Honestly nineball being produced by Europeans has made it as boring as can be.

Can't we have an action tourney series.....like derby city monthly?

I tuned into some of the Scottish open and now the UK Open....holy crap is this boring. And I'm doing my best to enjoy it but it has zero entertainment value for me so far. I genuinely do not know what it is but even the highlight videos I'm shutting off because there is nothing that is preventing me from switching.

Seriously, what the hell is it? I can't figure it out.

I watched the Scottish Open and it was great. Shaw beat Ralph hill/hill and then Zelinski hill/hill in finals. Great matches and tournement.
 
i have few complaints so far, but i'm watching table 1 mostly. i think they pick faster paced players for tv tables this time, because that's what usually gets me when there's no shotclock

Guess that's on me then as I did not watch up to that point. But good to hear there was good play later on, especially in the finals.
 
Here is strength of the entire field and also showing who was eliminated the first round.
As you can see, none from the top quarter eliminated at earliest opportunity

were there that many players at exactly 500? or are those players who had no rating?

Those are players with no rating just put in for completeness. Occasionally, of course, there is a strong player not yet on our radar. In our experience, though, the vast majority of unrated players are eliminated pretty quickly. And that is playing out here.
 
Pool has become unwatchable with all these characters getting down and up twenty times to take a damn shot.

I agree for some of them. I think the shot clock comes in for the final rounds. I find the "+5 seconds" button essential for watching some matches.
