https://v.idtech.space/videos/watch/2482150e-54ef-4284-8acb-7a2dbd9a323f This is from a Quake 1 (aka. Net Quake) match for the top of the Clan Wars ladder, Dec. 1996. Clan Knightmare vs Clan Shrike. I'm not saying this is the first time "gg" was typed, but I'm sure it came into use and became popular in this community and during this time: Net Quake- late 1996. People would initially type the full "good game", but over the course of 1997 (in both net Quake and Quakeworld) its shortened form was accepted and became the norm. Notice the Diablo reference, it had just been released. Back in 1996-1998, the online communities were much smaller than today and you would see the same clans/people playing different games (Quake, Diablo, Ultima Online, Starcraft), so spreading the GG happened naturally.Uploader: fghfhdfhdfh Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbpXAC3D6IA Sun, 15 Nov 2026 03:33:50 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://v.idtech.space https://v.idtech.space/lazy-static/avatars/4047fbcc-c7dd-4827-ac50-29fce9a79720.png https://v.idtech.space/videos/watch/2482150e-54ef-4284-8acb-7a2dbd9a323f All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://v.idtech.space/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder. https://v.idtech.space/w/5vtw1YbvCPbTbdEWAhBPDa;threadId=50 https://v.idtech.space/w/5vtw1YbvCPbTbdEWAhBPDa;threadId=50 Sat, 14 Nov 2026 05:28:02 GMT Source:
