In the hot seat. Nice. 743 performance. Great tournament for Rachel.
I’m live in a few min:
So I concede. Fargo gives you a true rating. I have beaten one player in the last 3 years above my fargo. So that being said anyone running a 637 and under tournament ? I could maybe cash in that as long as no fargo sandbaggers show up.
Fargo is City in North Dakota.
IMHO there is no perfect Handicapping System.
Open play worked long ago.
Know is Arizona today if you have No Fargo you cannot play a Fargo Rated Tournament.

What do you do when kids get on your lawn?Fargo is City in North Dakota.
He's from Arizona. His former lawn is planted in prickly pears and nettles. They guard his yard 24/7.
We have a local girl that is Fargo rated at 309 with 400+ robustness. She is an apa 5/5 or sometimes 6/6 but is always sandbagging the system to remail underrated. I would guess she shoots at a 500 Fargo clip, when she is trying to win or if money is involved. When in BCA league she seems to race to lose. How is this to be countered? It seems pride is not something she possesses when its just league- but if money is involved- she shoots very well and is also a smart player. I cant fathom why the local tourney directors dont rerate her.
Most people in Arizona don't own Lawn Mowers, Bob is right Desert Landscaping in big. Castus, Rock, Sand and all you need is a good rake to keep everything looking good.
The first time I ever flew into Vegas in daylight, I turned to my buddies and said "I was thinking of opening a lawnmower store here in Vegas. I've changed my mind" There wasn't a single blade of grass in sight.
Well even in the Desert people Play Golf, some of the most beautiful Golf Courses are in Arizona. The but is most also because of bing in Desert you got Rattlesnakes, Gila Monsters, Scorpions, Coral snake, and other animals who call desert home.
Latest graph. Hovering around 570. I did win a handicapped weekly tournament last week in Atlanta, but it wasn't fargorated. That was at Mr Cues 2. It was the first time I ever won anything in that room in 15 years of trying, haha. I haven't even won a gambling game there, best I did prior was breaking even.
I also played a 660U (handicapped within the races) in Atl last week at Mr Cues 2, that was fargorated. I had a bye the first round, and was waiting on a match. The one player was so slow, it put me on complete tilt watching him. I wanted to strangle him. This guy was like Bassavich slow! I went to the TD and told him to watch him, that he was going to hold up the whole event. He went and gave him a warning after watching him a bit. He ended up losing, and I played his opponent. I was shaking while playing as I was still on tilt from watching their prior match! (I did win that match). That slowpoke ended up progressing far thru the loser's side, and ended up holding up the tournament 4 hours! I'm not exaggerating, I took screenshots of the digitalpool bracket with the timestamps of each match. Regardless of that tilt mode, I ended up playing well this event and it pushed me up 2 points. I was so happy when I got home and went to bed, and checked the bracket and saw how far behind that player was. (happy that I lost and didn't have to fade watching him).

Did the TD do anything other than the one warning?
I’m not sure. I was playing my matches and wasn’t paying attention. I did see him comment on fb something to the affect of match time limits going forward.
