It's remarkable that so many people seem to love Ultimate (British)Pool for the time format, but that is exactly what happens. Same for heyball.

I don’t love it, but at least they have a shot clock throughout the match. A time limit without a shot clock is a much bigger issue, IMO.

Of course with a shot clock, most of the time issues disappear (although you still can have games with safety battles that bog down). To some extent the loss of game for intentional fouls also speeds things up (but I also don’t like that).

time limit on a match is wrong. cant everyone see that. you punish a player that may not have done anything.

Did any matches at the DCC this year run into the time limit rule? Here it is:

The player that is leading in the game and ball count wins the match at 3 hours. If both players are tied in the game and ball count, the next player to take the score lead (games plus ball count) wins the match. (This score lead can be determined by pocketing a ball or a foul shot)​

Well I see 4 pages but only read 1. The gold nugget I got from a top Portland player, he called "The Big Eye". First.....Imagine the shot.
When what I saw down on the shot matched the image, fire at will. 🤷‍♂️ Imagine success while imaging kind fits the power of positive thinking. But I never read that book. 🤷‍♂️

That's how it starts. All good until you start to notice the fail points. Incidentally, the devil cornered success so you got that to deal with as well...:ROFLMAO:

...have dropped an expensive piece of chalk down the pocket of a Diamond table.

I have done it about three times and have been able to retrieve two. Now, I've kinda trained myself to be more careful but sheet-at happens. Just a couple of days ago a brand new piece of green Pyro came tumbling down the ball return -- so sad for someone but then I'm just around break even, lol.

Hi Lou. Diamond needs to make access easier. I bet the average is over 20 chalks inside every commercial Diamond table. Save the chalks! 😆

Thank-you.

The table was missing one diamond when I bought it, and I wasn't planning on saving them. I printed new circular inlays out of copper-filled PLA with black diamonds inset. Keeps with the theme of the table colors. I painted the rails, then re-cut the pockets on my mill. This was the most stressful part of the build, but a brand-new carbide cutter resulted in no chip-outs. I shot four coats of 2k clear after. It worked out well, but that is 100% the part that would be the toughest to do without having a good way to cut the pockets. If I didn't have the mill or at least a good drill press, I would have likely compromised and used some kind of overlay before clear coating. Happily, I didn't have to resort to that.

Can you share a pic of your rails with the new diamond inserts 😁
