Cool, cheers James

So to confirm, 3 fouls for the final rather than combo's?
Do we both have to agree?

I liked the 3 fouls rule it made it tactical but never went on too long, as one player eventually felt the benefit in trying to finish the frame anyway

Thats up to you guys, If you both don't agree on combos then do three fouls

Germany 1-1 Bangladesh (Germany wins on Penalties)

8US: 0-1 (Bangladesh Runout)
9US: 0-0
8UK: 1-0 (Germany Runout)

Germany got a runout in the 9US tie breaker

8US started very well for Bangladesh as he scores on his second opportunity (1st break for them) then in 9US Germany tried to set up Combos and had a brilliant chance at a Combo but failed and had to reflect on his chance. 8UK Germany Ran Out on their 3rd chance (2nd break) and narrowly missing a Runout chance two frames before. Germany got the Runout under the extreme pressure to take it to Penalties.

Penalties, Germany in 8UK again narrowly missing a 7 ball chance to win the match then in next frame Germany Ran Out in 9 Ball and then Germany played defensive as they surrounded Bangladesh so they couldn't score then Germanys Victory was sealed.

Well done to both teams and Well done Germany on Third Place.

Just The Final left then may do another one of these as i quite like it.

The Final

Grand Final will be six frames of 8US, 9US and 8UK so eighteen frames total. Goal if an event is scored in each frame then your total is ten goals but all eighteen could be completed.

If tied at end of match then a playoff will be played.

Uganda vs N Ireland



* as three fouls seems to be too tactical, i will give you guys the choice of three fouls OR win by a combination (Can't have both as other types wouldn't be weighted the same).

Playoff Format?
Games must alternate between two frames of 8US, 9US and 8UK, continue cycle until someone scores and the other misses. Me and Imran got talking and felt both guys should get chance to Runout so Combos go like this...

Player A Scores in Frame 1, Player B MUST score in Frame 2
Player B Scores in Frame 1, Player A MUST score in Frame 2
If No One scores in Frame One then whoever scores in Frame Two wins the match.

^ Amended format a touch to give equal breaking so someone not at a disadvantage

May run this a second time if people are interested, Those who failed to play Group Games last time may be monitored this time in case of repeat scenarios.

Also may add Straight to the Mix (Potentially 30+ Run or 30+ ahead at end of game could be a goal - one goal even if both conditions are met). Possibly Two to Four Frames.

* Subject to Change.

Will run this again as its fun and was successful last time, few bugs in Group Stage but those can be ironed out.

World Cup - Events Challenge

Rules

Group Stage
Six Frames of your type (Home) - Runout or Golden Break is One Goal (frames does not matter so nothing for frames), Semi events also count (7 Ballings and for 9 Ball, Combos or 3 Fouls).

If Straight is added then that will be Two Frames where events will be +30 ahead on points and +30 Run (both conditions if met in same frame is still one goal).

* Group Stage has no tiebreaker

Knockout Stage

Semi Finals and Third Place Playoff will be four frames of 8US, 9US, 8UK.

* Straight Two frames if added

Grand Final will be Six Frames of 8US, 9US and 8UK

* Straight Two frames if added

Tie Breaker

Games must alternate between two frames of 8US, 9US and 8UK, continue cycle until someone scores and the other misses. Me and Imran got talking and felt both guys should get chance to Runout so Combos go like this...

Player A Scores in Frame 1, Player B MUST score in Frame 2
Player B Scores in Frame 1, Player A MUST score in Frame 2
If No One scores in Frame One then whoever scores in Frame Two wins the match.

* Straight Two frames if added

Rules can change and Straight is just an Idea right now, unless it is popular then i won't add it.

Players from last time.

World Cup II - Players

dgeneratio - Germany
fr34k_p0t - Bosnia

Those who picked the countries last time own the rights to them so new players can't choose them unless relinquished by the player who picked it by picking another country (e.g. dgen was Germany last time so unless he picked a different country (e.g. Spain) then Germany can't be chosen).
