Rage of the crab tosser
It happens it’s competitive, do you want me to hold your hand because somebody called you a mean name?
Nope not really.I only understand that anonymous in gaming can turn people into babies.
And this comic ring very true

I wouldn’t really mention sportsmanship in this type of thread. The better sportsman would just accept that there are also going to be sore losers, because that’s life. He/she wouldn’t go out of his way, to the forums, to post a thread about his/her repeated victories against said person.
Sportsmanship goes both ways.
I play mostly at night and the skill level of other players has really gone down hill as if it’s their first time playing. I win 99% of the matches and can even just sit there the first 1/2 of the game and still win (3 minutes into the game and the top score is 30-60). The only games I’ve lost in a while are those started with less than 2 minutes remaining.
To avoid complainers, I simply leave every match and join a new one. It’s faster anyways, however their is DR on the chest, so if the next game is more than 1/2 over, you’ll only get a junk shell. One time, I did have someone call me out about already winning, even though I was switching games and I purposely never win the same game twice, even if I left and reentered the same one. At the time, I didn’t even remember them from my last few games, so they must have hated me to remember.
I’ve also been called a hacker once for an unknown reason. There were only 3 other players, so it was very easy to toy with them.

A lot of people just want to get the achievements. They’re just starting crab toss so they’re not good at it. They end up playing against people who have been doing it for days and dominate them match after match (not necessarily the same person). You have to understand they can get frustrated.
I’ve had that happen twice to me. The first was when I joined in a match, overtook the leader in scoring, and won the match by about 30 points. He must have been a sore loser because after that he started targeting only me with Fishing Rods, Planks etc. I only stayed because I was still trying to get Crabtacular at that point, and I didn’t need to win to get it.
The second time was even more pathetic. There were two people in the match from the same guild, and the second guy was basically helping out the first by constantly attacking whoever was in the lead so the first could run around with the Crab unopposed. Now, I don’t mind people working together to get the achievements, but the two of them never stated they were doing so, so it was effectively one guy getting a massive handicap over everyone else. If you’re after achievements, at least let the match know so that people who want a normal game can leave and find another match.
