Abusive behaviour during the 5th roundUnfortunately, we witnessed abusive behaviour from ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER during the last night's MGC tourney. Here I first provide the related documnets and then will probe the issue. Any suggestion and proposal would be greatly appreciated, but please send them via 'private message', either in this forum or in FIBS.
1- Rude comments during the matchAs can be seen in the tourney page in NACCI website, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER had been paired with stog in the 1/8 final round:
http://www.donzaemon.com/pyr/user/pyr/index.php?page=showBracket&tourneyid=1212427048During their match, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER behaved in a manner that is truely abusive, rude, unfair and in contradiction with sportmanship codes. Here are the complete chat-logs :
Note: 'You' in the chats is stog.
You kibitz: Hi! gl from cumbria uk

ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER says: you dont deserve a sfcking win
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER says: zwaai is her e
You tell ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER: Thanks for playing.
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER says: i mentally collapsed
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER says: but dont drop
You tell ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER: np
You tell ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER: tis a fearful game s'times
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER says: you were a 99% underdog
As can be seen, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER was whining about the dice all the time which is enough bad, but rude comments targetting his opponent personally is definitely inexcusable. I have marked these with red.
This gets more frustrating when we analyze the match:
http://www.freewebs.com/persianlord/You_vs_ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER_20080601170845475.matA 2-ply analysis of the match shows that not even stog was not that '####ing lucky', but it was actually the very whining ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER himself who enjoyed a greater share of luck during the whole match:
Note: 'You' in the match is stog.
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER You

The only reason that ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER lost that match is simply the superior play of stog:

Cube errors rating loss 0.0 0.0
Nonetheless,I would like to provide a position in which stog (red) got a very lucky roll that actually changed the fate of the match:

I admit this is a lucky roll, but should I remind the very unlucky roll for stog in 17th move of the same game which forced him to leave 2 blots during the bear-off ( Position ID: 3dkAhDC+DQAAAA, Match ID: cIluACAAEAAA) ? Or should I remind the very next roll for ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER which enabled him to hit both checkers? (Position ID: vgIAAN3ZAIQwAA, Match ID : MAFlACAAEAAA)
Luck does play a roll in BG, and everyone get a same share of it in the long run.
2- Delaying moves on purpose:After that lucky roll from stog which left no hope for recovering, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER began yet another abusive behaviour: 'delaying moves on purpose', apparantly in a heinous try to revenge. The unfair and deliberate delay was observed by both juanz and blotsalot.
3- Rude shoutsAfter much delay, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER resigned, but immediately afterwards began sending rude shouts. In one case, he called MGC a 'RIGGED dice tourney' and went on by being rude against DeaDice, who is the co-TD of MGC:
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER shouts: THX==== Persion
L=== tell me please when the next RIGGED
dice tourney is on DeaDice shouts: Weil Sie ein kleines Baby sind.

ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER shouts: deadice talking
about whining
inim shouts: "The widely propagated notion of a suicidal
Iran detonating its very first nuclear weapon
against Israel is more the product of paranoia
or demagogy than of serious strategic calculus.
It cannot be the basis for U.S. policy, and
it should not be for Israel's, either."
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER shouts: thats a joke
krautlover shouts: thanks for the link, inim; that's enough,
though.

their NPT membershop
inim shouts: an uncontrolled number of copies floats
the "scene"
Slipshod shouts: the swiss just resondingly voted down
mading it more difficult for foreigners to become
citizens
inim shouts: yes, but they already got a very strict regime,
which will stay intact
yeti_yew shouts:
inim shouts: "The blueprints were in digital form and
are believed to have been copied on to the network's
computers in Dubai, the hub for the Khan
operation."

inim shouts: khan was involved, as were a number

pakistan, etc.
inim shouts: but it seems the material leaked more or
less uncontrolledly in PDF form, that is the real new
threat
inim shouts: when we will find it on emule?
Slipshod shouts: dubai yellow brick road
miss_treat shouts: as we know so far, destruction of
docs was asked by cia

they're afraid of shabnam
You shout: buwahahaa

VerdictSo far it has become obvious that ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER :
- Complained about dice in an infair manner
- Called his opponent a '####ing lucky guy' and also told him that he doesn't 'deserve a ####ing win'
- Called MGC a 'rigged dice tourney'
- Insulted a co-TD of MGC
Well, if ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER really thinks that our tourney has rigged dice, he simply can avoid playing in it from now on. But insulting players and moderators is really intolerable. Because this was the first instance of abusive behaviour, ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER is not banned from taking part in the next rounds, but I really hope that he will not repeat this unfair behaviour anymore, as he promised. I would like to run MGC even with 4 players but with no abuse than with 16 players with this degree of unfair behaviour.
PS: As many may know, me and ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER were enemies until quite recently when we become friends and actually yesterday we withdrew our mutual complaints. Thus, this is really not a case that I might take revenge of him.
ZWAAISTAARTMEESTER also chatted with me after the match and confessed that his behaviour was not true and that he gets upset too quickly. This takes a strong personality and I really hope he will act accordingly which he and his opponents deserve.
