Any time I've ever said, "gg", I've quit trying to win. It's like waving the white flag and inviting the other guy to "run the road" in route 66, or get the oasis, or whatever, and that I won't keep fighting as they quickly win the game w/out any more battles.
However, I was in a recent game where my opponent said, "gg" and then just started stacking on one of his two 1s ieft (in a poly game). So, after the "gg" by him, I went after him instead of defending my bonuses or playing strategic. However, he then roared back, took my bonuses and was positioned to win. It wasn't surprising that he could do this, as I had my guard down.
Seemed somewhat like a dick move. After he said, "gg" he should no longer try to win. That's always how I've played and how I've seen others play.
But, am I reading the typing of "gg" wrong? Do I just play w/ circles and clans that have adopted this but isn't widely done in the wilds of CC?
I gotta know.
