    Quoted from 85vett:

    Shoot, the wait at TPF is from people not paying attention or knowing what a freaking line is. You have people standing around all at the front and when it's next person up there is a discussion of whom's next. Not blaming the tournament directors as they are busy enough but serious (players) is it really that hard to:
    - be ready to play when you are next in line? Yeah, that means to put your phone away and be ready to end your conversation with a friend when the game is ready....
    - stay in the line that you are intending to play in. There are big signs on the chairs telling you what each line is for.
    - limit your silly pregame routine to a couple of seconds. This reminds me of golf to where the 30 handicap person needs to line up their put 10 times and take a hundred practice strokes just to not even come close
    - and my biggest pet peeve. If you are playing your last ball and you get frustrated. Please don't rage tilt a game or shake it while you walk off to "show" your frustration. That person in line now is waiting a couple mins to play to let the tilt settle down.
    - can't believe this even has to make a list but for crying out loud, TAKE A SHOWER, nobody wants to smell your filth.
    - in conclusion. Don't be an ass and be courteous to those around you.
    I beg for tournament directors to not allow multiple plays on a game with others waiting. Can you imagine how long you will be sitting on your butt waiting to play a game if there are 10 people in front of you and each of them got to play 3 games? You could be sitting there hours. Not exactly my idea of fun.

    Don't know who you are, man, but that was one of the best posts I have ever seen on Pinside!!
