You're not an A, B, C player till you can do what?

[Cameron Smith]

This goes back to my original point and I will summerize it perfectly. In 14.1, the best defense is a great offense. It's really the only pool game I can say that about.

I don't disagree with that. I only brought up Taberski because I don't like the idea of assigning all of these averages to playing levels as it seems counter productive to improvement as a player may start focusing on innings rather than just winning (I guess I think you need to add a W, haha, get it? no? bah). Taberski works into that claim as he at least anecdotaly had a lower BPI average than a top player should.

This should satisfy everyone

After being around for a few years, my take on it is this..

C/D - posts questions asking what the difference is between ratings

B - has a hunch, but will also tend to use the search feature here at AZB or may even get adventurous and use the interwebs

A - has a pretty good idea of where they stand and has been 'put in their place' by some serious players, tries nicely to give a definition, redirect or give examples

Open - will provide the definition, give directions and give examples

Pro - will need more information to put together a correct response for the situation
