They can be in the top 10... because its called playing ranked, then never again . In your experience, which means you basically never check, because the amount of 900s, in my opinion, are just having a one-off (not necessarily talking about all the virtuosos .

Also, look at the legendary players who aren't in the top 10. You saying they aren't the best? For example, me (couldn't leave that out lmao), ste_efc, kaison, virtuoso107. The amount of centuries we've () all had, not to mention the other achievements, is by far a massive step forward in funkysnooker history?

*cough* orig?

Someone loves themself! As for Kaison, i'd be at the front of the queue to to say he is massively overrated as a player. As for you , I couldn't comment because i've never had the pleasure.

As for the rest of what you've said it makes no sense at all, I mean in the reading sense rather than the basis of the argument, so I can't comment

kaison overrated? i gotta disagree, to be fair ive never had much experience against him but looking at his stats... how many tournies did that guy win? and lots of 107s. definately in the top ten for me, but i couldnt pick ten guys, it would be far too hard.

Wow, nail on the head.

Kaison is a brilliant player i've played him a good few times he's not overrated at all like alot of players....

Woah! didn't even see the kaison bit,

how is he overrated ? he has hundreds of centuries and thousands of halfs let alone hundreds of tournaments the only player ever to reach 100 tournaments on arcade!

Jeeeesh Now i Think about it I see what you mean he is overrated

OMG I should of looked more into my Top 10 :P

heres my New list All 9 of the sharpshooters and ste_efc

COME ON TEAM

My point re Kaison is i've played him a number of times, won most and not been too impressed with his style of play. Yes he's won lots of tournies but how many of them have come at 1am when no-one else is on??!

Come to think of it, maybe my low opinion of him boils down to the fact his profile tells people when they are entitled to think about asking him for a game!!

Really???!! You mean anything within that first paragraph makes any sense whatsoever? Doesn't to me.

BTW Mohammed Ali is a legendary boxer but would he fall in the current top 10?

Kaison is not over rated, that comment is way below the belt! Kaison is up there with the best, he knows how to work an opponent whether to play tactically or go for the kill, people like you are just jealous in my opinion!

On the rank subject i only ever play rank and i basically play any 1, i got too 993.7 by playing anyone. Also iv hit 990 plus 4 times by just playing anyone, you just have to catch me on a bad day and your in with a shout. I'd also like to add that 98% of my centurys/halfs/107's have come in ranked games. .

Love your "big headedness Lyle", you have to be big headed to be successful just look at boxers.

Your entitled to your opinion as i am to mine. There's no jealousy on my part (i've got a decent record of my own thanks ) - i play the game for a laugh and if i win i win. I also play anyone whether they are 960 or 660, doesnt bother me either way.

My comments were regarding a statement that if you make the top 10 in ranked it doesn't mean you are any good. In my opinion you have to be a good player to get that high.

On here it's like an old school playground, if your one of the old crowd your considered to be a good player but if your new then your not.

Fair enough i know its your opinion and i stated mine! whilst on this Subject I'd prefer Kaison's stats than yours, and I'm pretty sure 90% of the users who play regularly would prefer Kaison's .

Sorry about the dig.

I agree

But look how long i've been playing

Right, the fact of the matter is no matter who you play, them stats are incredible. Also if you ever are on at 1am (not me ), you do generally get quite a few decent players on at that time.

Playing 600's or 900's, that rank he has had still takes some doing.

Ive played him a couple of times, he is a great player, obviously people have bad days and you just might have seen him not playing at his best. While i have and i can safely say mabye only 1 or 2 can beat him at his best. And that's final.

Ranking: 867.1
Maximum: 993.0
Wins: 5,888 (77.3%)
Losses: 1,726 (22.7%)
Abandoned: 61 (0.8%)
Highest Break: 107
Occurrences: 53
Centuries: 180
Half Centuries: 2,207
Tournament Wins: 177

Don't no how anyone can say kaison is overrated with them sort of stats, i've played him a few times and he is without a doubt one of the best, for those who think hes overrated why not play him more often and you'll soon change your opinion, i guess you've been catching him on a bad day!!

53 107s...cant be overated... most people cant get 1 century.. so he is one of the greats..

I'd say it would be more like 99.5 % lol

just to explain, u have no idea how often i get players asking me for a friendly game, and most of the time I have to return the answer of "sorry, im in the tourny"

Well the thing is aswell, when there's a tourny on, there kaison online
