Bowers' Corner (2007 Ratings) February 3, 2007
Updates to 2007 Bowers' Rating Booklet (as of 2/03/07)
Arizona, California, Canada, Colorado, Indiana, New Jersey, Texas (13 Updates)
Arizona (2)
  • Paul Messina (change rating whole# and rank dec. #) to "3"  and "3.00" 
  • Linda Meyer (change rank dec.#) from to "1.89" to "1.86" - whole # rating unchanged.
 

California (1)

One new player was submitted twice with two different last name spellings.  To correct and merge these two: 
  • Max Cartire and Max Cartler should be combined to one:  Max Cartire is the correct spelling and Max Cartler is the correct overall rating.  Change last name spelling of Max Cartler (to Cartire) and delete the printed Max Cartire (which showed only one rater).   The rating data is correct on Max Cartler (but last name spelling should be changed to Cartire).

Update Pages in your Booklet:  The above changes are being made on the website (softcopy ratings booklet & sort files, as any changes come in throughout 2007).  There are two extra pages in the back of your booklet where you can make notation of corrections (and/or use during the year to make notes on unrated players, etc. to share with your raters before the 2008 ratings are compiled), so you can mark above changes (esp those that affect the whole# rating).  Any/all updates will be included in any re-prints of the 2007 Bowers Rating System booklets (if/when our current supply of booklets is depleted).
 
Softcopy Rating Info Summary:  We have provided the Bowers Ratings 2007 on our website in various sorts using Adobe PDF format.  Adobe is a free download from adobe.com (if not already installed on your system).  Adobe is user-friendly, searchable, and univerally used.  Other formats require software that one has to purchase if not already installed on their systems (such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft excel).  So to reduce workload, we provide 2007 Bowers Ratings in Adobe PDF format for those that have not requested a hardcopy booklet and/or wish to research the ratings by area, state, player name, rating, etc. via the various sorts posted on the website.  Note (Adobe Reader):  If/when you download a later version of the free Adobe Reader, it is usually recommended that you should uninstall any prior version(s) before installing the latest version.  Adobe files on our website are best viewed with Adobe Reader 5.0 or later versions.
