I"m sure you"ll all be devastated, but the Pondboarding event has been cancelled.

If we have an August event try do it then?

Steve, in advance, would you publish a set of rules for this please. The rules of pool seem to be different wherever and whenever I play....

Yes, got that on the to do list.

Black Ball rules OK by everybody, they seem to be the most widely understood I think.

Will find a link to them

Pool = Friday (probably).
Pingpong = Sunday (see first post here: http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=13213.0 for details).

Golf is going to be Saturday AM. Just need to choose a course.

I"ve stuck you on the list for both. You"re 1st reserve for PingPong (I"m 99.9% sure you"ll get to play though!), and you"re in the Pool atm :)

Rodders,

hmmmm, just thought 36 players for pool...

If you"re going to do a very quick knock-out style, that will play out:

36 > 18 > errrr.. 9?...

I think we need to change to 32 players max. 32 > 16 > 8 > 4 > 2

= 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 games = 31 games... Probably doable in the time you have.

Is every game going to be "best of 1"? Some people might feel a little put-out to go all that way for 1 game! :)

Or do you have another format planned other than KO-stylee? If you"re doing Leagues then K.O, I reckon 4 tables would be best...
