Freddie, in your selective cut and paste, I think you missed the important part of what I said. Here it is:
"John is doing practice runs. If he breaks 768, I think he has the record."
I suggested nothing with rules of the game or that an actual game has to be part of the high run. Others seem to have suggested that, over many threads. The notion of official seems in the minds of some, to be announced, with an opponent, and with a big crowd, and documented, etc, etc. I said the opposite, that John's counts, if done. That's it. Please don't misconstrue.
All the best,
WW
I think it’s you that has misconstrued the question. I am talking specifically about what is the official run. If you don’t consider Mosconi’s 526 run as the official run, then this question isn’t for you. This question is specifically for those who point to Mosconi’s 526 run as the “official high run,” and therefore I’m asking what would be the current official 9 foot run. Whether or not John hits 768 has nothing to do with the current official 9’ high run.
