When I am running any game at a convention or at the gaming club I
almost
always set down my ground rules about such things before play begins and
that I don't like rules lawyers or complainers and that it does not
matter
if you win or lose but just that you have fun.

My little speech is almost always taken to heart since I am a very large
fellow of almost 400lbs and could squash any of the little miscreants
anyways.
