Okay, I am a complete newbie to the Multiwinian world. I've found that a lot of 'new-ish' people (me included) find it a little bit scary/intimidating/disheartening when they first log on. Chances are your first battle will be against some really good players who have been playing for a long time and move a lot faster than you. A lot of online games such as Multiwinia have different sections for new players (who can play against each other to become intermediate players) and a place for the advanced etc. This means that people play against people of a similar level and so everyone always has fun and fewer new people are put off by always losing and the experienced players always get a challenge.
Anyways, I still love playing Multiwinia, I just find that I play single player a lot to try and get good which prevents me from playing on the multiplayer challenges as much as I would like. This is just an idea so no worries if it is completely not the direction you want to take Multiwinia!

this is a constant bother in strategy games, and the only cure is to humble yourself and take the loss.
Think about it like this, someone cant win without someone else loosing. SOMEONE has to loose, and if enough people do this, then you at least have fighting competition.
typically when you play against someone better then you, you lose because they know what they are always supposed to do, and they use that against you, the real strategy game doesn't come until both players learn these habits. Believe it or not, you will pick these up quickly if you play. Do your best to counter them, and eventually you will run across someone like the old you who you will then maul.

That reminds me of the ladder
