OK no abuse this is a genral rule in Uk 8Ball and would be a good addition

After an opponant has fouled maybe you could place the white ball behind the break line ? Then take your two shots ?

Also in US pool, you should be able to move the ball once you have placed it down, sometime i accidently click on the table and place the white ball down, i even sometimes snooker myself

i do that aswell guess_who you mean when your talking on PM and it's your shot and you click on the table to open funkpool if you get me and you place white accidently (not just in PM just and example)lol

In US 8 ball....concentrate then, if you mess up its ur fault

and in UK pool u cant, but not put it behind the break line ne way after a white has been fouled

guess_who i fought i was the only 1 to do that

yes you can check the rules

From the rules I have always played, the only time you choose where you put the white in UK 8 ball is when the white is sunk. If its a normal foul then I always play from where the white ball is, but have 2 shots, and have the option of a free ball.

I know everyone plays different, but personally I think the option of a free ball and 2 shots is enough, without also having a ball in hand.

In US I have always played ball in hand but only with one shot.

As for the second issue about moving the cue ball once it is already placed, after a foul in US, then this is on the to-do list.

The 2001 european rules up in our club give the option of a ball in hand to be placed behind the baulk line, but only one shot (as in US rules) and the standard 2 shots. But we only play preper UK rules

I cant resist mentioning that as long as the golden break rule still exists in anything other than 9 ball, the mention of rules from anywhere is nonsense!

And for the 1,000th time spinner!!!!

The funkypool rules are based on the official rules with a few variations that we believe (for the majority) add another dimension to the game.

LOL i musta missed the other 999 posts!

click on the rail, do it a few times you will do it out of habit

It has been integrated, its a feature of US pool..

But, more importantly, yet again we see why the multi-using policy needs to be tightened up!!!

wat effect does multi using have on the ball in hand rule?

I wasnt referring to the rule, rather the previous post :

Ive been reading my old posts ... and on ma old name Stretch i found this

Whats that got to do with this thread spinner?
Also why does it need tightening up?

Just stick to the topic!!

moving the cueball is what we call the old rules of pool but there were new rules brought out a few month back which say u cannot move the cue ball ofter a foul unless the cueball is potted

the new rules also say you dont get to carry 2 shots ... but hey its rules ...

AND SPINNER if you looked carefully at that link i sent in you would see that "stretch" got banned thats why im now force ... dont start giving comments and chaging posts when you dont read up fully ... there are plenty more threads about multi using , stick to them m8

I started a new thread on multi-using right after this. It was an excellent opportunity to show that banning is pointless as users just sign up again under a new name...

So you see force, i did look carefully and thats the reason for mentioning multi-using. I wasnt going to mention any more than that one sentence till it was asked about!

but the fact is its not multi using u idiot . Multi using is having more than one account . i have always had and always will have one active account . Stretch was banned for no reason therefore i created force and am still with force . So spinner before you make commets on multi using know what its about first
