is there any chance the site could do a handicap tourney ,
where players could get as much as a 60 points start..ive played in handicap tourneys for real in the past and they work really well.

obviously not everyone will get a 60 point start ,the handicap you get is based on your rank,

i.e a 600plus player verses a 800plus ranked player will get a biggger points start than a 700plus ranked player..so in real terms there may be just a 10 or 20 points start in the matches depending on rank,

you get my drift dont you?

yes but people can reset so i cant see this working.

That's the only problem

take fuzzy/damien for example, they like to reset their stats often so would it be fair to give them 30 point head start?

Well if you give fuzzy a 30 point head start in carom, there's no living organism in the planet that can beat him imo

i can see this idea, but surely newbies would not be able to enter anyway ?

people could still keep low rank intentionally though.

and susp in carom is 30 run lead

point (point) n.
5. (in sports and games) a mark or unit of scoring: He scored 13 of his team's final 19 points against Houston.

Hm hm hm. In sports and games. Definition doesn't exclude carom
Lol

You cant do it in carom as it only goes up to 5 lol and if you reset the handicap could stay the same?

Sorry computer lagging

To do a post seven times is a bit deliberate!

Okay so i am playing lets say fire_sword i have a 60 point head start in arcade i break and get a break of 24 on arcade i have a lead of 84 points and he needs 83 to win, He loses like 8 ranking points a bit of a daft idea in my opinion.

agree with i was there.. its a bit extreme

No point even discussing this idea to be honest. Similar things have been talked about before and clearly are not going to happen (which they rightly shouldn't!). If everyone tries to improve their skill level, then they will begin to compete - without needing a handicap.

also another thing, if some low ranked player got someone for example... mooney, who is top of arcade

if he got some 600 who has a high handicap, and he lost to him.. the other player would go blab about beating him
