Tomestones, not Tombstones

[Merph]

I'm surprised at how wide-spread the confusion is on what the word for these tokens actually is.

...imagine someone lugging around 1300+ Tombstones and handing them to a vendor to buy a piece of armor.

[Odd]

People saying tombstones is so prevalent it had me thinking my game was bugged by calling them tomestones. Glad I was wrong about that.

"Tomestones" is not a real word, so it's hardly surprising that people would confuse this. In any case, I have no issues lugging around thousands of ores, logs, and even a few dead bodies. Not to mention 25 full suits of armor and weapons. A few extras tons of stone would hardly bother me.

[EvokerKeii]

I just call them Tomes.

+1 that made me laugh

I'm not gonna lie, I read it as tombstones all the time. :P

Thanks for creating a thread for this! .......... not

I thought it was tombstones. You mean it's not?

Crap, and I thought I had finally saved up enough tombstones to buy my first darklight item. Now I need to start collecting tomestones? What am I supposed to do with all of these tombstones?

I know its tomestones but I call them tombstones anyway. Tomestones just sounds stupid. Alternatively I just call them mythology tomes.

I say tombstone just because people keep correcting me about it. Stop trying to prove people wrong and they'll adjust.

Also, don't "tell" them they're wrong or they're making a mistake. Use some tact.

Me: Wooo 50 Tombstones (i say it just to piss off my one FC mate)
Him: Oni, it's TOMESTONE
Me: I'll be calling it tombstone forever now just to hear your voice get pissed off.
him: .@#%^)#&^@#)

Better:

Me: woo 50 tombstones
him: Yea, i love it when we get these tomestones
me thinking "did I make a spelling mistake, yup, should fix that"


tact!
