How was the turnout this time around? |
| ||
|
The turnout could have been better but it was fun and challenging. Some good matches. |
| ||
|
Update are being posted now... I should have most of them up shortly after 9pm |

|
The majority of the results have been posted. http://www.calgaryfoos.com/index.php/foosapalooza-2008 If anyone knows the Semi-Pro Doubles results as well as Novice Doubles and Rookie Doubles let us know. |

I thought playing FIVE 5-4 games against Ang and Ivor was stressful but the drive home was insane. About 30 cars in the ditch and thats not an exageration. |
| ||
|
Well at least you made it back Christian |
| ||
|
The drive was way less stressful than having Dave (tourrets) Ahn on your team  |
| ||
|
Ya, sorry I sucked ass Simon |
| ||
|
how did you make out in the money match with Tony? |
| ||
|
it went well. Christian, I believe I still owe u $5. How would u like to settle up? |
| ||
|
Make sure you're there next year lol. I'm sure I'll see you around sometime. |

OK, fixed the slow loading of pages with Videos for now so if you had problems with some pages they should work better. I have also provided a link to a MP4 video of the Open Doubles final where Ang and Ivor double dipped Eric and Greg. Summary (Kent's View) 1. Ivor and Ang played great defense in goal and 5-bar. 2. Some issues (13:32) in regards to comments made during the match but it was not the real reason Eric and Greg lost. Yes there should have been a penalty or two called but watching the match I just think defense made the difference. Quiz How many times was Eric blocked in the second match in game 4? It is near the end of the video. How to View the MP4 Use the latest quicktime or download VLC player for Windows. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ If requested I can provide a high quality video (High-Def) of the final. Oh yeah first time trying to use my new camera so yes I could have done a better job but heh we have a video. Kent |

Oh yeah, this is hosted off of my home server so it could take a while to download since it is 251MB. If someone knows where to host it in the same quality (MP4) go ahead. Kent |

If i remember correctly, most of the blocks in the 4th game came at that 3-2 point. that took forever. ang scored eventualy. I'm downloading it now. I love to watch my matches. I always learn so much Its always interesting to see the differences between what you remember of the match, and then to see it on tape afterwards. Yea ivor blocked great - i had my chances. congrats to ang and iver, a well deserved win. lets see if i remember the final game correctly. they scored 2 points to get a 2-0 lead. one off a quick slow wall pass that was blocked back to ang's 3 i think. then we battled for a bit, and we got back to 2-2. I think i hit a couple of cut middles. they scored to go up 3-2 (not sure how). the 3-2 point went for a long time. I think i called one timeout in there somewhere. There was a bunch of discussion around ang's 'potty mouth' B-). i was only partially joking - i just wanted matt (who was reffing) to do something - earn a free shot or something on a technicial shot. it did not effect the match at all. ah crap my downloads stalled again. once i'm able to download them, and watchem, i'll post if there's anything interesting to add. |

I hope you were able to download it Eric. I have create another MP4 but only of game 4 which is 115MB. http://www.calgaryfoos.com/index.php/foosapalooza-2008 Good playing all weekend Eric, it was a pleasure to see how your game has improved. Yeah the foul language during a match is not right even it is not directed at another person. Not sure but you might be able to pick this up on the video. You can here it clearly when he scored that one time. Kent |

Thanks for the video Kent. Finally got a chance to watch it. Ang seemed to wait out the defense a little more than Eric. Good playing by all. |
