Understandable but if that happens too many times this attitude may qualify you as a sandbagger. Call a moderator is a safer procedure

Precisely why we need to keep better records for history, and remark the moment. I can imagine in a future date, some famous player gets to use this phrase, the contribution will no longer goes to @frank_kettu

It is not about boredom, but about the combination boredom tesuji.

Yes, and it is why I leave a footnote to remark it. If “boredom tesuji” is coined to be a popular phrase in the future, hopefully the Dickens tibit will be a link (whether or not it’s accurate) to keep it alive (maybe I should make it into a mem post, seems to be more popular that way)
