New Most F*cked Up Incident Ever

I've been debating even making this post, as it will contribute to the "wtf is wrong with your game, @MrCatPants?" but I am stuck on the proper next course of action and would like some opinions.

Some of you may have noticed I had posted a semi-innocuous response in another thread talking about my last game that "I have a new worst thing that has ever happened." Well, here's what happened and what I'm thinking I'm going to do.

Hosted a muti-table tournament - we are in the cash game post tourney completion, so only about 7 of us are left out of the original ~20, and I have yet to use the restroom all night. I get up to go and clearly notice someone has significantly spattered the wall next to my toilet (about a good two feet away) and attempted to clean it using the paper handtowels I set out, but since it is builder grade paint is does not 'clean' well and there's clearly a major stain with a epicenter and significant corona of spatter. I know we all assume it's probably pee, but I don't know if it was vomit, a spilled drink, etc. I emerge befuddled and bring it up because I'm assuming the wall pee-er/puke-er would already have left. Based on the reaction, I believe that supposition is correct. I ended up having to repaint my bathroom the next morning - if my wife had noticed she would have lost her shit (and rightly so). I have not received any sort of communication or apology from anyone after the fact (I get why if someone did it accidently they may have just left and not wanted to bring it up with a large audience, but not receiving anything after is...troubling). I've done some soft feelers with more trusted regs, but no clear feedback.

I have debated sending out a note before my next tournament (as that crew does not fully overlap with my cash crew) with a 'hey, here's what happened last game, can't believe I'm saying this but please respect my house, yadda yadda - something like this cannot happen again' but 1) not sure that will help anything and 2) unsure if I should be actively trying to determine who this was, whether 'unfortunate accident' or negligence and 3) not sure if publicizing with my crew is the right move/if it makes it weirder or not. It's really fucked up.

What would you do next with an established group?

Ask each individually

Are there drugs or booze involved?

Are drugs or alcohol involved?

No drugs were involved, though that doesn't rule out someone having pregamed. I suspect one attendee in that respect, but I have no evidence of a connection.

Alcohol was present, but I don't recall anyone being completely hammered — and there's only one man who sometimes overdrinks. He was the first to be busted, so he didn't have much time to drink.

Ask each individually

That would take me like half a day - it's 20 people.

That would take me around half a day — it's 20 folks.

19. You can mark yourself off the list :cool

I think a blunt, public discussion is in order. "Someone peed on the wall. I had to repaint it. If MS Car finds out, we'll be in the doghouse for sure. Sit if you can't aim straight. Don't let this happen again" "I don't care who the guilty party is, Just don't let it happen again."

19. You can cross yourself off the list :cool

Can we?

Oof that sucks. I'm more of a smartass so next poker game I'd line the bathroom in plastic liner and make a poster with arrows, but that's just me.

The fact that they tried to clean it up probably means they feel pretty bad about the whole situation.

I'm definitely going to send a note before the tournament explaining what occurred and why you had to clean it up. Hosting can be thankless and that's acceptable, but this crosses a different line of absurdity.

Check with a few trusted friends or regular players to see if they know anything about what or who damaged the wall. Put out some feelers about the Phantom Shitter.

edit: I just saw you've already started asking around

i thought about the poster idea. Like pee does not go here pee does not go here pee goes here. but seems a little passive aggressive. would rather be assertive.

Agree with the responses so far. When you send the invite for next game, add a footnote that, while it doesn't call out the incident specifically, will let everyone know to please respect the house and to clean up after yourselves, and to please come to you ASAP for any issues that are unable to be resolved on their own. Honesty is the best policy, but if the facilities and property are not going to be respected, that the occurrence of future games is in jeopardy.

when stuff happens at my game, I send an email to everyone (BCC) and sometimes I get replies, sometimes I don't. my wall also resembles some misses, but not sure if it's players, kids, or both. I've tried to clean, but it will also need to be repainted at some point.

