Scoring Messup at the Chameleon Championship
« on: November 14, 2008, 12:26:34 PM »
The official scorer screwed up in the position round of the Chameleon Championship! Im watching the live feed on Xtra Frame and the official scorer had Eugene McCune's score wrong, giving him 20+ pins over what he should have gotten, and this was realized into the 8th frame, and now two of the matches have been restarted.

Dont know what the deal is as to how this happened, but Sean Rash now has a chance to make it to the telecast. He was bowling real bad before the score error was realized and now he gets to start over and has to shoot 255+ to make the telecast. I dont see how this is fair for the person who gets bumped out if Rash shoots that 255 but we will see what happens.

Great point Krakken, I agree with you 100%..

Machuga was screwed. I would have so much rather seen him on TV than Rash..

I was gonna root for Kretzer on the show, but I guess I'm going for Machuga now.

I would sue them.  Not like the PBA is worth much.  He could own them lol.

I'm sure the pba telecast will enlighten us all into what has occurred in the previous 1hr.

How can you discount his 256 game??? He was granted a reprieve and took full advantage of the situation.  Having to know what you need to shoot then willing yourself to do it...that is clutch.

Now the PBA did the right thing here.. Top 5 was the only way to get this one right even though Rash got lucky and got a second chance.. No doubt he bowled well but he should not of had that chance..

Question is, do we get to see all the matches or not?

Not discounting it, it was a great game, but he had 5 min of practice, 8 frames, another 5 min of practice on that pair.  Any pro would have had the shot figured by then and did well.  Were you watching?  He tripped like 3 5 pins, crossed over, and left a 2 pin on what could have easily been a 2-10 split.

Good for him he took advantage of a break he never should have gotten.  At least they didn't screw Machuga.

no...I did not watch. As I dont have strike pass.


On edit: If Sean wins the event I have a feeling the crowd that doesn't like him will grow...

KRakken, not sure what match you were watching....Rash didn't "trip" three 5 pins.  They were light hits and he slapped the pins around.  Definitely not bad shots.  Its not like he had a 5-7 standing and a pin came across and took both out.  

Just because you have 5 mins of practice, then bowl 8 frames, and then 5 more mins of practice....that doesn't mean you will shoot 256 when u need it.

Delutz only shot 220 and he bowled on the same pair as the previous game.  

Great bowling by Rash to make TV, and great decision by the PBA to make it a 5 man step ladder.

Needless to say most of the PBA bowlers were ver upset about the whole thing. However, to them it was just another week,they made it sound like this kind of thing is happening every week. The bowlers from what I heard definitly didn'tseem surprised or very pleased with the way the PBA is ran every week.

You must not have watched the match that he was bowling before because he was hitting the pocket every shot, he just kept 10 pinning.
