Rating question

I set up an unrated game so we could practice the conditional move feature, when we were done practicing I resigned the game. I lost 14 points in my rating. why would I lose points in an unrated game??

Game 5641745 was a rated game. Is this the game you meant? Game 5728364 was also a rated game.

Thanks for the responses, I had a second game set up also and didn't lost points on that, I clicked unrated but i must have not been on it and did't realize it didn't take...Oh well...thought maybe I was lucky enough for a fluke error.l...just turned out to be operater error!!

At those rare occations I play an unrated game, I always double check the info about the game in order to see it's realy an unrated game.
Once it wasn't so I had to terminate it by clicking the garbage bin and start over, now really unrated.
