I am playing in the FA Cup with an ECS team. At half time, against an conference team, we had a power failure, causing the game to be lost (I had saved just prior to starting the match).

I was losing 2-0 at the time.

I reloaded the saved game and won 4 - 0

Ethically speaking, what should I do? (I saved the 4-0 with a different name so it is not permanent)

I would just play on, having won 4-0. Would it be fair if you were 4-0 up, lost the save and lost 2-0 at the second attempt?

Take the 4-0 win and carry on. It's not as if you quit the game, then re-loaded to play again.

A power failure is not in your hands. Maybe it was the LLaMa Gods coming to your aid, but then again, they probably would've let you lose.

Frank is a fair and just overlord. Obviously he noticed a bit of aquaplaning and performed a minor correction.

Carry on, Geldhart. Accept Frank's wisdom and make the most of it. I won the cup last time that happened to me (not that I'm putting pressure on )

Floodlight failure. Game abandoned. Replayed. What's the problem?

Nothing you can do about it Geldhart. Nobody can account for a power failure in their area, unless you did it yourself.

Play on after your 4-0 win as normal.

I have had a 'power failure' whilst losing an unloseable game. Not in llm though, as i've not been in an unloseable game

Thank Frank and keep on playing. No Dramas. 47 Power failures in a row however...

Okay, I have accepted the 4-0 win. I had originally mistyped, it was FA Trophy, and I'm now in the semis.

Since it was a cup match, the goal difference is meaningless so I'm feeling ok about this.

I agree with nokem. Game was abandoned through no fault of your doing, therefore a replay would be required. Play on Geldhart and remember to thank Frank for his guidance in time of need.
