Although there is no association with the Derby City Classic productions and organizers, the Louie Roberts Award will continue.
As has been previously, the Award will be voted on by members of the internet forum community, mainly AZBilliards and OnePocket.org, that attend the event. They can email LouieRobertsAE@gmail.com after they return home from the event to cast their votes. Just say as many or as few people you think deserve consideration (like Hall of Fame voting).
Additionally, non-forum members that are at the event can give their votes directly to me at the event.
Although the Committee still has to work out the details, the Award is still going to the person whom attendees deem to entertain the most in the non-tournament environment.
The biggest change this year: there is no affiliation between the Louie Roberts Award and the Derby City Classic. This is wholly a non-DCC sponsored award.
Thank you,

Who Gets to Vote:

• Other action aficionados that might not frequent forums
Who is Eligible for the Award:
• Anyone who the voter deems worthy of the award based on what the voter feels is exciting and entertaining in the non-tournament settings
• Whatever that means to the voter
• The award doesn’t have to go to a player: a player, backer, sweater, rail bird, etc. can win
• They do not have to be in any tournament
• No previous winner can repeat
Where and How to Vote:
Seek me out at the Derby City Classic ( I arrive Tuesday Jan 27th for the remainder of the week). I will log your votes immediately.
or
For those who cannot find me for some reason at the DCC – email your vote(s) when you get back home to:
LouieRobertsAE@gmail.com (Please be sure to write your Forum Name and when you attended the Derby City Classic)
Send (or tell) as many names as you want. This would be similar to Hall of Fame balloting. For example, if you can't decide whether one guy or another should get your vote, send both if you want. If you think five people deserve to be mentioned, send five names.
Voting Closing and Announcement
Voting Will Close on Sunday Feb 1st at Midnight
The committee will make an announcement as soon possible, targeting within a day of the end of the event. That should give everyone enough time to either give me their votes at the Derby or send me an email when they leave. If you’re planning a one week drive home, you might want to seek me out.
Any questions, concerns or clarifications, please email to
LouieRobertsAE@gmail.com
