I prefer the A B C D designations. I need three out of four of them to rate myself.
I'm a B A D player.

You missed the point I was making.
Regardless, I played a SL7 on Wednesday night and won 18-2. (46-11) I had the opportunity to win 20-0, but dogged the nine on the second to last rack. I was up 36-0, before he got a shot, and that was him kicking out of a safety. More than likely, I will be a SL7 next week. I haven't gotten many matches in, so my handicap has stayed relatively low. So, to add to the point that I was making, do handicaps show true ability? NO...
I beat the SL8's, because at the time, I played better than they did. I don't see why so many of you, in the critic crew, have to put down on people when you weren't even there to watch my play. APA, BCA, NAPL, TAP, and even Dr. Dave's rankings are/can be flawed. I'm still a SL5 in APA 8-ball, but I haven't played in two sessions. Wanna spot me some games on the wire?
What's your high run in 14.1?
The Hopkins rating system is accurate. You ace it cause you're an ace. Others don't because they're not. It's far more accurate than A-D or APA ratings.224
Used to play a ton up in NY before I moved to FL... Love the game but no one plays down here.
Dude. I don't give a damn how good you play or not. I was simply making my point relative to yours. As far as playing. Head over to Canton, OH. We can play.
