Player 2 Syndrome

When playing a split screen game and you end up looking at the winners play area where you start to believe it's your screen. You eventually believe it's you who is winning or doing great and start to feel amazed with how good the game is going. At the end of the round or near it, you are flooded with embarrassment as you realize you have been staring at the wrong play area for an unknown amount of time thinking you were playing it where in reality your player has failed to advance. Could also happen in real life.

I thought I was finally getting the hang of things until the Player 2 Syndrome set in.
