  NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Powergaming
Powergaming is a particular way of playing role-playing games in which the emphasis lies on developing a player character that is as powerful as possible.
It is important to note that powergaming, in this sense, almost never implies active cheating or circumvention of the rules, merely using them in ways that are technically legal but frowned upon by those who consider the intent of the game more important than its exact implementation.
Many powergamers often style themselves as such, taking pride in their abilities, with some pointing out that "powergaming" as an optimization problem does not exclude enjoying the game in other ways.

 The SAGA Project - Rules on Powergaming
Powergaming is often a roleplay killer and it's frowned upon most of the time but there are a few cases where it could be overlooked, or even approved of.
Powergaming is not against the rules, but it is not condoned, and chronic powergamers will be persecuted.
Powergaming is generally defined as doing things for purely OOC reasons, mechanical advantages, or in game actions that are done to increase the power of your character, that makes no IC sense.

However, in my understanding muchkins are not [necessarily] cheaters, they are more like powergames that take it outside of the game and exploit as much as possible, making this process their main goal.
The difference between a 'powergamer' and a roleplayer is NOT (contrary to the opinion of many of both) obvious to a casual observer.
While a 'powergamer' appreciates limits and rules because they define the playing field against which they operate (no rules == no challenge == no fun for a powergamer) a munchkin detests limits and rules because they get in the way of their achieving ultimate power (rules == limits == no fun for a munchkin).

So anyways as the topic says, my interpretation of powergaming is getting a New game, or Old if you like, and playing it non stop til you beat it.
Whenever I would get killed in a battle or whenever a certain time in the plot of anime gets boring, I just tend to waste time doing whatever else there is to do.
The only games that I've beaten that could be classified as being "powergamed" would be Kingdom Hearts and FFIX.

 RPG Vault: Morrowind Developer Q&A #4
I believe some classes in Daggerfall were easier to powergame up advancement ladders than others, and I believe that will also be true in Morrowind.
Sticking to that no-killing strategy will not be a very efficient way to climb a powergaming ladder, but it excites me because it fits my PC persona and because I can't do it in any other game.
For Sensitive Artistic Reasons, I don't want to mark them in the manual with "Best Powergaming Package" or "Best Roleplaying Package." The best way for a hard-core powergamer player to ensure efficient custom class design will initially be personal gameplay analysis and trial-and-error, and later by reference to boards, web guides, and hint books.

 Neverwinter Nights: New melee char: 1h or 2h weapon?
From a purely powergaming perspective, maybe you'll be slightly better off with a one handed weapon + shield, but the emphasis here is on 'maybe' and 'slightly'.
Of course, if you really want to powergame to the max, start off with a dwarf fighter and you'll get the dwarven waraxe feat for free (the best one handed weapon along with the bastard sword and katana).
When I start trying to powergame I ALWAYS end up abandoning the character and starting over, leading to numerous revisits of Irenicus's Dungeon, West Harbor, etc. Shields are great and a lot of feats spent on one weapon type produces great damage numbers regardless of the weapon selected.
