Are there any guidelines for what tournament hosts can say in tournament chat during the event?
today i played in one where the host was typing out chapters of the bible verbatim - i don't just mean the odd quotation or whatever - this was as much of it as he could get through in 40 minutes.
is this some kind of cultural thing? i know americans tend to be rather keen on their religion, but this seemed like a little too much.

I think the guidelines are no different from bbo`s terms and conditions (profanities and racially/politically charged statements are out)
tds moonlight as poetry reciters, orators, djs. The other day one was playing Right said fred's "I'm too sexy", i kept wondering if he was dressed in thights and dancing to it.
Think o it this way, these folks give up their time to be there tding for you. it is a thankless job.
let them have their minutes of fame.

If this was the host's own game, then I'm sure many of us would like to avoid him.
If this was a club's game, you should report the incident to the club; hopefully they will stop giving him a platform.
PS: I don't think he was American :-)
