Again,Does it matter what my real name is? Perhaps I don't want to blast my real name out on a forum? Isn't that why we have handles in the first place? Also, what's the importance of knowing who I am- If you are interested in the match contact Jack Garret or David Wester. Posting match information and getting the word out is what's important, growing silhouette is what's important. Shouldn't really matter who's who....

So lets see, you are afraid to post your name but have not problem outing Jack, Mark, etc. Why does anyone want to hide behind an alias. Fun yes but at the end of the day own what you say and do. Everyone should stop hiding behind an alias.

Jack is the match director! He, not me listed his name in the flyer! Mark told me he knew you after I asked him, I didn't "out" him in the public forum, you just did in your reply.not that he would care. I sent you a private message explaining why I posted the flyer and who asked me to after you demanded to know who,what and why, after I talked to mark.

You also realize that names and such are searchable by Google ect ect and such right? Some of us would rather keep our names out of such search engines and leave a limited digital foot print, others have jobs that require it.

I'm done with this conversation, and it's all over posting a match notice.

Sorry you feel that way, I am sure the Russians already know who you are..... what an .....

And yes you did send me a PM but all you said was you are a friend of Mark's no name. Even in a PM you are afraid.

Oh yeah I am Dr Secret because I am scared because I am afraid to say who I am and what I believe.... Ohh Ohh I see my shadow....

My last post was a bit harsh, sorry. As was stated they are trying to protect their internet id. I too am trying to protect myself. The poster is new to the board and is posting what looks to be a legitimate match entry form. Unfortunately, I do know Jack but all I know about him is he lives in Texas. For all I know it is fraudulent and the individual posting just want my entry fee.

I could show up to the match and Jack would say,"Oh yeah, I was hacked and never received any money from you". While this would not bankrupt me, I do not want to just give my money away. So this is why, I wanted to know who is posting. Are they associated with the match etc. The internet if filled with hoaxes and I want to be careful.

So IMHO this has to be consider not a true date and time or match entry form. I will wait until the match is posted on the TSRA website.

Posted link to TSRA site for Texas match. I have not seen an early entry form for 2015.....contacted Jack (YES he is a real person) and was told bring it to range.
Few attended last year ~20 due to 'forecasted' storms....go figure, it was overcast, cool , light breezes both days, a very rare day at Coolidge.
