Watch your Language

[SteveP]

Maybe it's just me, but there seems to be a movement to curtail foul language at tournaments and league. Don't get me wrong, I think this is a good thing. However, I do want to warn you that DQs have happened at two different States I know of when players used foul language. One of the DQs was for a seemingly "innocent" mistake.

So, beware. Some PTOs have zero-tolerance, especially if it happens in or near to the younger players.

Zero tolerance at the Houston Regionals.

Zero Tolerance at the Missouri Regionals

Anyone who thinks they "got away" with something at MO States; nothing like that will be tolerated at the Mills.

Not just your language, folks. Watch the message on your t-shirts, too!

 

[SteveP]

And, I can assure anyone coming to Mountain West Regionals in CO that PTO Dwayne has zero tolerance. He also warns players that suspensions from PUI are possible.

Good for all you people. There really is no reason to use foul language at the tournaments. Another great example the Pokemon is setting for its players. Kudos to you all. :biggrin:

Reminds me of someone who cursed like 500+ different swear words at league like a few months :S

Yeah.... swearing is bad and should not be used at leagues or tournies...

Well said, Steve. While I, to my recollection, have never sworn during a game, I "have" made some pretty inappropriate comments. So teens/young adults in your late twenties...Resist any and all urges to make jokes about Sentret SW's "Grope" attack. :nonono::nonono::nonono:

I know, I know Kettler , I am now haunted by some comments made to me because of Sentrets "grope" attack.

The jokes that came out of LM Aerodactyl were (are) insane coming out of my league...

LMAO,

<*goes and reads the card again for good laughs*

That's why PUI took LM out of the format.

 

[secretsof2113]

What about the Zigzagoon in this set? There could be jokes about that one too.

 

[samurai_soldier]

You know, I think POP does it intentionally, just too see if people will make the jokes so that they can be Dq'd
