This phenomenon occurs when someone attempts to eliminate options. A person would do this because it’s helpful for trying to make a guess or help make a critical decision.
Jason gives a riddle to Robert that has 8 possible correct answers. Robert receives a hint from Jason. From this hint, Robert can now safely eliminate 4 options out of the 8. Therefore, Robert is narrowing the scope

Get the 420No-scopingmug. What comes after scope creep. The complete disregard for the original project parameters agreed upon by everyone involved, including the person now causing the scope seizure, (know as the douche.)
Coworker 1: "What the Actual Fuck?! Revising the PowerPoint now includes redesigning the website and producing a video?! Dude, that is total scope seizure!"
Coworker 2: "Right?? The boss totally hosed us on this one. This wasn't what we talked about at all."
Douche: "It's going to be great, isn't it?"

Get the snoop scopemug. A way of killing in a COD game were, when using a sniper on some one whose running, you "drag" your sniper scope across the screen to try to catch up with them and shoot them.
"That would of been the sweetest, longest drag scope in the world, if I would of gotten that, but unfortunatly, I wasn't able to pull it off, my sensativity just wasn't quite high enough."- MisterFantasmo on his video Modern Warfare 2: Booster Justice: The Aftermath with MisterFantasmo (MW2 Gameplay/Commentary)

Get the booty scopemug. A person who confused scopes will use a sniper rifle, but instead of aiming down the scope, or quick scoping, like sniper riffles were made for, they aim down the sights while rapidly moving the left anolog stick every-which-way, resulting in either a one hit kill or a hitmarker, despite the fact a majority of the time the cross hairs miss the target. Then when somebody uses a sniper riffle for what it was meant for and look down the scope or quickscope, the people who confused scope yell at the player who looked down the scope or quick-scoped and scream "I WAS GOING FOR A CONFUSED SCOPE". Confused scopes are a good way to make your friends angry, right after they yell "Make it a nice killcam!".
Demetre- "Make it nice"
Everyone-"Yes"
*FINAL KILL*
Demetre-"JACOB!"
Jacob-"It was a confused scope!"
Everyone-"Oh that's okay then."
Everyone-"Yes"
*FINAL KILL*
Demetre-"JACOB!"
Jacob-"It was a confused scope!"
Everyone-"Oh that's okay then."
