Essay Gambit

When a person, in an attempt to get someone's contact info without directly asking them, asks another person for their help in reviewing an essay they wrote. The person asking will offer two options between printing it and giving it to them, or getting the other person's contact info and sending it to them.

Almost always results in an advantage for the person asking, as they cant lose anything if the other person is nice enough to review their essay for them, creating a foothold for the asker to get more involved.

Usually used by people who are in fear of rejection, and by asking for them to review a paper they feel that they can avoid a direct rejection and still participate in someone's life if they opt to just take the printed essay.

Ironically, even if they got someone's contact info through this, how would the person who receives the essay edit it without printing it out?

Person 1: "Hey, I wrote this essay for English class and I don't feel like showing it to the professor, can you look over it for me?"
Person 2: "Sure why not."
Person 1: "Perfect, I can either print it out for you and give it to you tomorrow, or send it to you tonight but I'd need your contact info for that."
Person 2: "Just print it and I'll look over it then."
Person 1: "Alright, thanks" (cries on the inside)

Or:
Person 1: "I just used the Essay Gambit and was able to get her contact info."
Person 2: "Why not just ask her normally?"
Person 1: "Cause I'm a pussy lmao"

The Orange Gambit

Referring to the tragedy at Badekar Monastery 1564:
Due to a racially & religously motivated hate crime, 27 cases of lost life in a dispacable act of mass murder.

The perpetrator are believed to have flown into a violant rage after game of degenerate gambling. Nothing else is known about the perpetrators except that they continously shouted "Orange Gambit" during the game. Bystanders of the crime report hearing it continiously for a period of around 1h & 20m untill it was abruptly stopped by screams and gunshots.

It is believed this was a racially and religously motivated crime due to that 25 out of the 27 victims were of the Chucku people.

(During a game of Horse Racing")
Person 1: "I'm going to bet on the Orange Horse, let's call it the Orange Gambit."

Person 2: "Let's go! ORANGE GAMBIT!"

Person 3: "No way dude! Have you not heard of the tragedy at Badekar Monastery 1564?"

fraser's gambit

A maneuver in which a male, usually intoxicated, attempts to guide the hand of a female, also intoxicated, towards his groinal area during makeouts, resulting in either retaliation, or, in cases of exceptional intoxication on the part of the female, a sloppy handjob.

Yeah, he tried to pull fraser's gambit on Pamela, and got a quick slap to the face. Good try tho.

Stoner’s Gambit

A man posing a question such as “How do you know what you know?” in order to prove his own brilliance and depth, while hopefully stumping the woman he is talking to. The man posing the question honestly believes that he is the smartest and most unique individual.

Woman: says something pointed, intelligent, and for whatever reason, threatening to the mansplainer.

Mansplainer uses Stoner’s Gambit: “How do you know words mean anything?”

Gambit skeet

A super power which gives a nod to the X-man Gambit. Although rather than charging cards with his elusive explosive power, this ability refers to the idea of throwing your skeet on someone(thing) and having it explode.

Specifically refers to making a fake 'jerking it' hand gesture and then throwing your skeet, which then proceeds to explode. It should be known that a gambit skeet is not complete without a sound effect to go along with the skeeting action.

Somebody makes a stupid comment and you gambit skeet all over them, effectively rendering their comment null and void.

Screenshot Gambit

When you post a statement the owner of the server disagrees with and screenshot it, so that if they delete it you can post the screenshot to make them look like an opinion censoring ass. Usually results in a ban since there's nothing they can counter it with, but if enough people see it, it can be DEVASTATING to that person's reputation.

GuyMan: Hey, did you see me pull the screenshot gambit on DumbIdiot last night?

DudePerson: Yeah, I can't believe he actually fell for it, what a dumbass.

Ben's Gambit

The act of taking all of your most powerful units in a vanguard around your leader across the map into the enemy castle to slay the enemy leader, winning the game.

The Foremost guy: I'm taking Jenigga slayer the 2nd and going for the Ben's gambit
