He'll be challenging you to a match if you're not careful.

I have no idea at all where Jacklin got her numbers.

Absolutely, she left her comment on her average up on FB, but deleted the screenshot that somebody posted contradicting this.
She got them from her own scoring of the game - every dart is worth double what it hits. Paula should be allowed to use her scoring system instead of the official one.
No, it would be impossible for her to win.
Well, yes, but that is more due to the fact she can't hit doubles than any scoring quirk.

In this case it is not. Please do not try to compare a throwaway line to the personal abuse Jamie has been subjected to on some forums.

There is a line (moveable) re disability. Mentioning a condition in a light hearted way is generally acceptable. Vicious abuse is not.
IMO there is a simple test that can be applied before words are typed: if I/my wife/husband/relative/friend had the condition would I be upset by what I am about to post?
It’s not difficult- it’s basic decency and empathy.

Ahh, so it wasn’t mocking or personal abuse. Thanks for clearing that up, Ian.

I probably had the best board draw in the tournament.

I'm shit at darts - no excuses however I can play a tad better than what I did.
