Words to live by.
On the Facebook page, it shows two videos for day 2.
- DAY 2 - SVB - The Legends of Pocket Billiards 14.1 High Run Challenge, and the duration is 2:54:45
- SVB Day 2 High Run Challenge and the duration is 6:13:09
I downloaded the second video and passed it through some analytic software I'm developing. Note that this software reads the video at 10x rate, so I wouldn't be surprised if some of the runs are off by a ball.
There were a few problems with the video itself, and i had to step through the software manually in one spot.
These are SVB's runs over the 6 hours and 13 minutes.

Note 1
3.14 SVB starts new run, scoreboard is reset to show 0 racks
3.16 SVB completes rack 1, but scoreboard shows 2. A minute later, scoreboard drops back to 1
3.19 SVB completes rack 2, scoreboard increases to show 2
3.20 Before SVB breaks again, scoreboard increases to show 3
3.21 video freezes
3.22 after the freeze, SVB is breaking and scoreboard shows 0. Assume that during the frozen (chopped?) part of the video that Shane scratched ending his run at 44 by the scoreboard, but 30 in real life.
Note 2
4.46 SVB starts new run. Scoreboard shows 0
4.49 SVB completes rack 1, scoreboard increases to 1
4.52 SVB completes rack 2, scoreboard increases to 2
4.53 Before SVB breaks again, the scoreboard increases to 3
4.57 SVB completes rack 3, scoreboard increases to show 4
4.58 SVB misses on the break. Scoreboard still shows 4, for a run of 56 by the scoreboard, but 42 in real life.
I'll try the software out on other videos, but will first try different viewing speeds on this particular video. It's long enough to show some useful data.
Some of the other runs may have had scoreboard errors as well so it would be good to figure out the best viewing rate for catching those.
Although, maybe they aren't scoring errors. Maybe the rules for this event periodically allow the player to get "free racks for participation"?
