				RE: Have you ever been completely destroyed? 
				 
					I'm starting to make a career of being turned into dust (thank you Hobbes, McIvan, Tiger 88, Jeepster 777, etc., etc., ... if I left someone out, props to you as well)!   
 
While it is fun to win, and it's equally frustrating to be pounded, I'm having a blast losing to great opponents from whom I learn a lot and also just enjoy the back and forth of a well played game.  I mean, you have to appreciate the ingenuity of a well planned string of disruptions and captures.  It sucks to be on the receiving end, but as far as this game we all play goes, it is a thing of beauty to behold. 
 
Then there's the witty banter that everyone seems to be equally capable of dishing out.  If I surrender the game, then it means no more jokes.  If I'm going to take a Major Loss, then I might as well get a laugh out of it, right?
