Careful Criticizing CSI Org

there is an in between size that works well not just, tight and buckets.

getting position is usually more important than making the shot into the hole if you think about it.

and very tight pockets severely limit ability to move the cue ball around in longer distances, for anyone but a very good player and it hurts them as well.

Best to Say Nothing at All?

This is helpful, I often defaulted to "good match" win or lose but it always feels weird when I win.

Often if it's a loss I'll say "good shooting" or "well played" or something.

But recently I've started using "good shooting with you" or "good playing with you" when I win and I think I'm going to stick with that in the future, much better than "good match" and takes the focus off performance.

Favorite/easiest diamond banking systems.

changing your stroke doesn't do a thing except maybe make you get a cleaner hit if that helps you.
changing speeds and english, changes where you need to hit the rail on your banks. that's judgement.

best for most to learn banks and understand them with no english, and at a constant repeatable speed first.

some inside on many banks will shorten them up so then they come more straight back. that gives a bigger pocket on certain ones.
hitting harder may do the same thing.
there are many variables.

Unaware of mismatched ball sets in upcoming tournament.

So this is a common thing then?? Learn something new every day. Thanks.
In the hall I'm thinking about, several balls in each tray are just a tad smaller, but seem heavier and older, by the looks of the numbers on the stripes.
I try to put those on the corners and head ball.
In my area it seems to be or at least the places I play at.
