az rating? see jerry stuckart
I wonder if there is a way to get re tested and get a lower rating? I have not been playing and I feel I am getting a bad deal as an 8. I thing 6 may be more like it.
 
lol

I have seen CooCoo before but he wasn't playing. Just lurking. I must live in a bubble I thought the economy was only affecting pool.

Back on topic. Later CoCo.

I think you have selective memory, as you have seen me play, and take a Second, and a Third at Kobly's on Sunday. When Tracy was TD!
 
I can do a rating analysis on you if you wish. But getting lowered is extremely hard. Once you have the knowledge of a higher rating you never lose that. Yes, you may drop down for a little while after no practice, but you are capable of playing at that speed still.

The tourney isn't capped yet. And having an alternate would be a good idea. You know how pool players can be. Worst case, I might have to jump in. I'm pretty much an 8 player myself. :D

I'll send Travis a message.

Mark, I'll PM you Mike O'Hara's number at Sweet Tooth. Not sure what he is interested in doing as of yet, as he is just trying to get his room open.

Thanks, for the info. I agree with you on getting lowered, I think is isn't right now I think about it. Knowing my luck I will play out of my skin and that could cause a problem with other players. Then again if I play the other players may petition you to lower my rating as it may look like I have never played before too. I will stay where I am at and just practice sometime. I really hope I can make it.

I was hoping that you would show me a thing or two kinda like a refresher course. I am sure there is nothing a pro can can me that you can't. What you talking about blonde hair?
I tell you what happened a few months ago though that may be why you ask. My daughtr was putting some electric blue streaks in her hair and asked if she could do mine. I said sure as I was going to take a shower later that night and it would wash out. Well it was permanent hair color and I looked like a total dumbass. So my wife went and got some blonde color to cover the blue and that turned out to be more of an orange color. Well it has grown out a bit and faded a little but if you have sen a pic of me from the past few months you could be mistaken that I am blonde.

LMAO I really had no idea about any of that. I was just trying to get you to say NO so you would owe me $5. :D:D:D Great story though.

The only thing I can show you is how to run 7 balls and leave the last two on the table :) Your other teachers/friends most likely can show you how to avoid that :)

Jerry are you saying if a Player had a Stroke that gave him physical limitation, or other Health conditions that prevented him from playing at "Current Rating Speed" they would not be lowered because they had KNOWLEDGE, even thought they were not Physically Capable of using or performing what they knew????????

Wonder what would happen to Arizona Pool if the Current Rating system disappeared TOMORROW, and there was NO RATING SYSTEM.

I am sure there are exceptions.

BINGO.

One gentleman I know who underwent Cardio Vascular Surgery, and shall we saw "DON'T Play 9 Speed No More, was a "9" before the surgury, was lowered to an "8".

Also I understand you MARK are allowed to go to the Rating Committee Meeting anytime you want, and ask the Committee to lower you, and that state your CASE why you think you should be lowered. Than the Committee vote on your request.
