Thanks WARTRACE Regulators: great 4th of July match
Tennessee williams replied to Widder, SASS #59054's topic in SASS Wire
The rest of the sentence goes like this: Don't posse me with....TW because Widder is gonna be on his posse. There you go letting another truth slip out. Next thing you know, you'll be making your tithes and stop stealing kids lollipops. -

She started not to do it when she realized you were on my posse. I told her I limited you to 6 lies and you used up 4 of them walking from your truck to the outhouse. Dixie is good people. Has to be to put up with Reno. -
No. When a shooter incurs a spirit of the game penalty in means the shooter has "Willfully shot a stage other than the way it was intended in order to gain a competitive advantage" No. It does not read that a shooter must "actually gain" a competitive advantage. Example. Shooter messes up at the beginning of their 10 shot single tap Nevada sweep scenario and double taps the first target. Realizing they can only get one P, the shooter dumps the rest of the rounds on target one as well. This shooter has lost time because of the procedural. When asked why they dumped rounds on one target they said, "well I cant get but one P, so I tried to make up time and shoot it faster than I could shoot the rest of the sweep". That shooter hasnt actually gained time on the stage due to the P, they did however "Willfully shoot a stage other than the way it was intended in order to gain a competitive advantage"

John, Everything you said except the above muddied the water. Admission matters in EVERY CASE. There is a 30 second difference in shooting at the knockdowns as fast as you can and not worrying if you hit them or not vs intentionally missing the targets say into a berm to try to get the rounds off quicker. One is SOG penalty and one is not. I usually don't make too much effort to reply to your posts because youve said you dont really shoot, and that's probably not the best actions on my part. You do seem like you want to understand the rules. Maybe there are more than my 3 stated reasons for someone to be involved in SASS. Maybe I can add "enjoys deciphering rules." I don't see a problem with that I guess. It would make more sense though if you could shoot more. Small things change and you won't know if you're not there.

That only leaves one option but I am still convinced you don't understand. Not in my reply post you quoted it wasn't. No, it is usually fenceposts who think people are out to get them for making a call. And absolutely NOBODY said that was a SOG penalty. Again for the 3,547th time. It is not whether someone THINKS a shooter did it on purpose. The penalty would come for instance if a shooter was supposed to shoot a Tennessee two step (1,3,3,2,3,3,4,3,3,5) and started the sweep with 1,1 at which point they realize they have already earned a P so decide to just dump all the remaining rounds on target 3. At this point I will still not give a SOG even though lots of TOs would because the shooter failed to atleast attempt some kind of sweep. BUT when I ask that shooter why they just decided to dump the rounds on target 3 and they reply "I can only get one P, so I saved time by just dumping the rest of the rounds." That shooter will get a SOG from me and no amount of back peddling will stop it. No amount of you calling me vindictive, or saying Im just looking for a penalty to give has any weight whatsoever on my conscience. It is the correct call regardless of what you think. Had that shooter told me they were lost as last years Easter egg, I personally would not call it but know others who would. So again. Contrary to what you wrote you do not understand the rule just fine. My post you quoted, as well as Creeker's and Griff's post, were if the shooter admitted to purposefully shooting a scenario other than intended to gain time. We all said you couldn't ass/u/me what the shooter's intent was. Doubt will go in the shooter's favor but if there is no doubt, then there is no doubt.

Howdie, Please thank your wife from all of us at Wartrace. She has a knack for finding the good looking in almost any scenario, as evidenced by the many portraits of myself. Also, it is unbelievable how good she must be with photoshop. The picture of Widder is astounding. His eyes look like they're the same size and his nose is straight. Why, you can't even see they hair coming out of his nose and ears! All, jokes aside she has some talent! Thank her for me please! That had to be a lot of work. -Tennessee

Don't know if you dont understand the rule or you just cheat. Has to be one of the two.

Now dang it Widder, everbody knows you lie more'n anybody and you done went and committed a truth. You'll ruin your reputation letting a truth slip out like that. Thanks to Marvin and everybody else who lent a hand or even just came out to shoot with us. -
Regardless of what you may think. It is a SOG if you shoot the stage other than intended in order to save time by the very definition. If the way they "found" is purposefully shooting it other than intended to gain a time advantage, that is called SOG. There is nothing vindictive about penalizing it. If a certain sweep takes you 13 seconds to complete but you decide you can dump 10 rounds on one target in 2 seconds so counting the 10 second penalty you would be 12 seconds total instead of 13 saving 1 second. That is not a smarter way to shoot it, it is cheating. And this^ is NOT cheating. It is getting lost or mixed up and earning a P. Big difference, and one you cannot guess on. Thats why their answer to the question matters.

Thanks Griff! I changed my wording twice. The first time I had "therefore he doesnt get a SOG, but he does get ribbed and......" I know, Excuses excuses
-
Because if the shooter SAID they purposefully missed it they would have met the definition of SOG. The same as the shooter who gets lost on the first couple of rounds in their scenario so they just dump the last 8 rounds on a target. After the shooter has finished and was asked why did you just dump the rest of the rounds and answered: *1) I already got a P and it was faster to just dump the rounds. This shooter has willfully shot the stage other than intended to gain a time advantage. They have earned a P. *2) I was as lost as last years easter egg and didnt know what to do. This shooter has not met the definition of a SOG and thereby just gets a P and ribbed for being forgetful and must buy the 1st round at the local Dairy Queen.

He was, he was just too young back then. I think E.T. has been working on his speed. He shot his rifle like he stole it last match. -

One starting line from the match will be.... The Brithish are runnin, the British are runnin! -
You're correct, but I typed that out stopped at a red light and didnt have time/wasn't worth it to Google it for the correct grammar. The last story I wrote featured big nose Kate standing by the door with a knife saying "I aint leaving without my man". Looks like I combined the two. I may be run out of town.

I get a kick out of having cowboys say the start line from the song Seven Spanish Angels. "I aint leaving without my man" Hehehe

This is shaping up to be a humdinger of a match! Even though Widder is coming, other folks are still willing to show up. I think since we have him there, we might as well put him to some use and have him do a class for what he does best. If you're interested, we will have him set up somewhere close to where the food is going to be. Now is your chance to learn how to lie like the best out there. Don't expect to match him lie for lie right off the bat though. He's had many years to perfect his art. -

I aint never had a "disdain". Do they taste anything like nanner splits? Speaking about Randy's clubs, I tried to join his "I got lied to by Widder club" but they was plumb full up and not accepting any new members. I think they were having a hard time finding a place big enough to meet at. I know one cowpoke what said there wasn't any use having a club if everybody was gonna be in it. -

Gatling gun, texas stars, hamburgers, hotdogs, and the Mouth of the South hisowndangself Widder. The only drawback to this match will be if those dang bikini models show up again this year. Hopefully we can keep them away, but they're mighty persuasive. Who all is planning on coming besides them? -
