I found i took absolutely ages to warm up though (like maybe half an hour) but once i did i was throwing way more consistently and was probably around a 50-60 average then perhaps. But i could go on runs of a few legs with 15-21 darts by the same token. Consistency was the big issue for me. So many darts into 1 or 5 or even 12 or 9, so frustrating.

However there's sites that rely on trust only, basically you just input the score you got and so does the opponent. This is how we did it when we had boards.ie tournaments. I don't see the point in cheating! Here's one website where you don't need a webcam for some games. A huge variety of standards too:https://nakka.com/n01/online/

Even if they were it made no odds to me; i was trying to improve my game by playing and expected to lose most games anyhow. Cheating myself never crossed my mind either even after i'd thrown about 20 darts at a double because like you said.... whats the point??!!

Average now would generally be between 42-50...Have played players than can barely hit a single 20 and lads averaging 80 per game. So much fun when you're playing well, such a frustrating game playing badly. Without a camera it isn't great waiting for players and slightly off putting as you can't get a rhythm going.

Officer999 wrote: » Hi, looking at getting a tripod myself off them too. Is it the €70 one you ordered? Don’t see any others online there. I guess the Dart board needs to be ordered separately?
D.Q wrote: » Yeah the 70e one, unicorn dart mate tri or something like that. Board was separate, and the surround also separate. Tbh the stands all seem to be the same, they're just repurposed PA Speaker stands. I got the stand, a blade 5, a surround, a set of darts and a few spare flights stems etc for 210e on 501darts. Will probably get one of those lighting systems in a week or two they look slick

Kingp35 wrote: » We would probably need at least 8. We could have two groups of four then. I'm happy to organise it but it would need to be next week. I think we had one match played every 3 days the last time to give players time to organise a when they would be free. It doesn't have to be only one every 3 days though if you can organise more. There was some leeway if someone had an honest excuse that they couldn't play in that time frame but if they didn't then they forfeited the match. On what website are these leagues played on and how do you join? It's something I'd be interested in.
celt262 wrote: » Yep its brillant I normally play Friday nights and have a few cans. Will give you a game no bother.
