FTW
"For the win"; indicates the end of the game, it is often used to reference the object responsible for victory. A noun followed by "ftw" indicates that the noun is good, the source of victory. For example: "Zerg rushing ftw". In recent years FTW has moved on to represent anything good or positive, with 'win' becoming a more general form of success, for instance "Editing Wikipedia FTW!". Sometimes shown as "4tw". Sometimes "For the world" (spread the idea of something). Might be expanded as 'For Teh Win' to stress the none-too-serious nature of the phrase. Also means "FUCK THE WHAT!" as an opposite of WTF, positive. Also means "Fuck the World".
