Another problem with abbreviating names of games is when your typing is not very good, you misspell the abbreviation, and don't check for errors when sending the post. There's no way, or almost no way, that people would know what you meant if you sent a message dealing with SOF when you meant SOD, for example.

I have been so used to call the gma games like tank commander and shade of doom by their short hands, gtc, and sod I scarsly give it a thought. And on the list for tactical its always been called tb since I have joined and started testing it. In fact its odd to even call the games by their long names because I am so used to calling them shortened.
Forgetting that any new people would be wandering what things were.

I believe Sean was referring to Tactical Battle, http://audiogames.net/db.php?id=Tactical+Battle but I confess I only found that one by looking on audiogames.net, so I agree with Tom.

one abreviation that always amuses me is sod for shades of doom,(people have likely noticed I tend to just refer to it as Shades). This is because "sod" is a miner british (and especially North of England), swearword similar in profanity to Bugger. My mum will often say "oh sod!" if she spills her coffee or the like :D.
