OK, I HAVE DONE THE BEST I CAN, AND HAVE UPDATED THE OPENING POST WITH SINGLES FIXTURES.

Can the captains please check that their player is available at the allotted time.

Re EssexPhil and Thisltedu, please can you confirm a start time before 2pm on Saturday which is acceptable to you both.

Cheers,

Ok graham, its easy for me to delete my posts. Ive had donnas team for a week. Theres 3 im sure are ok,Jordz , monkey, and rose.I never saw your post about not playing saturday, rose gave me mistys pairings.I thought you wanted me to try and marry up the posts from players.very, very, difficult.Ithijk those three games posted are ok, just wangle the other three.Ive never had direct contact with misty other than railing. If its match ups by availability, then the matches will likely pick themselves.

Hi Chill..... i have included you in my PM's as well as my players, I don't know whether you'd seen them, but I know Roseeee had sent you my pairings too. I had spoken to most of The South team and had arranged the team so that Jordz was to play early Sun.....x4 matches available 2pm to 3.30 and Roseee late. 

I'm sure we can sort this between us

GOOD LUCK tonight to everyone still playing.....sadly I'm not.....but the Mrs is happy

Can always redraw  as theres plenty of time.Was doing my head in trying to sort that out. The same lettered matches were unlikely to marry up with availibility.I'll get the broom.

FIXTURES STAND. SEE OPENING POST. LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE CAN'T PLAY AT ALLOTTED TIME.

IF MATTPRAWN AND MANIA WANT TO PLAY AT 3.30PM INSTEAD OF 6PM, THAT'S FINE. LET ME KNOW YOUR PREFERENCE.

Hi Rose.

Yes, sorry Chill, Mist and Dark. I know I get a bit intense about how it should run. So I do apologise if I'm a bit grumpy about it lol.

I just know if it is organised and run well, everyone wil get more enjoyment out of it.

It has been a delicate job of trying to speed things up for those who feel it's too slow, whilst trying to accomodate people with busy schedules. But Rose is right, of course, it should just be a bit of fun.

Anyhow, I apologise to anyone I have stressed out, not my intention.

Cheers,

Happy G :=)

I have just PM'd mania, so hopefully he'll respond soon.

Mania can you also play foursomes match with FeelGroggy (I think Sunday 2.30pm (after his match with Monkey) should work with Groggy)

Donald-please let me know tomorrow which you prefer

Phil

StayOrGo

OK, I have just spoken with FeelGroggy.

He will try his best to play the following on Sunday:

1) 2.00pm v MonkeyGLB (3 games)

2) 2.30pm v Mania1128 (3 games)

3) 3.00pm v StayOrGo (6 games)

He is under a lot of time pressure atm. If he feels he won't be able to make it, he'll post either Saturday night or Sunday morning, to let us know.

If Danny's unavailable, we can skip his matches and see if the South get to the magical 6.5 total anyway. And just go back and play them with a reserve in his place if the Ryder Cup is still on the line.

Cheers,

G

Hold my hands up, mostly my fault. This is gonna sound like a Tikay as it happened blog but......... I received the pairings in the afternoon, so I thought get them up this evening when most would be home from work. I write them down on paper and leave them on the coffee table by the sofa. At 6pm a mate comes by after his after work 4pints.Then starts on the Stella.Non stop rabbiting, I'm thinking I've got to concentrate on getting the matches posted shortly.He goes at 7•50, so I speed read ryder thread, only really taking in the word availability, mainly cos I want to reg for the hi lo poker league games that have started.Then I look through the ryder thread for posts on availability and see some of these pairings aren't going to marry up.Now 3 games certainly do, so I post those.I saw Donald needed a Saturday game and was drawn against Graham, now I was unaware Graham couldn't play on Saturday as I can't receive PM's on a tab.Im actually thinking that's handy for Graham, as it gives him the opportunity to rail games on the Sunday.Essexphil and Mania  looked freely available, but Matt P hadn't posted and FeelGroggy(well ??) I hinted at times, but never put any times down as I thought it would make Graham's task easier.loooooool.If I had put the games u-z they wouldn't have worked on availability.Meanwhile I'm in a hi lo game and have regged for the 9•15 game.Top of the hour the 8•45 hi lo restarts, can't get back in, duplicate table message.Finally get back in, then the 9•15 starts, ..... get nothing on both tabs, then duplicate table message on both.WTF!!.That wasn't stress, but a chilled WTF.Things are going well in both games, then not so well, then busto both.What a wonderful evening I'm having. Then go to Ryder thread, oh gawd blimey! I had missed the important posts by Graham..........= Earthquake. I did then see if there were any players about that I might rail, but find a player didn't respond to any of the usual suspects I typed in. So I typed in skootaT, he was in everything. Still couldn't see anyone I knew, but did come across Limp2lose on a ft, with the biggest stack with 3players left. Did he win Graham?
Posted by chilling

LOL, sorry for the stress and disruption to your games Chill.

I believe it was the £22BH at 10pm that you saw my son on the final table in.

And yes he did win it. :=)

He also called me in the break to remind me how grumpy I was being about things. :=)

Anyhow, lets forget all the stress and just enjoy the games, we'll just do the best we can with those that are available.

Have fun all! (Even despite my nagging, sorry)

WE HAVE A RESERVE FOR FEELGROGGY:

OK, there is a certain someone I know who was born in Coventry (so is just about a Northerner)

He spends his time living between Huntingdon and Coventry, but has a distinct Coventry accent like his Mum, and not at all like his Dad.

He's quite a shy lad, and doesn't normally get involved with things like this, but he has kindly volunteered to represent the North in place of FEELGROGGY.

And, if you haven't guessed by now, the player is:

LIMP2LOSE

So the fixtures will be

Sun 2.00pm: MonkeyGLB v Limp2Lose

Sun 2.30pm: Mania v Limp2Lose (Mania, can you please confirm availability for this)

Sun 3.00pm: StayOrGo v Limp2Lose

This really isn't my son's kinda thing, he prefers a low profile, so I really want to thank him for potentially bailing us out.

Cheers,

G (Dad)

P.S. Gary does have a weird sleeping pattern sometimes, he is currently at his Mum's in Coventry, so I just hope he gets out of his pit on time on Sunday lol :=)

P.P.S. Will update opening post with fixtures. (Looks like father and son will be locking horns)

MISTY4ME

Sounds like that will be FUN Graham..... (:D}

Is Danny not playing at all then.....or is your lad standing in if Danny can't make it?

Posted by MISTY4ME

Danny is very busy, and would rather not play, so Gary will play all FeelGroggy's remaining fixtures.

To keep things as straight forward as possible, he will keep to the schedule originally set for Danny.

So all on Sunday.

2.00pm v MonkeyGLB

2.30pm v Mania (need mania to confirm)

3.00pm v Me

He will play them sequentially, so there may be a slight delay if games run on.

Cheers,

G

StayOrGo

Misty, is there any chance you can stand in as reserve for Mania if we don't hear from him?

It would probably mean playing thisltedu tonight (3 games) and Limp2Lose (3 games) at 2.30pm Sunday.

Possibly MattPrawn in the singles on Sunday too, depending on when/if we hear from Mania.

Donald, what times are you available tonight?

Cheers,

G

Danny I hope you run golden in Punta Cana and hope that your uni work is going well. Thanks for stepping up, just unfortunate that things got in the way. Get the things done that are more important. Poker is a past time. Safe journey and stay safe! Tell Chris he better behave too.


To Little G, thank you so much for stepping in. Don't know how your dad managed to talk you into it but you're very welcome to the Northern team. Hope you run golden. XX
