Elianna Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 How abt Dec 27, 2008 Saturday (TURKEY 22.30pm) please ? :) If I converted well :USA New York 15.30pmSouth Africa 22.30pm USA Central time 14:30pm USA Eastern 15.30pmUSA Mountain 13.30pmUSA Pacific 14.30 pm Adam and I MIGHT be able to play (sometimes I have to direct at last minute's notice). I quoted these times because I believe that the US pacific time is wrong: it should be three hours behind NY, so 12:30pm. All the others are consistent with that conclusion. I mention this because I want to make sure that it is the Pacific that is incorrect, and the others are correct (and not the other way around). In other words: Do you mean choice 1: NY 15:30, US pacific 12:30 or choice 2: US pacific 14:30, NY 17:30 (and thus 5:30pm)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnneM Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I might point out that there are five Regional Tournaments going on between Xmas and New Years in the USA, so lots of ftf tournament action. That's where I will be - Reno!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_KARLUK Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I thank to Elianna. NY 15.30pm is a FIX hour. So Pacific 12.30 is correct. (10 hours behind from Turkiye) Choice 1 is OK. Sorry for mistyped. Another idea : I can open the registration five days before dead time and post tournament number here. So forum members may check everything goes well or not. That would be also easy to correct if i am mistaken.

the hog Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I think Boom Boom Boom is not a good name; certainly not in Asia. I would have to choose my partner very carefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_KARLUK Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I think Boom Boom Boom is not a good name; certainly not in Asia. I would have to choose my partner very carefully. John Lee Hooker is a semi god american music idol. He introduced many people with blues. He deserves a respect at least for "boom boom boom, things gonna change" hit. He did things absolutely right in his expertise territory till the moment he died. [born August 22, 1917-08-22 Coahoma County, Mississippi,United States; Died June 21, 2001 (aged 83)Los Altos, California, United States] His last bow was Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lee_Hooker "His biggest UK hit, "Boom Boom", (originally released on VeeJay) had a horn section to boot!"Chicago Late 1961 - Boom Boom - Vee-Jay 438 (4/62) R&B #16 (VJ LP "Burnin'") FYI, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boom_BoomThere listed Boom Boom may refer to many things.

You know what they say : "Cool water, fish live. Hot water, fish escape." Please try to contact me on BBO to clarify how fun and innocent "boom boom" is misinterpreted "is not a good name especially in Asia". It might be something that you do not find suitable to post on forums. Good, it's politeness. Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the hog Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 No "boom boom" means to f**kYou don't use this in polite company anywhere in Asia. boom boom boom means to have a double, or a sandwich if you like. (Sex with 2 ladies).Btw my original comment was meant as tongue in cheek, but I suspect that due to a language problem it was taken literally.Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
