Shut one eye when you do a seek and it will bug you half as much, hopefully.

You need to send a sane and rational message to adjudicate explaining the above,
and asking that the game be adjudicated as a win.

Then you need to relax.  If you let things like this get to you, your head will
explode.

Don't say I didn't warn you.
