9-Ball Pool, done properly.
Every result scored at the table. A rating that follows you from one tournament to the next. A board your regulars argue about.
Every result, counted.
Every player gets their own numbers, from every match they play. Here's what we keep, and what it tells you.
Your points
One number that moves with every result, and follows you to the next tournament.
Your record
Wins, losses, and how many frames you took in each.
Form
Your last five results, at a glance.
Head-to-head
Your record against everyone you've played, and who you owe one.
Nobody picks their own nickname.
Do something at the table and the stats give you one. Every series hands out awards too. Some you want. Some you really don't.
