one of the early multiplayer games that I played taught me that there were cloaking technologies at the top of the armor tech tree. I never knew that before, and since I had never used cloaking against the AI (or seen it used against me) I had no idea where to look to start researching sensors.

of course, the other candidate for worst game has to be Furball II. Though some people maintain that it was a fun game, I am very unhappy because it turned out to be very unbalanced and there were flaws in the game setup that were not properly accounted for. chalk it off to lessons learned.

I'd have to say that my worst game ever ws the first full edition game I played. Had no idea what to research and only had destroyers to counter an ai invasion with battlecruisers

I think the worst game I had was the first time I tried playing the Proportions mod. I think I was in turn 3 or 4, when this fleet of ships comes out of a warp point like gangbusters and starts obliterating my small empire. There was no way I was going to win, so I just quit that game and started another, with a different strategy. Maybe one of these days I'll go back to finishing that particular game.
