AzBilliards.com Members Choice 2014

1) Biebs :shrug: I don't know I just like the guy.
2) Blue Hog Rider "You're my boy Blue"
3) 8 pack


There are so many great posters though that this really needs categories.

Agreed lol. I also wanted to vote for Dr. Dave, Cleary, pretty much anyone that has shared old road player stories. Maybe even Rhea for the entertainment value. There are so many great posters it's hard to choose 3.
 
1. At Large - amazing stats and info. A ton of work goes into his posts.
2. Sjm - in-depth insight and first hand knowledge of all pool related topics
3. Jay Helfert- our ticket to the inside scoop on dramatic events such as us open.
 
tough call

My first thoughts were Smorgass Bored, Hemicudas and OldHasBeen. Much loved and great posters all and it has been years since any of them said a bad word about anybody. Bandito, I believe was his board name,(Edwin Reyes) fits in that group as do several more!


1. Terry Ardeno, AZB needs you my friend!

2. Blackjack, likewise a very valuable contributor when he cares to.

3. Three is a several dozen way split. JoeyA, Mike Long, JAM, SJD, all of the guys and gals that can tell the old tales with an "I was there" authenticy. Wouldn't it be great to get Keith to talking instead of his rare posts?

After a little thought I am going to vote for another much missed member, Catpool9, David Harcrow.

My honorable mention list would run to dozens and I also think BlueHogRider deserves to be ranked high. SJM is a perennial great and classy poster. Another day I could easily pick a totally different three people and the three listed could fall in any order although I miss Terry more than any living poster I can think of at the moment.

A top ten or top twenty list would still leave some people out. We have a lot of great posters on AZB, just on the main forum. We also have members that only post on a subforum or two that are great.

A special shout out for Mr Wilson. Easy to forget his sense of humor and fun participation in threads and forums while he is wrestling with the thankless job of moderator. I hope the new group moderator thing takes some load off of him and lets him just enjoy the fun side of AZB more. He should have been in my ranked members as should have been JAM, JoeyA, and many more. Three votes just doesn't begin to recognize all the people I would like to.

1. SJM - For always providing an honest outlook on events and not adding to drama
2. Jay - Would have been number 1 had he landed a blow against Barry at the US Open
3. Rhea - Just to get him on the board

I advised any one who would listen that i would decline the award, hence the reason my name is missing from all these posts.:)
 
1. SakuJack - shuts the self-aggrandising bullshitters up without losing his cool.

2. Pidge - great info on how to cue a ball, threads that were criminally overlooked. Americans! :rolleyes:

3. John and Lou. Both hugely entertaining, one intentionally, the other less so.
 
3 is a tough one. I have many favorites. When we do this sort of thing, I find it hard to leave people out. I will try later.

But, I agree with Hubert. I miss Terry Ardeno and David Harcrow. David always had the best stories.

David used to send me stories, pictures, news paper articles etc to my email.

I miss getting those. I hope that he is ok.
 
Pidge - I've probably learned more from this guy about how to play than anyone else.

AtLarge - I'm a stats geek so his posts are gold to me. Even his non-stats posts are pretty solid.

Jay Helfert - Great stories and does a lot for the pool community.
 
You've still got another 2 votes Lou! My telepathic skills are coming into play a little...2nd Timothy Rose and 3rd ?

You would've been my 4th choice btw, with John in 5th. That John v Lou thread was quite amazing.


Gracias and you're right. My other two...

SJD and The Thaiger.

SJD is a funny, knowledgable HOF guy that speaks his mind and dan't take no crappola from no one. Thaiger was completely and totally politically incorrect and I loved that. Too many guys here just want to be PC and suck up. I never want to be part of that club.

Bless you, Ron.

hope I'm the former :-o
 
1. AtLarge - The Efren Reyes of pool stats!
2. Jay Helfert - Always looking forward to more stories.
3. Pidge - Posts on snooker fundamentals are awesome. I don't think enough people realize the value in what he's sharing.
 
This is a no brainer for me, lady's first.
1. Jam
2. ShootingArts
3. sjm

I have been able to hang out and shoot pool with two of these three and will meet the third one day!
