Personally, I would have just walked up to him and lay a beat down, or just tell him to STFU and that hes trash. Sucks for your friend though, I hope that in the next tournament, this piece of shit trash kid gets raped. | ||

I don't know any type of sport where badmouthing is allowed (hockey maybe?). Intentionally distracting a player while he's serving is definitely not allowed in major tournaments, and there are umpires for those matches anyway. This was probably a local tournament run by a few people, or even one, as the OP implies. There's just not enough man power to supervise 5 or 6 games all at once, so they leave it to the players to keep score. | ||

Nothing like this happens. Nobody is as rude as that kid. NOBODY. What he did, he went well over and beyond acceptable behavior in society. I believe that everywhere, people should conduct themselves in an honorable (not necessarily pleasant though) manner. That kid did not do that. He played dishonorably, and should be ashamed for his actions. An analogy to his actions would be if a SC player lost a game, and his opponent went to his booth and got in his face about it (cheering when double faulting). Inconsiderably rude and dishonorable. @ploy Think of it as playing deezer in real life. But you can't threaten him, punch him, etc. On September 25 2011 04:51 PanN wrote: So your friend should have won but didn't? Yeah ok. If the kid can't get punished for making noises and distracting his opponent, it seems he played intelligently and won. Yeah, it may be extremely annoying, but he won, and your friend lost, seemed to have worked rather well. Do you do any sports at all? STFU or troll harder. | ||

lol but yeah, if your friend was actually affected by the other kid, he should've at least said something about it during the game :/ | ||

I think the idea that he "lost the mental" game is completely false. The mental game would be reading your opponent and bla bla bla, not tolerating and accepting poor mannerisms and sportsmanship. Those are common grounds of a sport. Not being a sore loser and not being rude or unsportsman-like to your opponent. | ||

Im surprised more people in this thread don't know this. Serena Williams went completely on-tilt again recently after getting called on something quite similar. http://espn.go.com/tennis/usopen11/story/_/id/6958687/us-open-serena-williams-loses-cool-match That said, your friend needs to be more assertive and call the kid out and bring over an umpire. Let the kid keep making noise after an official comes over and get himself DQ'd. | ||

Your friend "should" have won eh? but did he? nope. Did some freak accident happen like him falling and breaking his knee or anything of that nature? nope. Dont try to pull that stupid shit, its obvious as fuck already you're over exaggerating everything that happened to try to cover up for your friends loss. Decide it's a good enough story to throw on TL to try to get us to believe. Like someone else said earlier though, noise like that and shit isnt allowed in major tournaments anyway. So the official didnt "see anything" or in all likely hood none of the above happened and you're just trying to feed us some sack of shit to make up for your friends loss. good one User was temp banned for this post. | ||

You caught him, yep. I think you consider the readers in this blog entry too high of an importance. | ||

in the long run it does not matter if your friend is good and works hard he will end up where he belongs. the squaker will always be a "skinny piece of shit" no matter what Maphackers gon' mackhack. They aint gon' get any respect and they certainly aint gon' win any starleagues. | ||

And for those of you who are trying to be smart with the whole "meta-game" bullshit, LOL you guys are fucking retarded if you guys are trying to make a good analogy with that. As much as you might like to exaggerate, in the end BM in SC is limited to small text on the bottom of the screen. Tell me a fucking time where you guys jumped up in surprise or spilled your drink because one of your friends started chatting you. In sports or art, even a squeak can disrupt your routine if you're concentrating hard because it's physically distracting (aurally that is). It's not the same at all. | ||

There's probably people at all levels who try to do things to piss you off; one of the ways you get better is you ignore it and move on. To make an analogy to SC2, there's lots of BMing done at the lower leagues. But then look at Idra.  | ||

Tbh if this was my friend (and I wasn't involved in the tournament, so not you) I would have given the kid a piece of my mind and smacked the shit out of him if he still tried to get fresh, but I'd definitely regret doing that later, props to you and your friend for being the bigger men. | ||

I've always been the type to be bored playing games where the slightest noise could ruin my chances, though. Mind you, the closest I've come to playing tennis is racquetball that was, to be charitable, loosely regulated. While I was in the Army. With other Infantry grunts. That was kind of a contact sport too. | ||
