Topic: Polls for Foosapalooza

Author: Kent Original Message Posted: Apr 13 2008 10:00PM

OK, I thought I would let the players decide if they wanted to have a Foosapalooza Poll(s) on CalgaryFoos.

These can be fun so let me know what type of poll you would like to see.

e.g.
Who will win Open Singles
Who will win Open Doubles
Who will win Semi-Pro Doubles
Who will win Semi-Singles
Who will surprise everyone
Who will be the next Pro in Canada

For Novice and Rookie we can create the same thing if you are interested.

What do we need to create a poll? Just an idea along with the options for players to vote.

Since I haven't played a competitive game in about a year and a half I'll weigh in.

Who will win Open Singles: Christian Dunn (unless he plays Darrel P.)

Who will win Open Doubles: Garry B and his scrub partner.

Who will win Semi-Pro Doubles: Botros if he's still semi.

Who will win Semi-Pro Singles: Fred Quan(I know he won't be there but he's due so he'll win anyway....)

Who will surprise everyone: If JR doesn't get in a fight I'd sure be surprised.

Who will be the next Pro in Canada: Whoever wins Semi-singles.

Haha, looking forward to seeing you again Christian

I was thinking more of running a couple of polls that will keep track of the results.

Matt is a pro now.

Well if your going to run a poll don't forget to put Eric Dunn and I into the doubles choices.

He talked me into actually playing yesterday (Twisted my rubber arm I know...).

Sorry to the guys that I've arlready said no to, this was a last minute decision based on the fact that I've got a better idea how much work has to get done before finals.

Anyone else coming from BC?

Eric D, glad you can make it.

I appreciate the vote of confidence Matt, but I can't play this weekend (work). Besides until I learn to execute consistently that damn shot that everyone says is so easy, my game is DOA.

Open (no particular order)- Matt B, Darryl, Eric, and my sleeper pick is Eric Goodman.
Open D- Matt B & Darryl
Semi- Rick G, Jack H, sleeper pick is Ben
Semi D- Rick and Jeff




Author: Asian Sensation Reply #10 Posted: Apr 14 2008 5:41PM

OD - Eric and Eric or Matt & Darrel
OS - Christian, Darrel, Matt, or Simon
SD - Rick K. & Jeff T. or Paul G & Jack H.
SS - Barry W. or Jack H.

Are Silvester and Belhumeur going? If so, they are top picks for the doubles events too (if they don't show up hungover... or even show up at all ), Mike in Singles (amid the previous bracketed comments).

I think Dale C. will surprise everyone.

Next Pro will be the Semi Singles / Doubles winner.

I just noticed that my Canadian Rank is blank on the Calgaryfoos website, does that mean I can play Rookie if I were to miraculously show up for Pooza?


Author: Kent Reply #12 Posted: Apr 14 2008 6:00PM

We don't have everyone ranking yet. Brian will be providing me the list that he has so that I can update the one on CalgaryFoos.

Sorry to hear you can't make it Todd. Now I have a chance ;)


Author: Kent Reply #13 Posted: Apr 15 2008 8:18AM

I will post some Polls on CalgaryFoos tonight. For the Rookie's out there I need some names if you want a poll to be put up.

Some Rookies that I know of.
Linda
Tri
Kevin
Vanson
Zarko

OK, 4 polls are now up on CalgaryFoos based on the info I had. If you think someone else should be added let me know.


Author: S. Edwards Reply #15 Posted: Apr 16 2008 10:29PM

Thank God no one has voted for me, I couldn't stand the pressure


Author: University of Foos Reply #16 Posted: Apr 16 2008 11:02PM

I threw a vote in for you Simon just to turn up the pressure.
