At this time i surmise fargo ratings are just associated with bcapl and usapl to my knowledge. Now my intenetion is not to bqsh bcapl or usapl players although it may seem that way.....its just my observation of threads on here questioning /complaining about peoples handicaps ...mainly bcapl.
Just about every time league is mentioned on here you get a lot of people bashing apa for the supposed handicapping problemand say join bcapl...the league for serious players and yet there are numerous posts on here comeplaining about their handicaps in bcapl.
I guess i am different than most pool players....i was offended when i found out i was asigned a lower starter rating than 2 other apa 5' s were that also joined usapl at the same time i did. I knew i was better than either one of them and told the lo as much. He did not agree but i quickly proved him wrong.
I happen to like fargo but i have seen with my own eyes that it can be manipulated also. With me being an honest apa 5 there should be no way i have a higher rating than an apa 7/9. Not complaining at all... Just pointing out some people will manipulate their cap when given the oportunity.
