At the two IG events I ran, I think overall I saw more poor behavior from the same trio of players than brutal teams. Jeez, this one particular player acted as if winning the In-Betweener were a life-or-death situation. This dude left any manners and courtesy he had at home, apparently.
On Wednesday, the guy loudly argued with his fiancee (a newer player he brought to the venue) over her lack of Clix experience to the point where she's crying in the shop out of frustration. (In hindsight, I suspect that the tears were all an act.) The guy's been told by me and several players to knock it off. I'm assigning tables for matches as a result and to keep those two apart. I think I need to find a cardboard stand-up of Jerry Springer and place it as a barrier between those two as well.
The dude hovers over me while I'm tallying up scoresheets just to see the results of everyone else's matches and see who's received fellowship votes. I mean, the dude is literally blocking my light because he's standing over me. When he did it on Saturday, I was like, "Seriously? You're going to stand over me while I'm calculating scores? It's like being in Catholic school and having a nun watch over you. Go. Away."
I've also noticed that he, his fiancee, and another new player he brought always vote for one another for fellowship. On Wednesday, the dude got all butt-hurt because none of his crew received the fellowship prize and stormed out of the shop. I chose to give it to another player who was far more deserving of the recognition.
I won't feel bad if I have to give all three the boot (permanently or temporarily) as I had a couple of former players, along with a group of players from another shop, come up to me on Saturday tell me they were interested in playing at my venue.
If it was me and I had alredy spoken to him about his behavior prevously I would have DQed him on the spot treating it as a forfit.

Happy B-Day CL! Sorry to have to tell you but the cake is a lie.
Also inregards yo playing cheese as some one who looks at power combos a lot I found the easyest way to limit my game play to not cause bad play experances for the others at my venue is to play theme teams. Also after last night I have a new apretiation of traders hate of multiplayer. Having one of our best players across from his relitivly new playing GF resulted in me getting flanked and 2 on 1ed while said BF barlley did any thing till he ninjaed the few figs I had been able to damege on his GF force. Some of it was bad dice rolls on my part some of it was the fact it was kinda a 3 player insted of a 4 player game.

I really, really, really wish there was a real-life situation where I could tell a large group of people, "YOU ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED TO SPEAK THE WORDS TO LIONEL RICHIE'S SONG, HELLO, AS YOU ARE INTIMIDATING PEOPLE."
