Finally, a win!

Nice 9-6 win this week over IPC Pinoy.

Andy and I did some fancy calculations at lunch today using our cell phones and the league statistics page. We found the winning percentages of each player this season as of this week. Thought you might like to see it: Ra 73% Andy 66% Dwayne 65% Kae Hoon 60% Taek 56% Enda 41% JB 27% Soon Bom 0%

Now, for the fines. JB lost game #5 straight -5,000 and -2,000 for two losses (great win against Jay Jay in between; Kae Hoon -2,000; Enda -2,000; and Dwayne -1,000. ha ha ha -- no fine for Ra or Taek. See the running total page. We are up to 52,000 in the kitty.

Another 8-7 Loss =(

I really like the table at Pub Scrooge.

Anyway, here are this week's fines:

Andy: -2,000 (2 losses)

Kae Hoon: -2000 (2 losses)

Taek: -2000 (2 losses)

Enda Yo Life: -1000

Dwayne: -1000

Ra: -1000 (The doubles match strikes again!)

JB: -6000 (Three in a row + 1 loss)

The running total has been updated.

11-4 over Friends the Pain | 10 September 2009 | Fines

Great game. 11-4. Now for the other news.
Wednesday's fines, lol:

Scratch on the break (Andy)

8 ball less than 3 ball lengths from the pocket (Ralph) *in my defense it was a very hard, nearly straight cut shot and not exactly in the spirit of the rule, but anything for drinks!

Losses (JB, JB, Enda, Enda, Dwayne, Ralph)

3 Straight losses (JB)

1,000 Won for each fine, except the 8 ball less than 3 balls lengths and 3 straight losses, which are -5,000 Won each. All totalled Andy -1000, Ralph -6000, Dwayne -1000, JB 2000, Enda -2000
= 12,000 for the drink kitty. purrrrrrr!

Two Cushion and Three Cushion Bank Shots

Note: every loss will be added up and cost the loser 1,000 won

A useful back up site

Here's a back up itaewon pool site when the main site is down. All it has is the schedule and the rules, but it's something.

Santa Mierda's Bonuses and Penalties (all paid to the drink kitty)

Ra!'s scribes have decreed that, to make things a little more interesting, we will have a few fines and bonuses for certain situations. Any monies collected in penalties will go to buying drinks. The rules are as follows:

The Good

• 8 ball run or break and run, everybody gives that player 10,000. Subsequent cases will be 3,000 per player (aka one drink)
• 8 ball in on the break, 1,000 from everyone.
• If you go up over 150 points at the end of the season, you get a drink from the captain. If you're the captain, someone on the team will buy one for you. =)
• If you go up over 100 points at any point in the season, you get a drink from the captain. If you're the captain, someone on the team will buy one for you. =)
• If you win both singles games, the losingest player that night will buy you a drink.

The Bad

• Scratch when shooting for the 8-ball, -2,000 (updated)
• Horribly distracting a player when he's shooting a crucial shot in the match, -1,000. (updated)
• Cue ball in on the break ("scratch" in other words, you pinche testaduro) costs you 1,000
• Every loss costs you 1,000
• If you lose 100 pts in the season, put 10,000 into the drink kitty.
• If you miss the 8 ball that is 9 cm (or 3 ball lengths) or less from the pocket, put 5,000 into the kitty. Feel free to curse yourself, your relatives, other players, and anyone within 15 meters of you.
• Lose three straight games, 5,000 won into the pussy.
• If you get a free ball and miss your shot, 2,000 won to the kitty.
• If your singles or doubles game lasts longer than 21 minutes, you have to buy a pitcher of beer for the Mierda team.
