... I would really appreciate AT LARGE's input concerning the adjustment factor for Poolology whether it exist or not. ...
Many thanks, At Large!
Summary: Poolology is an approximation system that does NOT consist of precision alignments.
I am glad that someone gets it that does not mind speaking up. I already knew the answer but my opinion does not count in this matter.
I suspect that PJs findings would mirror the same results.

Seems a bit disingenuous of you, Stan. You already had this conversation in detail with Brian in that same thread that AtLarge just posted. What is your real reason for bringing this up again? Seems to me this is simply an attempt to bash another aiming system, which is against forum rules. Oh, I forgot, forum rules don't apply to you... my bad.
Did you really order Poolology since you really want to know how it works, or were you kidding when you said, "My order is in"?
Oh, I forgot, forum rules don't apply to you... my bad.
That's very true but the promotion of Poolology as a no feel no adjustment system has continued in light of strong evidence that proves otherwise.
If bashing is speaking what's true then so be it. You chose to back an approximation horse under the guise that it is an exact ball pocketing system in a way to get at me and CTE through the back door. Do you think I'm blind to what you've been up to?
My claims of such were met with....well, you know the list, it's in this thread. I operate on the truth. If it hurts, then so be it.
Did I say that my order is in? Am I a liar?
Stan Shuffett
Do the forum rules apply to you? I know one thing for certain, the consequences for ban time normally doled out too everyone else when they get one doesn't apply to you.
Not everything is about you, Stan. Poolology came out and is new and interesting. Several threads were started and I know at least mine never made any mention of CTE, real or imagined. I don't care about the semantics of what is objective and what is subjective. Poolology requires very little if any fudging, and in places where it doesn't work (one spot on the pool table plus at very close range), Brian provides an adjustment. Basically, you do a little math to find the fractional hit, hit that spot, and the ball goes in. Call it subjective if you want but it is a good system.
Since you are in a chatty mood, can you answer me this: If you are so interested in stopping the bad blood in this forum, why not just tell us the answer to the perception mystery you talk about? The mystery is the only thing the "non believers," or "deniers" you might call us, are confused about. If you just do a quick Youtube video instead of waiting for the book to come out you can clear up a 20 year feud. It would also increase orders for your book. I'd buy 10 and give them out to friends.
So, really, ending this back and forth is in your power. What you do with that will be interesting to see. Unfortunately this is the end of the road for this discussion as I figure screams of baiting are about to be heard, and I'd prefer to not be banned.
And, yes, you said in your post above that your order was in. I would have thought you order would be in a few months ago if you really wanted to know how Poolology worked... but that's just me.
How do you always contradict yourself in almost every post you make?
I'm pretty sure you are not following the discussion. I don't think you understand the "mystery" reference, but Stan does. In typical fashion, when a direct question is asked, one of the team members steps in to muddy the waters instead.
I m gonna do what I said. I'm on record right here one more time. Just be patient. You'll get the explanation as will the whole world via the internet.
So what's the answer? Why not disclose the secret now instead of waiting for a book release in the unknown future? God knows you've put just about everything else on Youtube, so why not this? If you can prove your point you will sell 10 times more books.
You come in here moaning and groaning about how misunderstood and mistreated you are with all the arguing ad nauseum. Meanwhile, you have the means of putting an end to all that and yet you don't do it.
As I told Lou i have had to rebuild my stroke after too many years of letting it go. Pretty much no practice time at all. Went to a diamond table league this summer and found I bobbled everything. But it is going well.. Three man teams and we finished second and won 1400$ for the three of us.Hey Ed! How'r things? Nice to see you back!
I'm sandbagging on Lou. I'm gonna record back to back 100's and sent it to Lou. Well, er, that's that idea anyway. lol
Dave - OK it was fun for awhile letting you think I had an "in" with management. But, all good things must end. For the record, I didn't even know the "AZ" in AZ billiards referred to Arizona until like 6 months ago. I thought is was like "A to Z" billiards. I wouldn't know Mike or Mr. Wilson if I ran into them. Actually, come to think of it, I don't even know Mr. Wilson's first name.
You might not know what either of them look like if passing them on the street, but you certainly know Mike well enough to tell him to empty his PM box because it's full and you need to send something to him. And he knows you well enough to respond back "DONE" in about 3 milliseconds.
I said that you did IT work for AZ. Lucky guess I suppose because you said you did.
Please post my post where it was said.
Someone told me that another AZ member did IT work for them and I incorrectly remembered it that YOU had done the work.
I'd like to know who all of these members are that are so privy to what goes on behind the scenes. We both did work and the person behind the scenes certainly knows all of it. We've also both been banned so where did it get us? Neither of us ever asked for special favors or anything else. What business is it of yours?
The fact that you actually did was pure luck and fed into your delusion that I know somebody.
I don't believe one friggin' word you say. There's so much mention of "LUCK" in these sentences that it goes beyond calculating the odds. If you're this lucky, you need to go to Las Vegas and let it go to work for you. At least it will keep you off the forum for a while, hopefully forever. Buy a huge yacht with all the money won from lucky gambling and ride the waves around the world.
The simplest answer is usually correct: I appealed to AZ moderators to reconsider my ban and they did. That's as complicated as it gets. Sorry.
Total BULLSH!T! When you're banned, you can't login to make an appeal by way of a PM. What do you have, a direct cellphone # or email address to either or both of them? I doubt it would be Wilson since you don't know his first name so it leaves one other. You know, the one who you need to send urgent PM's to.
I just had a ban for REPORTING EGREGIOUS POSTS in a "Snarky" way behind the scenes. Not in public, behind the scenes between me and one other. It was the same length of ban as the other person who broke every rule out there and you even made a post for him to back off because you knew it. How did HE get off so light and I get the same thing? Where was my 24 hr. or 12 hr. ban. I couldn't make an appeal because I COULD NOT LOG IN! A lot of good any IT work did to offset that.
Somehow I have the feeling that this won't be the end of it. :frown:

First of all, Stan is his own business manager and makes all the decisions, not you. Secondly, it's none of your business.
You come in here moaning and groaning about how misunderstood and mistreated you are with all the arguing ad nauseum.
And you're in here moaning and groaning about something you know far too little about and argue ad nauseum for years. What or who gives you the right?
Meanwhile, you have the means of putting an end to all that and yet you don't do it.

I can't believe these aiming discussions are still going on. I have always just used contact points with a little fractional stuff thrown in to double check. I only know of one guy in this area that uses anything else and it doesn't really seem to help him much. If your stroke is straight and consistent your brain will soon figure it out. Beginners do need some kind of aiming aid for the first little while but that's really all.
Hater.

welcome to de club![]()
It just wouldn't be good timing. I have planned all along to do a free video series at about the same time of my book release. I feel real good about my plan for a free series.
The waiting game is about over. My book is finished. I'm in the middle of tidying up my 143 diagrams for Illustrator. Then I have to stage 373 photos.......It's a big job. I will never do anything like it again.
