The game was over before move 1 due to ''Mathematical Impossible'' because the rating difference was too high.
No secret you can never win vs. a higher rated chess player, but the same rules applies to them, for example a 2000 rated can never win vs. a 3000 rated, - that is just automatic/mathematical.
But my question is: shouldn't i get +1 instead of -1 for losing vs. so unfair pairing? Nobody learns from this game, too complicated for me, too easy for the opponents. Just lose-lose situation. Why actually LOSE rating points vs. a 100 % set match due to rating difference?
You lost. So you should lose rating points in a rated game. 1 point is practically nothing.
