It depends on what their character is like. If they're a good sport about it then I'd want to give them my best effort. If they're an asshat then of course I'll partake in a little schadenfreude, little faggot deserved it.

I hate competition and generally try to avoid it. I guess if I'm watching people do it then I'd prefer whatever is most entertaining, which is usually an even match.

not in them failing itself, no, but seeing it serves to reassure me that i'm not doing so bad and that does make me happy

i like it when cute girls cry and pout