@Irish (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/114/) can help you get a urinal setup if you have a good space for one

I think it’s fair game to bring it up for sure, even in a generic way (eg. please keep it neat in the bathroom/house), especially if you’re comfortable with the guys you play with.

I once had someone puke in my fenced in backyard without telling me. Messaged everyone in a group chat the next day after my dog tried eating it and the guilty party fessed up (privately). Its awkward but getting it out in the open is probably the best way forward.

This is the way poker games wind up in garages, and how poker players forfeit indoor bathroom access.

Seriously, trouble with urine.

This is how poker games end up in garages, and how poker players lose indoor bathroom privileges.

In all seriousness, urine trouble.

boooooooooooooo

Not an option. Nice house, and it's the only downstairs bath.

this game contains the finest stories

Set up cameras....errrr wait...maybe not a good idea.

Tell them the bathroom is broken and hand out depends.

I'm willing to bet it was the person who tried to pet your cat.

19. You can remove yourself from consideration :cool

Not necessarily.

if my wife had noticed she would have lost her shit

Very convenient, since I think the bathroom is the most fitting place to do exactly that.

Maybe install a poop knife.

Next time invite the same group.

You as host should stand up before the game begins and say what needs to be said. Make it clear that if it happens again there will be no more games.

(You can still invite the reliable cash regs if it comes to that)

There’s a ton of these. I doubt his wife is interested in having that.

His would probably need to say, “if you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a doll and wipe the wall.”

I once hosted a 39 player tournament. Once.

When I had to clean a puddle. Not a little dribble. An actual puddle of pee during the first break I knew I would never host a game that big again.

Unfortunately a lot of guys think they can piss while still drinking a beer and scrolling FB at the same time.

Definitely say something like the good @DrStrange (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/574/) said. Not saying anything only makes it worse. Also, put some extra cleaning supplies, Clorox wipes, roll of paper towels, some disinfectant spray etc in the bathroom so if someone does have some kind of accident they can clean it up without any embarrassment of having to ask you. And make sure to tell the players they are there and to use them.

What is wrong with people.

Ask each person one by one; if nobody admits it, send a follow-up warning that if it happens again you will not host.

Invite everyone over and require the removal of shoes going forward. Take a break early and piss in everyone’s shoes.

Eye for an eye, and the good suffer for the bad.

Add sitting down peeing to your list of house rules

Send a note out that includes all of their spouses. If they are doing it at your house they are likely doing it everywhere.

I’d suspect the beer belly’s that can’t even see what’s going on down there and don’t want to mess with their suspenders and belts.

What, do you have a beer truck parked out back? If the player was sloshed that’s too bad…

Funny how my current game went from me being able to quickly assemble funds based off the aluminum I’d gather up to not a drop of alcohol being consumed.

The first 450 sessions I spread at The Frogtown Card Club never made it out of the muck like that.

Sad.

Time to construct an outhouse.

This is my main complaint about hosting..... pee anywhere except the toilet...... honestly, how difficult is it to stand and aim for the center of the bowl? And if you do miss, tidy up after yourself!!!!

Unfortunately, it’s just the cost of doing business. If you’re going to host 1000 poker games over 10 years, something like this is bound to occur. Not sure discussing it will change anything, but that’s a real bummer for you — glad you managed to get it sorted.

I stopped inviting one rather large fellow because he would frequently wreck my bathroom…

This is the best answer, with the exception that I would absolutely call out the incident specifically. Let there be no uncertainty regarding exactly what you are referring to.

This is what happened. I understand it was most likely an accident. Accidents happen. In the future, please let me know asap if there is an issue that needs to be attended to.

While the incident itself is unfortunate, I completely agree that not owning up to it is the greater foul.

Since I attend this game, I certainly hope future games are not in jeopardy...

This is my biggest gripe about hosting..... pee everywhere except the toilet..... honestly, how hard is it to stand and aim for the center of the bowl? And if you do miss, clean it up!!!!

i've even got one of those elongated bowls!

I bet you have at least one storm trooper in your game for this to happen....

