Nah leave the Arcade alone, it's still the most popular game type by a long run so why take things off it.

I think if you can for some reason prove more people play PowerSnooker then go for it but I highly doubt it

nah leave carom in, there is only 1 a day and even though some people cant play it it may be an insult to the people who can.

Why cant the system start two tournaments at once. Give the option on an alternative basis.

Carom - Original
Arcade - Regular
Power - Carom
Original - Arcade
Regular - Power

Etc, the pattern is simple.

Chuck in a random tournament, plus any ranked tournaments inbetween the hours. Example -

13:00 - Carom/Original
14:00 - Random Tourny
15:00 - Arcade/Regular
16:00 - Original Ranked
17:00 - Power/Carom
18:00 - Arcade Ranked

This not only gives you the option of a wider range of games per hour but it also narrows the numbers of each tournament.

Maybe you should then be restricted to only joining one tournament, to then stop everyone joining both for the sake of it.

i dont think carom should be on here at all,let alone have a torny. Power snooker far more popular than carom-which people barely play,right now there is 1 carom game to around 25 power snookers,i believe whoever enters the carom torny are doing so looking for cheap wins.

so what?

lets take away arcade because "i dont like it" not a chance.

If we all took away what we didnt like there would be no funkysnooker as everyone has their likes and dislikes with game types, no disputing that.

If you dont like the game don't play it.

I think there's some little bug in the game....

Rocknolla got a cent of exactly 100 the other day and he wasn't awarded the 50 bonus points... Today the same thing happened to me, I got a cent of 100 and no bonus points.

Could someone look into this, cheers

Pretty sure this IS the case. Seem Power breaks of 100 aren't receiving bonus points. Just seen it in-game.

From Power rules said:
A century break in any frame is worth 50 bonus points. If this is repeated in the next frame, 100 bonus points. If this is repeated in the third frame, 200 bonus points.


100 is still a century break. just.

Pool has double the registered users that snooker has! You cannot compare the two! Have you ever been on here after 4am? Its impossible to get a game.

i think one of the reasons pool has tourneys at UK nighttime is because they have more american players (?)
