You'd think we were rivals instead of colleagues. Bullet is fast. You should be playing series, not single games. Where has the courtesy gone?
Maybe it's your name?
Some players may only have time for one game and need to leave after it’s finished. Players might prefer to analyze the game they just played before starting another one. The mood or personal preference of a player can influence their decision to accept a rematch.
No one owes you a rematch, let alone a series of games. Beside, you opted for a very fast game. If you want to play longer against the same player, pick a longer game.
What difference does it make whether you play the same person or someone else?
sometimes i don't rematch people because they are very scary (and i don't want to lose rating)

I could be in the minority here, but I find I learn a lot more from competing against the same person a few times than against playing several random games in a row. A lot of times you can see a similar style and try to learn against that style instead of being thrown against someone totally different. It's not a tournament. Casual games should be for improvement and sometimes it's nice to go against someone that has a style you need to improve against. I don't think i've ever turned down a rematch and I'm always surprised when people do. ESPECIALLY, if I win the first one and they ask for a rematch and then they win the second one and I ask for a rematch and they decline. THAT pisses me off more than anything else.

I thought it was a clever name. It has multiple interpretations and that's what I was going for. Simple, yet complex.

That sort of makes sense. I'm not trying to learn anything so it doesn't apply to me. If someone got into a conversation with me and asked for a rematch I might accept but if they just click the button I feel like I might as well move on to a new opponent. In the past I used to accept rematch offers and had the experience of people becoming abusive, whether they won them all or lost them all. Because of that I prefer to decline.

If you believe there is no difference, why would you make this topic?
