With the new random rack feature of the updated Wei Table, the Cue Table, at www.cuetable.com , I had an idea for an kind of tourney challenge here in the AZ forum.
I want 8 volunteer players to begin.
I also want 3 official judges. I'll be one, so we need 2 more.
This will be an 8 player single elimination tournament.
Players that draw each other in the first round get the same random table layout. The challenge is to present the best OUT PLAN from that position. The player that receives the most judges points progresses to the semi-final and so on.
To make it fair, the entrants should PM the html code of their final solution to me, so that the other player cannot copy their ideas. I'll edit these up into a jpeg and present the two solutions side by side so everyone else can give their 2c. But please refrain from offering solutions or advice until the players have submitted their solutions.
To get the html code, all you do is click the red record button on the screen and then paste it whereever you want it.
Here is my sample OUT PLAN example (html then jpeg image):

You should plan the out on the assumption that you are a pro-level player, not a god though.
Ok...volunteers who think they can use the cuetable? Once I get 8 I'll make the draw and give out the table challenges.
A couple of judges? Should know a bit about the game.
This is subjective, and judges could make stupid decisions, but it should provide a bit of fun and an interesting way to study and discuss OUT PLANNING and for us to become familiar with the new Wei Table.
