Fred, it's the USAPL league, and they actually are using Fargo rating now, but I have not played a league match in a long time. I'm guessing they imported my rating into the Fargo system same as everyone else in the league, new or old, and it just ended up converting.

Not quite true. We didn't import the ratings. We imported the raw game data and computed ratings. Yes you had tons of older Billiard Cafe stuff --plus, you played at Crow's Nest in NH a few months ago.


From playing with you, I would not play you even LOL, so if I go by the ratings of the people I can beat, and the fact that you would beat me most of the time, if I am in the 570-580 range you would be in the 600s, especially seeing some of the other players I see in the 600s. I'm actually a but surprised by how high some of the players are and that some others are lower. For example April Larson is lower than some other junior girl players, and she has a stronger game than they do.

I was looking around some of the lists for names I know and how I have seen them play in person and on streams, and I know I would have an even game with quite a few people in the 600 range.

I think Freddie plays about 630 speed.

And April is # 15 female in the USA --of any age.

Well straight from the horses mouth so to say :smile:

I think April plays better than Taylor or Briana, who are higher than her, although they are all close in the ratings. At SBE two years ago I saw her demolish a player in the womens open event that was probably 2-3 times her age, plus all the times I saw her play at Junior Nationals. Outside of the couple of top girls we have from our local area ofcourse, April is my favorite junior female player. She has a good heart and does not have the attitude many of the top junior players end up with.

One thing I don't see on the page, how do you get your overall rank if you are outside of the top 100?

On another note, the video that shows the ratings based on other scales is off I think by quite a bit https://youtu.be/_unbV1pQP9w?t=203

The ABCD ratings need to shift to the right a bit, and the APA ratings to the left. You can be a B and B+ player and be an APA 6 or 7 in 9 ball, the graphic shows an APA 6 as an A which is way off. No-one also would call me an A player, but my Fargo rating matched on that chart places me there, and the players I play against and usually beat that are ranked higher are also not A players.

Lesh, I tend to pay attention to your posts.....they tend to be knowledgeable and sometimes
humorous....and I suspect you play pool at a pretty high level.

Soooo....what's with the bragging about the Big Gs?.....:scratchhead:
....if a Gandy was a car...it would be a Lada

I like the Gandy tables. I'd rather have some tight GC 3's, but I try to love what I got. They play tough. Makes anything else seem like a holiday. Besides, I've been seen drifting around dirt roads in a 76 Grenada against all comers once upon a time.

Love the one you're with,

Or as my pool-playing friend Johnny from Texas would say to me when I played really bad position, "You brung it, you dance with it."

SBE action tables. I'm sure that one of us will end up playing someone else from the boards. I have not played at those, but one of my old team-mates from the TAP leauge said he made some money on them, I am probably half a level better than him so I think I'll head to those while my son is playing in the junior event.

I'll see you there. I spend a good amount of time on them every year. Lots of fun and as expensive as you want it to be. Can play 10 dollar a rack 9 ball for 4 days straight. With the exception of the barbox, its one of the best things for your game.

He does play strong, a 9 pack playing 8 ball is no joke.
