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

    Personally, I don't understand how anyone could spend even a sterling on this. The longer it goes on, the more it seems like BS. There are no details given. You say that 21/27 clubs have signed up for eleventy-ten sets of balls, but that is an unsubstantiated claim. You have offered no path...

    Need Advice on Cue Purchase and Return situation

    It does at Costco, Amazon, LLBean, Home Depot... If you don't mean that it can be returned without reason, it needs to be said. That is the world we live in now.

    Need Advice on Cue Purchase and Return situation

    A few things here. 1. I'm guessing that there was difficulty with any verbal communication. 2. Talking on the phone is great, you can get a feel for a person. 3. Relying on anything verbal is stupid. Follow all phone conversations with an email and require a response. 4. Always choose...

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

    Good to know. Very good to know, indeed. I won't argue whether designing images on balls is engineering or not. I don't think it is, but I won't argue the point. As far as the whole opening the tables, yeah that could happen. It is not going to happen in any of the bars I have ever played...

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

    I'm in Montana. It appears you are in UK? I can say that the culture in the UK, with their black ball game would likely be much more open to a new game. In MT, I can't think of more than several public pool halls. If you take away the university pool rooms in Bozeman and Missoula (which...

    Automatic cue roller - SOLD

    You can't see a motor...can you see the gear on one of the rollers? Can you see the black box behind that gear? Can you see the press-button on that box? Any chance that the motor is...gasp...housed in that box?

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

    I'm not irritated by anything, just explaining why your game is likely to fail miserably. I will never play your game because I won't buy your game. As I said, I live in a sparsely populated area of the states, I would bet that none of the bars will buy your game. You keep stating that there...

    No, just one flat spot to keep the balls from rolling when the rack is removed.

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

    The big problems I see: 1. One of your first statements is that you ban jumping and masses. Being that you are from the Merry old, this automatically suggests that you are catering to snooker culture. I, for one, hate the fact that the snooker culture is already screwing up the colors of our...

    Funny pic/gif thread...

    I started with #1 at an outdoor winter auction on a cold day when I was six. I could never drink coffee after drinking about thirty cups that day and puking everywhere. Love the smell, hate the taste.

    Looking for a cue maker that will make a plain jane or merry widow cue for 300$

    Doing flatter yourself, as I said, I think ignorant BS is hilarious. I also love random conspiracy theories from strangers.

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

    I'm sorry, but why? There are plenty of games now and about a billion that exist but aren't played any longer. Adding another doesn't strengthen the sport, it dilutes it.

    The Gambling Process

    Remember, this is the guy who stated that he only 'gambles' with players he knows he can beat. He has also said that he won't let his victims use any of their own special equipment (including jump cues and bridges). Winning!

    Comprehensive list of drills?

    What your instructor is really describing here is the difference between someone who is going to meet 1/3 or 1/2 of their potential versus the guys who reach over 75% of their potential. There is nobody in the upper echelons of anything who only had fun getting there. Every champion in every...

    Looking for a cue maker that will make a plain jane or merry widow cue for 300$

    Dayum, boy! You'll be unstoppable once you learn the, "I'm rubber, you're glue" argument. Just keep in mind that we generally prefer epoxy in this forum.
