God rest Alf Garnett and Prince Phil.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this.1205 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 16, 2020 2:22 pmThe PDC seeds all but one event (UK Open) they have.

Williams won the bull and the first leg in 18 darts with McKinstry having been unable to take out 81 with 6 darts.
McKinstry going crazy with his scoring again in leg 2. 86 after 9 darts, and took 7 darts from there.
Cruel draw for both of them. Q School really needs some kind of seeding.
Leaving aside the nightmare of how you'd actually go about seeding it, it is by it's very nature supposed to be cut-throat.
Some of the qualifiers have rankings on:
PDC OOM
PDC Challenge Tour OOM
BDO rankings
WDF rankings if they wanted to as well.
If it were winner takes all (e.g. Women's PDC World Championship qualifiers), it wouldn't be such a problem because theoretically the best player will win.
But with multiple winners each day and more people qualifying through a table, the random draw increases the negative impact of luck.
Firstly, I can't see any fair way of seeding this when you've got players coming who've spent the last 12 months playing in completely different competitions and under different organisations. If you can come up with a fair way of seeding it, fair play to you.
If the seedings are therefore arbitrary, and not based upon a meritocracy, then what's the point of having them?
Yes, with a blind draw you'll see your fair share of "unlucky" draws, but in my opinion that's preferable to stacking the deck with a seeding system which isn't fit for purpose.
Re: 2020 Q School
4-3 now. Didnt do so well with her throw there.
Re: 2020 Q School
imagine the slagging there would be if it was the bdo scoring system crashing, as it's the pdc wanky software going shits up because more than five people are looking at it, not a fucking whisper....
