This really irritates the life out of me, every cursor I seem to use does it so I cant do anything about it but...

When I play carom and I am trying to clip the ball thin, I aim the cursor on the ball and the white of the aimer, is overlapping the ball im aiming for, I can see the yellow/red underneath the white aimer yet...

I do NOT make contact with the ball im aiming for! It just glides past it without making contact!!

Something needs to be done or someone needs to tell me how I can fix this, drives me mad! Costs me mega % I have just missed it 4 times in a row!!!!!!!

Arghhhhhh

happens to me on arcade for cuts... never happend to me on carom but i dont play it much because i usually just make mistakes and hit the ball full in the face, so i dont need cuts in carom

Hah!

My eyesight is perfectly fine and im not colourblind

Can it seriously only be me that does this? Maybe I should make some videos bcoz im 99.9% sure its not the same for everyone else. Carom would be so much easier if it hit where it was suppose to!

Off to specsavers I guess...Oh wait, I'll have to find my dog and stick...

No offence, but doesn't this imply that it is something to do with you rather than the game. In which case, why the thread?

Well Buddytobud...I know people have it the same as me.

But I think its strange if only a smallish % had this happen to them.

So why does it only happen to certain people and not everyone?

What's your screen resolution?

It also happens sometimes to me, but I learned to live with it: I anticipate the problem by moving my cursor towards the object ball a few pixels...
