on Sportsmanship.

Before I go into the recap, I'd lke to talk a bit about sportsmanship.

If you engage in a hobby that doesn't have a strong following, one in which you cannot readily identify participants or more individuals who would like to join you, I'll offer a few tips that will bring more to you.

1. Don't try to annihilate them outside the gate. Nobody likes to play a game they are immediately bad at.

2. Help them learn the rules, don't obfusicate said rules in order to help you win.

3. Don't cheat. It just makes you look like a dick.

That is all I can think of at the moment. /end rant.

  1. haha well said. Theres a few unwritten rules out there, especially on new players. Sort of like letting the wookie win, even if it is an ewok.

  2. Apparently these rules aren't as universal as I thought. One could/should equate them to common courtesy.
