So I feel like a bit of a rant -- gl, gg, etc.

Postby Evil DIMwit on Mon May 07, 2007 9:52 pm

gl? gg? What?

Yes, I know what they mean -- "good luck" for the start of the game, and "good game" for the end. But why do people use these abbreviations on Conquer Club? It's not like some FPS where you have to greet the other players as quickly as possible. Conquer Club is practically built for slowness. Take your time, folks. Why not think up something more creative than just "good luck". How about, "May your pips number many and your cards be full"? Or "May your first Auto-Attack be a masculine Auto-Attack"? Or just "Hey, let's everyone win, folks?"

Which brings me to another point. When you say "gl all" -- do you really mean it? Is it possible for everyone in the same game to have good luck? Doesn't everyone's luck necessarily add up to zero? What, are we going to stick it to Neutral? So maybe "gl" isn't the best way to start a game. Maybe what you should really be wishing people is a good game, and then at the end, once everything's nice and over, wish them good luck on their subsequent endeavors. But unless you're half an hour late for something or your house is on fire, show a little sense and don't abbreviate it.

thx.

One word answer, then a detailed reason why:
No

Because at the END of a game, if it has been a good game, you say "gg, or good game".
If, at the start of the game, you wish to put "alright everyone, lets have a good game" that would be fine, but I hate when people put GG first, its disrespectful!

Also,
in all "sports" you wish your opponents good luck, its just a sign of respect, that you want the game to be a good one, and the fortunes not to be one sided.
Stick to the basics, they'll get you far!
Thanks,
John


Note: THANKS, not thx :)

So do I. Sincerely, I do.

[quote="in all "sports" you wish your opponents good luck, its just a sign of respect, that you want the game to be a good one, and the fortunes not to be one sided."]

Well, in that case I'd wish neutral luck. Unless you consider that to be good and thus consider neutral luck to be good luck because it leads to a good game. But that's a bit roundabout anyway because you can then define good luck as any luck which would lead to a good game which would then usually be neutral luck.

And GL getting him to see it any other way... or is that BL (bad luck)... no wait... must be NL (neutral luck)... actually that could be considered NO Luck... and for that matter, the GL might not be good luck at all, who's to say it isn't Goober Luck, or maybe it's an all out Great Luck! But omigosh, the L might not be for Luck at all, but actually for Anti-Luck, which is no luck at all... no, that isn't right... No luck at all is really Neutral Luck, and everybody knows that Neutral Luck is better than Bad Luck or even Moderatly Bad Luck... but who wants to type MBL for Moderatly Bad Luck right near the beginning of baseball season and have every think your salutation of Moderatly Bad Luck is actually some call to hail Major League Baseball... no this would be no good and worse that actually wishing a sincere Good Luck to your opponents. So this brings us back to GL for Good Luck... no wait... is that BL (bad luck)... no wait... must be NL (neutral luck)... actually that could be considered NO Luck... and for that matter, the GL might not be good luck at all, who's to say it isn't Goober Luck, or maybe it's an all out Great Luck!

I agree. That is genius. :D Of course, isn't it implying that the rest of your Auto-Attacks should not be masculine?

Not necessarily; it doesn't make any statement about the gender tendency of further Auto-Attacks either way. Of course, we must eventually have feminine Auto-Attacks to keep the Auto-Attack population alive and multiplying, but those don't necessarily have to be yours.

I was outraged and ashamed after hearing about some of Mr. Evil DIMwit's latest protests. So let's begin, quite properly, with a brief look at the historical development of the problem, of its attempted solutions, and of the eternal argument about it. The concepts underlying Mr. DIMwit's tendentious, pretentious litanies are like the Ptolemaic astronomy, which could not have been saved by positing more epicycles or eliminating some of the more glaring discrepancies. The fundamental idea -- that the heavens revolve around the Earth -- was wrong, just as Mr. DIMwit's idea that he has the authority to issue licenses for practicing racialism is wrong. Because of Mr. DIMwit's eagerness to participate in riots, I sometimes ask myself whether the struggle to express my views is worth all of the potential consequences. And I consistently answer by saying that he has been known to say that we can change the truth if we don't like it the way it is. That notion is so hectoring, I hardly know where to begin refuting it. Those who make it nearly impossible to disturb Mr. DIMwit's crotchety gravy train must be held accountable for their actions. With this central point cleared up, the rest of his arguments are rendered moot, as Mr. DIMwit is unwilling to stand up for what is true and right if there is no personal advantage to him in doing so. Period, finis, and Q.E.D.

Mr. DIMwit can't be trusted. I mean, think about it. Fortunately, most people understand that some people think I'm exaggerating when I say that it is not my goal to show a clear lack of respect not just for those brave souls who fought and died for what they believed in, but also for you, the readers of this statement, but the opposite. But I'm not exaggerating; if anything, I'm understating the situation.

Whether or not Mr. DIMwit should reduce social and cultural awareness to a dictated set of guidelines to follow ought to be a simple question, far beyond the realm of debate. However, he has convinced a lot of people that science is merely a tool invented by the current elite to maintain power. One must pause in admiration at this triumph of media manipulation. Were he alive today, Hideki Tojo would be his most trustworthy ally. I can see Tojo joining forces with Mr. DIMwit to help him marginalize me based on my gender, race, or religion. He occasionally writes letters accusing me and my friends of being tactless degenerates. These letters are typically couched in gutter language (which is doubtless the language in which he habitually thinks) and serve no purpose other than to convince me that he periodically puts up a facade of reform. However, underneath the pretty surface, it's always business as usual. Mr. DIMwit's apologists think that Mr. DIMwit holds a universal license that allows him to abet ethnic genocide, dictatorships, and what I call effete hatemongers. This is precisely the non-equation that Mr. DIMwit is trying to patch together. What he's missing, as usual, is that if you're interested in the finagling, double-dealing, chicanery, cheating, cajolery, cunning, rascality, and abject villainy by which he may quote me out of context before you know it, then you'll want to consider the following very carefully. You'll especially want to consider that Mr. DIMwit's vituperations are as predictable as sunrise. Whenever I strengthen our roots so we can weather the storms that threaten our foundation, his invariant response is to replace our natural soul with an artificial one. In a nutshell, Mr. Evil DIMwit is out of touch with reality.

This was a joke, I just wanted to practice my art of the use of rhetoric to obscure a lack of reasonable content in a public setting. I like Evil DIMwit... Really. Honest! :lol:

You son of a b*tch coleman. But I already seen your other rant so I didn't read this. Anyway I think you are missing the point. It is a sign of respect to say good luck and good game. I think you are just examining it too far.

I don't greet the other players that often, I take a somewhat different approach. Such as threatening to eat their dog, or letting them know they shall be smotin by the hand of Odin if they defile one of my territories. Or I will sing some awful obscure song in the hopes of distracting them long enough to take their continent. They get an unusual game with an odd form of entertainment, and I get their points. Isn't that better than a five second greeting?

Aye, females can be a lot more dangerous than males (just look at wicked). My guess is that they will eventually rule the world without us and just keep us as tools for sex and making children = 8-[ or maybe... :D

I agree 100%. I always say "Thanks for the game everyone!" or some such.
