I think this is the third time this has been brought up, first by me then someone else, and im bringing it back again.

Since i have been back (this time) i have noticed that runouts in the 8 ball games are becoming more and more frequent and think it would be great if they could be timed. E.g.

Annoncement uk 8 ball - Mich broke and cleared up in 1 minute 47 seconds.

This could also show on a leaderboard like highest run for straight, etc.

Also for 9 ball we could have something like this...

Announcement: 9ball - Mich ran the rack with a 4-9 combo

or Announcement 9 ball - Mich broke and cleared up (if all balls are potted)

Also for straight yo could time the runs, I was speaking to Damee asking how long it took him to get 108 nd he said about 20 minutes i just think it would be great if this showed on your profile.

Any ideas welcome.

Mich.

Good idea, but what purpose would it service or is it just for fun!

Just for fun and maybe so you could have a little banter with your mates about you doing it faster or whatever

yeah, i like it, you could do what u stated above good idea.

However i think there are more things to be done before this, but i hope it gets in sooner or later (providing it is easy to implement)

Before MMT says it, Doubles and leagues first but i still want this in

I dont mind to be honest, however this may cause people to rush it and then mess up.

Their own fault then isnt it, it would be like a challenge too to get the quickest on leaderboard

ANNOUNCEMENT: Straight - clooneman got a run of 20 in half an hour!

Never half an hour... cause it'd never happen

Fair point.

Ahem... 18:51 Sun 10/05/09 Straight - clooneman got 44 successive pots

haha one off

that has came up before a very long time ago...I like that idea.

I like this new idea of the time as well - it should entice faster shot making for those that are on a run out chance to top the leaderboard.

It was me who bought it up last time when i was on mich_is_back but james jagger who made the actual thread
