Yeh but this whole topic is based around Damee & carom. :P

Well, if it's based around 'damee' my contribution of him being the best ever is on topic then.

Yeah but the idea that it's easy to gain loads of rank is wrong in my opinion. I think it was harder to gain rank because there was no one to take any off.

and what about success %?
Surely the most accurate indicator

the top 5 is
not in order derry fuzzy destiny torrres tiimmmyyy

The same as a lot of peoples these days?

I'm not saying he wasn't a good player. He was very good, I'm just saying I personally wouldn't class him as all time top 5.

Wasn't he consistently on 55-60%? Maybe I don't remember correctly.

I left for a long time so he may did get to that %.

But from what I remember when I played, he was around 45-50%

not necessarily. those who have reset recently it shows how they are playing now but for those of us who have never reset, all our time learning is keeping our turn % down a bit.

Yeah % has problems, but still a fairly accurate indicator. Certainly better than the rest of the stats out there.

games per 5+ is a good one i always feel. says a lot.

same problem as for success % though. If you reset your games per will be higher.
I would also rather get consistent 3-4 than some games 5+ some games nothing

makes you a more consistent player, not a better player though. a top player can work on consistency a lot more easily than an average player can work on skill...

i see your point though.

lets say someone keeps hitting 2s ...not more, not less...

thats 66,6% which is just amazing... its a little proof that succ. % is a bit more important than runs.

Most of the frames nowadays i hit 3 or 4 points. Then knowing that i'm above 66% with a 3 run, i lose focus a bit, and so i do not hit a run ... i know, i need some kind of therapy lol

P.S Damee is around 53-55%.

P.S2 reseting is fine.... keep in mind that in real life players' careers, succ % starts after the have become pros, not from day 1, when the dont know anything about the game.
So, inevitably players such as adam_147 or whocares8x8 are in fact higher than what their % shows....
Come oooon, reset guys, dont be scared!!!!

P.S3 than u all for nominating me...so honoring !!!

Fuzzy has a ps3??? I always had him down as an xbox360 man.

lmfao Adam!

P.S4 Kaison had 4 back to back 5+runs against me.... top5 appoaching fast ...fuzzy says.

you stole my line . and definitely future top 5 material is kaison

Kaison and skillz are the ones to look out for in the future, great carom minds.

cheers 2good4you, kaison will definately be up there shortly

EDIT: know who he is now
