1.... Ng8f6 {Fritz's choice (that's not an accusation, by the way).
Not sure what fritz version you are using, but Fritz 13, considers 1. ...Nf6 to be the 17th best response to 1. g4. To me it is one of the worse responses that you can do. Was surprised when you wrote in the comments that is Fritz's choice.

Your worst loss is 30 moves? I am impressed. Here's mine ...

Similar to Richard, the oldies are the most heinous. This one smarts even more because galapog's a mate. The O-O-O is so bad it is comical 🙁
