Day 2 - Hard Times Qualifier Results

[Gunn_Slinger]

Get over yourself 'Gunn_Slinger'... sounds like you're a bit sensitive. Thanks to Colin we can see current results without having to go to another site AND at the same time, hear crybabies like you whine about people trying to provide a good service... life is good....

Thanks Colin, keep it up...

Dude you need to chill, I thought he was there reporting the facts from Hard Times, I didn't know it was a direct cut and paste from the IPT Site, thought it was quite funny.
Nice on your 4th post on the board you could be so over the top. After u take your midol I'm sure you will feel better.
Have a pleasant day

Well I believe from experience that a lot readers only check here.

Also, readers come in later to search here for some progress of the coverage and discussion.

If no one wants to discuss the matches and there progress then fine, let the thread die...but often people want to discuss it and have an easy reference here.

That's why ...

Colin,

I have to side a bit on Gunn Slinger's point.

I think it would be better if you paraphrased parts of what is on the IPT website and then referred people to the IPT website for the total story.

After all the IPT people are posting the information there so that people will come to their website and read it there. Then people will also see how professionally the site is run. They will also read other information about the IPT there and perhaps go to the store and buy items that are listed.

And I am sure the sponsors want people to visit the website.

By pasting the whole story here you are actually getting the credit for the articles that should go to Sally from Inside Pool. Plus you are keeping people away from the website which I doubt is your intention.

When I log on the first place I go is to the IPT website. www.internationalpooltour.com Then read my e-mail and then come here or BD.

Last night Wu was eliminated by Kiamco of philippines.Wu is a good sport and took the elimination from the tournament in a sportive manner.

Hi Jake,
I get your point.
I'm certainly not trying to claim any credit for the IPT updates. I have in the past given the links, but was rushing a little...but good point.

As you know, to see the reports as soon as they come in, you have to refresh regularly. As I caught a couple early, I thought those other impatient railbirds like myself might want to know asap. And they're usually refreshing here more often for new posts.

Sometimes a new report goes up on that site and no one mentions it here for an hour or so.

Anyway, will try to include more links
Colin

My apologies Mrs. G. It sounded to me [maybe not everyone else] that you were being a bit 'over the top' your own self by complaining about Colin's attempt to keep the folks here at the forum up to date on these qualifiers... especially, ending your comment with the 'LOL'...

In the future, I'll try to keep in check a bit more and take my Midol before I post... it's tough getting to be a fogey... guess it's time for me to slow down a bit and try some One Pocket instead of 9 Ball

It's too bad Wu was eliminated, but a player of his calibre will make it on the IPT it's only a matter of time. It appears Ortmann is on his game, the equipment being used really allows him to utilize the tools of his game (brute aggression ) and he has to be feeling good coming into today. Eric Hjorliefson of Winnipeg is a player I would definitely look out for one west side of the board, he's already shown what kind of a player he is and he's also very young still, a good darkhorse pick. GO ORTMANN!

It's Ortmann vs Orcullo for a tour card! BTW, remember what I said about Eric Hjorliefson
