GG

CRIMINAL SCUM!
It bugs me that these are far and few between. A match that is both competitive, and challenging, without over oppressive dickery or lopsided strength of either side. It's no fun to have no chance at all to win, or have certain victory from the beginning.

  • What is GG? A character from some Code Geass fanfic?
  • a little muffled
    "Good game."

    It is a rather meaningless phrase since it's sort of courtesy to say it at the end of every game, but whatevs.
  • Oh. I wouldn't know. I hate PvP..... I figure it people want to fight me the least they could do is do it in person.
  • I don't say GG at the end of crappy games. If the game sucked and we won or lost because someone else dropped I'll just say BG. The game sucked.

  • a little muffled
    I'll say it at the end of crappy games just because it feels rude not to. The exception would be if it's my opponent's fault that the game sucked, rather than bad luck or whatever.
  • I don't even rightly know what sorta games you're talking about here.
    I did play Soul Calibur IV online for a bit a while back... and folks were glad that I wasn't just a lamearse spamwhore with Kilik... i.e. that I could use his full moveset properly...    But I still didn't like playing it against other people as it took away the certainty that mastery would ensure victory.

    I say gg at the end of every game, because it's polite.

    @SotiCoto: I'm mostly talking about Magic: the Gathering; I rarely play multiplayer video games online.

    @Forzare: Yeah, exactly. The only time I won't say it is if I don't feel like being polite, because my opponent is acting like an asshole.

    Yeah, if the other guy has been ranting and calling me a fag all game, I'm not gonna say it, but otherwise, I try to be a good sport.
  • M:tG? ... I didn't even consider for an instant that this would be out of the VG medium.  CCGs are just alien to me. Almost as bad as my old Warhammer 40,000 habit... but without all the fun painting.
  • If it's a bad game. It's a bad game. What's the point in saying GG if you don't really mean it? It just becomes some meaningless phrase you say to keep face.

    Well, that's how I feel.

    It's just polite.  Like saying "Thank you" when someone does you a favor.
  • Perhaps a "no hard feelings" would suffice instead?
  • Yeah, exactly. The only time I won't say it is if I don't feel like being polite, because my opponent is acting like an asshole.

    YGO is filled with ragequitting and complaining. It's difficult to have a good competitive game if you are playing against a underdog player or somebody who fucking screams because their opponent is using money cards to steamroll their retarded WalMart structure decks.

    Casuals and Metagamers will never get along, since Casuals spend too much time trying to make overcomplicated and stupid decks "pro", and Metagamers are too busy running the same shit as the last person who won the tourneys and worrying about "no skill lucksack bullshit cards" stealing the win that "they deserve".

    It's nice to go and say "I want to run Harpies today" and not feel the pressure of the other person threatening to smash the table when you happen to win or hear their "Harpies are such garbage" speeches while they lick their Dark Magician Girl playmats and kiss their secret rare cards they bought off of eBay.
