Not even a BDO ranked event is it?

They are definitely over compensating now.

Seem to be doing a good job of covering ranking tournaments to me.
Hope it continues.

Never knew it was ranked, I stand corrected!

It's still over compensating though. Nowt for weeks and now you are getting blow by blow updates from anything going.

I think you are over compensating on how they are over compensating. Three times now you mentioned it :)
The only thing I worry about is how long will it continue.

A flash in the pan. Or are they really committed to improve communications and social media presence.

Still don’t understand how a County can have a World Ranked event.

Should be countries only that can have World Ranked Events.

Because its based on prize money and then any personal grudges feuds or allegiances from the BDO directors to the organisers I doubt they even look at the name of a Tournament when sanctioning them for points.
