Wild Bunch Awards

[evilroy]

The WB awards will be at the same time as the CAS match.  I believe the side match awards are on Friday night and the main WB match awards on Sunday with the CAS awards.

Will the scores be posted on the board and the web site at the same time or are we gonna have to wait days again.

There is definintely discussion on what occured last year.

 

Can't say the final outcome, but pretty darn sure that will not occur again.

 

Just sayin.

 

 

Evil Roy is the main guy on all this stuff.

 

Sure it should be handled.

 

Thanks

 

PM me there please Mr. Stone.

 

Thanks

I will e-mail Zak and ask him to post the WB scores at the same time the CAS results are posted.  Is that what you are referring to ?

[Wild Bodie Tom]

Gene,  I will be in contact ya after Bordertow,

 

Have fun!!!!!

I don't know who ordered the top 10 awards for WR but the buckles were top shelf; something I would actually wear.  (To say the ones give out at EOT were disappointing would be an understatement.)  I hope that WR keeps up their high standards.

We are going to try to keep the standard high.  I am trying to get decent side match trophies as well but always a  work in progress.  On that subject we need more sponsors for the Main match and side matches.  The problem is the WB matches are still step child status and a drain on revenues.  We need for them to make money on WB.  I bought trophies for the first few years at WR and they were real good at working with me to get something nice.  EOT would not accept my offer after the first year as they did not want me to dictate what trophies they give and who they gave them to. At that time there was a fight over even awarding the Overall. The awards this year for the side matches at EOT were $1 trinkets totally unworthy of winning a side match at the World Championships.

I got off a message to Zak about posting scores.  I will let you know the reply.  I'm sure it was just an oversight last year.

[Joe Lafives 5481L]

I can post the final scores whenever the WB committee asks me too.  It has been the policy to post the final results  AFTER the awards ceremony so as to keep it a "surprise" but I really don't have an issue either way.  Just let me know.

[evilroy]

Joe,

 

I think what everyone is talking about was the WB final scores with stage times were not posted on the board or on the website when the CAS ones were.  Also I am not sure the daily scores were on the board.  I am pretty sure I could not look up the WB final scores on the website to see how I did time wise on the stages and I am not sure they wee on the board after the awards.  Someone chime in as my memory of this is not good. I could have the details wrong.  I think it should be handled exactly the same as the CAS part.

[Boggus Deal]

If I remember correctly, the stage times were posted on the bulletin board as I remember looking at them and not thinking I did that well. They were not posted on line for several days, though.

[Wild Bodie Tom]

Just so all know. There was a problem that needed resolvement in the scoring system itself. That was why the delay.

Involved the Overall and Class interaction with the program at the time.

To the best of my knowledge, it has been fixed.

 

Thanks

Tom:  That is correct.  The daily scores were up and we posted the final on Sunday but there was a problem with the scoring system for the final.  When would you all LIKE to have the final scores up?

[Wild Bodie Tom]

Get with Evil Roy for that decision. When I spoke to Zak at Bordertown, he assured me that whatever the WB committee gets with him on, will be done.

As long as they communicate well, which seems to be the case at this time, there should be no issues moving forward. Please remember that WinterRange is and has been the SASS Cowboy National Championship, and remains one of the premier matches in the world.

  Adding the WB National to it provides a good "draw" to perhaps holding it at another time or place. There is definitely a captive audience so to speak tying it to WinterRange. However, it does add lots of effort and work to a already very busy event. So, if we want it to be what we want it to be, we need help from the WB folks to make that happen. So stand ready to offer a hand as Gene will be needing some help.

Just sayin.....

 

Thanks
