When the multiplayer game ended, do you say/type GG even if it's not?

No, I don't, I write gg when I win and when we lose and it actually has been a good game, not when the game was just awful.

I normally always say gg, unless the entire other team are complete jerks the entire time or it's such a stomp because 2 people rage quit, etc. I'll normally say "sorry about the afk/leaver/etc. :(" I never type bg though. It sort of bugs me when people do (though I obviously don't comment on it), just makes the whole experience more negative. If it was that bad of a game I just don't say anything at all and try to be positive for the next game.

For me there's "gg" as sign of manners of the end of the game, and "wp" to compliment a good performance.

No, if it was a close match or had fun then yes.

More often than not, I see people use "GG" in situations where it doesn't even make sense... like situations that are completely unrelated to the ending of a game/match. A good example of this, is how people say "GG" to congratulate someone, like for winning something (like a raffle), obtaining a nice item in a game, or even when they level up. Yet another saying/acronym that is overused to the point that it's no longer used properly. Anyway, to answer you question... no, because I never say "GG", not even when I did play PvP.

gg only when the game was not onesided and was enjoyable/challenging.

When I was a kid playing baseball and soccer, after every game we would line up and give high-fives to the other team and say "Good game" over and over and over :P

Ugh, I always hated that, especially when we lost. =P

Though, with how things are these days, it's probably worse. I wouldn't be surprised if everybody is forced to hold hands and frolic through the field and sing songs together.

It was the 1980's and I was 10 years old, but we did receive participation trophies and a pizza party at the end of the season despite losing nearly every game :P

Haha, I know how that feels..

The first team I was on was a great. We did really well and came in second overall. The next year, though, ugh.. We had two separate teams, and I was supposed to be on the good team, but at the last moment basically, at the start of the season, I was moved over to the bad team.. I think we only won a couple of games, ha. I still have my participation trophy! =P

Edit

Oohh, I just remembered why I quit playing Baseball, too.. I found out that I was supposed to be on the same team the following year, so I basically just thought screw that and gave it up. Didn't want to go through that again, haha. I never played again after that, except for one game on my younger brothers team. I don't remember what happened, but for some reason they wound up being a player short at the very start and were going to have to forfeit, but my dad had the idea of passing me off as two years younger and ended up getting me on the team for the day. I think we lost that..

Similar story here, I suffered a knee injury and couldn't play anymore, I could barely walk, but it was summer and a lot of kids were on vacation, so the team needed 1 more player or else they'd have to forfeit. So I played the game despite being unable to move... It was really pitiful. And, for some reason, like an idiot, I hit the ball and had to try to run to first base. It was ridiculous. :P

Oh jeeze, that just sounds like an awful time, lol. Better than an instant loss for the team, I suppose. At least, that's the way the coach would look at it. =P

I never had any bad injuries myself, thankfully. I never even wore my cup, haha. Man.. how lucky was I?

Nope, I never do. I rarely say anything at all during or after a match on any game. When I do say something, I actually put some thought and effort into it.

I feel that If all someone is going to say is "gg" or similar, they might as well not have said anything in the first place. I just find it to be pointless and a bit annoying, even, especially when it's used in a toxic manner (which is how such things are used in most cases).

It's a lot like leaving generic thanks comments on every single Steamgifts giveaway that you enter. It serves no purpose, nor is it meaningful in any way.

I rarely play multiplayer and especially not competitive, but if I am involved in some kind of contest I'd generally try to say something nice to a defeated 'foe' if they didn't go out of their way to be arseholes

I don't know why but big amount of people in Trackmania are saying gg. It doesn't matter what time (rank) they got at the end of time every time they are writing gg.

I only type GG if I think the game was really good.

Well, I play Dota 2 so it's inevitable. For me it's pretty much an automatic response to the end of the game to acknowledge that the people in that game who weren't total garbage did well. So ironically this means that I still say it (in an extremely sarcastic way) when my team is terrible and gets curb-stomped completely even though I know it was by definition an awful game and I most certainly didn't enjoy it. :/

At least not always. I just write that it was a fun game if that was the case.
GG stands for geoglitch, you know..

Only GG if I defeat a rager from my team the previous match.
