well, now we've both completed all 4 rounds... seems stuck!

You need to sink the balls in numerical order starting with the 1 ball and ending with the 9 ball. I know the instructions aren't in english, you use the mouse to pull back the cue stick and line it up with the ball you want to hit, aim for a pocket. Good luck! It's pretty tricky.

You're welcome xocats.


I'm also bumping this thread up for another member who had some questions about the arcade and tournaments.

9-ball is a tough game.
I can't control were the balls go.

I played it a couple of times, and hit submit credits, but it doesn't save my score. A box comes up saying something like the game did not save you score. How do I save my credits?

I've had that happen, too. I think it may have something to do with getting logged out b/c you're not doing any actual posting or something.
I'd like to find out for sure why that happens myself...

Is this the score you were talking about?

Usually, just clicking the submit credits button works...but the window that comes up doesn't show it. You just have to look for it, or tht's what I've had to do a few times.

Has anyone else had problems with the 8 ball game? I'm in a tournament, and every time I try to break, the cue freezes up! Could it be my computer?

I am in a bit of a hurry this morning but...
to check if I had a problem with 8-ball, I played about 5 hits with no locking of the pool stick....
it was working normally.

I use IE 7 as my browser. If you haven't' already, I would go into my internet browser and delete, files, cookies, and history to see if that helps.

Later today I will play a full game and report back.
Let us know if you get it figured out.

You have got to get this fixed...
we need you in our tournments.

Thank you! I've tried everything! Deleting files, cookies, uninstalling Java and active x controls and reinstalling them and nothing has helped. I've never had this problem with it before, until I tried the last tournament.
Of course,I'm going to keep trying! I'm addicted!


The game loads fine, I can select my cue, rack the balls, but the minute I release the mouse/cue stick to break, the stick stops just a hair of hitting the ball!!

I just got back online....

Have you re-set your pop-up blocker or security setting lately?

Nope! All of that is the same! It must be something with my computer, I guess.
All the other games I've played work just fine, which I find odd. Oh well, I'll figure it out sooner or later!
Thanks again!

Hopefully a technically oriented member will have some more ideas for you.
Let me know when you get it fixed.


One other thought...
have you recently changed the style that you use for your page colors from the Quick Style Chooser?
If you have go back to the one you were using and see if that makes a difference.
