Additional info for the killer games:

Anything goes!!
In team killer, safety taps, intentional fouls, etc. are all allowed and encouraged!
Anything that you need to do to win the game for your team.


Again, in the current rule set, can you show me the rule that states this please?
There are a number of things that aren't in the rules that are still in place here. Not every eventuality can and should be covered. Every clan is aware of the killer rules.


If every clan should be aware, then it should be in the rules.

Killer

me vs w_hoolahan m_wood garethclin

They deliberate fouled, so we'll take the points, what ever they are.

9.0 Code Of Conduct
d) There are no "pushouts" in snooker. When snookered, make an honest attempt to hit a ball that is on.
Anything goes in team killer. It's been like that since the beginning...


Can I see the rule that overrules '9.0 - d) There are no "pushouts" in snooker. When snookered, make an honest attempt to hit a ball that is on.' please.


I think Seb and the others have clarified this issue enough now, from now on we all know basically anything is allowed in killer to help your team to victory.
But just if you're still not convinced...the rule says "There are no "pushouts" in snooker."
Actually killer IS pool. I know it is played on an arcade snooker table but it is brought in as a pool game, officially there is no such game as killer snooker, its called killer pool. So its pretty much like carom a game that arguably shouldnt be on a snooker site but is just brought in here for some more fun.
So strictly speaking, rule 9D only applies in arcade, reg, orig and maybe power, as it clearly says "snooker".

No, every clan IS aware.
I don't see a need for it to be in the rules, otherwise we turn out with a set of rules 10 pages long. It's already a bit long as it is.

joeyy 2 vs 4 scott7a

him 65,74,65,75,54

tough games he got the best of the chances in most frames. I didn't have much luck when splitting balls landing on nothing or them going safe. biggest chance for me came in 5th frame where I was left in the balls around black spot but splitting reds from black one went in the middle leaving him with the chance he hit 75 from without any trouble.
without couple of mistakes from him I could have been whitewashed without really making many significant errors.
he took his chances very well 5 50+ breaks in 6 frames shows it

There is....

9.0 Code Of Conduct
d) There are no "pushouts" in snooker. When snookered, make an honest attempt to hit a ball that is on.


Are you serious. Actually spouting off about this rule when on three seperate occassions i have quit games because of your non compliance to it.

As far as im concerned the aim of THIS game,killer, is exactly that. To kill off your opponents in anyway you can. If i have 3 lives and you1 i can play the cue ball into a position that you cannot pot easily, losing 1 life,you miss , i win. That is killer.

In snooker playing a pushout to give your opponent a calculated difficult shot is unsporting and in my oppinion a form of cheating. Made even worse when done by a so called proffesional against a less proficent player.

Winning at all costs is not what its about

I should sort your self out before having a pop at others.

I don't agree with 'anything goes' myself, in a normal killer game I believe anything less than making a decent attempt to pot no matter how awkward, regardless of how many lives you or your opponent(s) have is bad sportsmanship, however.. I can understand in clan killer and the competetive team nature of it, how this would be different. If it were me, I wouldn't choose to purposely play a shot that was no attempt to pot just to make it difficult for my opponent, but it's personal choice and securing a win at any cost is the overall goal I suppose. When it's 3 of one team 1 of another.. You can't expect any less. You were very unlucky you had no support, it could have been a different result altogether.
