Please go back to the beginning of this thread and read the first post. It asks the question whether 2x1 really matters or not, and if not then why is it thought to be the backbone of the CTE system?
CTE and a 2x1 Surface Explored

Not sure, but it only takes one post to ruin it, like saying your real name is Valiant Thor -- "look it up."
i was at friends house last night
he is alittle eccentric
we did play some pool though......
sorry thor i couldnt help but try to inject alittle humor....carry on men
Now i'm curious. Would poololgy work as described in the book on an altered table. No adjustments or fudging
Absolutely not, not without changing all numbers anyway. It would work on 1x1 table, which I have played on. It was fun, 4 corners and no side pockets.
Thinking about that table.... with the exception of banks that utilize a full table, it seems logical that cte users could use their system to pocket balls on that 1x1 table also.

and you also said you were from Venus. Is that true as well?
Ask Stan directly. He made the statement. The rest of us don't really care because it works on the tables we play on.
I am going to say that I THINK that for every shot on either of these tables which has a direct path to a pocket that there is a cte perception that will work for it.i was at friends house last night

This is your mantra. You don't care how it works all you know is you play better. At the same time you insist that everybody buys into a fanciful story about how it works and then you are upset when somebody challenges the unfounded tales.

Actually, mohrt's answer is not so conclusive. He's clearly not sure and keeps an open mind, which is refreshing.

I guess you should read Mohrt's reply again. It's a shame he doesn't actually have a cut off table. Any idea where we can find one?
CTE WILL NOT WORK IN IT'S ENTIRETY ON A CUT OFF TABLE. Time to move along.
Simple. Get a 2x3 and paint it green. Lay it on the table lengthwise and leave a pocket sized gap with the short rail to simulate a pocket. Cover the remaining portion of table with a sheet.
Mohrt still says that seeing the rails in 2x1 might be necessary even for non banked shots to work.
And i agree with Mohrt, seeing the rails in 2x1 might be necessary even for non banked shots to work.
You are funny. So if banked shots won't work and if it turns out that non banked shots don't work either then what does "CTE WILL NOT WORK IN IT'S ENTIRETY ON A CUT OFF TABLE." mean? Sounds like it won't work AT ALL.
"CTE WILL NOT WORK IN IT'S ENTIRETY ON A CUT OFF TABLE." mean? It means exactly what i said when i posted it. From a normal ball position. On a normal table. There are 6 general CTE perceptions to use that track to pockets. ALL 6 WILL NOT TRACK TO POCKETS ON A CUT OFF TABLE, like they do on o normal table. That means CTE will not work in it's entirety. However for your cut off table you should still be able to use 2 of the 6 perceptions to make balls in the corner pockets.
You are trying to make something out of nothing and using a cut off table as your ammo, it's ridiculous.
TRY TO MAKE BALLS INSTEAD.
Thor and his wife Sif were engaged in extremely rambunctious sex. Thor finishes, jumps up, pounds on his chest and bellows, "I'm THOR."
Quietly, Sif replies, "You think you're Thor, well, I'm so thor I couldn't touch this thing with a powder puff."
Never said that
Sure you did. Do I have to remind you where?
Edit: OK I'll end the suspense. Here ya go.
