I can't imagine anyone having a go at you for your gaming etiquette, you are always a fun bloke to play against.

They might have a go at you for your barely legible posts, bad breath, and rancid smell. But not your gaming etiquette, not at all mate. ;)

Thanks for the comments about the show. It is often hard to take into account international discussions as well when talking about things like etiquette.

I received an email from a couple contacts at Forge World shortly after Episode 33 released and I was told by them that some of what we mentioned (shaking hands, etc.) is just considered "status quo" for folks in England. In fact if they didn't do those kind of things it would be considered a sleight.

In the US, at least in this part of the country, it is significantly different I think. A handshake is typically used when meeting someone for the first time or concluding a formal deal. However, it was a really interesting discussion to have. I hope you enjoyed the show!
