It's a good game. The only thing I don't like about it is the spotting the pocketed balls after the break. I once made 6 balls and was left with a long row of spotted balls. They should count as 1 point.

This sounds great!

I was going to just do 9-ball, though I'm a novice player. I was going to play it on my own and keep count of the fouls, and the number of turns I took to complete each game.

But this is much better.

Fargo Jr. 9 Ball Rack

After break, spot pocketed balls, ball in hand.

2=Each ball worth
1=If you miss, shoot where ball lands

Pocket all balls, +2 bonus
Scratch, frame over.

20 points max per frame
10 frames
200 point max.

175-200 points? Play Fargo

I was trying to play Fargo and was getting very frustrated because i would miss or hook myself after one shot.

Fargo Jr. Might be better for someone who's still trying to control the cue ball and not the best at pocketing.

well I tried it two days ago and here's my quite lousy score:
4/15/3/9/5/2/7/4/9/8= 67 :S
I can do better than that :)

The only thing you didn't explain is what happens if you miss a shot. Are you stuck with whatever score you have at that point, or do you keep shooting? Is this game just for advanced players or are we operating under the assumption that everybody watching can run a full table?

Per the rules mentioned in the end of the video, one ends a frame when all the balls are cleared or when one misses a shot. If one misses on is left with the total number of points one had up to the last pocketed ball.

Ah I think I missed the keymeaning of the word rotation: playing the balls in order. Thus when one switches to rotation immediatly it would be '15 ball' starting with ball in hand. Which is very hard (to me) indeed.

I thought one could pot random balls in de rotationfase as well, counting as 2 points. Ah righttt. Well Ill post my 10 game result some day.
