the respotted blacks on this game are so stupid! the other guy missed and i clear up all the colours to make it a tie. and yet the shot is automatically given to him.

HOW IS THIS FAIR?!?!

anyone half decent on this game can pot a black from a placed white.

Its utterly ridiculous that even though i didnt miss i still lose the game. surely it should be in some way random who gets to play or even the person whos shot it was last.

this has happened a few times now and i find it so annoying

can anybody understand that post?

I agree, it's a little unfair, you make a great comeback, goes to the respot, and you lose, everytime without question.

I think either random selection (which could go with a cool graphic of a coin toss..!) or the person to potted the pink takes it.

potted... being on the winning side isnt the point i am making, its not fair for whoever wins to win in that particular way as i was clearly saying.

Really like the coin toss idea!

i dont like the fact tht the respot automatically goes to your opponent, but if u know it will all the time then u can always play for a snooker, if it gets randomised then u may clear up and still not get the shot

the player who potted the black to tie the game should get the choice to take it or pass it on

Ummm..... why dont they just give the respot opportunity to the person who potted the last ball to make it a draw? surely thats the fairest way?

Even a coin toss is unfair if you've cleared up to tie then lose cos ur opponent has potted from the respot

once, my opponent got a break of 51, then I cleared up with a break of 51 and the respot went to him. He won of course, so basically I just wasted my time in clearing up. A coin toss is definitely needed.

actually....a coin toss would be fairer...cos it'd b unfair on the person who initially made the break to lose to a comeback and a respot.


how do they do it in the real game of snooker?
