Gents,
I have long believed that no one should comment on any game in progress during a tournament. That meant, if I saw one player leaving out a DRM on a TH attempt, I would say not a thing.
However, I am now beginning to question that aspect of Kibitzing.
I would never, ever tell a player how to play his match, make suggestions or comment on his play during the match.
But, what if Joe newbie is playing Max the grog and Max leaves out DRM on a TH DR. If Max gets the hit, Joe the newbie will likely lose the game. I am beginning to consider the wisdom of making such an error known to the players involved.
The same could be said for other rule errors.
I am not saying that each match should be refereed. But, if observers are observing and they see a mistake being made that will have a major impact on the games outcome, perhaps a comment should be made.
What do you think?
And just for yucks, I will attach a poll to this Q'
