There was a Diamond at one of the MSP houses that i think they tried to set up for 1P. The thing had like half an inch of shims and they weren't even. Pocket facings may as well have been steel, everything rattled from up table, but would drop along the short rail... Fortunately that one was...

Noticed the site was down for a bit last week. Was mildly concerned but wasn't sure what your maintenance window was. Must have been working on the migration? Glad to see everything back up, you are an valuable resource for the game. (y)

I don't mind the list view for the first rounds, especially in the big tournaments where a bracket can get cluttered. Once they get to 64 it should be a bracket though.

This is one of the reasons I switched from the BK shaft to a 12.9 to break with. It's still got a Kamui SAI on it, but i rarely hammer my breaks and even then i can't hit it as hard as many people can (Kaci 👀). I usually find myself dialing back the power to avoid clusters or balls getting hit...

That was amazing to watch. The level of CB control and shot making abilities of these players is absolutely otherworldly. What's with the commentators constantly talking about the "tight" 4-1/8" pockets? These guys have been playing on 3.9-4" pockets non-stop for the last year...

Can say that i was really surprised to see Ralf go to the short cue that quickly. Didn't hesitate.

That was fun to watch.

After this week I'd take Dechaine. :)

Misread this (bold). You mean specifically a BA in Arts/Humanities/etc, not just BA vs BS (where there's a lot of overlap in usage). Disagree that the degree is worthless (none truly are), but many aren't worth the debt. Problem is employers demand you have the piece of paper... But that's...

Whatever you say. (y)

It's not Europe's fault the US can't keep up...

You do realize "liberal arts" schools have STEM programs, right? It's just a way of saying you need to take more than just degree-dependent courses to graduate.

We shouldn't have playing captains anyway. At least not making the decisions...

Again: Who are you replacing him with? USA barely has the depth to field 5 players that can compete at that level. We had a whole thread about who the 5th should be because there aren't many options (the bad kind of tough decision). Europe was without arguably the best player on the damn planet...

I often set up scenarios that i see in pro matches. Being able to mark where the balls are lets me try different methods on the same shot. It's not just about making the shot.

Well since Styer was the only American with a winning record in 2024 (excluding team matches), maybe we should cut Fedor and Sky too. I mean, there's gotta be 3 players in the US that can do better, right? Right? Bueller???

Based on the pics he's been posting it's been more catching than fishing. 😂

100% Predator 1080 and agree with everyone else: it's super dirty. Similar play and texture to Masters, but it gets everywhere and doesn't last long. I've got a bunch of sleeves of it in a drawer somewhere.

Still 1* here in MSP but should warm up as the day goes on. Planning on shooting some pucks this afternoon and the ice should be goooood.
