Default Re: Gamey Tactics and Bug Exploits Thread

As the organizer of the list, I feel it is more polite to tell the person that a posted tactic does not qualify as gamey, rather than just ignoring said person. Gamey tactics must have some element of seeming like cheating or being really cheesey. I am not going to add every sneaky but perfectly valid tactic to the list. As Alneyan stated, there is a big difference between me telling a person that a tactic does not qualify as gamey and people posting contrary opinions of gamey items. If I did not reject non-gamey items, we could have literally anything on the list... We could even add "being Geoschmo." There is no contradiction here, as I was not discussing the gameyness of the issue, merely rejecting it as potentially gamey.

28. Turtling, then holding a system gravitational shield in the queue with one turn remaining. Scrap your existing shield, open a warppoint, send ships through, close the warppoint, then let the shield finish.
There is this one on the list:

16. Turtling yourself into a corner using Warp Point closers and System Gravitational Shields.

Perhaps a 16a instead.
