leave the shot clock at 20 secs

There has never been an official rule on how long the game should be, well as to my knowledge there hasn't. I say it should be left to the people creating the first set of games to decide on a time limit of either 20 or 30 seconds.

I think 30 should be the maximum though, if people started to put it above that, the game would get tedious and result in in game arguments which we definately don't need.

I use 20 seconds personally, aple time in my opinion.

they rule does exist

3.3 Shot time limit
All games must be played with a shot time limit of 20 seconds

dont no what all the fuss is about ,,,, the format is much the same in tornos ,, i dont read ppl fussing all the time

i no players who will take it to the limit and who will go to the 30 sec line on every shot.. and im sure ppl no them to just another way of putting people to sleep

my oppinion

The rule was added couple seasons back for sake of clarification in case there ever was to be any disputes on this topic...

A brief moment of foresight as it were - for once...

During this clan season i was think about an FA Cup (Funky Association Cup)

There is a total of 10/12 weeks for the comp to be played over... as a test i was think of limiting the number to 64 players. So that give the players two weeks to complete a match, just like the Clan League

With a limit of 64 players,that means out of 12 clans there can be 5 players from each clan, that means there is 4 left over.. The 4 extra players will be chossen at ramdom....

The player selction process could go as follows :

(A)
Captain send me the 5 players he/she wants to take part in FA CUP

(B)
Captain send me a list which is numbered, and from that list i selected the ramdom players... Eg... (Nutters clan list)

bazzacu
pot_the_lot
colio
dished
kaza
bloohound
warney7
blackpool2
vendetta

Before i request any clan list i will draw at ramdom 5 numbers ... So i done it there now and the numbers where i order

7, 3 ,1 ,9 ,5

The players that are selected where....

warney7 , colio, bazzacu, vendetta & kaza #

EASY!

So What You Think?

So is that an individual competition?

on the time limit thing:

could you keep it at 20s but introduce something like they have in the real game with one extension of say 20s for each player per rack?

That way it keeps the games fast but if you have a very tough shot you have that there to use...

would have to be set as 30 seconds though

hmm interesting

That requires a change to the funkypool game - which is sadly not all that likely to happen.

Yes m8 a single tourament that plays along side the team event

good idea bazzacu if its kept up to date

iv been requesting clan singles 9 ball to be updated for weeks, still not done, no table ,,,Q is who won

I have messages topsy about 9 ball, hopefully will be done soon

From my memory, __robdut__ was 1st before it got erased

Well, as far as I know, topsy has all the data, and even if not, they are still available in the results thread here on funky so producing a correct table is just a matter of putting in the work.

Nahh he deactivated i think, and results got took out, like mine

was someone else

and or the 4 extra places why not have the 3 individual winners and the golden cue winner (whoever did better out of the 2 winners or just div 1 winner)

Zante was talking about Rob I believe, Kev.

And he's probably right - Rob deactivated during that season I think, hence his scores will be removed (if that's correct).

If I don't hear anything from topsy in a couple more days, I'll grab the data from the result thread and stuff it in there myself.

It would also be tempting to use these data as testbed for my new web site, but that uses the new scoring system Keith suggested (score by game wins rather than just frames) so wouldn't be right for the past season anyway.

i think Kev means that topsy aint been on for a few days so cant update

True, I'm just sleeping
