I know this has probably been brought up before but is it possible to have a re rack option in matches. I don't know how difficult the coding would be but it would be a definite improvement if it could be done. I was stuck in this situation for at least five minutes with neither of us wanting to play a risky shot that could knock in the black

that isnt possible for tourneys, as there is a time limit

Hmm, but what if, either play could request a re-rack and then a message the other asks if they want to.... but only if no balls are potted after a period of time... lets say, if 5 mins goes past without a pot, then the option becomes available. However, if both parties agree to it, if in a tourn, the timer for the game stays as it is, to ensure the tourn continues, so it'll also be a risky option, as there's more chance for a dq, but hey, what fun !

technically it could work as both players would have to agree so they would run the risk of disqualification (like Carrying on when opponent leaves).
In that situation Ross, If i was in front as much as he is i would decline the re rack as i am 57 in front with 59 available. If scores was closer i would accept

I wouldn't accept either, I'm just giving an example.

Maybe this is a good time to change the double disqualification rule too. Too many people are playing for the double dq nowadays, some are even purposely disconnected. I think the player with the most points should always win and with that rule the re-rack would be alot easier.

^No, because then you would have people with a slight lead purposely slowing down the games to a crawl to win it.
With a 1-0 lead on points, they could do the disconnected trick described above and win the game...
