To spend all night practising Abba Sing Star so I can wipe the floor with 6yo dd?

Because she is not a gracious winner! She has beat me at every single song so far. And after every single song she starts singing "And the winner takes it all, the loser has to fall, and I'm the winner, your the loser, ner ner ner!" Whilst prancing about on the sofa, with her hands on her hips.

If AIBU, can I least tell her off for jumping on the sofa please?

no, go ahead and practise. Being beaten by a six year old at anything is deeply humiliating.

My DD1 is like that. An intolerable winner and an equally poor loser- pouting, "it's not fair", and refusal to play any more unless she wins. We have never been that competitive and always stressed the fun of playing was more important... I think she's just a jerk.

I wouldn't know if she is a good loser or not. She has never lost at anything before. If she cannot something, perfectly (which is not often) first time, she quits.

She is one of those annoying people that are good at everything.

Now how do I beat her? Methinks I will have to call in reinforcements. Sisters vs sisters. She can have dd1 and I can a professionally trained singer my sister!

T'is going to be the only way I'm afraid. She is beating me by a mile.

I have a 40yr old husband who reacts exactly like your 6yr old DD when he wins on Abba Singstar. So YANBU! Take her down!

My DD beats me on all the singstar ones as well but she is quite gracious about it.
Only one I am better than her at is "Like a Virgin" by Madonna

I is jealous. We would love some Abba Singstar, but we have a Wii. Bastard Nintendo.
