imo it's more of a trend amongst the newcomers (sc2 bandwagonists if I may) that use gg pregame in place of gl hf dd ka mg etc so I'm not annoyed at all and just say that you normally say gg after the game.

but the assholes that are winning and say gg before I say it, is just bm. i really feel like looking up their address and going up to them, knock on their door, and stab them in the face with a smashed champange bottle and scream YEA OK YOU WON SO WHAT YOU HAPPY NOW FUCKING COCKSUCKER FAGGOT BM MOTHERFUCKER ITS ASSHOLES LIKE YOU WHO MAKE THE GAME SHIT FUCKIN SHIT SUCKER then slit open his stomach and strangle him with his own intestines.

but I don't do that.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

Are you sure it's a bandwagon thing?

I swear I've seen it typed in pro game lobbies, and it was typed in the first game of SC I played just over a year ago.

I usually take gg in lobby to mean "hope this will be a good game" like others have said. It could easily cross over into bad manners though.

Originally only the koreans did it. I've been around a while, and NO ONE was saying "gg" pre-game in Europe back in the days. The custom was always "gl hf".

When I returned to SC a couple of years ago though, I noticed the foreign community had adopted saying "gg" before games. I reacted and thought it was odd at first but eventually got used to it. To the point where I now write "gg" myself...

It happens more to me in the first 10 seconds of the game than it does pre-game. I just reply with "wow, you give already? Ok, GG." And then I leave, victorious.

GG in preroom means "I wish you good luck"

But as for me, i prefer typing whole words, rather then short letters (ex "good luck; good game, man")

Um...

It's a Korean thing.

Nothing more nothing less.

I say GG in pregame if I'm playing with Koreans, GL HF if foreigners. It's completely manner.

If you get pissed when someone says gg to you pregame maybe you should go back to hello kitty island adventure.

I spam gg and gl, but I never put hf, cuz this is a competetive sport, your not here to have fun, your here to win.
