there's nothing more satisfactory than winning after your opponent says gg. however, I feel it's acceptable to say gg before your opponent if it's like, he has a couple of buildings left which you are destroying, simply because I want to say gg before he leaves. if my opponent decides not to say gg at all, I will usually message him gg afterwards just to make him angry, as people who leave without saying gg tend to be somewhat annoyed.

and personally I regard "gg" more as a "thanks for playing" than a "good game".

id stand up and leave the room without quitting the game

I don't get annoyed or anything, it's just that I take pleasure in them wasting their time

ive never said GG before my opponent does and i get fairly annoyed when an opponent does to me. The last time someone said gg and told me to leave i purposefully prolonged the game as long as possible even though i was on the verge of giving up anyway

I think typing in "/w wgtbot win" when you think you're winning is much more BM than saying "good game".

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? :[

agreed... screw manner
u cant take crap on the internet then dont play. or use /squelch wth u think they made that command for? just for pros who dont wanna listen to noobs?

it depends entirely on the context of the situation.
i bet the people that voted very bm have done it many times against people who they thought were 'rude'
and if the other player is wasting your time when it is very very clearly over, then it is not bm. of course people should also realize that by saying gg first, you are not going to get him to quit
so ya it depends

if i win and opponent doesnt give up, he just wastes my time and he is BM, not me, so of course id say GG, and maybe even something more harsh, if he wont quit.

Usually, I admit defeat when all hope seems lost and I say "gg", but I usually don't say "gg" when my opponent says it first. I think it's rude =/

And I never say "gg" when im winning unless my opponent says "gg" first.

I think it's very BM. It's the loser's job to concede the game, period.

i hate that shit when they say gg. Especially midgame. Last time it happened he cannoned up my cliff and said "GG" like a fucking homo not realizing I had the island. I dropped all his expos (he figured he could just take the map)...dropped mad lurkers on his cliff and raped him....man that felt good.
