A New Pool game...? Yes... Look inside...

and if you’ve somehow gotten rid of
the purple five ball it’ll all be worth it!

I used to play using a pink 4 which I think is better than a purple too similar to a blue or dark enough to almost be mistaken for a black.

Our sets are very simple and we can in future release additional balls to swap out for ones that may not be suitable for some or all cloth colours. But these should be fine for most.

But, this is not the problem, nor anything related to what we have developed.

It has been tried to some extent before but not worked for some simple reasons - either over complicated, wrong people behind it, poor marketing and/or developed with the need of extra accessories on top of the balls which just gets messy.

We have learned from other's mistakes, and tried to find ways for what we have developed to be done easily and with little confusion for anyone, so even a first time player can pick up and cue and not have to spend time figuring the game out (other than how to actually hold the cue, line up, shoot and pocket a ball). You might be thinking "what is there to figure out? You are either spots or stripes/reds or yellows, or the numbers guide you".

Yes, but to avoid that question being asked or needing to be answered, please let me tell you this is something that is completely different.

In fact, so simple. And we have various ways to play it depending on the type of game you want to play and the level of players participating.

It will all make sense verrrrrry soon.

P.s. no purple 5

We have created something new as an optional game for a reason to "fix" a "problem"
Click to expand...

the problem of course is missing shots,
and the most effective way to fix that
is to eliminate not the pockets,
but the idea of pocketing as a way to score
-so no colors and no numbers

the problem of course is not knowing
where to make contact with the object ball,
so therefore an entire set of balls that look
similar to the jim rempe training ball will fix
the dilemma of confusion and guesswork

the problem of course is wanting to make a shot,
so the simple fix in this case is balls that are invisible
and actually not even there -so with this achievement
the problem is immediately solved

You should be on stage, Mark.

Your talent is wasted here 😏

But as I have said, it even solves an issue when seasoned players want to play. Training balls and what not aren't really something that would help those who understand the physics behind the game and play to a competitive level.

Very presumptuous of you. Purely based on history.

There are also non-Americans here. Maybe one from Antarctica also.

Good job bro. Didn't take long to take a topic from 'mildly' interesting(use that loosely) to grating. OP seems hell-bent on shoving it down the throats of people that really seem not to give a shit about his schtick. I've known a bunch of used car dealers in my life and this cat would fit right in. Maybe a late-nite infomercial for drunk/stoned suckers is in order. Tossin' another on the 'ol IP.
 
At this point this is going to have to be the greatest thing since the Renaissance to live up to the hype.

It's so simple a baby could play it! But it can be played an infinite number of ways! It's completely new! But the balls are nothing fancy! But you need a proprietary set! It solves the problem with pool that nobody knew existed! Half the pool world and social media are on board already!

I know, "wait a few weeks".

It is a shame, yes, but unfortunately it seems that the mindset of the majority who have replied is "if you can't reveal it then it's nonsense and therefore I won't buy or play it".

Also, many assumed (although stated not to be the case) that we take your £1 that you will never see again to get in the queue for something you don't know about.

The problem does exist, BUT among the seasoned players, myself included, don't see it as something we need to be concerned about, however there are millions of casual players, social players etc who DO come across this problem on a very, very regular basis. So, this has been developed with that audience and the settings where such guests attend.

HOWEVER, it is something that can be played by ALL level of players, introducing a twist that, trust me, we have all most likely tried to do - and successfully - but with limitations... very little in the way of versions that can be played, therefore not so enjoyable, too basic, not so challenging.

It is also a situation that I am confident every player has been in and had to adapt to, or know happens to millions who go out to play pool.

I can 100% guarantee that every pool hall owner who welcomes in all level of player from the first timers, the once a monthers (made up word) and the ones who make it a weekly or daily thing, will have seen happen and would no doubt like there to be a solution for simply with a different set of balls.

I don't know what else I can do.

I have answered questions and taken the criticism from those who seem to think there cannot be a problem that exists because they came of the womb holding a cue and have made their minds up already that this is nonsense without seeing it.

We are contractually obliged to NOT reveal any fine details until all involved agree and when paperwork is finalised and we are ready to go.

I can't really see what is so difficult to comprehend.

If you aren't interested, and it isn't for you, and you don't think it is for others, why engage? Because it's fun to see someone squirm from behind a screen.

I'm not squirming. But, when we reveal, the early birds willl be able to catch the proverbial worm.
 
Again, what you aren't understanding is that you came in here too soon. To come in and say that you have this new great thing, but I can't tell you what it is because paperwork, isn't the way to go. If you came in and said the reveal will be on X date, and that date is in the near future, you wouldn't get near the hate you are getting.

I don't see how this is hard to understand. Take your lumps, accept responsibility for your actions, and move on. Stop repeating yourself. Come back when you can tell us more.
 
I’ve been endeavouring to deduce the concept from your posts, Jack, and my best guess is perhaps an updated variant of the Saratoga balls… numerals 1 through 8 on the solids and 1 through 7 on stripes, but all with traditional colours.

Am I close?

"No, it's something completely different. The balls are NOT very different. The thing is they solve an ISSUE which everyone has had. What they DO involves a TWIST which we have all, in some way, tried to do differently at one time or another but have been unable to achieve with things as they are. Everyone who has played pool will 100% guarantee the twist that is something we've all wanted to do."

Oooooh, so the problem is something casual and beginning players experience, but most seasoned players don't.

Good marketing strategy to announce it on a site that is 99% seasoned players.
