Barblo, an amalgamation of the words Barb and Diablo, referencing the idea that the game is built entirely around the one and only Barbarian class, while completely neglecting all other classes.
Also you might want to add that hammer of the ancients is also sometimes abbreviated HOTA, often said as a single word, rather than saying each letter individually, and tends to be the build that barbs use most often when attempting to set records due to it's high single target damage. At least, that's how I've often heard it mentioned.
Btw, very nice work you have done here. I enjoyed reading and can't wait to see the list grow.

I've never even heard of the word portmanteau, lol. I don't mind if you change it. You are free to get rid of the quote if you would like, and do whatever you see you fit. It is your guide after all.
Holy crap. Does that mean that Blizzard... even... reads this forum? Anyways, gratz Jaetch/Cantor.
Btw, I think almost everyone mistakes username/rank when they come here for the first time. The username should be on top of the avatar, the rank below.
And... seriously, what more does it take to get this thread stickied? Front page of New York Times? Breaking news on CNN?

Oh, but they do! Could be some CMs' first time though.
And who said it's not stickied?
What the... either I'm blind and owe you an apology, or you just trolled me successfully ;-)
Anyways, while you're at it, could you sticky this thread please, too: http://www.diablofans.com/topic/79800-guide-comprehensive-cmww-guide/ - we're referring to that about 5 times a day in the wizard forum. It seems like no mod is reading the wizard forum. Once you handled my request (deny or accept) you may delete this obviously offtopic blurb here, I'm just hijacking the thread ;-)

We had some other plans for the class forums but it looks like they might get a slight delay anyway. Well, enough off-topic, Jaetch has a lot of work to do updating the dictionary.

The spec is based on Whirlwind - "Hurricane" and Sprint - "Run Like the Wind".

Nice catch! I actually didn't even realize I did that.
Got it.

I'd use "portmanteau," too, but I quoted him directly to credit the explanation.
