Hmm there used to be a regular MtG player that frequents our store. He looks about 14-16 and extremely awkward, and he is always accompanied by a 40-ish woman who we assumed is his mother. She buys him the cards and encourages us to play with his son. So we find that a bit weird because he's a teenager and he can speak for himself but we're nice people so we had games with him. It was a bit awkward playing with him because the mother watches intently while you play but it's something minor that we can shrug off and they seem nice enough.

Fast forward a few months, we learned from him that they're not a mother and son pair. She's actually his lover, and she buys cards for him in exchange for favors. Things went from a little awkward to very awkward from that point on.

At my old FLGS a guard player was playing in the 'ard boys, when his vendettas missed on all their shots ( 6 TL las Cannons) He the proceeded to pick them up and spike them into the floor....

The other time was when I got nominated to tell one of the people in the store ( he is a regular) that he stinks ( never wore deodorant and didn't shower regularly). My friends logic? "You the only one able to be an ass and not care" I wasn't awkward because I was called an ass, but because before I told the guy he had a BO problem he asked if I wanted to play a league game and then threw a fit when I said " Sure, two things need to happen first. 1) go home and shower, use soap. And 2) Use deodorant, You smell and that is why no one is playing you." Keep in mind this is after the store owner and others tried dropping hints like, who stinks....did everyone shower and wear deodorant this morning? for a few weeks.

Cheers.

Many years ago, there was a guy that went into my local. He was known as "Dog gak Dave". The staffer once told him straight up if he'd been bathing in sewage. Sometimes you just have to be blunt.

This thread is now an awkward gaming experience.

So there was this thread on Dakka one time...

The most awkward gaming experience for me happened when I was playing against my mom and her Necrons. She was pretty much tabling me on turn 3 when she cut a really nasty fart. It smelled soo bad but she just kinda pretended like nothing happened.


YOLO!!

So she pretty much Edited by AgeOfEgos on you?

I have no crazy unbelievable experiences, just a guy who frequents my FLGS and has temper tantrums and curses to himself out loud whenever he is losing. Acts perfectly normal apart from this so it's even more awkward in some ways.

The ID was brough up because the type of weapon he had conceld on his being.It was seen when he was brining in his stuff. It was a pistol not legal in the states and is in the UK i guess. Something along the lines of using the same ammo as a assualt rilfe. Thats when the ID poped up because every one wanted to know how he was able to carry it. Something like that.

Sorry but for responding to this older post.... The pistol he was carrying is not illegal in the USA... It a FN 5.7x28mm pistol...Its the same round fired from the p90 submachine gun... That nut case army officer who shot all those people at Fort Hood used that same pistol... Little background on me... I served 10 years in the US Army as a Airborne Infantry Soldier so I know exactly the weapon your talking about... Sounds to me he was telling you a few war stories.. Like the time I served two tours in the Pu-tang valley next to the river of Bull-gak..

Is his name Steve?

I had a game with a friend in my local GW and everything was going fine. There was a similar game going on directly behind us, with some guys I've never seen before or since. Half way through the game I feel something brush up against me deliberately(The not meant to be touched by middle age male strangers part of me) and jump stupidly high. I look down and see the person playing behind me had his hand between my legs reaching for his model case under the table I was playing at. Like saying excuse me wouldn't of worked. He said sorry, and moved his case to where he was playing, when he left he turned around and winked at me. Bare in mind I'm a 14yr old Male Teenager, that was rather disconcerting. My friend hasn't stopped laughing about it since, nor can he stop himself from telling the story at EVERY opportunity he gets. Sigh, being sexy has its downsides I guess xD (All seriousness, scarred for life...)

Ok on a serious note I've actually had nothing but awkward experiences at FLGS...

Number one. Man yelling "ave imperator" every time he made a dice roll in a crowded hobby store....with serious conviction might I add.

Number two. 5th Ed. Set up a game playing marines against nids. We placed all terrain then finished placing all units. Right before the roll to steal he says hold on... And places a straight row of trees from board edge to board edge right in front of my filing line. Imagine a row of singe hobby trees in a straight line across the 12 inch deployment line......I was still fairly new to playing at a games club so I didn't know what to say.

Number three. 11 year old kid shows up to our club with half painted Eldar army 600 points max. Friend and I decide to get an entirely " tutorial" game going so he can off some spache mareens and have a good time. His hot mom shows up. Looks at my friend and I who are trying to carry on a bit of grimdark sportsmanship with her adolescent son and asks " how old are you guys?"

The game ends abruptly.

My awkward gaming experience is this:

Years ago when GW still did large mega battles, I used to come in every sunday for free gaming and there always this young kid who always cried when his side lost.

This happened every Sunday for a year and it was always awkward.

My experience is best told as a song:

The devil went to my game store, he was looking for a game to steal.
He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind and TFG wouldn't make a deal.
When he came across my Thousand Sons army and watched me rolling hot.
And the devil jumped upon display counter and said: "Boy let me tell you what:
I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a Chaos player too.
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
Now you play a pretty good list, boy, but give the devil his due:
I bet a Thunderhalk of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."
I told him: "My name's d-usa and Chaos is begin to grow,
But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, because fear I shall not know."

