Hey,

This aint the most important suggestion, and probably quite pointless

But just as something new.

When a member clears up, Pots every ball. Could have a annoucement to say:

lfc_lad just got a clearance with a break of xx!

107/147 will auto get this message. obviously.

and then maybe have a clearance stat.

Yes i love the idea but the only downside is that the message could flood the server because there are alot of really good players on here and when 3/4 of them are on they could start clearing up for the fun of it and end up flooding the server with Announcements and maybe even crash the server

I dont think it will crash the server. Every clearance is a half century at least anyway.

57 is the minimum possible amount of points on arcade... and that is getting a yellow after every red. which tbh i dont think has ever happened? lol

So an announcement already displays at the moment.

It would be IF member has potted maximum amount of balls (27 in arcade?). then display clearance announcement ELSE display normal announcement.

not true a clearence is where you are so many points behind lets say i am 21 behind and there is 22 on the table and i clear up the rest of the balls and win the game. That my friend is a clearence.

To stop people getting confused, When you have cleared every ball on the table in 1 break (15 reds and all colours orig and regular, 10 reds and colours for arcade), thats a total clearence

When it aint every ball on the table (not all the reds and colours on the tables, e.g 3 reds and all the colours), that is a clearence.

Clearance
In snooker and British pool, the successful potting of all object balls-on in a single frame. A player is said to have "cleared up" or to have "cleared the table". Also, if a snooker player compiles a break consisting of all 15 reds with colours, then the colours in sequence, this is known as a "total clearance".


Damee you are correct mate, Then announcement would be:

lfc_lad got a total clearance with a break of 'XX'

i didnt mean every time a player pots the last ball and effectively 'clears the table' an announcement should pop up.

I was going to call it a whitewash... but that is when the opponent been hammered without winning a frame out of multiple frames.

Then you don't clear up biscuits! so no announcement would be made!

Virt - what about clearances with lower colours, when you get in the 80s or 90s, but it is still a full clearance ... should these show, as they are less than a ton....?

Having said all that, I like the idea though
