Worst resignation ever?

Just logged onto *ahem* another chess site, expecting to see a lost game. Instead, I have a message saying "Well done, you played well". My opponent had resigned. Here's the game:

I very nearly resigned myself after 23...Qxf2+

So, anyone else had an opponent resign rather than deliver mate-in-one?

I have resigned a lot when I shouldn't have.

Just the way my mind works...hard to deal with real life stuff with 5 positions in your head.

Same reason I'm stupid around pretty girls.

untergang you have obviously hacked his password, resigned his game
and sent yourself a message. That is so bad.

(what is his password, I'm losing to that guy as well.)
