Is there any special effect for these? Lose 2 points of tolerance instead of 1?
Also, how are they typically RPed? Basic Rudeness? Something else?

Re: Eyes during encounters
No extra effect, but it's always amusing for players to go the extra mile to work the Sauron in. To wit:Angelalex242 wrote:Is there any special effect for these? Lose 2 points of tolerance instead of 1?

I've been thinking about awarding an AP, as well as a -1 to Tolerance, but only for that level of effort.Rocmistro, elsewhere, wrote:Huff, upon seeing the Wizard and a Lord of the Woodman's hall, stood as quickly and sincerely as he could in a robust effort to show the proper respect of men fitting their rank.
What he only succeeded in doing, however, was smashing his head into one of Radagast's low wooden rafters. He cried out with a yelp, blacking out for a moment, and then his lumbering form went crashing into Radagast's table. Cheese and fruit and the like launched forth in every direction, and Lord Ingomer was not spared a dollop of cream to adorn his temples before Huff's cacophany had ceased.
When he finally came to, the last thing he remembered was walking through a blessed garden where wedges of brie cheese grew on trees, ripe for the picking.

Re: Eyes during encounters
Depends on the encounter, really. This has been discussed quite a bit earlier on previous threads, James Brown gave us some suggestions about how to 'fix' a stuff-up during encounters - see my Fan Supplement in my Resources Page for it, but IIRC he suggested things like 'using Awe to remedy a Courtesy blunder' etc.
But for the LM the key question to ask is: what is the minimum the PC's need to obtain from this Encounter? Then they get that, irrespective of the results of the die roll. For example, one time my party rolled an Eye when meeting Lord Borathor of Umbar for the first time, so that meant they got thrown into prison for a night! But some of them were still able to meet with the Lord the following day, because it was important for the plot.
