Recently i have started to play this game again, some people may recognise the username from the past, if not they may notice the others i have used :D

i have been surverying a lot of the highest ranked players in UK 8 ball and am rather dissapointed with the outcome, i have noticed how they have gained their ranking, its not impressive by the least and nowadays the rankings dont even show how capable somebody is because they have played constant 600s and low 700s to get that rateing, and not been playing 800s where there is more skill involved to win.

i have asked on a few occasions for games and just been shoo'ed off for many reasons, yet they say they will play me later, this doesn't end up happening, so im calling out this challange :D

i use to do this back in my hayday ... and challange the likes of Steven_up, Lars, Squeezy :D
the list goes on.... and on ....

and we ended up playing 1st to 5 or 10 ranked... no matter what the outcome =)


so im calling out the TOP ranked UK players for a 1st to 5 or 10, there is no reason to shoo me off because of my ranking.... there is only around 5 people who can say theirs is higher than mine at the moment.




overall i just want to be shown that there is still quality players out there who play the best and not just hover up the top by beating the lowest to obtain that spot.


p.s. Thank you pool_life for suggesting to make this thread :D


i hope to hear from The top 10 uk soon :D


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Kirk .. i think your getting the rong idea of this challange ,

the point im making is that i want the top 10 uk rankers to play me lol

Don't turn this into a name and shame thread. Don't post screen shots of chat or try to use this thread to bully people into playing you.

People are at the top because they deserve to be under the current ranking rules!

Thanks.

i doubt you will get onua to play you a first to 5 tbh.

How about we quit with the naming, shaming, and making assumptions.

Let the Top players decide if and when they will play!

Great idea, Danny!

good idea but i don't see any name and shaming

SHHHHHHH


AND OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my post got edited .. i did not name and shame ... i stated a point ... that the person involved would not play me

yet he would go off to play a 600 ranker after ...

=(

an1h0ny,

Wow, did you really just say "we are all entitled to freedom of speech" and then contradict yourself by telling me "to keep my opinions to myself"?? :S
Interesting. And yes, we are entitled to our opinions but I have learned that we must also abide by the rules. I am not trying to sound condscending (not sure why you said I act as if I am better and am a suck-up) at all as I have been conversating with the author of this thread for the last hour. He is very much aware that I feel that this a great idea as I previously posted.

I apologize for any misunderstanding.

Regards,
SP25

I love how you edited your (ENTIRE) post, an1h0ny. :S

*shakes head* Clever.

Anyways back on topic, it would also be nice if someone started a similiar challenge in other areas such a Straight as well.

Here Here Dan.

Why dont you ask in your next post for only players who wish to challenge you to leave their name and when they will be able to play?

Some good players id like to see play ya..

Squeezy

Is a good idea to lay down a challenge, hopefully we can see some top quality games from the thread, just keep it all in good humour, would be silly for someone to get upset over it
