People who cannot count and try to squirm out of marking a game using it as an excuse.

Pointless threads on darts forums grind my gears
Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
People who get arsey about players who cant count very well/not very good markers and drive them away from the game resulting in more pub teams folding.

Darts has been far too cliquey for too long.
Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
Poorly run tournaments, it's not difficult.
People losing and leaving without marking.
Top heavy prize funds.
Poorly advertised tournaments "I put it on my Facebook page".
Venues with inadequate heating.
Markers nodding when you hit a treble or looking back at you.
Rileys.

That's funny . I had not thought about it before but I suspect it's going to bug me from now on!
Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
They don't do it when I hit my treble 1s and 5s.

people who think its a sport

Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
many thanks for the input so far guys, some good points raised so far.
Interesting point on top heavy pay out structures. What are folks preferred payout structure and tournaments buy in
Would you be happy to pay a premium entry fee per man if it it guaranteed a premium experience ? like you do in a land-based casino for a fully dealer dealt game

Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
Round Robin tournaments are the way to go. (Just need more boards) , also means you can charge a bit more.

I like the poker style payouts, you can find examples on the Internet, they use percentages of total prizefund.pauluss wrote:many thanks for the input so far guys, some good points raised so far.

What I hate most is traveling to a darts event and being asked to go home because it's too dangerous to travel even though the tournament still goes ahead.
"What a Fecking Catastrophe!!"

Orrrrrrrrr, people who don't play darts claiming that it is a good thing that actual dart players are forced to play in conditions that adversely affect their performance and chances of winning money.
