Yeah. I got a black eye from a kid last weekend on my visit to Seattle. I decided to hook up with an old friend who has never quit playing 40k. This would be my second game played in 15 years and my first one in 6th. We went to my buddies local store to find a match.
We both were playing Necron. Im a new player so my list isnt tournament/competitive or anything. He has 4 nightscythes, 3 doomscythes, orikan/c-tan combo, death and despair etc etc. The cheese of the cheese if you will.
I had a buddy there who was very familiar with 6th and an expierenced tournament player. It was agreed before the game that it would be ok for him to help me a bit with tactical help, rules help etc. The cheese list kid wanted me to "give him a challenge". He figured with my as he put it, " sad little necron list" , that with my friends help I might push him a little.
The game starts and with my friends help we decimate him. A combo of his bad rolls, my good ones, and my buddies genius tactical help tilted everything in my favor.
This kid yelled at the top of his lungs the whole game at his rolls, my rolls, his luck, my luck, my friends advice etc. Anything he could complain about and more was screamed.
After the game I thanked him for the game and tried to shake his hand...he replied by yelling F%^& YOU and threw something at me. It was the new servo skull tape measure. It hit me square in the face. Did some good damage too. The owner ran over, grabbed the kid, threw him out and I guess banned him from comming back. He then apologized to me well over 100 times and gave me a free Nightcythe/Doomscythe kit. (Id take a black eye and bloody nose any day for that)
Here is my ugly mug with the damage this arrogant, cheese-listing, assclown did.

Didn't realise those new skulls were so dense! At least they're hitting their target market. Kid sounds like an utter douche, I'd have made him eat his tape measure for that.

Never use a long word where a short one will do.
The store owner had him out of there within 60 seconds. I kinda took the hit and stood there a bit dumbfounded to be honest. I was pretty pissed off but I couldnt really do anything in America as a Canadian citizen without getting the boot and the "DO NOT COME BACK" stamp on my passport. That and he was a minor.
I hope someday when hes in prison for his anger issues somebody throws some soap at him and hes forced to pick it up...KARMA.....gotta love it.

HA! Did he even get to pack up his army? or did he just leave it in the store?

He packed it before he threw his skull. However, his cases were left behind when he got thrown out.
He must have gotten them back somehow. My friend told me he was a regular there and nobody liked playing him. Maybe him freaking out on me was in fact a service to the local gaming community? I hope so!
well, hopefully he never pulls his models out of their cases to play again. You are a good guy for not doing anything about it and letting the store take care of him.

Not too much "TFG"ing around here, thankfully. A lot of us take it competitively, but we normally arrange that before hand. ive never had a player that I wouldnt play again, although Ive talked to a few that sound a little unpleasant about their Grey Knight armies, mostly "Mind Strike Missile" spam.
If that happened at my FLGS, pretty much all of the regulars would beat him to pulp, because we are all 'minors' as you say, and he would get banned.

Aye, but we wouldnt do any lasting damage. Well beyond a broken leg in case of a couple of them.

I'm not talking tough, I'm just stating a fact. I realise that it looks like fighting talk, but if that happened to any one of the regulars, the offending player would have the victim + another to deal with, if it is blows, or just helping throw him+his things out.

The only guy I refuse to play is one guy who somehow managed to be all the different types of TFG combined into one TFG.
WAAC counts-as jerk: he took his beautifilly painted (but over-highlighted, oh yeah, he didn't paint them himself, but claims he did) Dark Angels, but ran them as Blood Angels. His Belial (Termie armor) became Mephiston and other stupid counts as bullsh.
Mouthbreather: heavy-set guy who because of medical reasons cannot stand with out other support. Alone, I am fine with this, but the fact that he had to lean on the flimsy table over and over again that eventually led to him knocking off my custum-made converted Hive Tyrant with wings into more than 20 pieces, and then blamed the fall on how off-balance the model was and how poor of a job I did with the base. . . . as I set about picking up the pieces, with no apology whatsoever from the guy.
Rules Lawyer who doesn't know his own rules: this doesn't need explanation.
Takes forever: In my first game (in a tournament) he took way to long for everything, and he always plays this slow. I ended up beating him so badly, that he conceded the game at the end of the first half of turn two. Oh yeah, everyone else was done with their full game at this point. It took us more than 2 hrs to play one and a half turns.
doesn't even know his own codex: oh yeah, this is because he just hops codexes to the latest and greatest.
He also had the audacity to ask me if my fully WYSIWYGDA army had this weapon or that weapon. when it was clearly on the model. Actually he asked me if my DW terminators had plasma cannons. and he supposedly played DA what?
and this was as his bone white *blood angels* terminators were running towards me with his belial*Mephiston* and his dark green tactical marines *deathcompany* were running towards me.
and the list of everything this guy did to be TFG just goes on and on.

