Would it be possible for it to play a little sound when your opponent misses? Let's face it, it gets very frustrating watching someone else clear up, and I often find myself meandering towards Facebook. Instead of sitting there twiddling your thumbs for 5 minutes as he or she amasses a huge break you can use other websites or applications without fear of getting a time-out random shot. The 5 seconds left alarm doesn't really give you time to minimise whatever else you're doing and line your shot up.

lmaoooo
same happens to me but we just need to learn to stop been nosey on facebook and concentrate on our games haha

i was thinking this would be a great option last night.

maybe as an option when opponent pots a ball it could so a beep of some sort.

I am very busy when im online and as well as playing ill 98% be on other sites.

since the new sound update which i like alot i have come across myself missing shots because i simply cannot dictate wether they have potted or not so im always rushing for the 5 second beeper.

Like i say as an option so not all players have to have it maybe a bleep to say its my go or a faint bleep when they have potted.

It is frustrating for those like myself who need to be on other websites.

Deffo agree with this!

I like the new sounds for sure, but the potting sound (even though it's more realistic) is near enough inaudible. This means you have to be watching the game to know when your opponent has missed.

I like the idea of having a 'bleep' sound to tell you when it's your shot. Would be very helpful.

Try hearing the sound of the pocket because if you don't hear that then it's your go but do have an extra sound when the white or the wrong ball goes in

You lads need to stop multi tasking. You've proved us males can't do it so leave it to the women!

LOL at that ^^^

i think it would be a great idea just for a little bleep to occur when your opponent misses - for those on other sites, whilst i dont have facebook i do go on other sites and when i have music on (which is a 100% chance) i find it hard to hear the pot.

would be a good introduction

basically the option for a bleep

when the player at the table changes

that would resolve this issue and for those who dont want it you dont have to turn the option on.

Should get what my computer has and thats a sound mixer, i have funky on full but other stuff on low, never miss a shot
