  I just can't wait to see who the three scumbag holdouts are who have allowed game #3073 at Andy's to linger for 12 hours. Three self-centered clowns. I can't wait to expose their lack of good natured play.

  LOL, WGT doesn't post who doesn't post.  If they did it sounds like a few people would be be getting a clever lashing via wall post from a pint-sized mic snot-knocker.

  BTW, I thought you liked to have fun, but didn't know the SP friends list was clothing completely optional.  I guess those in SoCal just prefer to jam out with their clam out.  Boy do I need to move.

  Isn't that picture something else? Some tramp with gibblets only a fool could chow on, replete with a bungler that has known many salami moments. Good eye.

  .... as the drooling set run to check SP's profile to see what they are talking about ...

  Funny, y'know....  perfectly harmless avatars get removed while the truly offensive / borderline pornographic remain.

  Sometimes I wonder who's running the show...

  But then I get over it and move on.

  Oak, a nice screenprint showing 47/50, then another showing 50/50 can show you the difference of who posted.  Hate those people.  Why join to play 11hrs later, like there wont be a new RG available later.

  Technically, it's well within the rules to sign up and not play until 11 hours later.

  Whining about it on the forums isn't going to change anything, and if anything, waiting 12 hours for the tourny to finish is much better than it was when there was a 24 hour time limit.

  And I suspect that some people do it so that they can be grouped in a RG with "lesser" competition, and since it's well within the rules of the game to do so, I have no issues with people who do so.

  This may be a bit off of my angry rant, but it is easy to see that the RGs have a clear supply/demand pecking order. Andy's is a quick sell, quick fill and quick end...unless one of the slowpokes come aboard. Kiawah is knocked out next and the sell-fill-end times are reasonable. BPB however, is a very slow sell, very slow fill and, well, slow says it all. BPB should become a 50 credit RG to pick up its rate of sale.

  Lily,

  you are my so.cal. friend but I must disagree with you on this topic.  I can think of many reasons ( other than intentionally  holding out till the last minute) why someone would not play there round at all .  personally I will sometimes go online at the office (don't tell my boss) and see a ready go that I want to play when I get home so I sign-up.  I can remember several occasions where I never played a round because I  either forgot about it, had something come up, one time  had to go to the hospital and never played the round.  I sure do hope you don't see me as a self-centered clown....

  No worry bryan...I am a clown. Self centered always at the wrong times.

  Nooooo, not you SP!  j/k

  Who doesn't have an occasional rant about this game from time to time? Sure we love the game, but the frustration is undeniable at times.
