“Grognards and oldschoolers,” yes, that’s it exactly. It’s not new to people who were adults in 2006 and may have grown up in the 70s-90s playing and living DnD.

Diablo holds my very first memory of playing with people online. I logged in to town and I asked about a secret cow level. He replied you have to run around a building 3 times and press Alt+F4. After starting the program again, it was at the young age of 12 I realized people online are jerks too.

The difference is that FGC rules explicitly disallow coaching. You may disagree with it, but those are the rules. An audience member shouting out what essentially amounts to coaching is no different and the tournament organizers should have dealt with it immediately.

This is more akin to chess than football. And it is definitely not legal to shout out strategies from the audience during a chess match

May God have mercy on the next person you try to play a card game with.

So me yelling out the cards in players’ decks at MTG competitions is a’okay? Awesome.

That’s a pretty weak argument.

dude i saw with the corner of my eyes the pic and the words miyamoto and what at first glance looked like “dead”(dad) and I had a fucking heart attack.

Reggie: *wearily* “All right, Stephen, let’s get this over with...”
Stephen: *silent for like 30 seconds* “Mo--”
Reggie: *click*

Apparently they found an axe near to president office desk with “do not touch” sign.

A real class act, from beginning to end.

Here’s a picture of Doug Bowser, for anyone unfamiliar with the man.

Thank you for going out of your way to actually point that out. I’m not American nor a native English speaker. So it’s often very hard to understand some of these debates. For me it all boils down to that Americans have quite the binary view on most things. You’re either a republican or a democrat and all opinions go…