I had really bad bubble guts at a friends game See here and I knew if I used his toilet it would have splattered everywhere. So instead of messing his bathroom up, I chose to leave the game. Got stuck in traffic and crapped my pants. Still better than messing up someone else’s bathroom.

I keep one of these in the back of my trunk for those rare occasions:

(Still can invite the good trusted cash regs if worst comes to worse)

I like this answer the best. I've also done exactly this. I hosted a 3 table 27-person series that spanned 8 games, so the same people showed up each time...

There were multiple bathrooms in the house, but I only gave guests permission to use 2 of them.... somehow a guest ventured into an unauthorized bathroom and proceeded to use my roommates personal items, and pee on the floor, and not clean up.

I never found out who it was, but I decided to make the announcement at the next game that any player found to use that bathroom would receive a lifetime ban from the game. It was direct, quick, and I got the validation in the moment based on everyone's faces that they knew I was not messing around. No incidents since, and back to Mr. Rosskeys-nice-guy.

First question - do you have any male children between the ages of 3 and 25? I have 4 boys. Cleaning piss off walls and floors was a daily chore.

Second - Clorox wipes on top of the toilet and Kleenex disposable hand towels. Like someone said, drinking a beer and scrolling PCF leaves no hands free. Give them something to immediately wipe up any misfires.

Third - oil based paint with at least a semi-gloss sheen. I just moved my daughter out and needed a hazmat suit to clean her bathroom. Every hair color she's had since she was ten was splattered all over the place, and if you think boys are disgusting.....girls are worse. This is the poker room bathroom and every surface has been primed, painted, and recaulked.

Thank God it wasn't post Taco Bell splatter.

So like Skittles meets tacos?

Taste the border.

This is not at all helpful but I can’t imagine how what you described even happened to a wall, and I also can’t imagine having a surface near a toilet that doesn’t clean easily and can be stained.

But I also can’t imagine damaging somebody’s bathroom and not saying something to them, whether they’re a friend or a stranger. Though I suppose alcohol does some strange things.

So no, you should t have to tell adults to respect your house, but now you do.

My basement bathroom is lined with FRP paneling so it's simple to clean.

i have one and he is a semi sophisticated gentleman

We had a host who discovered, after a tournament, that someone had broken the seat and cover on his fancy Japanese toilet/bidet right off the hinges. How they did it? Who knows. Who did it? We never found out.

That particular host just told everyone that next time (I hope there’s never a next time) please give him the heads up at least, that it wouldn’t have been a big deal, but he didn’t want to have to discover it on his own. No one ever fessed up.

Eventually we just made light of it, we still occasionally have a good laugh about it, but everyone moved on.

Worst part (and a constant reminder when he hosts) is that even though he had it fixed the damn auto seat will never stay up for standing action. Has a mind of its own. Will open at the press of a button but will then start to drop and try to chop your manhood at the worst possible moment. You either have to sit to pee or try to hold it up with your knee. The whole thing has become a farce.

This is probably gonna to be one of those reverse PAHWM thread where OP reveals the twist that he actually peed on someone else’s wall (probably trying to drown a mosquito if I had to guess) and wondering if his subsequent ban was overkill by the host

Alright, it's already been determined that it was @CraigT78 (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/1042/)'s daughter. So the issue now is: should she be banned for what she did?

This is the best answer, with the exception that I would absolutely call out the incident specifically. Let there be no uncertainty regarding exactly what you are referring to.

This is what happened. I understand it was most likely an accident. Accidents happen. In the future, please let me know asap if there is an issue that needs to be attended to.

You had a bunch of new guys at this tournament and this doesn’t happen at cash games…

Was there any hair dye used? If yes, my daughter would be a probable suspect.

Me and 3-4 other guys hosted eight 30 person tournaments a year from 2002 - 2010. We stopped because people started treating our houses like a casino or business rather than a house.

I remember piss splatter and drippings all over my buddy's floor and I came out and said something to effect of “what type of scumbag piece of shit would piss on the floor”. No one admitted it but it didn’t happen the rest of the night again.

