What's more important, Good Form or a Win?

I sometimes find in the forums people feel they played classical form, but lost.  They feel they lost to a weaker player.  

What's more important to you?  A win, or playing a classical well defined and named form?

Probably neither. Chess is an adaptive game. I don't feel like you should stick to a specific form throughout the game. I play to improve myself, so I care a lot about my overall play rather than a specific form or a win.
