Feb 12, 2017 Special Classifier Match Parabellum

[Coach]

No worries. Just wondering if i needed to shoot production vs. Single stack. Not that it matters, but my SS scores arent showing in the point series

Fixed

 

[Coach]

Doors will be open by 7:15 am. Hope to be shooting at 7:45 am.

 

[Coach]

Vivian is not a morning person so be gentle when signing in. If she gets fired up early we will all pay a price.

This is USPSA Should bring flowers

 

[Coach]

Thanks to the RO's and staff for all the help. Everyone's help with Vivian is also much appreciated. The scores are up on USPSA.

She yelled at me around 10

I saw where you were coming from

 

[riverman67]

The donuts did the trick for me.
I didn't even receive a harsh look.

 

[downrange72]

It was a brief scorning...but it made Coach's statement hold true. She is not a morning person. Lol

 

[rhino]

I missed it all!

 

[Who Dares Wins]

I enjoyed it, as ever!

I don't know if others noticed, but there was an amazing turn-around time with these classifiers.
Scores were posted shortly after the match on Sunday, fees were paid on Monday, and the classifiers
were processed with the update on Tuesday.

You youngins dont realize that when I started way back in 2009, 3 days was a fast turnaround. Rhino may have have got them submitted in 4 weeks

 

[Coach]

Practiscore has changed a lot. But the new President running USPSA has changed a ton of things at the home office for the better.

A friend of mine was active in USPSA / IPSC in the 90s before kids. Finally I got him back out last year and his mind was blown with being able to pull up match results on the ride home.

I shot with him a few times back then.

The regulars here are tired of my "in the old days" stories, but it really is a lot different. Club matches were 3 stages, very few props or wall sections were ever used, and scores came in the USPS mail. And we only had two divisions (Open & Limited). When EZ Score debuted for MS-DOS, it was very helpful. Before that, you had to use a calculator and pencil unless you used a spreadsheet on your computer. Scores usually hit the mailbox about a month after the match. For WVPPS, we did a newsletter each month and the scores were a part of it.

Ahh the good old days huh Joe.
I still shudder thinking about making copies and folding and stapling and putting on address labels and stamps every month for every shooter.

Life goals. To be hated by the Rhino

Indeed! I still remember trying different labels and stickers to close the newsletters so they would go through the USPS undamaged. The clear plastic worked the best. I was a GM newsletter and paper scores guy, D-class shooter!

I'm still a little disappointed that I was never asked to join Team Turtle!

Another good thing about the old days: no downrange72!
