We're almost there, 2 days to go. Remember to read the rules and abide by them. We always have people trying to monopolize tables, pleading ignorance of the way we rotate for maximum member play.
Remember to sign up on the board to play, and rotate as described below.
If you see people in the room, INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND GET IN THE ROTATION!! We may try a "badge system" where we use our badges like quarters on the rail in a bar.
If you see someone who is not a member playing, POLITELY TELL THEM THAT THE ROOM IS FOR MEMBERS AND PRO'S ONLY (there will be a pro list on the wall). Tell them our costs are up front and money was collected ahead of time. If they resist, call an organizer or Room Goon.
Remember to GIVE UP THE TABLE IF PRO'S COME IN AND WANT TO PLAY - they can play with you first; but let's encourage them to frequent the room; offer them refreshments if we have them in the room.
Here are the games we play:
As before, there will be a list of allowable "games" (ie. race to 2 at one-pocket, race to 2 in 8-ball, race to 3 in 9-ball, race to 2 in 9-ball banks, race to 35 in 14.1). There will be a sign-up board for each table. When your turn comes up, you play the person above you in the order; after the match your opponent leaves the table (win or lose) and you play the person below you in the order; then you leave the table after that match (win or lose). You can always sign right back into the order if you wish. Violators will be subject to disciplinary action from the Room Goons.
Please bump this thread; your bump will signify you are on board and will help things run smoothly so everyone can play.
