CGP Grey has become annoying enough with the thumbnail metagaming that I don't want to rewatch any of his videos again, though as time passes I realize that I don't really want to rewatch them anyways.

Your character doesn't know everything you know. And “that's what my character would do” isn't an excuse to ruin everyone's game.

Relationship Metagaming Considered Harmful
kabru is piloted by a player whos invested in doing a pretty general neutral good playthrough but he's clearly considering the metagaming aspects of his dialogue choices + he has that "i wanna kill this npc" instinct while laios is the player who's begged for this campaign for like years from the dm

OOC : // As an important fyi btw these nicknames aren't meant to be widely known by everyone who interacts with them and I will in fact consider it metagaming if your muse inexplicably knows them and starts using them. Sorry 💔

The enby goblin and the trans lesbian dark elf whom are two of five in a queer polycule are metagaming corrupting the straightedge human paladin as much as possible

they are for sure metagaming the first two seasons which kinda presents the issue of how deep are you gonna go metagaming seasons before it's just so convoluted nobody can follow
I'm only like 4 or 5 episodes in but it's for sure a challenge, I was already thrown for a loop day 1

But giving a shit about things that socially will be rewarded in the current environment.
Which takes a lot of context and soft skills and metagaming to know.

See the thing is, I’m not metagaming, I’m just amusing myself cos I enjoy the challenge of playing the game in a different way.
Admittedly, I am doing this by my own rules and my own standard of winning, which may not be shared by everyone else at the time, but that’s a minor technical point imho.

Nowhere near as much as Gary. Some of the old one person lying was sheer torture for Ol' Tom

Come on over to Ongeki and Polaris Chord, where you can pay for the privilege of feeling like you're playing a mobile game
(They're fun games at their core, just a lot of stuff to sort through if you're not in the mood for metagaming lol)

i have had this itch to make literally every red object in my game have obscure things attached to it so red becomes the "easter egg color" and people are just metagaming, hunting for the color red and ways to make the red do something lol
even normal red characters come with weird secret stuff

…with someone who hasn’t come forward to share any evidence yet? Honestly at this stage I’d actually be disappointed if Jane was the killer. They are basically just telling you it’s her so hard that my metagaming powers (meaning I know it’s just a story) are telling me it actually can’t be her.

This is a bit of metagaming since my character is currently permanently frightened 1 so the penalty for fatigue really doesn't matter, but I think it makes sense for a guardian to try and pull an all nighter so the rogue, necromancer, cleric, and sorcerer can rest.

I wonder if models are willing to do this sort of metagaming

This is complete metagaming, since I haven't read most of the books, but I just find it hard to imagine the jury that picked so much weird stuff coming down to those two. Although I take the point that James has a particular elevated style that arguably puts it in that camp rather than realism.

i think they’re trying but not enough. incentivizing voting out a traitor by adding to the pot when they do is at least a step in the direction of fixing faithfuls metagaming when they def know who a traitor is

I recently took part in a tournament for the fantastic card game Netrunner. It kind of solidified the things I really don't get on with in such games.
*metagaming*, profane, cursed thing that it is.

you can do some metagaming because the answer is going to be an integer, and therefore it's _suggestive_ of a,b^2,c^3,d^4 being integers (obviously they don't have to be) and if that's true and with constraint of summing to an integer we have a,b,c,d to be integers

The thing with Harlequin is that from a metagaming perspective, we - the reader - KNOW who the fuck he is. In fact, as of the Neo-Anarchist's Encyclopedia, THEY know who the fuck he is. He is the fuck. He is no-joke real-deal badass immortal Elf-knight.
And he shitposts on matrix forums.

The thing with metagaming is that it becomes about the best. The best combo, the best tactics, the best cards, whatever. The point is that you have to be using the best things.
