I used to imagine myself punching anyone who said "I lost."

I'm always winning at this game until some dickhead brings it up.. I had a 21 year record until xkcd brought about the biggest day of losses ever.

you do know that there is a 30 minute period that must elapse before you can lose again, right? It's either that or 20 minutes, but either way, the point is to give yourself a chance to forget about it, then lose again in 20 minutes. If you keeping losing every 10 seconds, you're doing it wrong.

This shit was okay two years ago. Now it's just annoying.

As a variation, some players allow a grace period after they have lost once, during which a player cannot lose The Game again or is not obligated to announce a loss. This can range from just a few seconds to half an hour.[1]

Plus, as my gf can tell you, I'm very forgetful
