Wow... TWO things I've discovered, one bad and one very good
BAD
There I was, playing 9 ball on the practice table, watching the 9 ball reappear after it was potted illegally, when I thought, hmmm.... What happens when the 9 spot is occupied? So I manoeuvred a ball over it, and the 9 took went into place behind it. Then... I thought when happens if there's a whole bunch of balls in the way? Sure enough, it gets left behind all of those again. And THEN I thought... "What happens when there's no room for it go anywhere?"
And I set it up. And there was nowhere for a potted 9 to go. And I potted the 9... And it came up with an error and logged me out!
I think this would be classified as a bit of an error alright! It's unlikely it will ever happen in gameplay, but it would be unfair for it to happen nonetheless. Oh, and look at it, you can see the 9 sitting on top of one of the balls in the way afterwards. I haven't bothered with a screenshot though! It remains possible to change the game type and table colour, but not to take a shot. Re-rack button doesn't work either.
VERY GOOD
I carried out these shenanigans while waiting for the 6 pm GMT 9 ball speed tournament to begin, and after I got the invite I potted the 9 for the last time (as described above) and got logged out. Oh no! I'm out the tourney! Or so I thought...

This is now proven wrong, please ignore said:
...I logged back in... and there was my invite! Thing used to be that if you logged out while you had a tourney invite, that invite was gone when you logged back in. Try it yourselves for the next tourney you're NOT interested in taking part in (although that might lead to funny looking tourney results pages). Get your invite, close and re-open the window (which I ain't tried yet, by the way) and your invite should still be there. A very helpful and useful addition.

Not that long, I chose the table with the balls in a row. Just shoot them down the line... Still made a mess of it though! Also, I changed to/from alternative cue control (the slow one) so I could hit really soft shots.
Not at all. I just though "What if...?" and took it from there.
lol!
