With all the discussion regarding the genre, I think adding 'roguelike' to the dictionary would be useful.

Shouldn't that be 'rogue-like'?  Or maybe 'rouge-like'.

People seem to prefer it without the hyphen.

I love using hyphens.  It makes me look more smarter.

That doesn't mean it's correct.  (Thus my rouge comment.)

Hyphens often get dropped after the hyphenated word because common usage, as in a word in it of itself rather than a combination of two words. E.g. "Email" is now one word instead of "E-mail" like it used to be.

Unstickying, if anyone needs to add something, they know how to search. Also, lots of stickies (i'm a sticky whore).
