My My. There has been a lot of comment on this thread and all the old prejudices aired too. It rankles folks that WGT allow players to attain high level yet remain lower tiers. Their beef is with WGT not me. I pay fair - never lose on purpose or record a higher score than shot. All challenge games are entered into with the opponents tier and record known, so that's completely fair. I say well done WGT.
As for Paudie. I have a winning record against him, so I like to think he contributed to my last Amazon card :) He won our last game, so he got a bit back - hence his crowing. In his posts he contradicts himself, saying I haven't bought the cards - then he's clearly seen the evidence in my blogs - so later admits I have! Beware playing this fellow, he swears like a trooper and is hard to stomach. The fact that he's so keen to play me rather torpedos his argument however. Poor Paudie.
