Today, I tried a little experiment. I started off with like 700 points on iccup... and I was pretty pissed at how shitty I played to get to that point.
I was so pissed in fact, that I just started throwing games away. Ironically, I won 1 cuz the guy said "lag" and quit 2 mins in, and another guy by the same token randomly left.
I'm so bad that my points went UP when I TRIED to lose.
Obviously, I wasn't trying hard enough.

I was trying to lose games on purpose to get that nice shiney D- rank. I lifted off my CC, killed all my SCVs and hid it in the corner just to confuse my opponent. I came back 30 minutes later and found the game was still going. I quit and checked the replay, turns out he didn't even leave his main for the entire game or build additional SCVs and was slowly massing battlecruisers from one starport.
No I'm never serious.

Just rage incoherently about how terrible your opponent is and how they win by doing stupid shit, then leave.

Ideally, do this after stealing your opponent's gas.
My strategy is to fork people.

Yeah I tried much harder. Another guy d/c'd when I drone rushed him ( he was T ). Another guy, again, left before I could do anything thinking I'd proxied. But those setbacks aside... After about 2.5 hours I finally got to D- rank of 1

I feel so accomplished.

Well, congrats at being the lowest ranked player on ICCUP.

You got something done there. Although a few wins on your record might tarnish that. You need to next get to 1 without a single win.
God Bless

Terran players can feel lucky that scv don't syndicate.

Try to rush with your 1st 4 workers. There's a high chance of you losing.

Hahaha! I did a similar thing a long time ago; I played a game (D- level) on Medusa where I lifted my CC to my mineral only and then proceeded to play as normal. My opponent (Zerg) never scouted until he attacked (maybe 10 minutes into the game) so I don't think he even realized the stupid shit I had been up to. XD
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.
