Method acting is immersing yourself in the role. Thinking as the role thinks. Acting as the role acts. And so on. If a PC doesn't know something but the player does and the players acts for the PC without using the player's knowledge, that's close to method acting.Can we drop this? You're definition does not match up to anything I've ever read, from what I've read as a layman my analogy was accurate. It also doesn't matter one bit.
When I play D&D I don't metagame because I try to inhabit my character. I'm attempting to not just mimic what the character would do, I'm actually attempting (poorly, of course) to immerse myself in that character. If you say that it's impossible to call any RPing method acting so be it.
