I know what you mean, when I lived in a rainforest area, not too many games were ever finished.
Dutch idiot goes beserk
HAHAHAHA!!! I'm so sorry that you had to admit that amongst the Forum, but it's the first step in the Healing Process...Also, I am the brother who always beat his younger brother at Chess...So I cannot empathize..! But great share! I'm quite familair with the "earthquake" zone as well...But more often we had "tornadoes" that would just end up wiping out the board...That is because I couldn't beat my Grandpa...
Intollerable action of course. But what beside loosing made this guy going berserk ? Loosing alone cannot be the only reason for his outreagous behaviour, I presume.
Force the guy to listen to jokes for a year by myself and Andyclifton. There can be no greater punishment.

Truer words have never been spoken
There's an old saying, never piss off a chess player.
Confucius say : never piss off icy rooftop

Obvious the guy must have been a member of Chess.com and found out the guy was the person giving him a hard time here. An decided to act on his opportunity ........
I read another article that made me feel sorry for the man who hitted. Ofcourse no one should hit.. but the pepetrator appearantly had mental issues.
BERKEL-ENSCHOT - A 35-year-old chess player from Eindhoven Saturday ended up in hospital after he was assaulted by his opponent. The perpetrator, a 27-year old man from Tilburg, was accused of unsportsmanlike conduct, where the victim wanted to complain to the stewards, police said. The victim was several times with a glass on his head beaten. He was hospitalized for observation.
The men got into a fight during their party in a chess tournament in Berkel-Enschot. The perpetrator accused the victim of unsportsmanlike conduct during the game. The arbiter judged that the party just to continue. Just after the party so the man from Son en Breugel was won, flipped his opponent. The Tilburger jumped into his neck and hit him several times with a glass.
Men disassembled
Other participants took the men apart. The victim has been unconscious for some time. The perpetrator fled. The chess tournament in hotel Druiventros is a half hour interruption occurred. Police and an ambulance were warned.
The organization of the tournament was shocked by the incident. She announced that the offender is no longer welcome at the next edition of the tournament.
sorry for google translate..
A 27-year-old man has a blitz tournament in Berkel-Enschot his opponent a concussion beaten. That report Omroep Brabant and the Brabants Dagblad.
The perpetrator was derived from Tilburg late back after a break and his opponent from Eindhoven had - according to the rules - the chess clock is already started.
The organization then decided the party to start again, to the dissatisfaction of the victim. When the Tilburger the party lost, he went berserk. With a glass hit his opponent on the head. The victim was taken to hospital for observation.
"Something I've never experienced. That you expect at a football game, not chess competitions, "said organizer French Deckers The Old Tower of chess against the Brabants Dagblad. "We have the police called. This man is excluded from our future tournaments. But how the union agreed to going I do not know, because we do not have. "
According to the newspaper, the police said the offender will hear. Broadcasting Brabant reports that the man was a "mild mental handicap 'has.
Who won the tournament? Anyone got the pgn to share?
Yes, I too would love to play through that game. Obviously he was using some attack variation of an opening line.
OK, my question is answered: I mild handicapped man and therefore not able to accept a normal disciplinary action against him.
Excluding him for ever from chess events to protect other participants against an unforeseen beating by him, may be appropriate. But convict him instead to listen to the jokes of linuxblu1 and AndyClifton is of course inhuman and extremely harsh.
Just watched the video posted by waffllemaster very informative. Plus I was a geography major for two semesters so it peeked some interest.
This reminds me of a story I've heard here a couple of times about someone playing in the 1974 Canadian Open in Montreal.
Basically,
On a board near his, one of the players blundered his Queen away quite early in the game. He resigned immediately, stopped the clock and left the playing hall.
His opponent. who won, signed the score-sheets, spent a few minutes looking at the on-going games on nearby boards, and then headed for the exit.
As he reached the door...
his opponent jumped out from behind a big potted plant, kicked him in the nuts, and ran away!
The police came to the scene, spent a few minutes interviewing the player who got kicked and the tournament organizers, and then they settled down to... wait.
Sure enough, as the time for the next round approached, the attacker returned to the playing hall for his next-round game. He was arrested and dragged off by the police.
Some people's kids. 
Plus, where do I check out these punishing jokes of linuxblu1 and AndyClifton. I could use them perhaps when I need to inlict pain on my older brother for beating me at chess. I do feel better having cleared that up DarthMasterguns.
Now speaking of handicaps . . . Knight odds from my brother . . . we all agree it is a slap in the face.
I'll bring the tar. But first, what weighs more? A pound of tar or a pound of feathers?
If you drop a tar and feathered person off a 50 story building, what hits first (forget the "in a vacuum" part) . . .
What hits first . . . for me anyway . . . is this, "SH!T, I should not have pushed him!"

To the original post. Here in the states attacking someone with a glass will give you some time behind bars and anger management classes.
