How can I find out my Fargo?

I don't play in any tournaments that involve this scoring system and have been asked what my rating is. Someone showed me the app where you can play one another for scores.

The post above is not incorrect, but if you don't have statistics in there, you are not in there.

I guess you're only option would be too find people you play even with and extrapolate.

You will have to play the 9 ball ghost three races to 7.

The 8 ball pro ghost 3 races to 7

A few rounds of bowlliards (I think they call it) and some 14.1 high run attempts.

Do all this in peace and comfort first. And then repeat each task with Garzar standing directly in your line of sight at all times, aggressively chalking his cue and providing derogatory color commentary. Record all this obviously then post it in the 2025 ghost challenge thread. You should have a fairly accurate rating within 1-3 days.
 
If you're not in Fargo, but have ratings in other handicap systems then this chart by Dr. Dave could be useful. Also, you have played people with known Fargo ratings?

I think the app is called salotto. Never used it but to my knowledge you can play Fargo rated matches with players using it

101.🤣
 
It takes quite a few games to get your actual Fargo rating. In the short term play someone that has a Fargo rating and see how far you play against them.

That BU chart is pretty good starting point.

How I roughly figured out my Fargo.
I played APA one season in 8@9 ball. I maxed out. That starts me at 650.
I played Karen Corr in her peak. The game was roughly very even. 20 years later she wasn't playing, So I had to do the next thing Allison Fisher. I think she was in the 700-725.
I did that RDS drill and I made it to 14 Which is around 725.

I'd say I am comfortably in the 700+ish area depending on a few Physcial factors and level of motivation and concentration.
 
Go to the fairmatch link from post #2 and search for your name. It has 15 years of data. Your name and a few games of data might be in there without you knowing it.

The app you are thinking of to play 1 on 1 is called Salotto. It works well. https://salotto.app/

Solid bro!!👍🏻
 
I’m on the shorts this week, rough week playing backgammon.

So for $20 I’ll send you a certified FR,

Next week the price will be $40.

But you asked at a good time.

Thanks for the biz
