chess

A game where if you lose you think the person who beat you must be an extremely intelligent person. And if you win you think you're the best player ever.

I just won at chess; I could probably beat Bobby Fischer now.

ad hom

short for "ad hominem," meaning a person is verbally attacking a person involved in the debate instead of addressing the opposing side's argument or position.

Telling someone that they are wrong in the debate because their motives are wicked is an "ad hom"; therefore, the moderator will strike it from the record.