Someone once also stole an entire unopened case of beer we had on an outside porch keeping cold in the winter. Luckily the worse thing that happened at my place was cigarette butts all over the back lawn

Live action shot.

For the next round, line the whole bathroom with plastic sheeting and hang an absurdly oversized sign covered in arrows pointing at the toilet bowl.

Rely on your poker instincts to notice who appears the most mortified when people inevitably bring it up.

Was there hair dye involved?

You tell us.

know we all assume it's probably pee, but I don't know if it was vomit, a spilled drink, etc.

I was just about to exclaim, "why are there crutches in the shower?!"

Then it hit me — her injured foot...

This is everything.

I wound up repainting the bathroom the following morning.

Also — please tell me you applied Kilz or a comparable primer before putting on the new paint.

Builder grade paint …. That does not clean well . As opposed to regular paint that cleans right up in a spiffy ? Where does one get this paint ? Why does one get it ?

I was about to ask, "why are there crutches in the shower?!

Then I remembered her foot injury...

That's a step ladder

Thank God I moved my games to the garage and driveway for cigars mainly. Peeing at the end of the driveway. Haven't had anyone have to crap inside.....yet. I probably jinxed myself.

If my wife had seen it she would have lost her shit (and rightly so).

One player’s wife went off and shared his high school graduation photo from the bathroom when he was hosting. Not gonna lie, it was a bit creepy having him watch the whole thing :LOL: :laugh:

Honestly I don't understand how people fail to aim. It's a pistol fired multiple times a day for life. Lift the seat and aim for the middle like that squirtgun ga.e at the carnival. Anything else is ignorant.

I'd steam your wall and consider painting. At the next game I'd bluntly say...look someone did something to the wall in the bathroom, it's now painted Don't Ever do t again, or there will be issues. If you can't aim *%$@¥ (words) sit.

IWhen my daughter was young and I took her to a public washroom I would to call people who made a mess "pigs". While at a local thempark she was about 5, she said "Daddy, a pig peed on the seat in here.....and there he is (pointing her finger at a grown man. The goof actually challenged what my kid said....could only say well you've been called a pig by a 5yr old, how does that feel.

Jesus. Quite a bit of attention for a kink thread…

Builder grade paint …. That does not clean well . As opposed to regular paint that cleans right up in a spiffy ? Where does one get this paint ? Why does one get it ?

I've had similar. Builder's painters used nasty cheap paint that is easily damaged when wiping it. They also didn't use a primer on raw plaster before painting. Heard some painters dilute the paint which can result in similar.

Someone up thread mentioned good quality semi-gloss. That indeed cleans better without damage (with care).

When you walked in did you yell,

"Urea! I have found it!"

What would you do next with an established group?

Lock the bathroom and make them do their business outside.*

• Note: That’s what we do at my place anyway. Game is in my barn. People go out and piss into the edge of the woods. If someone needs to do more, they have to ask (embarrassing) and take a walk of shame with me back to the house (about 200 yards away). Everyone seems to remember to crap at home before the game now, or else is holding the #2 in. Which frankly gives me an edge, I think.

Nice house, and it’s the sole bathroom on the ground floor.

My great-grandfather was a very successful physician and even had a urinal in his home. Are you suggesting that my great-grandfather’s house wasn’t nice?

I have one, and he’s a semi-sophisticated gentleman.

I’m sitting here thinking, what the heck is a “semi-sophisticated gentleman”?

My great-grandfather was an extremely successful physician and even had a urinal installed in his home. Are you implying that my great-grandfather’s house wasn’t pleasant?

Provide proof that it was pleasant.

Note to self: If I ever build a dedicated poker house, include one of those fancy open-plan bathrooms with the toilet, shower and sink all in a single continuous tiled/concrete area that slopes to floor drains, so I can just hose the whole thing down.

Now that I think about it, some trailers have bathrooms like that... OK, I’ll buy an Airstream and park it outside my barn.

prove that it was nice

He’s been dead since 1983. It’ll be tough to get into the house, but I’ll try my hardest.

