I think it would be good if when you make a 147 break in practice an announcement is made to the chat room.

Just a way around the whole ''i just made a 147 IN PRACTICE'' discussion. Also because even though its practice it is still an achievement and nice to have others see youve completed such a task.

it will also help players to really work on there playing skills knowing they can take all day if they like, but make the 147 and others will be announced.

Let's face it, if someone was practising arcade the last thing they would want is to actually admit it .

It is one of those ideas which wouldn't do any harm, but one which wouldn't have much dramatic effect either, so I doubt it would get implemented

Mate if you can hit a 147 in arcade then !!!! whooop eee doooo!!! you can have a free parker pen aswell.

a max in arcade is 107, this is actually not a maximum snooker break, a 147 is!!! nothing else.

so as i was saying a 147 is an achievement, a 107 isnt its just snooker on easy easy mode!!!

Completely agree! I also thin it should be for arcade (maybe) reg carom and power..runs over 5 for carom..and 100+ on power?

think all max breaks should be announced, an arcade max might mean little to some but were not all gifted like you lot.....and even better putting your best break from each type on your profile!

too many people hit them though!!

main problem would be too many announcements flying around, and with the greatest respect this is practice you can tke 5 hours to plan your next shot if you wish, so get off the bloody arcade table and crack on with the others!!!

loooooool

also no one cares if youve got a max arcade break.

at least a 147 in practice gives you some bragging rights.

''just got a 107 in practice''

well done join the other 5000 lad!!! its just not much to shout about anymore.

ive always wanted to see longest win streak on profile.. i know u will probably get some glory hunter doing it so they only play newbies and low ranks but thats upto them saddos if they want to do that.. would be good to see how many people win in a row without losing a game..

The one thing I agree with here is, practice cents being announced like runs do in practice Carom, all types BUT arcade. As arc is too easy for cents. Orig an reg take more patience and more positional sense.

Still not having cents on arc being announced is prejudiced. Just because some people play a type (arc) more than others, doesn't mean the achievement is less to them. It's not going to hurt anybody having the odd...

Arcade snooker somebloke got a practice break of 103

pop up every now and again?

if this is going to happen it should be for...

Normal Types (inc arc even if its not normal): 100+ Only
Power maybe 175+ but of course the practice table needs fixing for that to happen
Carom 10+

Why not have an option to turn announcement off if you don't want them no one reads them anyway really lol so there pointless

agreed, i would keep them on of course but might be useful for moderators to keep track of the chat going on

no one reads them anyway really lol so there pointless

wouldn't say that but i would say 100+ (150+ Power, 10+ Carom) is an achievement so i look at those more
