Jeez don't you freaking read all the suggestions people? It doesn't have to be necessary, it can be just like the ranked option.

How hard is it to understand what i mean?
I meant you could pick between those two and then separately pick ranked or unranked. Standard game being without calling shots so that everyone who doesn't like it wouldn't have to click one extra time to set up a game since it's such a big deal.

What is it gonna kill you that some players will be able to play the game this way? If it were implemented the way i said, it wouldn't interfere with the way it's played now at all.

but then what about tournaments? surely you cant have some tournaments where you call shots and others you dont.

you either commit to it or you dont, simple as that

I said standard would be without calling shots, which means that tournaments would be too then aye? Why does it bother you so much?

thankyou (lol)

becuase you will have a split in one game type over what method to use. arguments would start and there would be a split among members about what game is 'better' or more 'correct'.

personally, I wouldnt want to see it come in right now, there are more important thigns to focus on in my opinion. but if you bring it in, you either bring in 100% or you dont at all, simply to avoid splits among members. (yes, thats extreme but it can happen!!)

I agreed before and still do.

It would be especially great for 9 ball, where the fluke factor is so much higher than the other game types.

You have to either put it in or not put it in, the ranks would mean nothing if some are playing, call your pockets or normal, but i am skeptical about this, maybe implement in 14.1 first and if it works and majority likes it then put it on all games!

How would it account for combination shots?

Select all the balls that are going to be involved?

Sorry if it's been mentioned previously, I didn't read every post

Maybe a button that says "combo" then maybe you can select how many balls are involved

All seems too much for my liking - I wouldn't want to click several balls and a button just for a shot - I see the relevance in Straight, but for the other games I'd say leave it as it is.

Don't forget you can easily just call the shots if both players want to, just as in a real life game.
