just wondering if the pro games can be removed from rank because its really hard to find anyone that wants to play rank in them now

i was thinking if your pro in one say 9pro then you add 50 points to your 9ball stats if your pro on both add 50 on both...or if your adept add 20 points on the certain on your adept on etc etc etc?

keep tourneys and friendlies for people that wanna play it but take rank away cos its hard to get on overall if you aint played any in one game?

suggestions please?

Well, sad as it is, and as mentioned elsewhere, i expect the old games have to go.

However, i do like the idea of them hanging around here as friendly only games.

I'm sure there will be a decision soon. They are certainly affecting overall ranks due to the difficulty in getting a game.

exactly what i said that's make a pro ranked league and have fixtures then that way the people that want to play ranked games in pro can have the opportunity to play someone rather than waiting ages and hopefuly someone will play against them.

it's worth a try because it's near impossible to get a game plus i don't want to see the pro games gone because there more of a game rather than these new games.

Well the ranked games can stay, but simply remove the pro games from the overall rank table.

There can be a seperate overall rank for pro games.

(I like this idea as i'd like to see a similar table to the arcade snooker one brought in for UK Pro)

What are you talking about i_love_emma?


The pro tables are the best tables for the best players and every pro tournament I play in has at least as many people taking part who are around at the time, and all the better players who I've asked (apart from about 1) say they prefer the pro tables.

When a tourny is on there are usually a few ranking games going on which means if there were more tournys pro table there would be more people playing ranked games.

I would play more ranked pro games if there were more people playing it but maybe with time more and more people will join the site and spread to the pro rooms especially if they cut the uk 8 from the us tourny schedule allowing for more of each us tournament.

Remove them from the overall rankings maybe but leave the ranking on them? its impossible to get a good over rank with them now especially for new
accounts!

Adds to the fun of it

I have never really taken a liking to either, part from the 9 ball was fun for a while...till it got annoying

Also, if anyone mentions cutting back the UK pool again...I shall not be best pleased
