“It's not often that I fill in Match reports, and even rarer for them to be a whiney one, but sometimes exceptions are made.

Blackbox schedules me and Speedypman. I PM him in IRC, and get no reply. Notice now he;s been offline for 7 minutes. Nevermind I think, sure he'll be back soon. Wait another few minutes, then he replies. No problems up to here, he joins and we roll rain and my kick off.

Its here he tells me he can't set his players up, still no problem, we reload. He then wins the kick off and selects to recieve. I point out we need to recreate the coin flip/kick off result, and this is where things start to go downhill. He writes a bit point about me wanting the kick off but not the rain, I figure he's having a bad day and explain I'd be happy to recreate the rain but it may take a while. He then starts getting aggressive, patronising, and pretty obnoxious about almost everything.

Game starts playing out, I lose my apo early on, and am now down to ten Dorfs vs 13 Orcs complete with DP, and multi MB. Here I ask myself if this game is salvagable, and if I even want to continue with his snide comments throughout. Decision made, I move onto another game instead and regretably concede.

He then continues the baiting in IRC and via PM, threatening me with a 2 week ban *if* he decides to report me.

Just the sort of guy I'd rather not play again unless i have to, and certainly don't want to spend an hour getting my team destroyed and getting verbally harrassed throughout.

Hope you were just having 'one of those days' and that this isn't your typical behaviour? Just a shame that you make such an effort to make a game so unenjoyable for someone else, despite attempts to solve the 'problems' you thought were present and an attemt to reason with you.
