Thank You to the coolest friends, customers and pool fans in the world.

Justin, this was the most fun I've had watching a pool stream. Thanks to you and everyone who helped you guys.

Most times I can only watch an hour or so at a time before getting bored. I probably watched 12 hours of this stream and was laughing like crazy and amazed at some of the shots both guys were making. I was at the bar last night telling people who know nothing about pool about it, I think I even hurt my chances with a girl talking about it lol...
 
I think I have bought almost every TAR match and this was great as usual and didn't upset me in the least that the final day went for free. Hopefully business will soar from these folks getting a free taste. I am sure if JCIN knew he could get 2,000 viewers each time he could make it more affordable for those with tighter budgets. I think $25.00 is a great value though but I wonder how many more viewers they would get at $15.00 after seeing what happened last night with no advertisement of a free stream. Maybe? Maybe not?

I would never try to tell TAR how to run their business but just wanted to point out what was perceived as a negitive to them really was a positive I believe. I would like to see TAR continue to grow and be successful because there is definetely interest. I have no doubt they will as they are high character people who have made some great decisions as last night was a perfect example.

You should start selling popcorn also cause it was another great show and I'll be there for TAR 21. Thanks TAR!
 
Thank you

Justin,

I have purchased almost every one of your streams. You do a great job and I for one appreciate all of it. I would have no chance to see such great pool without your hard work.

Hopefully you will get the Alex & Earl match. That would be awsome and another great pay per view.

I purchased the Earl / Shane match for all 3 days and would not even consider asking for a refund, even if all 3 days ended up having to be streamed free due to technical problems.

Keep us posted on the upcoming matches. If they happen in Vegas I may make the trip as it would be great to see one of these matchups in person.

Thanks again for all that you do for the pool world. Hopefully you are living your dream.

Justin,

Great stream, show, etc. I thought it was really well done and the pool was top notch. I like having Beav in the commentator booth and the addition of John Schmidt was good as well.

I know you already understand how to make things better, from streaming to 'the show' and I am sure you will take the steps needed.

Earl is a card -- half the time, I cringed when he looked at someone in the crowd for too much noise and I even sat up straighter on my couch as a result. And, judging by the results of TAR 20 -- CRAZY LIKE A FOX.

Keep the wheels rolling - critical mass cannot be far away. The 5x10 was a shot in the arm, no doubt.

I also liked you idea of several shorter sets, but more of them, instead of a race to 100.

Keep it up, ME
 
Thanks!

Thanks TAR and everyone else involved in the stream. I think it was AWESOME and $25 for the three day event was an amazing deal. My friends and I support TAR 110% and all that they do for the world of pool. :thumbup:

I don't have a PP account either and don't want one. Paid for the stream as a guest. You no longer need to be a PP member to buy the TAR stream. Now pony up next time and pay for that stream, Justin needs the $, lol.
 
Thanks justin. I hope nobody who watched asked for a refund and i hope some of those who watched for free donated something.
As for me, i dont even feel like i bought something. I feel like me and my buds chipped in to support something we wanted to see:thumbup:

Great job great stream

Thanks
 
I missed the Friday and Saturday stream but was logging on to buy the Sunday match....Then you had problems and streamed it for free....What a great thing to do....I just sent a $30.00 donation to you Justin for all the great work you do and to help keep you around....Thanks again.....:)

I just want to thank all of the people who were so amazingly supportive of us tonight when a nightmare situation hit the PPV system on the final day.

It was a no win situation and thanks to all of the people who were so supportive and downright cool as hell it worked out. I have no words to describe how much your kind words and selfless attitude mean to all of us who worked on the production.

I have much to say about the whole thing and plan on putting it all down when I get a chance but I just had to say thank you. For all the negative things that seem to come up about this game tonight reenforced to me how many good and understanding people there are in this game.

Thank you.

Justin,

And we all owe your a big "Thank You" for not killing Earl on day two (even though we know you only spared him to avoid having to refund your customer's. :wink: ).

Actually, I slept through the technical difficulties. Then when I woke up I read CreeDo's post and all was well.

To tell you the truth, this was the most riveting match so far. I watched all three days. Watching that nasty-ass table actually gave me bad dreams. I've played on hacked tables enough to know what these guys were suffering through. I really enjoyed watching the safety battles too - they both played brilliant safeties - especailly the kick safes - unreal.

What a show.

Chris

I just got home from Youngstown and all I can say is wow, what an amazing trip. This was by far the most enjoyable TAR production i've been fortunate enough to be a part of. Justin and the guys of RunOut Media (Dave and Nathan) put together one of the best productions i've seen in the pool world. This was only possible because of the two incredible players who agreed to get together and play this match. Earl and Shane gave everyone in out tight knit community a real treat that I think is a ground-breaking event that is going to lead to some new trends and very exciting things in the near future.

Much appreciation needs to be given to Mike Gulyassy, John Mars and everyone at Ice Breakers Billiards in Youngstown. Without these very special people, this match could not of come to fruition. I feel very lucky to have been able to play a small role in this historic match-up.

The last group that deserves so much thanks are the fans out there who supported TAR, the players, the backers and the venue by purchasing the stream and making it an epic one with your participation here on the forums. Shane, Justin, Nathan, Dave and myself went out to breakfast after the end of night two when Earl pulled out the magnifying glass. I can promise you we were reading most of your guys' posts on here and dying laughing. The Earlock Holmes had us laughing so hard people at Dennys were looking at us like we were idiots. I really feel you're going to see some more amazing things in the near future. Stay on the edge of your seat, I know I am.
 
agreed

i cant agree with justin anymore! all of you are so good to TAR and its just great to meet so many of you and it makes it worth it for all the work justin does to keep the show on the road! thanks to everyone that has stuck by us, hopefully there are big things coming soon! nasty
 
Best stream I have ever watched! It is so sharp and focused its hard to believe. Thank you for all the hard work I know is involved.
 
TAR FTW. Known you guys from the beginning and it keeps getting better. See everyone in a few months in Vega$.

I think what justin is talking about was the situation where certain people couldn't get access to the stream due to TAR's provider having issues. After much debate justin decided to switch the stream over to a free stream so anyone to view it including those that paid and could not get in. The problem was that for those that did pay to get in would they have an issue with others viewing it for free. I paid and had no issues with this, as did many others who paid. It was the right solution and I think it worked well for everybody.

It was another great event. Earl was entertaining as all hell. I hope anyone that enjoys these events continues to support TAR. Maybe those that had a chance to view the last day for free would consider sending a little something something to TAR at theactionreport.com. even if it's something as small as a 10 dollar tip, it would go a long way towards future events.

Thanks Justin and crew. You da man.

Absolutely agree! It was the right decision! Awesome event! Also a big congrats to the two Mike's for all their effort!

Hey Justin. Maybe it's there and I just missed it, but you should add a donation button on your page somewhere so that, when you give free streams (or even when someone just feels like it), people can throw a few bucks your way. :)
 
Fantastic stream!!! Was a steal for $25... Also enjoyed the commentary. Have John Schmidt back to the booth. Hopefully next time he can tell some more stories..

It used to be there. A friend and I were discussing this the other day and they said that when they asked why it was no longer up they were told it was because people that "donated" started expecting special treatment like getting into the ppv for free or getting free merchandise. :rolleyes:

Sometimes the world we live in can be a very ugly place. A donation is just that, a donation. If you expect something in return then you should simply buy something. If what my buddy was told is correct then I don't blame them. People received something this weekend so "donating" for the stream on Sun would actually be paying for something received & people shouldn't think they deserve special treatment for that.
