Drop, Drop Catch, Catch, Snap, Delete

[fischermx]

Which of these terms do you use the most to refer to the act of backorder near to expire domains through places like pool, snapnames, etc?

Drop, Drop Catch, Catch, Snap, Deleted? Anything else?

 

[Onward]

I actually use "backorder"...once I get the name I say "snapped"

Can you rephrase your question?

 

[fischermx]

Let me clarify, I ask when you refer to it in the sense of a market or a "game", not in the sense of placing the backorder. So, refer to it as a noun, not as a verb.

 

[jazzpetals]

snap for me

 

[Devil Dog]

'overpaying' for me.

 

[tekz999]

Backorder.

 

[INVIGOR]

backorder is the formal term, snap is the lingo...

 

[GAMEFINEST]

"back it up" = backorder

a backorder
backordering (noun)

What I do is to backorder a name.

The game/activity could also happily be called "drop catching"

I think "snapping" a name used to be a term for backordering a name, as the only company that seemed to do this for you was Snapnames.com. I think it then got used "sloppily" to mean "to backorder".
