To GG or not to GG? That is the question.
Arturo Sanchez:
GG is pretty much my way of saying game over.
I guess game gone? Hence I only say it before or during a match when it has reached a conclusive point.
gg in many rts circles (esports star craft notably) is actually just a means of surrendering a match as it has reached the point where a player loses the chance/ability to win.
ShadedExalt:
If it was a truly BAD game, I won't say "gg". If it's average/good, I'll say GG.
So simple, it seems like magic!

Or perhaps this is your mind perceiving this in such a negative manner through psychological assumptions?
GG stands for Good Game, any normal person who wants to saying something different, will say something different. If someone writes GG and you read something different, it is your perception, not their meaning.
Mean Machine:
I rarely say gg in pub match and more often in competitive, but only if I mean it. I don't think lying to your opponents is better sporting than tossing ggs all over the place.

I agree 100% that in some games, specifically starcraft, it is actually considered extremely rude not to gg at the end of a game, regardless of how well played or enjoyable it was, but personally I don't want GOIO to turn into one of those games where a gg is necessary. Imo it should hold some degree of meaning, not just a way of saying 'game over'
