Hey cool, thanks for the tip. Yeah I think the computer does cheat.Originally Posted by taterbug
Do you see the little square that pops up around the cue ball after the computer scratches? You can put your cursor over the ball, hold your left mouse button down and move it anywhere behind the line. I just figured that out yesterday!Has anyone else noticed that the computer cheats?
I am not proud of this but sometimes, I tell the computer exactly what I think of it's behavior...
The arcade is still free at a moment, so that's probably why you weren't charged.Originally Posted by twstychik
Ok, I think there's a problem with the cost to join a tourney! I went to see who had started ones and which were open and this is what I saw...
Brasil Slingo Tournament Costs to join: 0 \t
Bookworm Tournament \tCosts to join: 0500 \t
Brain Buster Tournament Costs to join: 0500100
Brain Buster Tournament \tCosts to join: 05001000
8 Ball Champion Tournament \tCosts to join: 050010000
Those can't be right... can they?
ETA: I just registered for Brain Buster Tournament \tCosts to join: 05001000 and it didn't charge me anything.

Bubble Shooter and 8 ball have me yelling out LIAR a lot.
I had 500 extra points too. It might be for being in #1 place for a game? Not sure.Originally Posted by taterbug
Can someone explain the 9ball game to me? I can't read German!Do you have to hit the solid or stripe balls? Why does it deduct 25 points everytime you hit a ball?? Help??
ETA- Hey! I have 500 extra points?? How did that happen? Does signing up for a tournament grant points??
Thank you, but I meant the new 9 ball game.Originally Posted by Natalie_ca

So far as 8 ball. I've only played it a few times. But the first ball that either you or the computer get into the pocket becomes your colour. Say the computer gets one of the striped balls into a pocket, they then have to shoot striped balls and you get the plain ones. If you happened to get the first ball into a pocket, you would then shoot at whatever type of ball you sunk.
Apparently if the computer sinks the white ball, you get to move the white ball wherever you want. Left click in the faint square that surrounds the white ball and drag it to your desired position.
To shoot at a ball you left click on the pool cue and drage it backwards and then let go. The cue springs forward and hits the ball in it's path.
If you are supposed to be shooting striped balls and when you shoot you accidently hit the computers plain coloured one first, you lose your turn and the computer gets their turn. If the computer hits one of your balls first, then it loses a turn and you get to shoot.
The idea is to get all of your balls into the pockets, pick a pocket to shoot the 8 ball into and then try and get it into that pocket. If you do you win. If you don't the computer gets a turn and it will sink it guaranteed.
Hope that helps
