Surprised so many people like it sure it's only novelty value though and everyone will drop it in a couple of days. a good edition for mobiles but shouldn't be included in overalls or the tournament list imo.


It's going to be removed from both random tournaments and overall. Both of these were accidentally left on! Their re-inclusion depends on usage and can be considered later. It will have tournaments though.

Yep, regular tournaments will start when there's a few more non newbies.

When you bring out the 9 ball version of it, can you call it Ultimate Flukeball or something along those lines

I don't see why 9 ball arcade would be invented and brought in, lol. That would be too much xD

On that note - feedback: I would vote against a 9 ball arcade being brought in

same here as its already known for flukes really.

1 type is alright but if it gets put on them all then its nothing special anymore.

i like it but if it gets put on all types the smaller balls may lose population.

killer and straight would be interesting though.

Why would you vote against it? The table graphic and code is already created - it just needs some configuring so just a day or so of my time. It wont be for a bit of time though, I want to see how new users react to 8 ball arcade.

but i do think it a better game for newbies to learn on.

certainly but i know im using snooker as an example but think of original, best type there is and because its harder people will hardly play on it as arcade is much easier.

i don't agree or disagree to have 9 ball arcade but all im saying is eventually UK, US and 9 Ball will lose attractiveness as now you have the same table only zoomed in like a 24" monitor.

but at the same time its always nice to have a variety of game types.

billards and doubles maybe another thing to keep interest going, especially doubles as most of the oldies, ill use madmiketyson as an example, he told the world he would only return if doubles was on the site, even if its friendly to start with its a start.

Fine, but you can't have 8 ball UK Arcade anyway xD
I'm all for it, why not, as said, if you don't like it then don't play it.
But wow, when I switch from 8 US Arcade do 8 ball US or 9 ball, my eyes hurt and now the balls which used to seem normal for me seem too small and the table is too large xD

Damn should play it more rarely.

Only problem I see is them taking up space in the tournament schedules. Couldn't they be like the friendly tournaments and be at half past the hour?
Oh and a 'hide arcade' tickbox in the profile options would be good so I can get rid of it off mine
