@Corile
In a nutshell:
POWERGAMING:
Powergaming is a style of interacting with games or game-like systems with the aim of maximising progress towards a specific goal, to the exclusion of other considerations such as storytelling, atmosphere and camaraderie.
METAGAMING:
Metagaming is the use of out-of-game information or resources to affect one's in-game decisions.
Remember: metagaming and powergaming is a no-go and will result in a very hard slap.
