that economies suck?

i call them gralats btw

gralats ftw

I call it gelats or gralats either one is fine with me.

Gelat THE BEST A MAN CAN GET!!

I used to call them rupees because that's what they were in Zelda,
but now I call them gralats.

Gelat feels a bit odd for me.

How is coin a food word?

i already explained this to you on msn but i never said that all of those words were food words, just that there exist a lot of them

sounds like you ate one too many pennies.

bringin home the BACON.

rupees.

Also body parts:

Bones

What other body part names are used?

bones is a reference to primitive cultures that actually used bits of bones as a trading medium

No. Some people use it to reference to real time money.

And I don't know any other body parts that refer to money :(.h
