The 'Second Variety' of how to lose unlosable games
is nothing compared to SF-grandmaster Philip K. Dick's novels.

Only the title of this thread reminded me of his novel with the same name.

The first one can be found here 'What chance to lose this game?'

Hence, the question is,
'How could one (I) lose this game?'

I can't load that thread. Can you please tell me about its context?

I cannot load it either (I guess this problem stems from GoDiscussions.com being partially defunct).
I retrieved it after googling for the most likely search terms in GoDiscussions for a thread
where I posted an 'un-loosable' game.
I comprises a picture of the actual board, after my opponent told me 'time',
awaking me from pondering over which of the last 1-pointers would be better.
(I cannot find this thread anymore on GoDiscussions)

I rested baffled. However, it was a nice game and did not affect any others.

In the game of this thread, a whole team was affected.
