I've seen many choices, but I like BBB (Big Beige Book), the best

The main rulebook can still be summised as "BRB" - Big Rule Book. It will likely stay the same.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

I don't like BOB, it just has nothing to do with the book itself, I personaly think 3B, tripB, or the BBB is the best, it is actually 6th edition specific, unlike BOB, which could be used for any edition. Also, BOB won't be compatible with the miniature books.

BOB = Big 'ole Book = full sized rulebook
bob = Baby 'ole Book = small sized rulebook
Well you get the drift, does it matter to call the new AOBR BOB something different? Maybe SBOB for starter big ole book.
