Quoted from absocountry2:LEAVE for the LE
Is that a statement on your view of LE's ? 
Feelings on LE's aside, I'd say TAVLE for the LE...

Quoted from robin:Should the outcome of this poll be implemented into the Pinside abbreviations list?
I vote for TAV.
Sure, put it in the list. One suggestion Robin, why not have an updated list that is semi-official rather than just a sticky of a pinside thread? You could have a pinned list that the mods could modify based on pinsiders suggestions so it would be a more official list that would be open for changes as needed.
There are some abbreviations in the sticky thread that I do not think are correct such as JCA and RS which should be something else such as AVATAR and TRS (for Stern's The Rolling Stones).
Quoted from Blakesell:I like the idea of T&A, but it's just one word, I realize it's very hard to spell such a long word out, so.. just: A.
T&A would be good for the Scarlett Johansson LE version 
Quoted from mrSATURN2012:The Avengers needs to be abbreviated? Wow, that took me a whole second to type.
Sheesh...
It is a pinball thing. Pinheads are a lazy bunch.

Yep
I actually think I could live with a true limited version and regular but any more than that and it gets crazy. It seems to be working for Stern but it is hard to know what machine people are actually talking about at times.

Quoted from pinballslave:I don't... but then I'm dim...
AVG is a commonly used abbreviation for the word "average" so the use of the abbreviation for The Avengers could be looked at as a mild insult to the pin.

If the shoe fits.... I hope it is awesome though

TA = Torpedo Alley
Yay for Torpedo Alley!
Avengers is likely going to be "AVG". There is no "The" in the Stern game title at all.

Yes there is a "The" before Avengers:

Good call, kinda like BIBLE. It is offensive to some and it is not really correct. Should be ACDCBIB. BIB is an LE so why have them together.
TAV does seem to work well.

Thanks for the explanation... I had a feeling it might be this... for some reason I use AVE for the abbreviation of average though... Not sure if that's just me or an 'across the pond' difference...
