Not that it matters much, but out of curiosity: If I, as a 550, play a 470 (real fargo, with ~400 robustness), which entered the tournament as a 550, how is each player's performance calculated? As if he would be a 550? or as if a would have played a 470? I can see that DigitalPool does the...

This is how the referee placed the balls for the lag in the semi-final today: Niels moved the ball into the table and lost the lag for that. Even though Joshua still wanted to lag. I remember that stupid rule from another tournament surprising someone. If they place the balls like this it's...

Here is an english article: https://theathletic.com/5155064/2023/12/21/super-league-back-court-case-verdict/ They ruled for two cases in two different sports. The more prominent issue was a breakaway league in european soccer, but they also ruled for a case in ice skating. The ruling says...

Paging Dr. fargo: Just curious, no hard feelings. Is my performance rated different, based on the robustness of my opponent? I lost against a much lower ranked (almost 200 points) player on the hill. His robustness was 7. Do I have the same performance now as loosing against the same fargo with...

I had a split pea sized piece chip off my samsara Break Tip. Didn't take pictures, just reshaped and continued playing. Happened straight along on layer. Anybody else had this? Did I just get a bad batch? Is this a "regular" issue with layered tips? Happened when I chalked 🙂 Had the tip on for...

I am just curious and not complaining about my rating or handicaps. I didn't play much for 3, 4 years and now played my first tournament, which was entered. I can see the 2 matches, but my robustness is 22. I thought each point would be one game? Is this a "new entrant" boost? I like the...

I got frustrated with Facebook streams when the European Open happened and now again with the stream from Turning Stone. I appreciate a lot, what UpstateAl is doing! But this time at Turning Stone, it seemed like more people got frustrated just as I did. There wasn't always a working link. Some...

Is it just me or is it very frustrating to use Facebook and find the live feed for the European open? I get it, they want to distribute to a lot of people for free, but Facebook is not a video.platform. It's a rabbit hole, full of white noise to keep me there longer than I ever want to. I...

2-fold question, but for me personally: I am a B and I am not turning Pro anytime soon. I have a wife and a job during the day. But I would love to improve my game in competition. I am just outside of the city limits of NYC, so, would have quite a few places within an hour to go to. But...

Not sure where to put this. I registered 2 users, as it took a while to get approved and I wasn't sure what's happening. So, 1 got approved and 1 got denied. I would like to use the denied username, but can't change the approved one as the username already exists. What would be the easiest...
