DMMHT video session

[Hal]

I have successfully uploaded a partial session of the DMMHT. My score was 20-16-20 and then I fell a part. I had to split the video in half in order to upload it. Otherwise it's unedited. Let me know if there are any problems or if it's out of sequence.

Hal,
I played the first vid file - the first rack you scored 8 points. Was this your "warmup" rack? If not you are in a heap of trouble (as we will all have to chip in for some remedial math tutoring for you).

[Williebetmore]

Hal,
In the second rack you score 5.

Have you taken scoring lessons from breakup?????

[Williebetmore]

Hal,
Only 4 balls in the 3rd rack on the first vid file.

In the second vid file, I'm counting 4 balls in the first rack.

Are things somehow out of sequence?

Uh oh, could this be the beginning of another scandal that will rock the pool world?

Inquiring minds want to know.:rolleyes:

I think I see a major problem here ... there should be a dress code for men in the Drivermaker ! Playing in your underwear with bare feet should be outlawed for men, especially if the camera is rolling :eek: It might be OK for the women (I'd need to see some footage of this to be sure), but it ain't no good for you Hal :D

The scoring should be consistent with session #4 starting with rack #4. I started off with 20-16-20-5. I thought I was going to have a great session so I set up the camera.

OK. I counted my scores. Evidentally I had a 5 already recorded so the scoring in the videos should be 8-6-4-5-20-0. Correct?

(I counted a 6 in the second rack Willie.)

The Canadian women really dig it.

Dave,
Yes, you bring up a very important and meaningful issue. I will have to discuss it with my Co-Director; but I am weighing in on the side of making the DMMHT clothing optional. Of course, there may be penalties assessed (Purdman) or bonuses given (JB) but our contestant's MUST have their freedom. Soldiers are dying every day so that Hal may have the freedom to flaunt his masculinity; it's the American Way. He makes me proud to be an American.

I watched the videos and saw nothing wrong with the way Hal scored it. In fact if he hadn't been walking around the table, blantently sharkin his ass, he would have scored much higher.
I know this because my opponet did the same damn thing.
BTW clothing should be optional, or else I need a do over.

As you can see, I just miss a lot of shots. I guess I get in a hurry when I see a pattern and often take the shot for granted. Even when I scored a 20, I screwed up the position on the ball in side. I intended to come around two rails and shoot it in the side pocket. I ended up on the 50 yard line and had to shoot it in the corner.

OK, but don't put that on the recruitment posters, I'd hate to see an army filled with soldiers who want to fight for Hal's flaunting :eek:

Dave, who can't play in underwear and bare feet because essential bits of body might freeze or otherwise disappear ... brrrrrrrrrr

Yes Willie I do agree The DMMHT should be clothing optional. This however is a bit of a grey area, but as with any gray area points of reference are required. Kudos to Hal for shamelessly stepping up and pinning one end of the scale. Hopefully someone else will take the ball and begin to define the other end of the scale.

[supergreenman]

Taste and common decency aside, I have to agree with Dave, it would be my personal preference to be fully clothed while playing the DMT. This is a performance issue, one can not give %110 if one is cold and people at the pool hall are staring at ones naughty bits.

:cool:

[Hal]

For the record, they are regular shorts. Not underwear. As for playing with shoes on, well that just aint gonna happen. :D Not here in Tennessee anyway. :D

OK, never mind ... but just try that around here and we'll have to start calling you "half-foot Hal". Good video regardless of the attire !

Well, for the record, I think it was really cool of you to do this brother! Thanks. :cool:
