When the game is not clearly over, it's BM. I've lost a one battle, and my opponent GG's me. I fight back for about 10 minutes, but it wasn't over by a long shot.

what if they say gg as the game looks like it's over but you make a major comeback and whoop him?

and manner should just be whether or not a person is a dick.

i usually say GG when i have a mass of hydras in a p's base and he hasnt left yet, or something similar
i think its bm when people stay even after they have absolutely no chance to win, its almost a slap in the face because they think i suck enough that they could still win...

Well, I kinda agree with that too. It's bm both ways...there is absolutely no need to stay in a game when you've clearly lost. Still, I don't say 'gg' first if I'm winning but I can understand if some people get frustrated when they have 4 running bases and are killing their enemy's last... and the opponent STILL just sits there letting you take down every single building. So I think it depends on each game and can't really be generalized as bm or whatnot by default.

It's pretty much against sportsmanship, however I do think there should be another universal expression/abbreviation to end the game. Something like "thanks for the game" (tfg?). Typing "good game", when you lost a 5 minute game due to some cheesy strat is just plain wrong.

Someone told me I should quit sc, and have told me gg before it's over.
I say it's bm and practice always makes perfect.

unless your enemy did something that bm first, such as blatantly hacking or talkin lots of shit, i think its very bm to say gg as the winner.

i also think its sort of rude for the loser to not say "gg" and just leave the game. thats not too important though because it feels good to know that theyre so pissed they cant even say "gg".

very bad manner, but of course its also very bad manner to hide buildings when you're out of resources/expo and u have no units left.

Should have added an option of "Who cares"

I think the whole idea of "bad manner" is ridiculous, and getting mad because someone says GG before you do..I mean, seriously..grow up? :[


i really do not agree, i don't think it's because you are on the internet that everyone should be allowed to shit on everyone else + this is maybe only a game but while you're chatting u are still talking to a human being even through the internet. And i think growing up is learning to respect people even when you are 10000000 miles away and you do not risk anything, you just respect ppl coz u think it's right.

And i could add that to the eyes of many, life can be considered as a game.

Usually saying GG for your opponent is bm, but some people just need that GG throw in theire face.

Generally bad manner. However, I have played games where my opponent has done something lame like lift off his last starport or factory, after all his other structures have been destroyed, and moved it to the corner just to prolong the game and irritate me. Under those circumstances I think it is fair to rub it in his face a little with an early gg.
We are vigilant.

I find it very BM, but the best feeling is when they say "GG newb" and you end up winning the game.

Well I think that saying "gg" (before your opponent have something like 3scv +5marines and tones of buildings) it's bm but seriously why you people just don't say anything and just kill it. Look at this point, what do you think will happen if on the starleague or any other tourney like that, winning opponent say "gg" before the enemy that will probably lose, what do you think, if he become a bm? Well probably ... + I am wondering what people watching this will say . -..-
