Powergamers will use any dirty cheat they can think of to win at all costs. Tactics such as hording power-ups and fragging n00bs to score some cheap wins are common tactics used by powergamers in online games. They also beg and plead to start the game with cheat codes or ultimate weapons to start the game. Powergamers also won't let n00bs join their team,party, or squad in fear that the n00b may make mistakes and ruin their win percentages.
Jim and Ralph are powergamers they try to start the game with the class 1 zillion sword of world destruction and will horde power ups whether they need them or not to make sure the other players don't get `em.
