I am sure we will now have unanimous support for the use of rank point scoring since CC gave us these compelling arguments. :rolleyes:

Rank Scoring versus Total Time is Not about fairness, It is about Preference !

 

Similar to Regular Play versus Match Play in golf.

 

Two different games played with the same basic equipment and rules.

 

There is NO right or wrong, NO better or worse, just preference.

 

Hence, there is no logic to chose, thus no resolution.

 

It will never end !

You want to make this arguement yet I have seen no logical points made to support it. Total Time is a more accurate way to measure performance in this game we have today.

 

And to compare Match play in golf...well...that'd be fine if it was only a head-to-head competition...but CAS ain't head-to-head.

Tradition, tradition! Tradition!

Tradition, tradition! Tradition!

 

[TEVYE & PAPAS]

Who, day and night, must scramble for a living,

Feed a wife and children, say his daily prayers?

And who has the right, as master of the house,

To have the final word at home?

 

The Papa, the Papa! Tradition.

The Papa, the Papa! Tradition.

 

[GOLDE & MAMAS]

Who must know the way to make a proper home,

A quiet home, a kosher home?

Who must raise the family and run the home,

So Papa's free to read the holy books?

 

The Mama, the Mama! Tradition!

The Mama, the Mama! Tradition!

 

[sONS]

At three, I started Hebrew school. At ten, I learned a trade.

I hear they've picked a bride for me. I hope she's pretty.

 

The son, the son! Tradition!

The son, the son! Tradition!

 

[DAUGHTERS]

And who does Mama teach to mend and tend and fix,

Preparing me to marry whoever Papa picks?

 

The daughter, the daughter! Tradition!

The daughter, the daughter! Tradition!

 

Oy!!!

If you score a match with 2 different methods and come up with 2 different winners by GOD one of em is wrong!!!

RRR

 

Never could understand how anybody could shoot slower, not shoot some stages, and still win a match.

 

Might as well just pull badges out of a hat to determine placement.

I don't have access to all of the data, but I know of at least two times EOT has been won by a shooter who did not shoot the match clean, and three times EOT has been won by a shooter who did not slow down because it was a rank point match.

 

As for tradition, this pretty much sums up my thoughts.

Well...I think that when a "WB" member makes such a statement...it deserves a bit of discussion. And besides, what would you folks on the TG WIRE have to poke fun at if we didn't?

Yea kinda like having 1 or 2 shooters in a category... might as well put the awards in the shooters packet ;)

 

So... if ya use two different scoring methods and the same shooter wins... then by GOD its meant to be!!

 

I've seen beer turned into stitches before?

There is no logic to preference !

 

If this debate was to be decided by logic or data analysis, it would have been decided long ago.

 

Everyone just seems to be offering their opinion on why their preference is best or more fairer.

 

Rank Points and Total Time are just two different games.

 

Some prefer one game and some prefer the other game.

 

 

Local Clubs have a choice on which game they play.

 

SASS Regional and above Matches play only one game - Rank Points.

That is the Wild Bunch's preference !

 

 

 

As most issues in life are about preference, human agreement is hard to reach.

At the end of the match and I can see all the times,,,,,, I personally use which ever scoring system that puts me up the highest on the list. Which list? Sometimes that is the challenge to figure out which list. :lol:

 

Some times I have to use all my raw times per stages against the other shooters accumulated time to come out ahead. :rolleyes:

 

Some times I have to mentally switch classes and then compare to come out ahead in one of the 2o some catagories.

 

All I need is a 10th place shingle board to be happy.

 

I will even let the other person take home the price. Packing that extra award home just cuts down my gas mileage when I go home and my roof has all the shingles it needs. Don't need any more. :unsure:

 

Try it... everyone is a winner with my system.

 

Play Ball!!!
