'Going down fighting' is a war metaphor. This isn't warfare, nor are any similar stakes on the line.
Choosing not to resign in chess in a clearly lost game is a grievous insult.
Choosing not to resign in LoL in a clearly lost game is a waste of time.
Choosing not to quit in the Mafia game is a waste of time. The game is over. The townspeople win. With full-time job and work obligations kicking up a shit-ton lately (as well as things like, y'know, relaxing and talking to friends and sleeping), it was an easy decision for me.
The people who are so terribly disappointed strike me with all the legitimacy of a person who toys with an opponent in chess to set up the 'perfect checkmate.' Either that, or they are unaware of just how hilariously over the game was.
It's not something I would often recommend, but then, as the statistics play out, what happened in-game isn't something that often happens.
