I'm not going to get into details. It's a personal matter. What I will say is that it's not so much that I lost, rather it's the fact that he won! Now don't get me wrong. I truly want to win, but I'll settle on a stalemate. I learned a long time ago that you don't always win. There will be times when you will face an adversary that will either have a better skill set or a better hand. In that moment there's usually not much that you can do. You're facing an enemy that is superior. In the past, when I've come to this conclusion, I usually change up my strategy. If an option for a tie or a stalemate becomes available then it becomes my way out. With my attention focused on forcing a draw, I am more than willing to ignore openings/traps that my opponent leaves behind. Hell at this point, I'll settle for anything to keep the prize out of this guy's hands. He doesn't deserve it, and he sure as hell doesn't know how to treat it. Honestly, I don't even know if I was ever a serious competitor. Like I said, it's not about a personal win...it's about him losing. So as we are counting down the final hours, it appears that he will be victorious. And it's that simple fact that is driving me over the edge (insane). That's the reason I've offered up a choice. When I actually go over the edge, will the end result be "Hulk SMASH" or will I go the way of our favorite Bolshevik Muppet, Crazy Harry. While the methods vary, the end result is the same. Total destruction! Snarling green monster of destruction, or insane bomb enthusiast? You make the call.
