I'm sure all of us have had at least one game where you're in the middle of your winning turn, you have your plays set up and ready to go, and then... misclick. Out of seemingly nowhere, your treasures are flashing, or your hand is a few cards larger than it should be, or cards are flashing red to be trashed, or whatever. And suddenly this game that you had in the bag is lost forever.
There have been times for me when games like that have ruined my day. Sometimes, when it's bad enough, I ask my opponent to resign and throw the game. I feel like it's not an unreasonable request - if I explain exactly what the problem was and that I was indisputably about to win, they could sympathize and let me have the win that I would have already had anyway. Nobody's taken me up on that so far, and I guess I don't blame them, but... ya know? If someone was about to beat me and botched their turn that badly, I'd kinda have to take pity on them.
So what do you think? Are there any situations where you'd ask for your opponent to throw the game, or where you'd throw a game for them? Is knowing that you had the win before enough or do you want it on record?
