I can't remember what we got but Green stamps did have good stuff.
I remember when Count Germaine was just a lad. I am actually only 75 but I feel like I am 180.You say your memory is shot…..and then you start talking about the year 1600 …….how old are you?

just sayin.I don't agree with you, Mr3Cushion. The fact that tables are "Twice as long as wide" do not play any role in the Diamond system formula.
For example, in the shot below, only three cushions are affected; the position of the small cushion on the right is irrelevant.

The plus two has some minor limitations, but learning it is a springboard for further study.I completely ignored all of these for years because they never worked on a 7' table correctly. I'll revisit with my 9'
Works 4 me.
I think any tool is helpful.
I also think over analyzing and thinking leads you to brain death.
I’m more than very familiar with multiple systems for all games.
The only time I lean on a system is if I have a difficult zep playing 3 cushion.
Even then it’s pretty much a check valve.
After you have experience you should be able to learn the speed of the table and how the angles are running fairly quickly.
Connect a dot comes natural.
If you can’t hit your object ball the thickness you want consistently you have a problem.
If you can’t hit your ball with every English and stroke known to mankind you have a problem .
If you can’t elongate, shorten, delay
or run your cue ball up and down, back and forth etc you have a problem.
There is only one system to get you there and it’s called Time on the table system and lots of it.

I honestly cannot tell if this is meant to be a joke/sarcasm. Also, for the diagram it seems as if the values for the 'Start' and 'Aim' variables are x-y co-ordinates, where only the x value matters, but the 'Spin' value does not seem to relate at all.
75 I spent a lot of time with this back in the 90s.You say your memory is shot…..and then you start talking about the year 1600 …….how old are you?
Lasers and mirrors absolutely. Diamond system? Needs extensive analysis to discover any correlation other than the results based averaging.
Rhetorical question? Why would you need numbers? Dots on the rail would help (me maybe) but numbers? I suppose that would work if you committed fanatically to a system or systems.
I KNOW i dont need the numbers, but every system shown here has nr. Can someone explain the system without nr?
Snooker tables dont have diamonds. How can they do it, like 3 cushion escape when theyre snookered?
BR
Edit: i believe most have just learned the system by nr., but not really understand the logic/math behind it.
