Heres a story.
I live in a small rural fishing town in alaska. in my high school of 200, there are about 30 gamers, all guys. There are pretty much two distinct groups of us: Picture it like an 80's movie: the "Cool gamers" and the real nerds. We do neat things and are really activie in our school, and very diverse. the other group are all nerd stereotypes who dont do anthing but game.
Well, a few months ago we had a halo showdown. 8v8 blood gulch CTF Pro with radar turned off. Two rooms, but you could still hear eachother. After a while, we started listining to what they were saying. They had divisions, and ranks. They had a team captin, who was in charge of assaulting, and he had a three man crew. They had a primary and a secondary base defense, and they had two guys whose jobs were to intercept us on the way to their base.
This is the part relevant to the thread.
Every time we got a hold of their flag, Base D#1 would yell "Scrub the base! Scrub the Base!" and they would jump in from the roof and kill us. They also had formations for attacking. I seriously think the funniest thing i have ever seen in my life was hearing "Operation Duck" yelled by their captain, and there it was, 6 players doing the Flying V from mighty ducks. I seriously laughed till i cried. They also had "Operation Clog" where they would use hogs to block teleports.
We started coming up with parodys of what they were doing. One of ours was "operation rain of fire". IN "ORF", everyone on our team threw all there grenades at there base. Another was double fisting. we would take two hogs and drive one in the front of their base entrance, the other in the back. these weren't meant to be effective, just funny.
The only other slang i can think of is calling melee ganking.
