Patenaudite
A strong viral infection that can affect any good board game player, suddenly transforming him in a very bad player for many consecutive games.
Symptoms
• The player starts losing dreadfully at a board game where he used to be a good player; may last several games
• At first, the player says he was not lucky but as the symptoms persist, the disease reveals itself as simple bad luck may not explain playing so badly
• During the second phase of the disease, the player feels depressed, loses appetite and is unable to have fun anymore; no suicide reported yet
• To be considered a “Patenaudite”, the player must finish last during at least 3 consecutive games, way behind other players
Incubation time
• Unknown, the disease may happens shortly or many days after getting it from an infected player
Duration
• 3 and more consecutive games where the player finishes last
• But we have seen some cases where it could last up to a month
Treatment
• No specific treatment seems to work, the disease disappears suddenly
Particularity
• The disease seems to propagate to only one player at a time. It is considered as a singleton virus
