TOURNEYMEISTER RANT!!

[Rico (FGM)]

Ok, I'm officially going to from now on Blacklist players that let me and their opponents down!
-- and in future, I think my tourneys will probably be on an "invitation only basis!"

Please -- if you as a player can't seven tart a tourney game or even just get in touch with your opponent TWO OR EVEN THREE WEEKS after I send out the maps and parameters, your sorry ass shouldn't be in a tourney!

If you sit back for WEEKS ON END waiting for your opponent's set-up or turns without doing anything about it like hassling him and then reporting it to me -- then you're too "FRIGGIN' APATHETIC" to be in a tourney!

If you only can get out a turn rate of on or two a week -- WTF WERE YOU THINKING OF SIGNING UP FOR A TOURNEY??!

If life throws you a curveball and you can't play for a while, have the DECENCY AND MAKE THE EFFORT TO GET OFF AN E-MAIL AND LET YOUR OPPONENTS AND THE ORGANISERS KNOW!!

If your computer blows up -- how about taking a stroll to a local INTERNET CAFE and post a message here!! How hard is that??!!

RULE 1: People put in a LOT of hard work into these tourneys, SO DON'T BLOODY WELL SIGN UP WHEN YOU HAVE NO INTENTION OF SEEING THINGS THROUGH AND JUST DO A DISAPPEARING ACT AFTER A FEW WEEKS!!!

I'm sick of running after players, wiping their arses and blowing their noses for them!!

Enough said -- this stuff should be obvious, right?
