Every time I lose in online 1v1 games. I have Rejection sensitivity dysphoria and it's probably what's making me extremely salty on loss. I literally cannon bring myself to say 'gg' in most cases but I I'm mostly angry at myself. I avoid saying 'gg' only when I win either as I feel like like a hypocrite.

Funnily enough, this doesn't affect me in boardgames

Not saying 'good game' when the game wasnt good is weird? I say it if I actually enjoyed the game. Win or lose.

It's been used as a gracious closer, kinda like a handshake in chess matches, for decades now.

For me its just if someone (including myself) demonstrated spur-of-the-moment genius or creativity
