hows abouts creating a completely different pool site which just has pro-games on it, use the pro tables from us 8 ball & 9 ball, along with the table spinner has used in the other thread with additions of cushions, to create a site possibley called funkypool-pro or summit like that, that way people can decide which versions/site they wanna play on, and decide what game types from all that will be available they would like to play, just an idea, what you lot reckon about a funkypool-pro site ??

Why make more work???
Alot of faffing around swapping from site to site just to play the us pro games.
And why would they make a site for the games that was rarely played..

theres funkypool, funkysnooker, so why not a funkypool-pro ? people switch from site to site to play pool and snooker, im sure there would be people wanting to go on the pro-site as much as this one..

Too much work is off putting, Just the 2 sites works perfect
And clearly there isnt any body wanting to play the pro games otherwise they would still be here..

yeh the majority of people didnt like the pro games, but not everyone, there was fair few that did like them, and im sure would like a site with 3 types of pro-pool on it, not many use funkysnooker, but that doesnt mean no-one does, there are still few players that do cus they enjoy it, and i think some people would enjoy a pro-site thats all lol

There is alot more snooker player's than you think.
" fair few " couple of hundred max would wana play ? also have to take into consideration the timezone's.
Pro tables never worked on the main site ..and i dont think making a seperate site is going to make them more popular.Just take up more server space what could be used for here


Personally would rarther see other things bein introduced Killer Pool, Winner Stays On that kind of thing

No-one played it, that's why it was scrapped. Why would Nick want to create ANOTHER website just for people who want to play it. 10 matches a day?! if it was to be back it would be back on this site. No chance of getting another site for it. More staff to mod it. No need. My rather harsh view on it.

The third site idea was suggested back when the pro games were on the chopping block.

Basically there would be too much similarity for it to work.

Not that i wouldn't want it to - it was me who suggested it

I dont think its a good idea because not many people played pro games before Nick took them off!

Well, it isn't worth the time or effort making another site for a game that only about 3% of members play.

True, It really isn't worth the time or the effort, nobody plays them and they would take up valuable server space.

I'd rather the competition stayed on the current table, I'm an old fart and dont like change much and if all the better players went to a new table I'd get lonely playing with my balls alone

In response to the 3rd site idea, I doubt nick would want to. Also it would slow down any additions that are set to come to this site in future as he would no doubt be concentrating on the newer site, at least for a while.
