Mostly www.dartsforum.co.uk (which closed down in early 2016, I believe) and The Stars of Darts forum (tsod.tv) that was previously known as The Superstars of Darts.sennafan24 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2024 10:24 pmWhich forums did you post on before joining here?PT13 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2024 10:21 pm This particular forum that we're on right now was pretty notorious for years for being virtually unmoderated as I recall, i.e. Justin Credible's domain.

I initially lurked on TSOD and DF.

I think I lurked a few times on tdf.co.uk. I seem to recall there was a Mardle fanatic on there who tracked all his averages.

The creation of this place seemed to annoy some people quite a bit. I don't remember reading that before.

Re: 2005 Masters of Darts
It was made funnier because at the time he was an admin on Dartsforum.co.uk and the owner of that forum had registered the domain name Double Finish.co.uk to try and direct traffic towards Df.co.uk and Brett totally failed to see the irony of this situation.
Edit - I see MH mentions this on the first page of that thread.

Re: 2005 Masters of Darts
Would have been better promoting the name 'Darts Corner' than this.

Colin Lloyd was the PDC's world number 1 and lost all 4 of his matches to the BDO players. Mardle also lost all 4 of his matches, although gave more of a fight. Scholten lost to Barneveld and Fordham, but beat Stompe and David. Scholten then lost to Fordham again in the semi final. Taylor won every match of course, beating Barney twice and Fordham twice.
The talk going into the event from some people was that Barney was better than Taylor, going by their 2005 World Championship performances. Taylor beat Barney 4-0 in sets in the group stage at the 2005 Masters of Darts (in February 2005), and then 5-2 in sets in the semi final. His wins over Fordham were 4-2 and 7-1, just a few months after their head-to-head showdown at the Circus Tavern.
How did you know about this tournament at the time. Online?
Because I had no clue about it until years later.
PDC vs. BDO was such a big thing back then.
I only started visiting darts forums a few years later.
I only really visited Bobby George's blog![]()
