Get the Stalemate mug.When you are basically in a stalemate in the progression of your video game, it is a Video game stalemate. It differs than being just "stuck" in a certain part, because it involves not being able to do a certain thing, because your weapons suck, so you need new ones, but you dont have enough gold/credits/whatever to buy new weapons until you beat that certain thing. It is a very annoying situation.
