1. Understandable

2. I left a movie theatre because the film was boring. Do I get an article?

3. Would a major deodorant please sponsor one of these events. Mark it down as pro bono work.

4. THIS NUST IN!!!!

   NEWS!!!

   BUT IT’S NOT NEWS!!!!!!!!

   click on this so we can get paid money.

5. There should be stink bouncers and disqualify offenders which affects opponents performance.

6. That site is fake news dont give it clicks.

7. At this point, just have multiple large bonfires around the venues. fire burns and brings oxygen in. naturally recycles the air.

   or you could have people pass a smell test prior to them attending.

8. Why yu-Gi-Oh fans know as having bad hygiene? It can’t be that hard to have a shower

9. Genuine question, no hate – why are nerds like this?

10. The thing about smell is that it’s so hard to prove it later on.

    Pictures and videos don’t capture th smell.

    I had a very smelly housemate at a sharehouse 7 years ago.
    It was sooooo bad. I talked to my housemates two floors down because the Japanese on the same floor couldn’t smell him. I thought I was losing my mind.
    They agreed that the smell was really bad . Some wondered if he was hiding a decomposed body in his room. Others argued that dead bodies don’t smell like that, but it doesn’t make it less gross 🤢

    We asked the sharehouse company to evict him as the smell was so strong and it sticks to everything . In addition even if he wasn’t there the smell prevailed.

    But it was so hard to prove to the company – they had to come in person. Finally someone came opened his room and replaced his mattress.

    He got angry and said he would call the police.

    Anyway eventually he got evicted.

11. Sometimes the battlefield has status effects.

12. Understandable, have a nice day.

13. Just goes to show Eben if japanese people don’t sweat, they can still STANK

14. Fat westerners?

15. They’re just trying to mimic the Mai Valentine strategy!

16. The one and only Yu-Gi-Oh tournament I ever went to suffered from the same issue. Honestly it was the only time l was glad I was knocked out in the first round lol.

17. I heard yugioh tournaments had a hygiene policy? Is it not true in Japan tournaments?

18. There was another similar occurrence in a (iirc) SSBU event, the organizers asked the contestants to take care of their own body odor through showering regularly etc.
    …and some guy pulled out the shit take that is, asking the contestants to shower regularly is ‘raising the bars’.

19. Being a third rate duelist is one thing, but being a third rate duelist with a fourth grade hygiene just ain’t it. Poor woman…

20. Loool

21. More like Yu-B-O! Am I right?

22. You read this as a lack of hygiene, I read this as a free win!

23. Shocking

24. my SO’s brother is really into card games and was surprise that people shower daily. That seems to fit this narrative.

25. When I used to play semi competitively I went to a YCS event in California and literally the smelliest human being I’ve ever encountered was in one of the rooms. Shit you not – you could smell this guy from >20 feet away, from across the room, and it only got worse as you passed by him. He was massive, probably weighed like 4-500 lbs.

    I genuinely felt sorry for his opponent and those near him; it actually made me angry that the officials didn’t do anything about this because I don’t doubt that it caused those around him some distress and affected their games. Dude should’ve been thrown out.

26. Take a shower dorks
