@wizards_magic Since this has a lot of eyes I'd like to remind everyone intentional misgendering is a USC Major - match loss. And it upgrades to "get the hell out of my tournament" REALLY easily. So, if you're considering being an ass, check yourself. And if it happens to you, call a judge.

If you're sitting near someone who's being harassed by their opponent that's not okay. If you don't feel comfortable speaking up you can call a judge, ask to talk away from the table, and explain what's going on to them. But either way this shit has to stop.
