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.

I'm never surrendering. If I have one guy on one territory. Next turn I'm attacking with the three new guys. If I can turn it around I will.
That's why, while I am in favour of a surrender button, I wouldn't use it.
Unsportsmanlike? Maybe, but this is war people. I'm fighting until I'm completely eliminated.
Long ago here someone wrote:gg = go f*ck yourself
Good game. = Good game.

Me too.
If you're playing against me and I say gg, I am still going to try to win for couple of more turns. Sometimes I do mention it, like "gg", and next line "I'll still try a few more turns" in case people think like the OP.
Otherwise I often say, "gg, I give up".
When it's really clear there is no comeback possible anyway, then I only say "gg" and do give up. That's what I do in clan games most of the time.
In speed game especially, I often say gg when I am pissed after an incredible turn from my opponent, but I always try to turn it back.
