What are the challenge rules. Do you have to live in the state/prov. to challenge. I want to play someone and offered an AZKing Canada cause no one played here yet. That was a no go, I offered Ontario... said I don't live there.

It's the first thread here... Although I don't know how it breaks down in the great white north. GL.

Having an AzBKing of Canada makes very little sense (especially without first having Kings of each Province). Whoever wins the title first would likely keep the title for eternity, as no challenger could afford to fly to challenge the title holder....especially if they lived in Vancouver, Halifax, or even Nunavut. If this were the case, only the wealthy players could afford to take part in AzBKings.

The same thing applies to living in the Province that you play in. If you were to win the Ontario title, that means that every time someone challenged you, you'd have to fly to Ontario to play them. It just isn't practical.

Really, up here the first thread is 10 pages of challenges, standings etc... I am looking for only rules.


nathandumoulin... If we played and I won, a challenge wouldn't go long before I could take it. Like I said, my wife is from there and we will be visiting often. I don't think a challenge would go any longer than if someone from Thunder Bay won and got challenged by a player in Toronto. Canada, geographically, isn't good for this type of thing. We couldn't even keep a tour going, a challenge will be next to impossible.

I will try to stop in Ottawa and we can play 8, 9, and 10 ball for $50 each. If you win, call it AZKing. If I win, I will continue on my travels.

Since when has Royalty been synonymous with practicality?! SheeesH!:rolleyes::wink:
