I guess the rush to get registered isn't like it used to be... 3 hours in and only 1 player has registered. Ricky

Rick probably the only one up that late on a Thursday night. But yes, hard to see the need to rush when there are 214 spots for MPO and less than 200 eligible to register at the moment.

The payout this year is going to be huge by our standards. There will be 60000 added cash.

 

[brutalbrutus]

Up to 16 now... Including Henna and Eveliina…:thmbup:

Seriously, how does Nate Heinold do it? He appears to be doing it for two events with the projected pro payout for Ledgestone being $81,565, and the Am side is $63,580.

looks like Henna is up to 964 in Rating. . just one point after Cat and 4 after Paige. . So Henna is close to being the highest rated FPO in the World.
Have a no US player ever been the highest rated player?

 

[Halcón]

Henna is the future world champ. It's only a matter of time.

To say the guy is a workaholic is a severe understatement.

Well, both Henna and Eveliina have a much higher rating than the current World champ, ,, but they can´t win if they don´t play.

So fun to see them finaly play Worlds

Looks like both CCDG and Jomez will be at Worlds according to the udisc info. Any of the other crews?

Last week, JVD confirmed on the Smashboxx podcast that they'd be there doing live. I believe he said the plan was MPO day 1, FPO day 2, MPO day 3, FPO day 4 and both on day 5. The reason for the swapping is that signal at Northwoods is insufficient for live, so they'll cover the MPO rounds at Eureka and the FPO rounds at Sunset Hills only.

I see that everybody's favorite pro Lloyd Weema is signed up again!

Is it weird that I'm hoping he gets some video coverage, preferable with a 1020+ player, just to see the skill level difference?

 

[brutalbrutus]

I just want to him actually get a birdie...

Someone set up a camera on Eureka #3 to document history.

I don't know who this is but I bet the story is hilarious.

His rating is in the 700's.

And because of his chutzpah, he has somewhat of a fan following. There are those who are disgusted by his playing at top level, then there's those of us who quite willing point out that if we had the time and money that we would do the same. Lloyd is our hero, our model for what we wish we could do, he's willing to be in the embarrassing situation that the rest of us wish we could be in.

It´s just odd that anyone can enter a World championchip. . in any sport
in most sports you need to go throw a long and hard qualifying to get in to the Worlds

If i go and watch a Worlds in any sport, i want to see the best athletes in that sport. . . not to see amateurs that play worse than the "weekend players" at a local club

There was a skier from some tropical country in the Skiing World Championships in Finland a few years back.... struggling to even stay upright on the skis :wall: But even he qualified by being the best of his national group. I think.

But in events like track&field there are set results you need to match or best to be able to enter. No matter if you are the top athlete in your country or not. Get the result, then enter.
