You're the Gimp when left with no front to the enemy team, forcing you to fort your teammate on deploy.
Rickyb - suggestions?
limey lyons - just don't take out libya and gimp me.
Rickyb - sorry limey... Orange has a big fat 8 armies right in my face.
limey lyons - great, i've been gimped, who wants my armies?

That's happened to me before, but I've never called it being gimped.

I'm not really sure what you're talking about here, but sounds a bit like, you know, the foundation of team-play

It's just a phrase we use. Sometimes, particularly on smaller maps, good strategy dictates that a team member gets left behind the lines and has to play the game out from the stands, forting his team members. He's the gimp.
