Someone on another thread had the idea to use V (for victory)or ..._ (morse code for V) instead of bump or bttt. I thought it was a great idea.

That is a wonderful idea! Thanks for explaining. I knew that ...- was V in morse code, and that in WWII it was used as a byword for Victory. I had seen it here on the thread, but did not realize that folks were using it for bumps.

Another little piece of info about the "...- = V= Victory" :
In WWII the 5th Beethoven Symphony became known as the Victory Symphony because the opening rhythmical figure which is used throughout, is ...- !

So.....I HIGHLY recommend playing the Beethoven 5th Symphony as a symbol of VICTORY!! There is also something about it that makes you feel wonderful after you hear it. If you are not friends with this great masterpiece of music, please consider getting acquainted with it!
