DeaDice says: mo thx.
You tell DeaDice: ok..give me a date and time when you can play
DeaDice says: hey...you see i'm in a tight match...go way...rude guy...

No comment!

This is a storm in a teacup really but anyway here's my two cents:

1 When scheduling a match with anyone bear in mind you're likely to get a much more civilised response when they're not currently playing. One good method that's commonly used is to "message OPPONENT I'm likely to be around on fibs..... message me back if our paths don't cross".

2 Everyone has the right to be unreasonable on occasions - a very, very few fibsters are unreasonable all the time, almost certainly none of these play in the leagues.

I try to schedule my periods of being unreasonable, though I can be flexible about it.

kopmann, be patient and be polite. Dea's OK. Don't bug her while she's playing, if she requests it. You have 3 months to complete the match!

Meanwhile, has nobody noticed the name, kopmann, juxtaposed with DeaDice? This is probably the source of zyxtcba's final paragraph in his rant!
