Average points scored per games played would be a good table to have.

If you reset each month then there definitly needs to be a hall of fame

Rules

The aim of the game is simply to take it in turns to pot the ball. If you miss you lose one of your 3 allocated lives.

You get an additional shot after breaking.

You get an additional life after potting the black (which you can do at any time). However it's a maximum of 3 lives.

Potting the white loses a life.

Game reracks until only 1 player is remaining.

Ranked

If you select ranked you play for points. Each player pays 10 points. Winner takes pot plus 10%.

Edit: Of course you should try leave next player the most difficult you can.

Looks like a great idea looking forward to playing it.
Would be intresting to see this become a Tournament as well

It would be nice but very difficult to add.


Would it be easier simply to list the players with their respective remaining lives somewhere other than the normal room list? (beside or below the acive player text for example)

A continual list of all players with their remaining lives in one form or another sure would be a good addition.

Excellent game idea tho Nick, much credit for that!

Something like that.

Many ways to go about the scoring system, but in my opinion, the most important bit is to avoid the scoring to be too much about who plays the most. 10% bonus on the pot and no daily reductions means that it's basically just a grinding competition of who can play the most. Obviously win rate matters a lot too, but in essence the number of games played currently matters a bit too much imo.

Definitely

The most surprisingly refreshing aspect of this format is the multi-player side of it imo. Totally different atmosphere than we're used to from the one-on-one formats. Simply great fun

I for one love that it is on the US table with much better graphics, but this is clearly a matter of preference.

In time, maybe Nick will add a UK version as well

A choice would be very nice indeed.

From the original post though, this is the beta version, so I'm sure nick will take all comments on board, and eventually we'll have the perfect version.

I love the game though, the multiplayer aspect works great, and is very playable.
