My top 3 in each discipline

US8
1. antione08 - tournament wins and form earlier in the year
2. master_p00l - consistently good
3. cphaynes - maintaining a high rank for a long period of time

US9
1. ucyforit - use of the 3 foul rule
2. hippesville - consistently one of the best
3. chris - tremendous amount of run outs

UK8
1. onua0767 - for reaching the heights he did
2. _k1rk_ - his style of play and since he's abandoned resetting think he's found his form again
3. ukspinshot - was the one who taught me how to play UK and reached virtuoso as well

Straight
1. dark_chocoo - couple century runs
2. eemad - highest run recorded
3. perfect_play/shooter001 - one cent and the other consistent!

Killer
1. janmb - class act
2. al_ - class act
3. buzznuttly - someone who goes largely unnoticed but is nevertheless a very good player

Overall Top 5

1. destiny
2. onua0767
3. dark_chocoo
4. perfect_play
5. whocares8x8/al_

Those are my opinions. Don't blow my head off it's just what I think from who I've watched, played or heard about. Wish everyone the best of luck for 2011 hope its a good one for you.

Gotta be the Spoon ... oh wait.. valuable.. hmm

Top 5

1. ucyforit (all round)
2. al_ (all round)
3. dark_chocoo (for his straight abilities)
4. onua0767 (tournament wise)
5. diamond_cut or janmb (for their Killer Abilities)

Few players, no real order

onua - mainly uk but all round he's a quality player

janmb - killer been consistently high ranked through the year (still to beat my 970+ killer rank though eh Jan? )

mich - for being a noob, and not a bad player (this one probably a bit biased)

ucyforit (recently been up there at the top and doing well)

al - been consistently high for a long while now and a very good player

Baring in mind I had a long patch recently of not really noticing the stats.

Can we have one for Most Improved Player.. cos i might get in top 10 then

same here especially how I have been playing lately.

Most Improved 5

1. Welshdragon
2. Spoonie
3. Davybaumers
4. Cphaynes
5. Nh425

IMO in comparison to how they played Jan 2010 to how they play Jan 2011.

davybaumers has been around for years lol and has always been good as far back as i remember

most improved 5 (no order)

1. me ( I have beat my maximum in tournament which was 10)
2.spoonie
3. perfect_play
4. ucyforit
5. antione08

It's bad taste to put yourself top fella. You seem a bit bigheaded. Those guys have always been good...

didnt you see, when I wrote(no order), and yes they were always good but doesnt mean they didnt improve.

Only really have 2 players for most improved...

1. diamond_cut - Until about 5 or 6 months ago I didn't see the guy on the radar so to speak but then he started becoming noticable on his various other accounts. He then took a week or 2 break and went to snooker when he deactivated apples_back and just came back and IMO is one of the toughest to play now, never look forward to seeing his name in a tournament as he seems to be my bogey player.

2. master_pool - While some people may think this is a tad biased as he is one of my greatest pals on here lat year whenever I saw his name I thought (and no disrespect Matt) "GET IN, Easy tourny win" However now he has come good and damn does he like to give me a hammering.

There are a lot of top players!

Top in all games:

1. ucyforit (overall)

8 ball billiards: _redherring_
9 ball billiards: diamond_cut
8 ball pool uk: onua0767
