Yeah, my college Biology professor for one and it's not even necessarily that all germs aren't bad. Your skin and especially your hands and fingers emit oils that protect your pores from allowing bacteria in. Washing too often washes away those protective oils.

Never know about teachers. My second grade teacher taught us that there was clean dirt and dirty dirt amongst other things!

Its been a long time since I've stopped by but I hope everyone is doing well. I received notice that Vimeo is discontinuing its Video On Demand service in November and all access to anything anyone has bought will go away. This is not my choice it is something the hosting platform has decided to do despite me paying yearly to maintain the service.

I have set all of the PPV videos to be able to be downloaded by anyone who has bought them. Just wanted to give people a heads up that if you have ever bought any videos and would like to keep them you should go download them before November 21.

Going forward I don't know what I will do with the videos that were on Vimeo. All of them have music that would get nuked by Youtube so not sure thats an option. If there is an option on Vimeo to just make them all public I'll probably do that but I have not gotten that far yet.

I'll check back on this thread over the next few days if anyone has any questions but the above is pretty much all the info I have from Vimeo. I can't answer any support questions on downloading or anything regarding the platform that has to go to Vimeo customer service.

Thanks to everyone who was around back in the TAR days. We had some good times.

FYI, Vimeo is discontinuing their VOD (Video on Demand) service, but they have an alternative service called OTT (Over The Top) that works almost exactly the same way. I recently converted all my instructional products to the new service. It was a painful process, but people can still purchase and download my instructional videos just like before. If you want to see my “before” and “after” pages and the notes I added for my customers, check out these pages:

I also played Predator Carom table. I don´t know who makes(maybe SAM billiards?) it but i liked it a lot. Gabriels is the best what all say though..
Royal Pro suck ass imo. Simonis 300 or 330 or Gorina are best ones.

Royal pro isn't bad and in my experience, it changes less over time than Simonis 300 or granito.

Royal pro is also ~1/3 the price of Simonis.

I really like the top end Min table. Hollywood tables are top shelf too and it seems they've pursued the American market over the past years, as they are I a lot of rooms.

Well I just wrote a some stuff that was wrong - which I’ve now erased!

Dr Dave’s testing showed that new out of the box balls throw slightly less than used balls, a fair bit less than balls washed with dish soap or alcohol and more than ones cleaned with Aramith cleaner. The ones cleaned with Aramith throw less than either new balls or used balls.

Here is the chart. The measurements for new out of the box is not on the chart but earlier he measures it at 7”.

It depends on the “box” and the company and whether the balls are waxed before shipping (which should not be done). I have seen brand new “out of the box” balls throw very little at first (because a waxy polish was used). The problem with this is as the wax starts rubbing off different parts of the balls during play, throw become a bit erratic and unpredictable.

I had to turn off the audio of some of the WNT/Matchroom US Open coverage because they invited the 'great guy' Joe Rogan to sit with the commentators and make inane comments. At the beginning of one of the matches he even referred to FSR as SFR, before I turned the sound off. I have no idea how much worse it got after that.

Speaking of that coverage... does anyone know of a place where I could watch the end of the FSR v. Capito final? The ESPN streaming service cut off the broadcast when ESPN2 switched to a different event, and the score was 9-8 FSR I think.

If moderators want to move it, I am fine because I have no clue where this might fit best

I just hope that I get more replies, as they are quite scarce after the first week. Maybe when people read my rules more carefully or played with some of them. I thought maybe I get more rules in here as well, or people might correct me on some mistakes which I may have made on the existing ones so far. I proof read it like 3x already, but I have over 700 rules there, and English is not my mother tongue as well, so I assume I must still have missed a few of those. I also struggled with understanding a few of the old rules before 1900, because of the older English and the used letters in the books. So I will happily take any criticism and help in getting errors out as well!

So far I did not think about an App. I am a Desktop Web App developer for work. That‘s my usual environment. I struggled a lot already with getting good mobile support into it as well. Still have to improve the website and learn new stuff to make it better. I never made any Apps, and as this is a different kind of technology, I am not sure what the workload would be to make one as well. My website is designed in a way though, to have something like game datasheets, which then get interpreted and displayed. So I would only need an App frontend for it, however hard this might be. And I have no clue about any invovled things like App security, device compatibility ,…
