In Response To: Is bitching rude? (adambulldog)

I had good dice for most of the weekend. One of my later-round opponents started bitching about it in the second game of the match, and said something rude every time I rolled a good number. He tried to engage the lone spectator in a colloquy about how lucky I was. His own good numbers went unremarked. At one point in the middle of the match I rolled a awkward number and was taking a few seconds to think about it when he exclaimed, "Do you even know how to play a roll that isn't perfect?" He quieted down when things shifted his way, and then was able to extend the match to 8-9 with a 3% probability joker sequence. In the final game I rolled a joker which led to a closeout. At this point he started screaming profanities and invective until the match was complete. I was happy to stop playing him.

I find this to be pretty outrageous. I wouldn't even ask him to stop... I'd call the director and INSIST that he stop. Crybabies have no business in backgammon.

I think that kind of behavior would really affect my play, so I'd need to go out of my way to stop it.