I picked up my Dakka Dice and rolled them extra hard.
'Cos hells broke loose in my store and the devil dealt his psychic cards.
And if I win I get this shiny Thunderhawk made of gold.
But if I lose, the devil gets my soul.

The devil opened up his battlefoam case and he said: "You made a big mistake."
And fire flew from his fingertips as he pulled out his Helldrake.
And he zoomed the drake across the table and it made an evil hiss.
Then a band of Noise Marines teleported in and it sounded something like this:



When the devil finished his turn I said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.
"But let me deep strike right there, and show you how its done."

Outflank with my Rhino, run boys, run.
Shooting down the Helldrake like a flaming sun.
Overwatch fire causing him a big woe
Can you make your "Look out Sir"?
"No, no, no."

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid that golden Thunderhawk on the ground at my feet.
I told him: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"cause I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best there's ever been."

Outflank with my Rhino, run boys, run.
Shooting down the Helldrake like a flaming sun.
Overwatch fire causing him a big woe
Can you make your "Look out Sir"?
"No, no, no."

True story!

Post Exalted. Well done.

Was she hot? I'd totally bang a cougar for some minis.

That's what I wanted to know. After reading the story, my 1st thought was "Was she hot?". But I can see it being awkward if you originally thought they were mother and son.

How about it being awkward because it's statutory rape?

I think you're my favourite person. Ever. I have never heard Devil went down to Georgia in such a wonderful way. Exalted.
OT: had another one from 2 days ago. It involved a guy who makes racist remarks, and a gentleman of a particular persuasion. Oh god, I hope never to encounter that again.

Staturory rape, with vague hints of prostitution?

Also, she's the kind of 40 year old that looks about 60. And no, she's not hot.

Funny you had to say that, I would have thought the fact she was bribing a nerdy teenager with Magic for favours kind of implied that?

I mean, if she was Christina Hendricks, she'd probably only have needed to go as far as Heroclix?!

It would only be statutory rape if the guy was under 16, otherwise he's just doing what many women do. You think all those hotties are with all those fat old men for their personality?

Actually the age for statutory rape in the Philippines is under 12 (or if said person is demented) and I think can only be committed by a man on a woman. Not really sure because I'm no law major but I remember my sister pointing that out (she studied law for a year or so before she dropped out of law school). So it's not really illegal in a sense, I guess? Just really fething creepy.

There was also the story of one of the regulars regularly stealing cards from the card pool, but the first story trumps any awkward FLGS moments I have to share.


EDIT: Spelling errerssss

Well, in the UK, if I remember rightly, if the boy is under 16 then he is guilty of having sex underage, if the girl is under 16, then the boy is guilty of statutory rape!

That might be one of those things that everyone knows that isn't actually true, but given the archaic nature of our legal system, I have no issue believing it.

I honestly did a real LOL, thanks for that!

Played a game with my brother in law and the opponent at the next table had brought his girlfriend or wife. The girlfriend was okay looking, but she was wearing high heals, a tight short skirt and had her boobs propped up and sticking out of a low cut shirt. As a married man with kids i don't appreciate dance club attire when i'm trying to get in a game. It's kind of out of place and i don't want my son getting any premature ideas.

That might be one of those things that everyone knows that isn't actually true, but given the archaic nature of our legal system, I have no issue believing it.

Its a thorny issue though surely? I think if anyone has a full understanding of the whole "legal age" thing, they realise its a tough one, because all we have to go off is chronology. Nobody can say "Oh after a full psychological assessment, we think that this 17 year old boy is more like a 14 year old boy, and the 15 year old girl is as mature as a 20 year old one"

But in reality, certainly that is the case, its indisputable. Some 16 year olds are very sensible and mature, and some 18 year olds are dumb as gak, and then you have the whole nationality thing, In Spain its 13, in Germany its 14, in France its 15, what about if a mature French 15 year old sleeps with a dumb as gak British 17 year old?

Its a very complicated situation, and I say this, because joking aside, common sense demands of me, that if my 15 year old son started shagging his 30 year old maths teacher, I would not actually be that bothered about it. But if my 15 year old daughter started getting rattled by her 30 year old maths teacher, Id be fething livid. I'm not saying it with a sort of "No wonder they make the lads stand behind a screen, its to hide their grin!" cavalier, "id have loved to have shagged my teacher" thing, I'm seriously saying that I really don't believe it is the same for women and men, but legally everyone seems to think it is. I don't for a second believe that it really is the same kettle of fish for men and women.

Anyone (like Yohdrin) who approaches such an immensely complex debate with a simple "oooh statutory, lets all get upset" attitude, really hasn't thought things through. Its hardly a black and white issue if you actually sit down and think about it for 5 minutes is it? Just because the law of the land says one thing, doesnt make it actually right, and you can say that about far more black and white things, such as, we legally killed 200,000 Iraqis.

I'd be bothered by that, and know a lot of people who would be too. So I think it's not common sense. Maybe it's cultural difference or maybe we just have different views on the matter, but I would just like to point out that not everyone would think that that is not particularly worrisome.

Dude, I appreciate your attempt to bring some sensible analysis to the outlandish story, but come on. There was no pistol, there was no 'British special ops' guy, just as there was no dude assaulting women and being heroically choked out.
