The OOAK table tennis forum has started some fun little competitions recently with a prize (free rubber or blade) for the winner. The challange of this first competition was to write a funny poem about the OOAK forum itself. Congrats to member JimWeiland who won the first competition, and his poem was:
Away across the ocean where the kangaroo calls home,
And the emus and koalas and the wild dingos roam,
Lies the online info Mecca for us table tennis folk,
It's run by HaggisV (a most accomodating bloke).
It's called OOAK, and if you should need advice,
Here's information for you that's both expert and precise.
The much-maligned dark sider, he will find a haven here,
The short pip and the anti guys can post stuff without fear.
And even welcomed are inverted players (yes, it's true!);
From seasoned pros to ping-pong nubes--this web site is for you!
They've got top-notch equipment that will much improve your game,
And forums where the guys will teach you how to use the same.
The names are strange, but worry not, on them you can rely,
Whether the guy's named Hookshot, Reb, Fattchoi or Tatlwei,
Or Silver, Speedplay, Metal Monkey, Dwruck, Dingwol2,
Mynamenotbob, or Grumpy Joe--you'll learn a thing or two!
So, whether you're a looper, blocker, chopper or EJ,
Get on the web and find the OOAK site today!
You can read the other entries and details in the thread here, there were some other really good ones too!
Competitions will be run monthly, and the next one will start shortly. So if you want to be part of a bit of fun with fellow table tennis enthusiasts, check it out and you might even win something in the process...
