Is it just me or do poeple think that the clan matches or clan league should be played in Original mode? I mean for a start we are playin snooker here. Arcade mode is 1. Far too easy. 2. Too much like pool. 3. Too easy for amazing players to up their stats and beat weak opponents.

Im not saying everyone should always play Original, just that the clan league probably should be on a harder table.

It's meant to be a close affair afterall, and to be honest, it just sucks to have game after game of pool snooker.

Indeed i realise this. It's just that the first 2 modes are very easy.

If people want to be in clans they should be the best and the best dont shine through on arcade or regular.

Its obviously not gonna happen. Just my two cents

Yeah i know. Most people in clans would not stand a chance against a professional or better on arcade or regular. At least on original people may stand a chance

There should be some kind of moderation on it all, with weak players playin at their ability and good players the same but it probably wont happen for a while, if ever

Well I think it's the opposite. Since original is much harder, weaker players are even weaker compared to people who can play it. Whereas in arcade, basically anyone who can hit a half century can beat anyone.

I can tell personally that I very hardly lose original games to lower-ranked players, but it happens much more often in arcade, and that's because it's easier for them to pot balls.

if you play a gr8 original player you will have no chance,

atleast arcade has more in offs, and bad position etc, more chance for lower players to actually pot some balls

We have to remember that apart from the clan league it is the clan captains/vice captains who organise clan matches. So in my view the responsibility lies with them to choose what table(s) the matches are played on.

somebody who is adept has every chance of beating a pro at arcade. i used to be a low adept at original yet i would have been hammered by a pro in original.

if the shoe was on the other foot and you were better at arcade than original i dont think you would have created the thread.
