Talk:game over

Cybersecurity
Note: Folks in the cybersecurity community often say "game over" when a security system is compromised [citation needed]. For example when an evil maid performs an Evil maid attack on an encrypted disk.

Maybe this could be added as a definition? Tbh, I am not getting my hopes up on this, since it's probably original research and not notable (correction: WT:WFW says otherwise), but this is simply a note.
 * I think phrase def 2 already includes that meaning. &mdash; S URJECTION / T / C / L / 12:46, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

"(video games, rare) To receive a game over message." I am particularly sceptical of the verb inflections. "Game overing, game overed"? And the second set: "gaming over, gamed over" (maybe even less likely)...? Equinox ◑ 06:10, 21 July 2021 (UTC)


 * The recipient is the gamer, so we need (implausible) uses such as, “I wanted to play on, but unfortunately I game overed/gamed over.” (Urban Dictionary has a very different sense for gamed over.) --Lambiam 10:46, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

I managed to add two cites to the citations page. Perhaps there is a gaming Newsgroup someone could check for a third? Kiwima (talk) 01:20, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Both are transitive, unlike “To receive a 'game over' message”. --Lambiam 22:39, July 22, 2021 (UTC)
 * True. If we find a third cite, we should change the definition to to end the game of; to give a 'game over' message to. Kiwima (talk) 08:26, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

 * , You have a tendency to jump the gun on things. According to the process set out at the top of this page, an entry is supposed to wait a week from the time it is cited before being closed, and then wait an additional week after it is closed before archiving. You closed this entry on the same day that I marked it as cited. Kiwima (talk) 21:31, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I've messed something up with the dates on this. Thanks for pointing this out; I've struck my closure. &mdash; Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 21:37, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
