Virtual Bar Billiards Open

[NigelS]

I am sure some of us are missing the bar billiards by now!

Saw the virtual F1 Grand Prix the other night and thought why not have a virtual bar billiards open.

What I will do is grade players so the better graded players have more chance of winning against lower graded players - I will do these grades in secret.

Then I will do the draw and results will be based on probability and random numbers and I will announce a set of results each day.

If you want yourself in the draw put your name down on here, I will then fill in the rest of the field with some greats and not so greats of the game.

No entry fee....you dont even have to leave your house to be in it!

Think Matt was refering to you as 4th best scorer.....I was happy with 21

[NigelS]

Thanks for the interest guys, so some of you are missing the bar billiards as much as me...

I will close entries on Friday, but will then make up the field with the top so many in the rankings plus a few greats from the past...

[bigjimsilverfox]

Ok Nige stick me down

You are correct captain, Bob you were lucky to get 4th so be happy with that fella. If anyone disagrees with the scorers rankings (or wishes to be added) please let me know and I will do some "secret gradings" which will have me at number 1
