Re: Why players think i am a fake account

their best mate that they play a lot is a high level, so their rating doesn't improve much Actually, the ÉLŐ rating system does a good job even if someone plays only his mate. If that mate is higher rated, most of the games will be won by the mate but only a few points are awarded each time. From t...

Re: Why players think i am a fake account

Don't even think of missing on purpose. You play your best and if the opponent doesn't like it too bad that's their problem. This is always going to be an issue with any game where you have some smarts, and you win games at a low level until you get to where your real level is. Some people can see t...

Re: League

Sounds good. Not many use this forum at the moment may need to throw the idea around in the game chat to get a few interested. Any thoughts on number of players to make it worth a go?

Re: Well done to all involved

Hey, Connor, I guess it depends on what you call the old version. I have been playing online since 2003 or thereabouts. Hit me up in the game if you see me and thanks for the comments. I believe these guys have it right and they are making sure it going to be spot on before they go with the full pai...

Re: Report a bug all the reds are now black

Just guessing but there are 14 blacks there. Is it maybe an issue with the black respotting? What ball was potted before this happened?

Re: Have you ever met anyone in real life?

Got together with a mate from the UK who was visiting relatives here just North of Perth. Played a few frames on a real table and neither of us went great but he was clearly the better player on the night. Nice to catch up with someone I had played many times online and put a face to the name. I hav...

Re: Time wasters

Had a game with ALB last night (read flogging) and offered the 60 sec shot clock (after reading this post minutes earlier). Makes no difference to me I tend to play see it, hit it, sometimes to my detriment but 60 seconds is at least 40 secs longer than I usually need. Never been a fan of the shot c...

Have you ever played a recognised champion of the real game?

Along the same lines as my pal G have you ever met or played snooker with someone on the pro tour or a past pro player? How did that go? My uncle and I once beat Eddie Charlton and the state pool champion as a team in a double's exhibition match. That was way back in the late 70's / early 80's but I...

Re: Private chat need to select target each reply

Got a fast reply here to my friend's question. TAB key will auto fill with the last name messaged. INSERT key will give you the user who pm'd you last. In most cases it will be the same user, but the difference is last user you messaged versus last user who messaged you. Kudos @SquaredCue for the tip

Re: Switching lobbies

Just had alternate issues with switching back to main lobby after losing in tournament lobby (yeah, I know unusual, but it happens). Left table okay but selected main lobby several times got the green light, but it went nowhere. Had to log out and back in to get back to main lobby.

Good suggestion. We will have offline messages in the future where users can also receive optional news and other important notices.

My opponent has just experienced internet issues and I waited for some time before aborting the match. I was 1-0 up at the time in a best of 3 and disconnection happened midway through 2nd frame where I was in position to win then missed the key shot after opponent had disconnected.

Interesting read and no wonder I liked Eddie Charlton so much he won it 3 times when I was a fan watching it in the 70's and his last win in 1980. Learned a lot watching these guys play (not that you would know it now) but my real game was pretty good because of this show and what I took from it htt...

Alex Higgins was the best player to watch....he wasn`t the robotic player such as Davis or Hendry...but he invented shots on the spur of the moment, that other players wouldn`t dream of.

Favourite "real" snooker player of your lifetime

I'm turning 65 next month so I could name a few here and I will. Right now, and for the past 26 years or so I would have to say Ronnie O'Sullivan. Not purely because of that 147 he nailed in record time but that was the thing that made me sit up and go wow this guy's good. He's gone on to prove it m...
