Really! Your avatar says Alabama? Are the local tables 10 footers? Are there many local tables?

Thanks for the link. I think i understand that. And from the link, 6 year old games are rated at 1/4 of present day games, so a 3-year half-life. That link you provided led me to the FargoRate Facebook page. They do provide this graph showing the changes in the world's top four.

I understood games are removed from Fargo after two years, and within that two-year span, the the older the game the less weight it has on the rating.

Ha! Ha! I'm certain that I'm not your student, and I'm certain you're not my peer in terms of physics and mathematics knowledge. There's nothing wrong with the name Maxwell. You can use whatever name you like. Is that your project summary? One sentence? You won't get any funding if you...

Me too. One new wrinkle is that the latest Shootout Snooker is carried on TV, and is apparently very popular. Maybe just because it's new. I did discover that the 6Reds rules now often allow breaking from anywhere behind the line, not just the line between yellow and green. Edit: The...

Ha! Ha! Yeah I know. I enjoy watching quality snooker. But anything less than very good players can be really painful. We'll see if Shootout Snooker (or Snookerpool) will take off. I did get an email from a group in Europe (6Reds.com) promoting 6Reds on a pool table, and selling a 6Red ball...

I think Shootout Snooker is intended to be a fast game. Like when Texas Express took over 9-ball.

Typically you break from the baulk line. Either between the yellow and brown, or between the brown and green. The same as regular snooker. (In regular snooker, you can break from anywhere in the D, but I don't remember ever seeing anyone break from anywhere except on the line between...

Understood. I think that's one of the reasons I'd like to try 6Reds or 10Reds, but playing Shootout rules. "Ball must hit the rail", and "all fouls are ball-in-hand". There is no D.

Something i'm curious about is the evolution of a player's fargo rating. Is a players FR more likely to peak then diminish or more likely to peak then level off, then diminish? Are the up-and-coming players identifiable by the rate of change of their FR? I attended a tournament about 4 or 5...

Incidentally, we did try playing snooker on a 9' table with 2 1/16" balls. If you shot down the rail and graze the side cushion just past the side pocket, it would still go in the corner. Running centuries was common. It's certainly better with 2 1/4" balls. 6 Reds or 10 Reds works fine.

I just bought a set of 2 1/4" snooker balls for playing on a pool table. The local group wants to give it a try.

I know your posts so far have just been ramblings without any structure or actual details, but you could have someone in your lab provide a one-paragraph executive summary describing your Maxwell Cloth project, and also your Maxwell Balls. and your Maxwell Pocket. You don't have to include any...

But you've never provided any math, and you haven't even provide a number. You still haven't answered what you're selling in your pop up shop, and all those people you say are buying your Maxwell Cloth, but you can't say what exactly you're selling them? I can understand why you'd want to...

How long do you think you might have to wait for someone on AZB to give you a few hundred million dollars? Can you think of any other examples of someone with no demonstrable business knowledge and no demonstrable physics knowledge getting paid any amount by anyone to research something in...

You're the one selling something. You say you can provide a demonstration for a price. What do you think it's worth?

Gravity and friction and quantum mechanics can be added to electricity, magnetism, and Maxwell's equations as subjects you don't know much about. It is curious where you get these ideas from.

You don't have any experience if you think research proposals get funded simply by requests.

What's your price for a demonstration?

So does that mean you don't have a product. You've said the Maxwell cloth is selling out fast? What are you selling then? Did your business class suggest you can raise a few hundred million dollars by posting on AZB?
