everytime i see a century come up i think did he/she clear so i think it should come up like this

ANNOUCEMENT: orignal - cosworth got a break of 100 (clearance)

obvs this wouldnt include arcade but still effective

Why wouldn't it include Arcade?

It obviously has to be a clearance on arcade if its a break of 101 - 107. Although i agree that it would be needed for a break of exactly 100. I dont think a break under a century would merit having (clearance)* beside it.

i presume you mean total clearance rather than just a clearance

Good point, at total clearence is all the reds (10 arcade, 15 reg and orig) potted and all the colours while a clearence clearing not all the reds but clearing the rest of the table, e.g 6 reds and all colours.

That would be a nice feature. We could even expand it to all kinds of clearances, like:
ANNOUCEMENT: orignal - damee got a break of 118 (total clearance)
ANNOUCEMENT: orignal - damee got a break of 102 (13 reds clearance)
ANNOUCEMENT: orignal - damee got a break of 51 (3 reds clearance)

Also I don't agree with the following point:

A total clearance is a nice achievement in any case, no matter whether it's a century or not. After all in both cases 26 balls (36 for orig) have been potted in a row.
... Actually I think that's the whole point in this feature request, as it would give more information about the kind of achievement every break is! If I made a break of 97 in original, or 82 in arcade, and if it was a total clearance, I would be very pleased and proud to see it written next to the announcement.

yes nice idea cosworth and as blutch said if i got 70 clearance it was shown it would show people how hard you worked and you would be disapointed if it didnt show. same with total clearance.

hope this gets implemented

id also like it to show "clearance" so that when i got 94 people can tell that it wasnt a clearance, so it shows that i missed a 107 on the pink

What if they pot 2 reds in 1 shot?

I think it is only worthwhile if it is a total clearance.

I think they should still have Clearance next to their name, as they still managed to clear the whole table.

I was refering to when he said 36 for orig and 26 for arcade balls for a total clearence, pot 2 reds in 1 shot, and you take 1 less colour, if you read my post properly you would know what i meant.
