	;WMD: A playful abbreviation for "Whiteboard of Mystery and Distrust". Originates from games in which hand-held whiteboards are used to pass secret notes from [[GM]] to player, or from player to player. This inevitably causes other players to want to know what is going on behind their backs. Sometimes the dissent and suspicion is the precise intent of passing the note, while at other times it is done to preserve the immersion factor of a game (e.g. by passing a whiteboard to the GM that says, "I cast true resurrection" the player is free to describe the event without using terms that apply only to game mechanics).		;WMD: A playful abbreviation for "Whiteboard of Mystery and Distrust".

The whiff factor varies between game systems; in games where it is too high, the ability for [[player]]s to play in the intended style may be disrupted by the need to continuously allow for random failure. For example, if the players are planning out a commando raid on any enemy installation, they are required to plan for the failure of every action involved, even the most trivial ones.		;Whiff factor: The continuous possibility of random failure created by a [[game system]].
