Just tell him to stop? If you are really best friends it really shouldn't be a problem.


But I love being internet humorless guy Nah I only say stuff like that (as in my response not kets :p ) when it is pretty obvious it is not a joke. Or more accurately when it doesn't seem to be a joke. Namely when a lot of people repeat it with no lols to soften it.

If I got a note from my friend, it would be an instant "JUDGE! NEED YOUR HELP!" followed by "While I was looking for you for a judgment call, my opponent moved my models, and I have a witness that he's cheating."

If you pay money to participate in an event, don't let someone drive you out because they're cheating. You're rewarding their behavior. Get them booted out, and publicly shame them on the spot...loudly.


It does seem interesting. People here have no problem calling out RAW and RAI on people in the safety of the forums, but would not in a real life instance?


Probably afraid he was going to have to play the guy in a later round and didn't want to get tanked on sportsmanship or similar...

I would like to think sometimes pitty and compassion might play a role in a decision.

I certainly recognize the justice issue with letting cheaters get away with things, but...

It's a game of little plastic men at the end of the day?

EDIT:

I actually had a problem with a friend cheating.

What was really happening was different rules interpretations. RAW vs RAI, codex vs core book, order of operations, literal interpretation and things like that. Actually he and I had completely different ideas on how some things worked at several points in the rules, we actually talked about it, and believe it or not posted the situations in a public forum afterward to see what people thought. Sometimes people agreed with me, and sometimes with him. Sometimes we came to a common concensus and sometimes we didn't.

It was actually pretty fun to use YMDC for that here on dakka, and hash it out with others over dinner.

No violence ever happened, but I did tell him to shut up a few times when he tried to jump into my game and tell me and my opponent what we were playing wrong.

No smashed minis either... Ha ha ha.

Couple of things:

If I saw another player moving another player's models while the player was away from the table I'd wait for the other player to come back, ask him if he wanted his models moved and then if he said no I'd call a judge over.

If one of my gaming buddies said that this happens to me while I was gone (never left a table mid game in a tournament though), I'd call over a judge, have my friend describe what happened, and then tell the judge that I don't play against people who show this kind of behavior.

Second, unless everyone I play is playing it wrong in order to move up or down a level in ruins we need a 3" move per level. This is the way the BRB says it

You are playing it right. Levels in ruins are always 3" apart for the purposes of moving between them.

For absolutly no holds barred RAW then I suppose they are equal. (I mean Gwar! knows the rules... the book contains the rules... the main convinience being Gwar! can [probably] talk )

I'm starting to suspect Gwar is some kind of mutated rulebook with a mouth, that ran away from GW HQ after being abused by Jervis.

Out of curiosity what did the judge say? is going up floors in ruins the same as buildings? I know this issue has come up before for me and my friends so that we usually just treat it all as buildings for simplicity's sake.

You equate ruins with buildings?
