Hi everybody,

I'm really sorry that I didn't get to this before, but after the match I went back to my real life and started preparing for my next trip in 8 days to run the European Cup in Italy with Frank Glover.

I apologize because I didn't pay too much atention when Rick explained me the point system for the Teams at the Triple Crown, I just loved the idea of having a team of MM with the same chance to win against a team of MA, only as a team, of course.  I think this motivates lots of people to start shooting together with their friends no matter what...!!!

Regarding the extra points for the SO's I must agree with Chris: that is not right. The whole idea is to recognize the shooting performance, not the hard work.  Please don't get me wrong, I LOVE my SO's and only this group of friends would have stayed there for two days under a heat index of over 120F.  As a recognition for their hard work, the SO's get their match fee waived and, in the future when we financially reach the break even point, we would also like to cover their hotel expenses. However, I don't think it is right to "score" their work at the match. Performance and collaboration are two different things.

Rick is out of pocket now and he is the wizard of our website.  I'll try to upload the correct scores for the Teams ASAP myself but meanwhile, here they are:

Team PRO ARMS = 46 points
Team TSSA = 46 points
Team SQUADRA ITALIANA = 39 points

I'm really sorry, I apologize for any mistakes we may have made with the Teams as it is a new concept in IDPA. This is our first match and only God knows I'm trying to do my Best...

BTW, my lovely wife helped me write this, you know my English sucks...  and for that matter, so do my Italian, Spanish & Portuguese
