Rulings aren't enough

In Response To: Ruling (Stick)

We argue over how a tournament director should rule, and it's good that we debate these things, but directors need to do one more thing when they're done making a ruling. Assuming that the parties in question are experienced players, the directors need to say:

"OK guys, my ruling is XYZ. Now, stop being idiots. Don't say potentially ambiguous things like 'take it,' and stop doing things when it's not your turn. I'm not making any more rulings about premature actions or other rules violations, because you guys bloody well aren't going to break any more rules. Stop it. I'm busy. I don't have time to babysit you children."
