I know Dieckman did a loosely organized shot contest for experienced players a while back. I was wondering if anyone has a record of the shots and maybe some diagrams of them.
thanks,
 

Thanks Bob! I had forgotten that I had uploaded those diagrams to Picasa.

Jamie, you can view those diagrams, drawn by DD here on Picasa. http://picasaweb.google.com/sde321/ElJefeS3CushionShots#
If you would like, I'll email you the original jpegs of the diagrams. Let me know.

Does a player get more points for each solution to a position?
This was devised by Dennis Dieckman. My only part in this was to stream and record, at least until I was recruited into being a somewhat unwilling participant. I have copies of the hard copy diagrams (that I scanned to a Jpeg file) so that I could show the diagrams live to the online audience.

If I remember correctly, the diagrammed shot was like the first shot of a potential run and one point was scored for each billiard made from that starting position. Three attempts were allowed for each of the starting positions and the total score was the sum of each of those three attempts. This was repeated for each new "shot", after all participants had made their three attempts.

If not mistaken These 15 diagrammed shots was attempted as in artistic shots.
1st attempt ...3 points and continue shooting (run), after the run, score was added up.
2nd attempt...2points"-------------------------------------------------------------".
3rd attempt...1point "--------------------------------------------------------------".

But the Best thing to do is call Dieckman... But he might even have change the instruction. Tom Paley (3Kushn) might know more.
