Yes, there's probably a high degree of overlap between some of the categories.

Choosing not to play means that the Djinni will kill the 10% of the world most like you. Djinn are a vicious fuckers - that's why we stuff their asses into wee bottles.

Decimation, as I understood it, was the killing of 1 in 10. It's only recently that people think that decimation means to wipe out a population. It's kind of sad, since the hint is in the word itself.

Yup, that's it, as far as I know. And he did use it properly (since he's referring to killing 10%)...

I'm pretty anal about word usage. To this day, I go trolling around years-old posts of mine to fix spelling errors. It's the homonyms that fuck me up the most.

Ah, the curse of literacy!

I thought it meant willing to mate with a tenth of the population.

Remind me not to use the Coffee-Mate at your house. I don't need my drink whitened that much.
