/initgaym/ , n. [IRC] An IRC version of the trivia game Botticelli , in which one user changes his nick to the initials of a famous person or other named entity, and the others on the channel ask yes or no questions, with the one to guess the person getting to be it next. As a courtesy, the one picking the initials starts by providing a 4-letter hint of the form sex, nationality, life-status, reality-status. For example, MAAR means Male, American, Alive, Real (as opposed to fictional ). Initgame can be surprisingly addictive. See also hing. [1996 update: a recognizable version of the initgame has become a staple of some radio talk shows in the U.S.