I like the idea of putting up a poster — the simplest and most fun way to handle it :D

Still host poker, just don’t permit urination. If they need to pee they have to go home and return.

(My phone autocorrected to “just don’t allow ruination” and I was like whoa, don’t we all want that?)

Do any players work at O’Reilly’s or Napa Auto Partys? Suspect them first.

All jokes aside, I’d put some better paint on the bathroom walls.

Get some Ben Moore. I’d keep it flat as you can touch it up vs having to paint the whole wall. Or go satin or egg shell which will be “cleanable” but not “touch-up-able”

If you host poker games. It just bound to happen again - lol.

Put this sign up so they get the hint

I no longer want to host

I don't want to host anymore

Kind of like turning full time pro player, right?

Have to love it so much you can get through the downsides.

/ No one has pissed everywhere for me yet.

I would circulate a message informing people that a concealed camera has been installed there.

Honestly, I can't fathom how people miss their shots. It's a pistol.

Some of us are carrying fire hoses.

I love the idea of putting up a poster — the simplest and most entertaining way to handle it :D

WARNING: May trigger performance anxiety when attempting to urinate.

I would say something to the whole group... and make sure you do it at a few events to make sure you cover everyone.

YOU are opening your home up to others. YOU are the host. YOU have every right to have expectations of how others treat you and your home. Period.

I used to have a sign posted, above the john: "The Inland Empire Poker League Aims to please! YOU aim too, please" A subtle reminder to pay attention, and that it will be noticed if someone doesnt.

Those Kleenex hand towels are pretty nice, except when someone tries to flush them. I no longer use them at my house. People try to flush them and they stop up the toilet and it overflows aka Windy Floody Blow Out.

I'll have to add a note on my next email. Thanks for the heads up.

I've experienced this too. Seriously, what is wrong with people?

Were you unaware? Apparently, once something is flushed it magically stops existing!

Yes, sometimes flushing fixes the problem. Sometimes it doesn’t. When I was a kid, my parents owned an old house and the main sewer line leaving the house had to be replaced because it wasn’t draining properly and kept backing up. They assumed the iron pipe was being crushed and invaded by a tree’s roots… which it was. But that alone wasn’t causing the backups. When they dug up the backyard and took the pipe out, the contractor tossed the removed section in front of everyone. Out popped a bra (along with several other adult items suggesting my parents believed they had enough kids). Apparently my mom had decided it was easier to flush a bra than to fish it out of the toilet.

Talking about toilet incidents, I think I might have a potential problem with one of my players — I'm not certain, but I do worry about my safety :oops:

Twice during a single session I discovered that this

had been altered to this

(I reverted it, of course)

That sort of behaviour (not mine! :whistle: :whistling:) feels dangerously close to psychotic :wtf:

I always recall this moment lol.... "YOU ain't keepin it real... YOU ain't representin..."

If they actually tried to clean it up, but the terrible paint on your walls prohibited them from doing so, it sounds like they did you a favor in the long run. Still annoying to deal with.

A few months ago I had one of my players blow up my bathroom, and maybe shit their pants? There was splatter all on the underside of the seat and they used the hand towel to clean themselves up with because it was soaking wet and smelled like shit. My wife was the one who found it and was not impressed. The towel got thrown out. I encourage everyone at my game to just go outside as I’ve got a big fenced backyard with a large gravel area and only use the inside bathroom for more urgent issues. Apparently this was a more urgent issue. I just wish they had let me know privately instead of leaving a shitty towel on the sink.

…it seems they actually did you a favor over the long term.

that’s a no from me, dog.

You wanted this messy fella to dump on your gravel??

You wanted this messy fella to dump on your gravel??

Haha, definitely not. I just didn’t want them to leave a shitty towel on the sink. Pretty sure it was an older guy, and embarrassing things happen. It’s part of the cost of hosting a home game, but like the OP, it would have been nice if they’d told me so I could deal with it instead of stumbling across it later.

