How to annoy your opponent

Warning: This behavior might result in penalties

Ok so everyone likes to mess with someone from time to time. It’s also nice to see someone rage quit and or be annoyed. Here are a few ways that you can annoy your opponent during OTB chess.

Face your king sideways so that the cross isn’t facing forward but facing a 90 degree angle

When you adjust your pieces, adjust them to be off center

Mock your opponent’s move, chuckle at it, get the audience to laugh( if there is one), just make sure that your the one getting the last laugh

Stall on your turn

Tap your fingers or play with something during your game

When moving the knight angle it in a position we’re it ticks off your opponent

That’s all that I can think of right now, but in the end it’s all fun. So do it kind heartedly

Wow. It's all about sportsmanship and then you even try to make it look like something fun to do not to behave properly.
Please be nice to people.

ask them if they have a dog

in my case, i love making my opponent very skeptical ..
for example..
if he did a bad move,, i say with serious face oh you did very good move, please don't be afraid,, nothing is going to happen to you..
& if he did a good move,, i say oh maaai god,, you are doing great job with smothered laugh and chuckle..

I believe that the technical term for players that indulge in this sort of behaviour is w*nker

I had to laugh about this xD because it certainly would make me mad. However I would just adjust them back, what you gonna do? xD Your move, @YourAverageC0der - our game would continue outside the chess board - a psychological game, a staredown, a game where only one can win - the one who adjusts or the one who creates chaos - do you really want to go there with me? >:D
