(noun)

1. When a player’s enjoyment of a survival or exploration game is ruined because someone else discovered or built something first. It’s not about competition—it’s about the emotional need to feel like the first to explore it themselves.

The Floyd Effect

Short for "The George Floyd Effect". When a population has an extreme reaction to an isolated incident involving only a few people out of hundreds of millions of people, usually due to media focus and sensationalization.

The Meghan Effect

By advertising, promoting, and/or wearing low inventory merchandise, an illusion is manufactured to deceive investors & customers into supporting a failing celebrity brand. This illusion is meant to deceive consumers into believing that "sold out" equates to popular & profitable.

Meghan Markle borrowed & modeled low inventory fashions and out of season designer clothing. Her "friends" purchased the remaining stock therefore causing the scarce inventory to quickly "sell out" which created The Meghan Effect.
