i'm sorry but i don't think we should be going down the route of us having different ones to each other even if they are the official pictures - it will look tatty , i think we should be going with the majority or stay with the ones we have up and scrap the idea of a new picture altogether

Great example set to his clan by an "experienced" clan member and captian

Re those trial games mentioned above - I will leave it up to each of you to decide whether you want to play the game or not. Personally I dont think its necessary and will have little added value when it comes to making any decision on formats. If the three selected are the three choices I am capable of working out which is best of those without having to play a game
If anyone not chosen in the original eight fancies a game in my place then feel free to contact mich to arrange to play.

captain?
Emma you dont need trial games to decide this - there are people who are perfectly capable of looking at the pros and cons of each variation and deciding which suits best.
And just as an aside - I had no input into which 8 players were chosen and I, personally, am in Court all week so wont be on here much - hence why I said if anyone else wanted to play mich they were welcome to.
I am sure if the other 11 members think its a bad example, and poor captiancy, they will let me know - they arent normally shy.

As far as I know the plan is for the season to start on Sunday. If any of you are aware that you arent going to be available during the first two weeks, or dont wish to play for any reason, please let me know before Saturday.
Cheers Piggies
And I included your clan because you were one of the people who wanted a new format.....plenty of people dont, Im only trialling these at all because of a couple of people who are insistent that the current format doesnt work.
Thanks for your support, whilst it might be obvious to you which is the best format, plenty of people have different ideas to you and think another format is obvious.....hence a trial where everyone gets their say.
Thought a bit more of you than that Chris

The current format over the whole season could be improved upon - I believe that as do others - I dont believe trialling over one game will make any difference at all - all the games are exactly the same format as before (race to 3, 3 and 4) nobody taking part will notice any tangible difference there - with the exception of the one including straight which most have stated they dont want already.
You have tournament committees who evaluate information, consider options and the pros and cons and then make changes to improve things. Those improvements do not always come at once, they can take a while.
That is my opinion on the trial. Additionally you have selected 8 players that I dont know whether they are available or not. Rogan appears to be, I am not. I cant chase people to play when I didnt even know if they were, or were not, available to play in the first place.
Its not a question of support - if you ask for any help or advice you will get it immediately. If you had asked whether I thought this was the right way to go and whether I wanted my team to take part in it I would have given you a straight answer and explained that answer. You could then have accepted it or disregarded it. Showing your disappointment on here is also not what I might have expected from you either.

Why say what you dont believe? I'm just finished my game as a member of the clan league I believe it's our duty to try to get a hands on idea of how the formats could work out.
Fairly petty IMO

Now that this thread has aired out....
I'm available to play late this week, if anyone needs to forfeit their games.

thanks potty for the input but as you aren't part of this team i hardly think it's your place to be telling katie who she can sub
as chris has already said he wont be on much this week due to work commitments i think it would be a better idea if katie played mich , as trigger has messaged chris to explain his absence all we can do is wait for his return and hope it's in time .

Almost the same scoring system as now, only difference is the points are decided by the difference, ie a 10-5 win gets 5 points, a 8-6 win gets two points. Race to 4 at 9ball and race to 3 at the 8ball games
please message your opponent to arrange your games as the dead line is saturday

I chose the teams jo as i assumed trigger would be a suitable player to do trial as hes regular user but seeing as he's absent i simply pointed this out for one of u guys to decide if katie could swap to play it instead.
08:16 Tue 21 Jul 09 (BST) [Link]
yeh and i appreciate that potty but trigger has reasons for not being here at the minute and as he could be back any time , chris has already stated he wont be on much this week so it makes much more sense for katie to play mich instead
