Trivia
- The third rank of the title, Numchuck Skillz, appears to be a reference to Napoleon Dynamite. Nunchaku, Anglicized as Nunchucks and sometimes mispronounced as Numchucks, are martial arts weapons.
- Used in the fifth rank of the title, Über is a German word actually meaning "above/over" well known in the online gaming industry, commonly translated in the gamer community as "super" when attached to an attribute such as "skillz." Thus, this roughly translates into English as "Super Micro Skillz." "Micro," among elite groups of gamers, refers to the ability to do many things in a game very quickly (typically a real-time strategy (RTS) or a first-person shooter (FPS) title) in a short period of time using keyboard shortcuts. This could also be a reference to the online series "Pure Pwnage" in which the main character is famous for his Über Micro.
- In the sixth rank, the word Gosu is Korean. It is a common word in Asian languages and literally means "a high hand". The term is often used to describe a person with great skill in martial arts or in Go. It has now been adopted into English because it became highly used in multiplayer games due to Korea's influence in online gaming. Also, the publisher of Guild Wars, NCSoft, is based in Korea, which could be another influential factor.
- The titles for ranks 7 and 9 are leetspeak, and mean "Elite Skills" and "The Hackers' Skills", respectively.
- Iddqd comes from the code entered to enable degreelessness (god) mode in the popular video game DOOM.
