On the issue of the aim bot video, the person that made it shared it with the site. It was never a secret, he made us and admin aware it exists and the reasons he made it. He also stated it is obvious it is in use as it is a slow process.

you would have to actually play games against the players you thought used it to actual have any basis for your allegations. You aren't available to play any games so your thoughts on it (which no-one said you couldn't air) hold no water.

I believe in leprechauns. I have no proof they exist and have never seen anything to suggest they exist but because I believe in them it must be true. That is basically the same as your arguement.

^ same with Santa Claus, except i stopped believing about 10 years ago

also others like Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny etc

Sean's an aimbot-using leprechaun

That explains why he is Irish

You would be interested to know that it used to be possible to hit a runout off every break without fail because the racks were identical - meaning once you found a great break, it would work everytime and some people were able to get a lot back to back. An update was brought in to randomize each rack so the balls would be slightly different each rack (like in real life), so that back to back runouts became much harder but not impossible to achieve back to back. It isn't uncommon for those runout specialists to hit a lot, it's also not unheard of for those same people to have a dry patch. If that is all they focus on, then they'll be pretty good at it (though it may be at the expense of their general play).

I would say the mention of an aimbot has tainted some peoples opinion on the true achievements. Right now there could be no one using it, yet any decent achievement will be scrutinized. As people have said though, you can spot it when you're playing them so I wouldn't worry.

Aimbot - don't think any of our top players would use it IMO. I don't get the point. I don't cheat at games as, you are only cheating yourself!

Game Time - I like the idea of less time per shot, tho I'd prefer 10 seconds over 5! Reckon I'd still have a bash at 5 tho. I know some members don't rate SL, so if I was gonna implement less time for shots in matches, it would be there.

I like the players champ but alot of byes.
Maybe players who wee responsible shouldnt be allowed back in Next season?

Discussion about aimbots: There was an aimbot here not too long ago. But unless someone is extremely clever about it, they're usually incredibly easy to spot. And let's be honest- pool is simply not that difficult. It's perfectly possible to pot something like 100-200 balls in a row. Look at straight runs...

Right just spent 20 minutes adding the FBL scores that have NOT been added to results threads!!!
Also had to work out some subs as they have simply not been put in the correct spot.
And I know horse has done this last week as well.
Can caps and vcaps PLEASE put scores in the right places and at the very least at the end of the fixture post complete scores.

Can league runner assistants please try to put FBL related rants on the correct thread please. I've just spent 20 minutes looking for FBL related rants on the FBL discussion thread, only to find it HERE!!!

In theory, are there enough Fixture Sets in 1 Season for me to play for every team?

I also take the point that a player can deactivate and set up a new account, but I'm not in agreement.
Players on here know who their Captain is, know the team that they are playin for, and, therefore make that choice for themselves.

No transfers and no window for me now. Seems from what I've read in other posts and from others' opinions, that:
Transfer Window causes teams to fold,
No Transfer Window and No Releases causes teams to fold,
and,
No Transfer Window and Releases causes teams to fold.........is there a right way to do it?

Brought all this over here because - put simply - the way that a league runner can discriminate between players, deciding who should be in what clans mid-way through a season and deciding whether or not someone is truly happy, is a bit of a joke.

Plus doesn't help our team thread when this discussion is taking place there.

Having read all this i have a question. If a player had wanted to leave UB and join BS would the decision have been the same and handled in the same way. I think Keith does an awesome job but he must stand above all this bickering and be totally impartial.Why is he trying to keep one of the teams afloat, Thats their captains job. Not his!! If he has recruited unreliable players thats his lookout , again not his. Having rows with _huts_ is not something he should need to do. Leave that to the moderators of the threads and the runners.
In regards to people leaving and just joining new teams.Its called poaching .........plain and simple. One teams short of players, approaches a good player and in a pm explains the way he can join another clan. Not rocket science and not fair. When a player signs on for a team he makes a comittment to that team. Its for the season as far as im concerned.
If its not then it makes a mockery of the rules

The problem is here that keith is allowing these silly things to happen about players moving when they want and it is causing majoy problems which is being ignored.

The job of being a league runner is to keep the league running well and stick to the rules that have been written. I also think common sense and fairness is important as when you see things like players crying to get a move its only going to harm clans and cause many arguements which we dont want .

We have so many people on here including myself that feel its important to have some sort of transfer window to stop this childish behaviour.

A vote would be good here and if you would like your say then speak up guys .

Transfer window - yes
Players crying to get a move - no

They are not breaking the rules they just have a different interpretation of them, pmsl.

Once they start breaking the rules THEY set, then chaos is the only outcome.

Once It's been allowed for one then it has to be allowed for all, get poaching for a replacement huts, moaning about it won't get you anywhere as you found out the first time.
