assaulter Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Are they really going down a list, or just cherry picking who they want? ETA- What I SHOULD have asked is "does anyone have a link to the list of 100 from last year?" Edited February 13, 2012 by assaulter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike cyrwus Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I have no doubt they are going down the list. We can joke about pro vs. semi pro vs. amateur; and how I could smoke more than half of the pros that are in the Pro tour with a mini14, hi point, and maverick, , but Pete and Chad would never do anything like go outside of their rules to pick who they wanted. Their integrity, in my opinion, is unquestionable. I hearby admonish you, assaulter, for hinting otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.E. Kelley Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Pro Tour Note: Competitors must respond and remit minimum payment of $300 postmarked by Wednesday, February 8th. After which, 3GN Pro Tour cards will be ordered. The balance of $350 will be due at the 3GN Pro Series Event #1 (St. Augustine, FL) match registration March 30th. All remaining available slots will be offered to the remaining shooters from the top 100 after February 8th. It looks like only the top 100 will be considered and I would bet in order of finish. This first year MAY have a short field. So be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The origin of my question lies in the fact that the ranking list of last years series is gone from the website, so it's impossible to see where people were at. I didn't think about how that came across until you pointed it out. My aplogies for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stlhead Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 If they are unable to get the 64 they want from the top one hundred list they should pick and choose whoever the heck they think will make for interesting TV. Just as an example, imagine adding Ted Nugent, the double rainbow guy, or possibly Flavor Flav. I would TIVO that for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyNo! Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 While we're all jumping to conclusions, it could be possible that some of the people on that list are volunteers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadeslade Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Yeah, booy!! Flavor Fav would definitely boost the ratings, not so sure about Ted, The Flavor knows his guns and he always knows what time it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gose Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Have any of the people making the baseless accusations of impropriety considered how much you are insulting all the shooters who busted their ass and made list I dont think there's any impropriety going on, just a less than ideal information flow. 3GN should know by now that a lot of people are watching and analyzing to death every piece of information that comes out, or gets posted on their web site. I really wish they stopped posting, or releasing, half-finished lists or information, especially without any more real substance attached to it. Things usually come together in the end, but it usually takes some firefighting by someone from the 3GN team.

On page 11 post # 261 there is a link to a list of shooters. Several of which I thought (correctly so) were not in the top 100 but I couldn't find the other "list". I THOUGHT that the link to the profile page was a list of the pro shooters for 2012. Clearly I was wrong. I wasn't trying to offend anyone. So everybody take a deep breath and if I've hurt some feelings feel free to approach me at any match that I shoot and point out that I owe you a beer....or three.

Lead-Head Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) If there is beer being offered as reparations for being offended... I am very offended and I have been since the begining of this enitre string of posts. I have not been this offended since yesterday when someone implied that drugs might have been involved in Whitney's death...the nerve!

Doug H. Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I'm just happy to see that 3GN put together something for all different levels of shooters, instead of just the guys at the top. They obviously put alot of time in working this whole thing out and it's not perfect but it is better than what we had before, which was nothing. I'm looking forward to Semi-Pro and you can get points for shooting any division (FREE OPEN NOW!). By the way assaulter, I too am offended, to the extent that I will require several beers to make me feel better. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokshwn Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I wasn't picking out anyone comment in particular, just pointing out that a good number of the comments questioning the process (whether intentional or not) took away from the accomplishments of many of those who made the top 64. Not to mention took away from the amount of work Pete, Chad, et al have done to make this happen. That being said, I will take my beer in the form of a nice bourbon, and on the subject of Chuck Anderson......NOBODY likes that guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
