setnaffa: I neglected to garrison Rumania. Yes.
Woelf: A week or two ago I mis-clicked on a card near the end of a game of Notre Dame on BSW, which ended up costing me several points. I think I still ended up winning, just not by as much.
Bokrug: My worst move was criticizing my wife's move! I won (the game, anyway).
puffinge: I should have played my merge tile in Acquire, but I didn't. I lost, but I would have anyway.

Rosebud: Worst move? Playing the game. It was Antike, and, yes, I lost time.
scriptorum: Just yesterday I was player a poker game on the PSP and hit the CALL button instead of FOLD. Oops.
DHEK: I don't recall making any big blunder recently. I might have of course; it's just that I don't remember it.
sotc77: dude, hi ho cherry-o, i'm tellin' ya, that spinwheel is brutal!

themagni: I built a road straight up in Settlers. I lost.
aleo09: none come to mind, playing kids games recently.
diehard4life: I traded for five calamities in Advanced Civ and picked the two worst of the bunch.
PsyJam: The best thing I can think of was playing my first game of Ra, starting with the '16' token, and trading it in for the 1 and a few tiles on my very first turn. Bad, bad idea. Yes, I totally flopped because of it.. couldn't make any suns back and was outbid from then on in.
Leo-T: Railroad Tycoon - missed blocking an opponent from connecting NY-Chicago. Yup, lost to him.
GrimJester: g4 after 1. f3 e5, no
leslauber: Wasn't thinking while I was playing chess; I lost my queen at turn 8. No trade. And yes; I lost because of it. Thanks for bringing up such an embarassing and sore subject.
Cut & Space: Me, making a bad move? All my moves are "chef-d'oeuvre"
brainrob: Didn't play my last resource in the 3rd round Louis XIV ... and my 4th round hand was appalling. Yes.

nexttothemoon: I can't recall a specific move.
Numskull: I failed to move my guy in Thieves of Bagdad when the guy right next to me knew I had a valuable gem he could steal with a minimal investment. And yes, I did.
FrozenHoHos: Sleuth. Accidentally marked the greens instead of blues and made a guess after 4 turns. Yeah, I sat around for a while after that.

MikeOberly: Qc5....yes.
JCooperofCharity: sitting down at the game. lose? pick the game.
vetinari7878: In TtR:E I foolishly tried to go for Stockholm-Petrograd when the game was close to the end. I lost (but came in second anyway).
Loquutus: I average one really bad move per game.
Cavedog_pdx: In my last game of 1856 I was planning on sinking the Grand Trunk into the Canadian Government Railroad. Unfortunately, I screwed up and had enough cash in the company to pay back it's loans saving it from being nationalized. Unfortunately, a short time later it's trains went away and I was forced to buy a diesel out of pocket dooming me to last place.
ssmooth: I bought the wrong Sentinel in last night's Das Zepter von Zavandor game, taking the Emeralds one for 8 points instead of the Knowledge Tracks one for 12. But I was far enough ahead that it didn't matter.
Karlsen: Built cities in the penultimate turn in Power Grid to take me to first place. Yes
POvidiusNaso: In Ingenious, I needed orange tiles, and with at least one move left, I didn't re-fill my tiles, forcing myself to re-fill on the next turn, and then the game ended. (I lost because of this foolishness)
Randy Cox: I really don't keep up with that sort of thing.
snoozefest: i just lost Tigris 'cause I needed a red tile and discarded too many to refill my hand (here, game 16633); i may have lost anyway, but it was pretty close; thought game ended at the end of the TURN, not in the middle of a refresh action
sourwyrm: plenty
djlg: Drawing cards in AmunRe, buying bricks, then looking at the cards I bought and discovering a "2 for 3" card. It was the last turn so the card was wasted. I still won. :-)
Great Dane: I revealed my loyality in Shadows over Camelot. No, I won
CherryPie: Kept the wrong Ticket in 'Ticket to Ride Europe'. It was an error, I discarded the wrong ticket. & yes I lost because of it.
Rukasu: Traded a resource to a player in Settlers, allowing them to buy a Development Card and win...my turn was next and there was a good chance I was going to grab my tenth victory point. Doh!
ValJor: I haven't made any big blunders recently
Lord_Prussian: Don't recall atm
sos1: As Prussia, fighting a long battle in a Clubs zone in Friedrich when I was defending in a different and more critical Clubs zone the next player's turn. I lost, though probably not because of that one move.
jttm: I rolled a 1. I won with a streak of sixes
chaddyboy_2000: I made a stupid play in Rumis. I lost horribly.
CortexBomb: ...trying to win in Liberte by going after the Battle Box in the last round in a 5 player game, and failing in that, trying to seal up control in the radical party via a Paris coup through terror when I already had a stack of blocks in the moderate party left over from earlier in the game, when my generals were all dead, and my Paris push was revealed to be a horrible mistake I crashed into 3rd place
skelebone: I don't recall nor agonize over particular moves.
CDRodeffer: In Tricolor, I made a move to end the game, because I saw that my position was hopeless.
Spielfreak: dunno
