GOOD Idea Fonz some people just dont like to play fear hope your hand gets to feeling beter soon I have a joke i think every one woud like
A man was quietly reading his paper when his wife sneaks up behind him and whacks him on the head with a frying pan.
"What was that for?" he says. "That was for the piece of paper in your pants pocket with the name Mary Lou written on it", she replies.
"Two weeks ago when I went to the races, Mary Lou was the name of one of the horses I bet on", he explains. She looks satisfied, apologizes, and goes off to do work around the house.
Three days later he's again sitting in his chair reading when she nails him with an even bigger frying pan, knocking him out cold. When he comes to, he says, "What the hell was that for?" "Your horse phoned."

Fonz,

As a new member I think you have found the right balance here.Those who have been members for longer get what they want but new members should not feel "discriminated"(i know i dont).This new format should help to seperate the geniune from the fakes,though I sadly have to agree with you.....you wont get rid of the "ahole brigade" completely.Its definitely a step in the right direction.And I think the new members wont mind "working" to get thier approval.

PS Have met a lot of new people that I had never played b4.Only played two of these tournies so far and have seen a few pretty sound guys there already.Which is great(of course).

What if the band of aholes choose one person to get approved, and then tell all the aholes the password when they get it? haha sorry I have a tendency to overthink things.

Sounds like a good idea fonz, but will I be approved by then? Hopefully I will. I have the post requirement taken care of, but I don't know if I will be a member for the right amount of time when the freeroll comes around. Hopefully I will be and approved member by the freeroll. Either way, it still sounds like a great idea fonz.

I still dont get if i am an " approved member " am i one now or do i have to prove my self some how? By posting or by placeing? I really like what i see here at the texas forums and i also really enjoyed playing in the heat and look forward to the final but I am worried that i might not get to compete in the newer tourneys to come. Can anyone fill me in please?
I would be very grateful.

AddyL
