15. soup dragon 2.04 points
16. nick 1.86 points
17. RHYS J 1 POINT
18. sam 0.52
19. tom +0.5

so with only 1 round remaining the park challenge looks like 4th will go to tangy 2-1 andrew c 5-1 or ryan 16-1 if can do the same as last saturday rhys sam and tom will have to rely on some one not turning up to qualify for the top 16.

special probs to matthew nozza jnr with an impressive 6 wins to rocket up the table

So with one round left to decide the seedings im going to make clear the championship final decider.firstly the date jan 17th random round 3 date which i presume the berc has set in stone now?

firstly i will send messages out to all players that have amassed points throughout the year they get priority to play higher up in seedings means u get first choice ie kevin first etc the doubles championship will be decided first.

firstly the pairing whom wins the darts doubles u can make arrangements to hold the cup 6 months at a time or random round 1 might be a good idea to hand back over?

1. seeding 1-4 u are exempt from the drawing seedings 5 to at moment 19 will be drawn out of a bag at either the start of the games or at the end of event park challenge depends on my attendance for that one? so whomever from players 5-19 gets drawn out first will partner kevin presumably. then second gets peter and so on.

2. If you decide not to attend say person 16 nick at moment your place will be given to the 3 people below you if they attend obviously 17 gets first choice. this also applies to either of the top four seedings if u are not there for the drawing number 5 tangy at moment wil get ur seeding this even applies to me lol!

3. all decisions are made by me a new rule only when getting down to 2 or double 1 by both teams a 5 throw rule by all people at either double 1 or split 11,s if nobody has made either of these two possibilities after 5 throws then nearest the bull thrown by all 4 people will count to the winner pair to cut down the time spent.

4. on final doubles day depending on how many people actually there prelim rounds will be set to get down to 2,4,8 people etc

5 on singles championship if there is time to do this if not they will take place at random round 4 date! the top 8 seedings are only in the championship if u are number 9 for example glen at moment u will have to hope somebody from 1-8 is not there or has to leave early for whatever reason if u have to leave a darts game u will be defaulted loss.

[palkanetoijala31]

in regards to park challenge my attendance which wasnt is now a yes so now my odds of retaining 4th place are now 2-1 so ryan will also go out to 100-1

1. seeding 1-4 u are exempt from the drawing seedings 5 to at moment 19 will be drawn out of a bag at either the start of the games or at the end of event park challenge depends on my attendance for that one? so whomever from players 5-19 gets drawn out first will partner kevin presumably. then second gets peter and so on.

What happens if more than 8 people are playing in the pairs finals? Do those remaining in the bag get drawn then partner each other?

[palkanetoijala31]

from what i can see from the attendance list kevin is that there is 13 players im not including orange one or rhys b as dont like darts usually.

so it would work like this because its not like a usual darts doubles where the bull is played to determine where u are kevin,peter,nozza and myself would be exempt from the draw.

the remaining 9 players would then get drawn out of the hat number 1 drawn with kevin 2 peter etc. after my partner has been drawn the remaining 5 players would then get drawn leaving one player on his own.

so u have 6 pairings and 1 on his own whomever 5 pairing and 6 paring are play each other first to leave 11 players and the lucky loser after bull gets put back in to make 12 team with remaining person. team 5 and 6 get bye into the semi finals the final 8. teams 1 to 4 the seeded teams will then play each over decided on bull throwing by one person in each team which whom plays who.

that will leave 8 players for the semi finals top seeds will play the lowest etc down to the final 4.

Not sure that works, why do team 5+6 get a bye and not teams 1+2?

The normal method for 13 players would be

Team 4 v Team 5
Team 3 v Team 6
Team 2 v 13 + LL
Team 1 v Bye

then Semis and Final.

yes thats the normal rules peter as explained this is not normal doubles rules otherwise the ranking system used is uneccessary for whole year this is the doubles final where the pairings are not drawn equally for example kevin might get the worst player etc apart from the lucky number 13 whom technically gets lucky unlike the number only has to win once to get to final. thats my rules and its final so in a way last out of the hat is lucky.

[greatkingrat]

Looks like it will be at most 12 now anyway as Nick is out.

the other reason technically is that u me and nozza are at a disadvantage straight away as we cannot be paired with kevin.

the only way around that is to have numbers 1-4 in a hat and the first drawn out gets a bye but its too complicated

[palkanetoijala31]

so after a tense final this years winners of the tcdl darts doubles are NOZZA & MYLES congratulations to them award ceremony next random 15 event plus the singles final for the top 8.

[nozzacook]

Do we know if myles made it home safely. Last seen westbound when we put him on a Rayners Lane Picc.

[Going Underground]

In case we fancy a change or even a pub with more than one dartboard (could be handy for the singles?) Some of the pubs on attached link may be of interest...

I imagine that a recon first might be an idea though....
