So who goes up here? (the pool area Im talking about) I usually go up when i have a few breaks.

Those budding pool sharks out there should go in the comp every friday as you can win 40 bucks (a buck to enter), and get your name down to win like 200 at the end of teh semester. Its pretty good, because even if your opponent is betta than you, you can still win coz those pockets are pretty huge!

my logic is since the pockets are bigger, the outcome of the game becomes more influenced on random events rather than the skills of the players. Thus the chance of a crap player winning is greater with these random events than if it was based entirely on skill ie a huge table.

By random event i mean player attempts to sink ball in pocket A but ball rebounds, hits 5 other balls and they all go into pocket B. ie FLUKE


(which is a good think for the not so shark like)... ie a crap player can smash a ball and 5 can go in hehehe trust me ive done it :p If you know James hell tell ya! haha

ok think of you versing tiger woods in golf where the size of the hole was 90 km's in diameter.

Dont you think you have more chance of beating him than if it was anormal sized hole?

Thats my point, mr nit. :p

Damn, now I have something to think about. Just to sleepy right now.

And yes I do spend some of my time in breaks at the cubby. Actually I'm usually always somewhere in Wentworth during my breaks.

I don't go there because I'm not a fan of the Wentworth building.

The cubby has ping pong too, and there are some arcade games too.

Its much easier for a good player to run 5 or 6 balls as well though as you can get a lot more control on cue ball position with the extra pocket size. Playing 9-ball with those pocket sizes is a bit cuts, but 8-ball is OK.

Those pool comps aren't very impressive in terms of skill level, at least the one time I went, only 3-5 good players. I'd go more often except its friday at like 4pm or w/e. Went to the semis and got on the reserve list for the end of semester comp from just the one event lol. Pretty funny though because the semi final was the worst match I'd played all day, not that the other guy was bad, we were both about equal skill level but were just both off.

and yep, when you walk along the footbridge instead of going down a few steps to walk through the sliding doors where the campus newsagent/donut king/BB's is, just take the stairs on the left that go up, then you walk a little bit, then go up the stairs on the left again and ta da! there's the cubby /reading room
na, cant see what uve deleted :)
ok cool, i always wondered what was up those stairs after seeing people go up them.

well if there's a room with comfy chairs then all the cubby needs is a bar like someone else said! a bar, music, and pool tables are all u need!

Umm dont expect anything extravagant with the music... unless you wanna bring your own speaker system over! We can always clear a few pool tables and make a dance floor :p LOL

Actually those lounges are really dirty.

Anyway, my friends have finally gotten me hooked on playing pool even though i get the white ball in more times than any other colour. It's pretty good up there. The people are nice, the games are cheap and it's pretty fun when you're with a few friends there.