Haha, certainly not. I just didn’t want them to leave a gross towel on the sink. I’m fairly sure it was an older guy, and embarrassing things occur. It’s part of the price of hosting a home game, but like the OP, it would have been helpful if they’d told me so I could have handled it instead of discovering it later.

At least he didn't try to flush the towel?

I absolutely do not want to host any longer.

More bathroom hijinx. Two games ago someone clearly used the toilet paper roll holder to help themselves get off the toilet and then jimmied it back in the wall.

We noticed it was loose, and wouldn't "tighten" with the set screws, so I took it apart and the wall anchors were both snapped off inside the wall. WTF.

It sucks when things like that happen, but you really should pull the host aside and tell them. Hiding it is worse than the mishap itself.

Well, we can eliminate @harrysallout (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/563/) from this one. His arms definitely can’t reach the paper roll holder while sitting on the toilet.

We noticed it was loose, and wouldn't "tighten" with the set screws, so I took it apart and the wall anchors were both snapped off inside the wall. WTF.

What the fuck is wrong with your friends?

Based on his experiences, I don’t think he has any.

This explains him at meetups SO much.

Find the heaviest drunkest player and that is the villain.

Trust me.

Identify the most heavily intoxicated player — that person is the villain.

Believe me.

but I didn't do it!

What the fuck is wrong with your friends?

Man be it’s all deliberate… like they text the next day and laugh about all the shit they fucked up

Man, it feels intentional... like they text the next day and joke about everything they messed up

So you mean like Dallas?

Who the hell uses a TP holder to help them get off a toilet?

So you mean it's similar to Dallas?

Who the fuck uses a tp holder to help them get off a toilet?

Agreed. I’m thinking someone needed leverage to help move a large shipment.

YOU CANT BAN ME!

Contemporary, but polished.

Who the hell uses a toilet-paper holder to assist them getting off a toilet?

Desperate times, my friend. I once thought about asking Harley to steady me going down the stairs at DCS V before abruptly blacking out on Courage’s living-room floor with a $900 stack downstairs, so pretty much anything can happen.

but I didn't do it!

Keep in mind, kids, there's always someone bigger and someone more intoxicated than you.

(I glance around nervously)

Well, most of the time there is….

Remember kids, there is always someone heavier and someone drunker out there.

(I look around anxiously)

Well, there usually is….

Sounds like me when I’m skiing

Time to plan a gathering exclusively for serious drinkers.

Or, you know, just a meetup.

That isn’t his bathroom. That’s a single rack of chips being readied for shipment. This is the stage immediately before he packs everything into an SFRE.

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Someone missed the floor by about the same distance and did not try to properly clean it (possibly let it dry?) as later that evening there was a spatter/corona that was already dry.

CASE REOPENED.

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Someone missed on the floor by a similar distance, and did not attempt to actually clean it (may have dried it?) as there was a spatter/corona later in the evening that was no longer wet.

Little f*cker.

Imagine if you just listened to Paul. Idiot.

Little f*cker.

You're begging for your own thread. Begging.

Originally, I thought this was going to go the direction of that scene from Hall Pass. Sucks you’re dealing with this again.

My home game keeps sounding better and better;)

What is missing on the floor? Some game @RocAFella1 (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/4351/) made up?

Pee. Its pee.

Urine. It’s urine.

Urine. It's urine.

If you're fortunate, it's urine.

If you’re lucky it’s pee.

Damn straight. Could have been the guy who nutted on the felt.

Can't get the rail licker to clean it up?

Rail wiper and card licker. You cant combine incidents like that. Its offensive.

Recruit better?

Hosting poker games. The gift that keeps on giving.

Spouse of @MrCatPants (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/3124/) - Honey, why are you installing a camera in the bathroom?

@MrCatPants (https://www.pokerchipforum.com/members/3124/) - I gotta crack this case! I'm THIS close!

Rail wiper and card licker. You can't lump incidents like that together. It's offensive.

But nothing else in this thread is?
