When Del Rey put together The Splendid Magic of Penny Arcade: The 11 ½ Anniversary Edition, we asked fans for questions they were dying to ask Penny Arcade creators Mike and Jerry.

Here's your chance to answer Jerry's question--the language question, not A/S/L!--and be part of Del Rey's Splendid Magic of Penny Arcade week (Feb 22-26) on Suvudu.com. Send an e-mail to delrey@randomhouse.com with the subject heading "Penny Arcade Glossary," and include the term(s), the strip that it came from if you can remember it, and (this is optional, but awesome) an example of how you've used it in real life (or in your MMORPG of choice, same difference).

During Splendid Magic of Penny Arcade Week we'll reveal some of our favorite Penny Arcade words and phrases each day, ending with the debut of a "Penny Arcade glossary" that Friday. Don't forget that you can read all of Mike and Jerry's fan Q&A when The Splendid Magic of Penny Arcade: The 11 ½ Anniversary Edition, goes on sale February 23!
