Interesting. Playing tabletop and card games taught me quite the opposite lesson: that you can have a lot of fun while losing, and you don’t have to be embarrassed about losing social status.

That is a useful lesson but it doesn’t seem to in any way ‘opposite’.
I was quite in a hurry when I replied before, let me clarify. What I mean is that while you (correct me if I didn’t understand properly) tried to minimize the number of people getting pissed off by letting everyone win at least sometimes, I (and my friend) have managed to get rid of the problem by learning to have a good time while losing (i.e. we enjoy more the act of playing than the result of winning).
