    [UPDATED] APA complaint advice - My new-to-pool player went to a 7 in 7 matches (?!?!)

    depends on what his true skill level is. They come right out and say that your skill level can vary wildly during your first 10 matches until the system figures you out. There is no reason to think someone should stay at a SL4 just becuase they are new if they are playing at a higher level.

    [UPDATED] APA complaint advice - My new-to-pool player went to a 7 in 7 matches (?!?!)

    I can 100% assure you that the APA scoring system is highly dependent on inning count and defensive shots that are marked on the scoresheet. Win % has a little bit to do with it, but your rank is really based off your inning count, esp in matches you win. a SL3 can play another SL3 every week...

    If someone can engineer / re-design the cabinet so that it will fit under the Pro-Am table I would buy one in an instant.

    Avid shafts/cues from Cuetec?

    A Friend of mine bought one and I played with a couple months ago. I was not impressed at all, it felt like one of those cheap $20 dollar walmart cues. The thing just felt like it was going to break on every shot I took (it didn't actually break). For the price, I expected more from them. This...

    Generic 'stuff' ?

    i am not a complainer, i was just stating my experience when others asked in a thread. Quite frankly, seeing how you respond and treat people i am not comfortable giving you my personal information. You seem to have a very combative, vindictive, narcissistic personality. If I truly believed...

    Generic 'stuff' ?

    I have put on 100's of tips when I was first learning and I never had a single problem with any tip other than the ones I purchased from your site. I still have some of them and have issues with them. You can try and blame my technique all you want, call me all the names in the book, it still...

    Scotch Doubles - who goes next?

    I have always played you alternate shot, even between games. So if player A made the 8 ball player B would break the rack. (assuming playing 8 ball).

    APA League MVP

    APA League MVP

    I only been playing apa two years and the closest I came was 2nd. Which was a little disappointing to me because I was in first the entire session and only lost 1 match. I was a 5 and played pretty much 5's and 6's all season long. The person who won 1st place started as a 3 and then went to a...

    Let's talk chalk

    I tried a lot of different chalk and I use two chalks 99% of the time. For my home table, I keep Russian magic blue chalk on my table. I find it a lot cleaner than master chalk and does a good job. I like it because its semi affordable for when my friends / etc are over playing. When I am...

    Generic 'stuff' ?

    When I first started I bought a couple tips from that place and they were all junk. The water buffalo tips I got all mushroomed to hell and back. After only two or three breaks the tip would mushroom out the sides almost the thickness of a credit card. I trimmed down that tip about 10 times...

    Chalk dust

    I have regular 860 (tournament blue) on my table and you can clearly see the chalk dust "black" spots. My old table has Simmonis 860 Electric blue cloth and the chalk dust was never visible (or black).

    Chalk dust

    I noticed the same thing, but I actually like the darker marks because you can see exactly where you need to vacuum to make sure you got all the dust up. With the sky blue, the chalk is still on the table, its just blended it.

    Predator Pool Table

    I got a diamond about 18 months ago and this was my only single complaint about the table. There were a few times I scraped the tops of my knuckles hard enough they were bleeding. The pool rooms I play league in has lots of diamond tables, and i noticed almost everyone of them has the black...
