Hi guys.. I just had a game where I was one move away from checkmating my opponent. But then my internet disconnected and when I got connection back, I lost.. Just like that. Then I rage quit and deleted the account. This account I currently use was newly created. I don't know why I'm posting, though. Maybe I need some helps overcoming unnecessary losses like this..

How do you normally deal with rage?

I go out late at night, find some homeless person sleeping in an alley, and set them on fire,

It's normal and everybody experiences it. No help is needed for such unfortunate losses. Get over it and play your best.

There's no way you can avoid losing due to connection interruption. It happens to all of us. Don't let something like that take the happiness from you.

Bro, why delete the account and make a new one? Would you change your identity and move to a new town if something unlucky happened to you in real life?

Online ratings mean very little to me. I've lost three recent standard games because of disconnect and countless blitz games also. The last standard loss was to a 1300 and I was up a knight, an easy win but the app crashed and my rating took a hit. I know I woulda smoked that dude and that's all that matters to me.
