kinda stupid its only for new members...
old members who havent paid should get the benifit too.
anyway, i checked it out last night.
the game realistics are average. i dont think throw and deflection are taken into acount. every good player there uses a ruler or something to extend the path and aim better. but we all know thats not enough.
i played one of the best guys around. he won 2000$ in the first tournament and highest $ winning person. he broke and run 3 racks on me. missed, and broke another 3 pack on me. we stopped at 7-1. even if i still net to get some feel with the speed indicator, the top players are pritty good.
id say the people online are ok compared to other online games. u always have 1 or 2 *****s around, but at least they dont swear the *** out of you if u win them.
tournaments are organised daily. (most without cash) but still fun. a 32 player tournament is finished as quickly as in 1 hour. so thats pritty fast.
i also like the way they used the draw system for the big 10k $ tournaments. as soon as u get online, u play vs the firts person available. not matter who you draw?. this is in the first stages. to make it all go quicker. i like that.
to play in the 1000k + tournaments u need to be a premium member, wich costs 7.5€/ month. reasonable price seen the $ u can win. (256th place gives u 8€... so u win it back easily)
overal, im still curious on how the site will develop, and if they wont make the mistake the ipt did.
