From your own description, I can definitely see why OP was discomforted with the experience. That's like being asked to "come with me" at a casino in Vegas.I'm the store owner and was there for the whole thing. I wrote the whole thing up somewhere up above. The first 2 comments were not lofged as complaints. just comments to hot/cold dice. The actual official comment came in after the top 8 round ended. He was not approached in front of other players. I have no idea where you read that. A TO asked him to join us in another separate room from the event. There were no other people around. Only the 2 TOs, myself, and the dice owner were present. In fact, none of the other participants were aware anything was going on until 2 other players not involved in the situation started arguing loudly with the TOs over the situation after they were told about it from the dice owner.
I feel like you should take a step back and not take board gaming so seriously. Or come meet the people who frequent GYFO and see just how unintimidating our jolly bunch is.
I had to have a giggle at this. I'm 5'3" of pure mobster I guess?
But really it was never our intention to be intimidating.
