The Official 2018 PDC World Championship Howlers Thread

[ifm]

So, so far we have these, anymore?

1/ Draw not done until only a couple of weeks before the event meaning people not knowing what matches they are going to stare at the stands at.
2/ Draw later than advertised, hilarity ensued as a result.
3/ Dave Clark called out a wrong player during the draw
4/ PDC couldn't find anyone good enough through ranking or qualifying, so issued wildcards for its premier event, including one to a player who hadn't even played any PDC ranking events in the whole year
5/ "You need to hit a 110 average to win a game in the PDC"

6/ PDC tv waste of time, no refunds in sight.
7/ board lighting affecting play
8/ youtube vids being deleted
9/ gotta mention the shocking unicorn boards
10/ talking boards the bull is the size of a dinner plate
11/ "fans" not knowing who's playing
12/ sound issues
13/ interviewer calls Dekker "Dimitri"

14/ John McDonald called out Jeff Smith as a former Lakeside champion!

How is illegally edited and uploaded you tube videos being deleted a howler? Unless the PDC have deleted all the official pages

Ffs. You are now an experienced poster on this forum, so you should be able to identify the elephant in the room by now.

It's Saturday night.

You do realise this isn't completely serious don't you?
It's in the same spirit as the Lakeside "howler" thread, basically anything that isn't a "howler" goes in.

Ah, already time for the "I was joking" defense.

Must be a hard time with a pathological PDC-obsession and so little to find that half of the tiny list is not even tournament-related (board measurements, pdc.tv, youtube, fans)

How can an internationally renowned brain surgeon be so dumb?

Sky using a piece with Barry Hearne saying the word Bloody in one of the clips they keep showing with regards it being Taylors last World Champs... If one of the players had said it in his post match interview they'd be apologising profusely about the bad language, like they normally do.

Bloody is not a censored word under ofcom

Losing the feed on both large screens for an extended period causing play to be delayed.

Beginning to think Skewy is in charge of the BDO media with his updates

You have only 4 entries, i think you are nailed on for mod at this rate, a few more random bdo trolls in the PDC WC thread should clinch it.