Have to ask, what did you tell your friends/family when you got home? Please say you said"You should have seen the other guy." . But in all seriousness, I think you ran into the god of TFG's I would be royally pissed, but I think it would take some brass balls in my flgs to resort to violence considering any one night that its open 2-5 people are open carrying sidearms.

Whats worse, the guy who sits down, barely plays, and THEN tries to tell you what to do, or what is better, He then proceeds to say he knows the rules when he clearly doesnt.

No wait, because someone is being a donkey cave during a game, the best thing to do is beat him till his leg is broken.
The biggest indicator someone is a loser is them complaining about 3d printers or piracy.
4. "Clan Mouth-breather" These wonderful individuals are a group of boot marines wearing moto t-shirts and sporting 'high and tight' haircuts that congregate every saturday with all MEQ armies and proceed to lock down 3 tables with a day long monstrous abortion of an Apocalypse battle, all while spouting annoying boot marine stories that they makes them look tough.. it's not so much an intrusion into everyone else's bubble like the other 3 previously mentioned individuals, but rather their effect as an overall cluster of annoyance for everyone in the FLGS, many of the regulars at our store are either career Marines or Veteran Marines and, at the risk of sounding like the old guy on his porch, a bunch of young pups running around barking like they're the big dog in the yard is annoying. Plus with them locking up 3 tables on the busiest day of the week is just plain rude.
Pretty sure /every/ boot is like that though. Never known boots to hang out at the local FLGS so that's surprising to me any way, usually they're too busy drinking, or being insecure enough that they couldn't play with war dollies. So I suppose that's an improvement from a libbo incident stand point till someone at the store has to take'em out to the ridgeline and "explain" things to them.

Anyone remember the incident up in Bellingham, WA a couple years back? Some kids were drunk and poked there heads in a game shop and started insulting everyone inside - broke a window too. Two of the 'regulars' chased after them and beat up one of them pretty bad. Got arrested for it too. Might want to ask them if it was worth it, huh? Felony record over some little plastic toys...
Anyway, to add to the thread, there was a creepy unemployed electrician who used to hang around my FLGS when I used to play 40K. He was there A LOT, and was too cheap/poor to ever buy the rules. He'd just hover over your table like a weasel and then start yelling at kids if they go the rules wrong - this from the guy who never owned a rulebook.
He scrounged up enough IG to challenge my Eldar and we started playing a friendly 3rd editon game. I drop a template weapon on his squad and hand him the round template to measure how many it hit.
He fiddles around a bit and says "Two."
"You've got to cover as many models as possible." I reply, knowing I had at least three.
"No, I don't! I can place it wherever I want. Learn the rules!" he snaps in a complete $@%%-head voice.
Here I just blew up. "I'm the only one at this table that even OWNS the F'in rules, #$@$@%!!!"
He immediately goes meek and says that he'd just watched people placing the template while they played and thought you could do whatever you want. Which pretty much summed up his entire knowledge of 3rd Edition rules, whatever he could gleen from watching others. I'm fine with not knowing all the rules by heart, but at least don't be a cheap-ass and buy the friggin' rulebook!!!
*bursts though room with axe* HEEEAAARRRS JHONNY!!!

Well played I love this, 'Nids isnt going to hear the end of this quote from me at my FLGS...
I have one last story to add...
I was in a tournament (in the last days of 5th ed), and my first game was against a Red scorpions player, now he had a thunderfire cannon and then stated that is did not need LOS when firing its "subterranean" shells (now I did not know this so Im let him have it) in which case he kept pounding my defiler and kept making it take dangerous terrain tests, he also won the game. Now I did not realise that it could not do such an action until I got back home checked up on my own SM codex that, that was utter b .
Needless to say I was at least a little peeved, but I did not say anything until the tournament, was finished because I did not want to leave a bad impression to anyone.
