In one of the threads here someone just asked: what does GG mean ? I mean does it refer to Good Game ?

Or it might mean Good Grief ? ( as in Good Grief Charlie Brown are you ever bad, as in my case ).

Or then again it could be: Good God, do you even know how to play this game ?

Or Good Going, you had enough sense at last to resign !

I think it really means This Thread.

g is not especially alliterative [if that's not a word, too bad.]

Thanks for the posts.

Another question that might be asked is if another player says GG at the end of a game that I lost are they trying to needle me ? I mean if I played a good game why didn't I win ?

By the way Petrosianic, I like Grand Goof because that fits a lot of my games.  Smile

Pretty sure it's a Roman numeral representing the number 42. Saying 42 after a game was considered good sportsmanship. However, when chiseled into stone and thrown at the opponent, it was understood as sarcasm.

Thanks for the info MyCowsCanFly, sort of like throwing shoes at someone in the Middle East I guess.

cabadenwurt   next time just type an unknown abbreviation or acronymn into a search engine (followed by "definition" won't hurt) and you'll probably get the correct answer minus all of the trolling replies and incorrect answers, almost immediately

It means "Good Game" BTW

Hey cabby, now that you've taken a snide pill or two, can you pass the bottle over to Nimzo?

Thanks for the post NimzoRoy. This post was set up in relation to a question that someone asked in another thread. Sometimes one can get some very funny posts that are quite a chuckle.

Not as easy as I thought to come up with a movie "GG"...but I finally managed one:
