Who are the best and worst members of your game group and what do they do?

Posted by Eylrid

People you are most happy to have in your group of players vs. "that player". What are the things people do that you like the most? What things are just insufferable?

    In general, the worst players in my groups are the ones who focus too much on winning the game and not enough on the entire group having fun. That exhibits itself in a few ways:

    • Too picky about which games they are willing to play.
    • Taking too long thinking during turns, bogging the game down.
    • Playing rules lawyer or nit-picking the rules of the game to win.
    • Dominating weaker players instead of taking it easy on them.
    • Throwing a fit if they lose.

    Likewise, the best players are the ones who do the opposite of the above: willing to play most games, sacrifices optimal play for the sake of moving things along, and remain cheery regardless of winning or losing.
