According to the manual, the name onos comes from oh no's. But what do you call two of those guys then? onoss onoses or??

    Instead of murder I think a massacre of onos would be a better term.

    Personally what I always say when I'm alone trying to build something my teammates died protecting and I see an Ohno is OH***T! so to me they're OHS***'s. *shrug* but I'm allowed to say stuff like that, I don't live at home anymore.

    assuming this is a serious question....its prob like deer or moose, the plural is preceded by a number or a "herd" or "flock".

    like, "oh crap we lose here comes [a bunch, 3, a few, a couple, a bloodthirsty homicidal horde] of Onos."

    "Onos" is both the singular and the plural. And personally, I think a large number of Onos should be called a flock, just because that's really funny. (:

    They need a big long Scythe with an extremely sharp blade to hit Onos's <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    So the conclusion is that the correct term would be xxx onos?

    And yes, it was serious. I posted it when i got sick of trying to write it and lack the proper word.
