It seems to me that I can VERY rarely say GG after I lose a game of starcraft, or just about any other online game really. I feel like it's just not a good game unless I win.

Does that make me an asshole?

You lack gamer etiquette is all.

There shouldn't be a problem accepting when you've been defeated.

I had a friend who couldn't stand losing so he refused to play any game with me that he knew he couldn't win. He would pick games that I've never played and as soon as I started to get good at them, he wouldn't ever want to play them again. Total asshole.

'

I accept it, I analyze and learn from it, and I become a better player because of it. Maybe it's just an ego thing, but I'm a pretty humble dude. It seems ironic my initial reaction is anger after a loss, when it should be the opposite. I should be happy I was given an opportunity to improve. It's so hard not to act on emotion. Maybe it's just another thing I need to work on.

I'm gonna buy a shirt that says "Work in progress" and wear it until the day I die.

So much to learn, I'm gonna certainly need more than one lifetime to figure all this shit out. :P

I like your avatar, I went to meet up with a friend of a friend to jam and apparently I was early. He was sitting in infront of the TV eating mac and cheese watching my little pony laughing hysterically repeating the sentence "I fuckin love this show!" He was like some 24 year old guy that was in the army haha.

People are crazy.

I can't believe people in the army are giving it a chance.

Every time I get cannon rushed, I feel a very deep, primordial sense of hatred for the human race.

Maybe I just need to go outside more. :P

Any game where one side destroys the other isn't a good game, so i don't GG in those instances. Any close match, win or lose, i'll GG.

I almost always say GG unless I'm losing to an all in and I just can't hold it I just leave. No sense in GGing there. Just my opinion.

I always GG in custom 1v1s though because people like that remember your name.
