I left the meaning of an a or b,c,d player off due to thats another discussion on what defines each. Its just an educated guess. Most have an idea of a rating system that would be close enough.
Marissa I apologize if my Avatar offends you. I do feel the only thing that could be found offensive would be the cupping of the breast. Other than that she is just a beautiful woman. I will change it soon but for now I like to see her when I post. I do not try to offend anyone but I feel she isn't to out of line.

I turned them off here at work. I miss my baby seal, though.

However, I shouldn't have to. This is a POOL-related forum and I respectuflly ask you to change it, gpeezy. Remember, there are ladies and Christians on this forum, too.

<< A Christian lady :)

Marissa,

The quote you have on your posts about Bernie killing his friends and family...it's disturbing and I respectfully ask you to change it. There are kids and Christians on this forum, too.

<< A Christian man ;)

What??? .....are you a recently born again Christian or something???


If I remember correctly...didn't you have a avitar of two topless guys together in a very provocativily "gay" positioning???...(Not that there is anything wrong with that......"Seinfeld)

And I also seem to remember seeing you in some very provocative pictures of your own....;)

I've run 3 racks of 9 ball, 4 racks of 8 ball and 49 in straight pool. What would my rating be???

That gives you a rating of 3,449 I believe.

You're honestly gonna change it from one request/complaint? I recall you said you thought your avatar was the best... :rolleyes:

Others have avatars that I would prefer be removed, but yours is fine to me (and yeah, I'm female).

I propose the following for self-rating.
In 14.1 if you run-a. 5-7 balls---c+
b. usually 7-14---b minus
c. 9-14 + some of next rack---b
d. 10-14+ 10-14next rack----b plus
e. 2 racks fairly consistently--a minus
f. 2 racks up to 4----------a
g. 4 + up---------------aa
I'd be interested in hearing about the numbers and ratings.

Wow, we are one step away from having a Robinhood and his Merrymen running around with quivers on their backs.

Very close, I have been called a robbing hood before!

I don't know how I rate these days but I am pretty sure that like others I ran out of letters in the poll before I got to one that described my abilities.

I think Strange & Unique Cueing Knowledge & Skills best describes me. That is a mouthful so most people just use the acronym when referring to my play.

I am born again. However, I don't think being gay is a choice, and that avatar was to make a point that some of the guys' avatars here make more than a few people uncomfortable. I don't have any provocative pictures, in my opinion. I have worked as an artist's model, and there is a difference between art (and I appreciate artistic nudes) and borderline pornography.

Something tells me you maaaaaay not be helping yourself out.
 
Jude Rosenstock said:
Agreed. We should have a new system. Here are the proposed ranks. You can add to them as you see fit:

Diety
Demi-God
King/Queen
Prince/Princess
Aristocrat
Bourgeoisie
Peasant
Bottom feeder

I usually play just a smidge better than my opponent. Not a concious effort to vary my game, just seems to happen. Seem to be able to dial it up a notch when needed.
