Not gonna lie that's the calmest I've ever heard someone die at the last part of the run on WR pace and just casually say yeah just go through the portal. GG
Or is the category meant to include the Speed pool and Equal Offense Challenge in the respective Nine ball and Eight ball Categories for the warped tournament runs?
I was wondering if I can get clarification on the timing rules for the warp tournament categories. I made a post in the main game category but didn't get any response.
Basically from what I can see starting the timer from console on (for the warp cats) doesn't make sense as you are then including the speed pool in the actual run for Nine ball RTA and the equal defense challenge for Eight ball RTA
If you want to have the warped cat only running the actual tournament it makes more sense to start it on the welcome screen then your only timing the tournament RTA or is it meant to include the arm up game to get the warp?
The snes category of the game is the only cat that has actual defined timing rules defined but may not have taken into account warp rta.
Could I have an explanation or a possible resolve as Im trying to get runs done for all the games and tournaments.

Here is the other thread.
Thanks.
Can we split up the Nine ball and Eight ball tournament categories please.
So Eight ball Warp and Warpless & Nine ball Warp & Warpless
Thanks again.
Hey,
I was wondering if we could have some updated timing rules for all the categories which are similar. Mostly for the Tournament categories because you cant start the timer from a reset in the warped categories because you cant reset the console and keep the warped status. You have to cancel after 1 rack and immediately go into the tournament (Unless I'm Mistaken.
May I suggest starting all the tournament categories on the Welcome screen after selecting tournament, nine ball and what kind of break you would like. It's the same for both eight ball and nine ball. This is also where 3 ball starts too so keeps it nice and uniform.
I know there's next to no runs on the boards but I am going to try and do a run of each category so I will do my live timing from the Welcome screen for now and submit it.
Also the Nes category needs a Nine ball and Eight ball split like the others have and I don't see a split between warped and warpless in the Genesis version.
I will try and complete a warped and warpless run of nine ball and Eight ball for all 3 consoles (snes, genesis and nes)
Thanks for all the work you mods do.
Rack em Up!
Never mind the short categories. Come and join the big boy league and do the full game with one hand. Just be prepared to relearn the whole thing again. Would be great to have another runner on the board.
Hey Pancake. Recording with a phone is absolutely fine. I used to do it when I first started speedrunning a few months ago. Just make sure you can see the whole image and you have game sound and you have a timer somewhere. That's it.
If you want check out one of my first runs to get a general idea
Good Luck on the runs.
