Chris Keen Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 Here are the newest stats for the Ohio match. As you can see we now have our minimum 5 shooters registered in Revolver, so that division will now be recognized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Are you going by a minimum for class wins as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 Yeah, minimum 5 in a class for a plaque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose Brass Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) Looks like we need 1 more "B" class in SS Edited April 5, 2011 by Loose Brass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel1212 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Personally I think 5 per is to much. You would have to have 15 in a class just to get a 3rd place. Plaques are cheap spread the love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaques are cheap spread the love Hey, don't shoot the messenger. But IMO if plaques are so cheap, you can go to the trophy store yourself and get one made to say whatever you like. Me .... ?

Chris Keen Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 Exactly my point! Why would I go get one myself when I can win one because they are CHEAP! Maybe I worded that incorrectly ...... if we gave a plaque to every other shooter who showed up, what's the point of that? Even with a 3:1 ratio it still only means you beat 2 other shooters in your class to get that plaque. The 5:1 ratio is tough, but it's currently the official USPSA recommended policy in Appendix A2 of the rule book for Level I and Level II matches, and it shows you've truly proven yourself amongst your peers.

Chris Keen Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 3:1 or 5:1 you still won your class, you still beat others in your class. Your not giving a plaque to every other shooter that shows up, your only giving out 3 plaques, 1st-3rd. You have to have 9 for 3rd with 3:1 but with 5:1 you have to have 15 just to get a 3rd place plaque. You guys can do what you like but not everybody plays for HOA just remember that. I know what you're saying Corey, but again I don't call the shots on that. I'm just stats and registration. I can talk to the MD and see what his opinion is on this subject. Dan is relatively new to running major matches, so I think he's doing his best to not make any "mistakes", and therefore he's trying to alot of things "by the book". But as you can see in appendix A2 the 5:1 ratio is simply a recommendation from USPSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also remember A2 says that its a recommendation to have 5 to recognize the class, doesn't mean you have to go every 5 after that. Just a thought.

dcarter Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Corey, Would 5 to recognize the class and 3 for 2nd and 3rd make you happy? Would you like a little cheese with that wine? All you have to do to win "your" award is beat Shaun. I'll think about it and get back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said in my earlier post not everybody is playing for HOA like Shaun, Me, Chris might be. Just messin with ya. I asked Chris the other day how I should handle awards and I am still debating how to handle it. Let's put it to a vote...... Everyone who wants to see awards after HOA go by 3's vote "Three". Everyone who wants to see awards after HOA go by 5's vote "Five". We did pick up another sponsor. Rumpke is now a silver level sponsor and we will have 6 restrooms available in addition to the one we already have and the 2 in the club house. So everyone should have no problem staying "light of foot". Edited April 6, 2011 by dcarter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Santiago Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Three. Like Corey said, not everyone plays for HOA and for the mortals who don't do a lot of traveling to matches, it's something to play for. Good pickup on Rumpke! You can never have too many restrooms. Has anyone ever put a 'Safe Area' close to a rest room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Yeah, HOA is the goal. LOL. All I have to do is beat the national champion. No problem right? Right. I just hope to have as much fun as I did last year. Last year I shot a borrowed FGW gun, this year I'll have my own, hopefully.

whitedog Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 In my case HOA stands for hope over ability. I would vote 3 for the awards. Good deal with rumke Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarter Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Even if we went by 3's I am still 1 short in "A" class Production from getting one. At least for now. If we do go by 3's I will have to limit it to about 5th place in a class. I can't spend all my money on awards!
