I can't recall who first said the term to me but, i remember it always being "Tripple-A".

Which is why i would never put "i got an AAA" Because "AAA" starts with a T

I say "ah ah ah"

It doesn't flow well in conversation.

"I gotta ah ah ah!"
"Whoa dude don't be facin' me if you gotta piss"

Me too!

It's weird, but I'm brazillian and I say "Ah-Ah-Ah". It sounds cooler than triple A or "ay-ay-ay"

I have never found the need to use the word AAA in vocalized conversation.

Good thing his example requires absolutely no physical pronunciation

Either way, it's the same as people saying AN or A FMO/FGO
Personally I don't see why anyone would want to say A-A-A or FOR MASTERS/GURUS ONLY, when the respective alternatives are so much easier and flow so much better :/

Well, that's the thing; when I look at it I don't try to pronounce it in my head, I just read it as a coherent symbol.

I know some players who call A, AA, AAA, AAAA, and AAAAA "aces"...and it pisses me off to no end.

"Hey I just tri-aced Life Light"
"I have a quad ace on VB"

Triple-A was always and is the only legitimate way to say it. A-A-A or ah-ah-ah sound really dumb.

Well I don't actually say "AAA" aloud because I don't have anyone to talk to about FFR... but I read it in my head as "A A A."

But I also read "lol" in my head as if it were a word, "loll."

You mean 'lawl'?

That's how I say it, and that's how just about everyone on the internet says it too.
