Good Game, dammit!

I don't know how many times at the end of a game my opponent has immediately hit the rematch button. It comes across as either "yeah, you beat me this time, but that's just because I screwed up" or "play me again, you obviously suck". My immediate reaction to such rudeness has always been just to decline the challenge, no fun playing against such a brat. However, I recently realized that my interpretation of rudeness is just one possibility. Maybe my opponent is on break at work and wants to get in as many games as possible as quickly as possible, or maybe they find me a fun challenge. To test out the theory, I immediately type "gg". If they respond in kind, they get a rematch, if not, see ya later. Aren't I neat?

Yeah, I know, but my blitz rating has gone up quite a bit since adopting my new "don't play rude people" policy, so Nancy Grace and the Donald can go eat some of that!
