My knowledge of exactly how the snooker rankings work is not great, to say the least. So, if this is a daft question, I apologise in advance.

But I just wondered why the cut-off date for entries is the day befote Q School, and not before the first pro tournament of the season?

Can Q School affect the rankings Or is there a different reason that is obvious, but, due to my daftness, is not occurring to me.

Thanks.

I propose that socks are also banned. Might clean the forum up a bit as well from the scumbags that get their kicks convincing themselves we’re all stupid and haven’t got a clue :roll:

ID registration can’t come soon enough.

Can you put me in brackets at the end of your results then? I fully accept I can’t win or get that pink rude looking thing. Thinking about it, you might as well add me, a day late, come on mate!

It can! Did this at work adding MFA to our AWS sites, I know Manty prefers Azure but know it can do the same. You know where to reach me if you want to chat about it!

Having given this some consideration, I will use the following rules for future editions:

1) Partially complete teams will be accepted, but if not updated to include a full team, you have to stick with the partially completed team. So, for example, if you forget to pick a Group 15 player, you're going into the main event a man down.

2) Late entries will be accepted, but there's a 10-point deduction for entering a team within the first 24 hours of the deadline passing, and a further 10 points are deducted each day late after that.

With all this in mind, I'm going to bring these rules into force immediately, so Ck147 and Sidetracked can both take part this year with the above-mentioned handicaps in play.

Re: Cazoo Think Pink 2022/23

Postby Pink Ball

Sidetracked picked a Group 16 player (Duane Jones) as his Group 15 player, and he picked no Group 16 player. Therefore, he will enter without a Group 15 and Group 16 player. His other 15 players are eligible.

Ck147 entered his team on May 18, and the last day entries could be accepted on was May 15. He got his team in on the third day after deadline, so he will start with a 30-point penalty.

OK. Fair enough. I didn't realise there was a booby prize for last place. <laugh>

And it's great that someone here has told me to buck off in a jovial manner. If I told some of my son's fiends to buck off, they would start crying, run off to find a 'safe space', and call their therapist. rofl
