    The group mentality is also human nature. We had to create rules in most TT clubs in the US to prevent this kind of stuff. Sometimes, there is a club appointed supervisor or kind helper who if he is correctly motivated helps with players who need to find matches - I for example will just play...
  6. USATT Rating Stats Page: what happened to it?

    The USATT felt that moving the site into a more modern age was more important than making sure that what was good in the old site was not lost. I didn't agree, but it is moot now. Since the people on the USATT are working very hard to improve the sport's profile in the US, I have generally...

  13. Swedish National Championships 2018

    Where is Truls Moregardh? Mattias is probably still injured.
  14. English National Championships 2018

    Training with each other on a regular basis negates form some times. Especially if he is not dominating his teammates in practice.
  15. European Players & Tacky Rubbers

    Yes, but Zeio probably doesn't know how bad US table tennis really is. And I was insulted.;)

  17. European Players & Tacky Rubbers

    Eugene Wang plays for Canada so what's your real point if any?
  18. European Players & Tacky Rubbers

    Hahahahahahahahaha!
  20. European Players & Tacky Rubbers
