APAT National Rankings - Season Two
Jon MW:
Darren hasn"t lost any points, or been docked any points, the rule is that only the top 5 live points count.
It might only be semantics but I think losing points and docking points is, and should, be associated with penalising people obviously that"s not what this rule is about.

Firstly John welcome lol !!
When i read the post it felt like a dig at online points when all can play em and there is always plenty of runners, and i will totally agree the nationals are best tourney and always full so points are definatley fair 1 point for every 10 players roughly! And these are very hard to get in top 18 , for 1 i have never done it.
I not sure about darren points bein docked which prob shouldnt but rules are rules, i was actually discussing this topic with him the other day and he didnt mention about losing points?
I think the online games are bread and butter of the APAT for points and finacial aspects of the game. Would the nationals be as good , i e no buy in ,free buffet etc without sponsorship of blue square. Also 4 games a month is not a lot to play and u dont have to play em all to do well!
I didnt want to sound as harsh as i did john but i believe the more competitive games there are, online and live the better to find the best/most dedicated and of course lucky player for apat champion.
Seriously fella i see your point about live is harder if you on about nationals.
Online are not as good as live i agree too but they are required for the ease of playin and to get a better player at the top !! Obvious cream rises to top that is why i am winning !! And by the way that comment was very much tongue in cheek lol !! Anyway welcome again and i am sure you will let me buy you a beer while we can discuss it in london
and same goes for you des i would be very happy to give ides etc for season 3 if you dont mind me bending your ear ??
woop woop

I think that"s spot on Jon. It"s Darren"s top 5 live points that count and that is where the focus should be.

scouse3465:
nice speakin to you online tonight !! minttrav (john)
good to see darren no points deducted but can see why live points where but there aint much chance of someone pointing in 5 ! Cos nationals are tough and u sure need a slice of luck to get threw such a tough field!
And would be good if rankings up dated so we know were we all at going into last few games please!! i know its tough john but if it helps i am on 58 lol
And see you at bar des but thats the norm innit lol ;)
