Not really, in games like DD-TANK The only times when I do and/or fail are only if my team-mates are brainless toss-pots. In games like TF2, or C.o.D, I'm usually the Twat of the team, because I cant handle a stiff mouse or a Bulky controller.
As long as I don't get annoyed. Sure, losing normally means either you or your team mates were doing badly, but the other week, I had tons of fun on League of Legends because I was kicking all kinds of ass with Akali, and I even lost that match.
But I normally win matches, not because I am god-like at every game, but I stick to games I am good at, Halo: Reach is a good example, I'm pretty good at that game, and normally if I play people my skill level, I can win. And WoW, I guess, PvP in that is fun for me and I normally win.

I usually win more than I lose.
I tend to rage a bit on myself if something goes wrong or the ability/spell/command doesn't go through exactly when I press the key,which leads to losing.
Let's face it,no one likes losing
Regarding League of Legends,I really hate when people just give up and quit rather than surrendering.Me and my friend have turned games around in late game numerous times,but most of the players in random groups I've been with just quit if they die stupidly.

If I've played well, it doesn't matter whether I win or lose. I play a lot of Team Deathmatch and Demolition, so I lose about as often as not. Overall, I think I do quite well, and I don't mind losing.
My primary online game is L4D2. In Versus I can definitely hold my own, I'm not too great but I've played enough to be competitive. Same with Campaign, but then again it's very easy in Campaign to just screw around if the people I'm playing with do the same.
I really like winning, but I don't ever get angry, just more constructive criticism, like how I should have moved, or not have chosen that time to reload.
The only online I play these days are Left 4 Dead, Empire:Total War, Men Of War and a little bit of Modern Warfare, but I haven't played that for a while. The first three, I tend to win, but usually lose in MW2, although I tend to get an alright kill/ death ratio.
Hate competitive online gaming, cause i know i'll never be on top of the scoreboard.
But wouldn't classify myself as an online loser cause of that.
Because i win at real life.
The only game i'm a bit competitive at (when i was playing it) was WoW.
Rest was just fun, win a race in GT5, get slammed the next time.
Who cares, its called games.
Shouldn't be taken seriously.

I pretty much suck at Fighting games online. I blame the fact that people use way too cheap strategies, and that's when i become Mr. Rage Quit.
If it's a game like AC Brotherhood then the situation is "Whatever'd" if i lose, but i do enjoy winning either way.

I'd say it's about 50/50 for me. In deathmatch, I tend to lose. But in anything objective based (capture the flag, domination, rush), I almost always win. I might not have the highest K/D, but I'm usually the guy who planted the bomb or captured the flag that won us the game. It's a nice little feeling every time I see that "Point Captured" or "Omega Detonated the Explosives" thing appear on my screen. Then the guys with the highest K/Ds procede to jerk off to how high their K/D was. *Sigh*
For games like AC Brotherhood, I almost always make nthe top 3, and don't lose by that much, so I don't consider that a loss.

Thet total of all my online wins across all my systems divided by the total of all my online matches.Fleischer said:That's a bit less abyssal. And where are you getting these numbers? I'm curious.emeraldrafael said:Probably should have said ratio, because that should be 85.4%Fleischer said:You're saying you win .854% of the time?emeraldrafael said:
you know, how you figure out any percentage.
Ehh, let's say I'm not the king of anything. I'm the guy somewhere around the middle of the score chart. I'm the sniper who bags two bodyshots for every headshot where a better one would be making his fourth headshot already in TF2. The guy you probably have to take seriously, but can certainly beat with some skill.
I've played some games, like TF2, for a long time, but I'm not really all that serious about any of that, so I don't really have need to become great. Also, my (medically proven) horrible hand-eye coordination, facial tics that hinder finesse and assorted other proofs that I was put together out of second-hand spare parts tend to contribute. Still, I sometimes manage to do well. Sometimes I'm also the guy who led everyone to victory.
Since I'm not really serious about any of it, I've never actually ragequit or felt angry at getting pwnd. Sometimes I do quit after getting killed, but mostly because that was a good, natural point to stop anyway.
I guess that's part of the reason I chuckle at online FPS griefing videos that end up making someone scream bloody murder. I just really can't relate to that amount of commitment to these things.

It would be awesome to play with you, indeed.

I lose?
*cough* sorry that's not fair
I don't play much online at all, I play multiplayer with people I know, but I own them all *shrugs*
I don't lose that often but when I do I simply say "Good Game" and move on
I mean it's just a game after all
I do find it funny how whenever someone beats me when I'm doing 3 things at once they start bragging and won't let it go ever
I think people have become very sore losers and even worse winners
at least the people I know

I don't mind losing at stuff if I know I'm bad at that stuff.
It's losing at stuff I'm good at that annyos me.

The last game I played was Black Ops, at a friend's house. I played one game. Before this game, he had a K/D of three. Afterwards, it was one. He didn't really mind about the K/d, but I didn't enjoy myself at all
