RE: Thoughts for a Top Gun Tournament - Big Ivan - 01-29-2012 Thanks HSL I see your point. Good luck with the Top Gun tourney! Ivan the Big:smoke2: RE: Thoughts for a Top Gun Tournament - Herr Straße Laufer - 01-29-2012 Ash, I am sure you will be there one day! Most of these guys have been around since the founding of the club. :dual4: All Top Guns have the spirit, skills, and drive to win. They also acquired the numbers ... and that takes time? I have faith that you can do both. Ivan, I hold the wooden cross Endurance and Tenacity. :cut wood: They are my proudest of medals. For years I was below .500. I'm barely over that now. I would be honored to play in the Top Gun tournament. That I showed up on the ladder as having the qualifications to be in the tournament (5th alternate) is truly humbling. Especially to be among these "great and highly skilled ones". And, I'd most likely be eliminated first. A lot of players were over .500 or 2k ELO but they do not have the amount of games that would make it seem like they have the time to play in the tourney? Ten or more games, over .500 and over 2K in ELO is the standard? As it should be. It's not an insult to not be on the list? I hope that everyone would know that. :drink: HSL RE: Thoughts for a Top Gun Tournament - Big Ivan - 01-29-2012 HSL, I agree with everything you said! I haven't logged the time or shear amount of wins over the last few months, but I have a great overall win record at 80%, something I'm very proud of!! I see that wasn't enough. No problem l understand!! Truly I understand!!! Guess I got confused and maybe a bit selfish by what was the real requirements as they pertained to me, my appologies!! I should have read the requirements a little closer and reflected on them, my bad! For me, its time to move on with this issue and believe me, no hard feelings to anyone and most of all you HSL! I wish you the best of luck in this tourney!!!! Take care, talk soon!!!! John RE: Thoughts for a Top Gun Tournament - Herr Straße Laufer - 01-29-2012 Hi John, Rest assured, if the requirements are changed it will be in the amount of games played and not a reduction in the win/loss or ELO standards. Though, any one who qualifies should know that they need to commit to the tourney? It all now depends on how many qualifiers respond to this post? HSL RE: Thoughts for a Top Gun Tournament - Skryabin - 01-29-2012 Well, if there is an interest, maybe it would be possible to run a "2nd 20 Undertop Guns Tournament" or something like that. Play the same scenarios and everything, all the same rules. Just a thought.

The same question was asked and out of it came the Average Guy tournament. Not quite the same. But, it is interesting to see similar concerns now, as there were then.
