Apologies if this is asked a lot, I tried searching but didn't get great/relevant results. If you can find an old post, please link it!

We play league out of a pool bar where we are friendly with the owners. The person who owns the tables and the bar owners are willing to pay more for better cloth when we get it refelted, but unfortunately there are the normal drunks on Friday/Saturday who play and are sometimes not gentle with the tables.

What type of cloth would be the best mix between performance and durability for a pool table in a bar?

Thanks

Don't need to upvote, I'll delete once I get an answer.

I see the crowd funding for more player slots message.

I have leftover coins.

How do I donate coins? I don't see a button to do so. I'm logged in.

Thanks.

I'm competent enough on Front line to not get flamed. I was even instrumental in winning one game when I saw my front line counterpart pull his entire army to help out mid lane and I just pushed through the gap he left and destroyed 1.5 bases with T1 units. Great feeling.

Was even called a smurf! Not because I'm good, but because I wasn't completely incompetent as a 1 chevron player. I saw another 1 chevron build 4 bot labs and 30+ constructions turrets without the resources to run 1 bot lab.

However, I had one game where someone took sea and made 0 units to the opponent's 20+ units and it quickly cost us the game. And then another game where someone took a back Tech spot and did not

I see a lot of people complaining about noobs playing multiplayer, but I don't see anyone giving advice on when you're non-noob enough to give it a stab.

When you've completed all the scenarios?

When you've beaten the BarbAI 1v1? 1v2? 1v3?

When hurtful words no longer make you cry?

Sincerely,

A noob.

I've been playing the same build for the last ... too many leagues.

I want to switch it up and set a goal to farm the Feared this league as I've done most other bosses / league mechanics.

I make most of my div from crafting / flipping, so it doesn't have to be a strong league starter/mapper.

Anything that can do it comfortably on a 40-100+ div budget?

For a long time this subreddit was dead besides spammers so I had switched it to Approved Submitters only.

There's been a recent surge of people asking to become Approved Submitters, so I've reopened it to allow everyone to post.

Please report any spam posts or any posts that are not about Greenfield MA!

Thanks

I'm helping organize a bachelor party and everyone is a pool player. We're going to go to MGM, but want to hit a bar and play some pool in the area beforehand.

What's the best pool bar in Springfield or surrounding areas with at least 2 tables (3 or more preferred).

We're starting early so Ivory Billiards in Holyoke won't be open.

I was playing 8 ball on Friday night with several good to great players (several 500+ Fargo with one over 600). I had broke and ran 6 balls, missed my last solid (but got perfect shape on the 8, of course) to blow the B&R, left my last ball about 8-9 inches diagonally from the corner pocket I missed putting it in.

My opponent had several easy shots available, but played a really great safety that broke up his two problem balls while leaving the cue ball close to the 8 ball blocking any shot towards my ball.

Due to all their balls on the table I had zero one rail kick shots, I could possibly do a two rail kick for a hit but zero chance of making it from that angle. Even if I managed to

I had a 6 month policy paid in full through 11/6. I got my renewal notice and saw a huge rate increase (from ~$290 to ~$750) for the renewal.

Apparently I lost my 'good driver' discount because I was in an accident about a year ago when another driver hit me while I was pulling into a parking spot. The other driver was issued a citation and their insurance company paid for everything, Geico paid $0.

I shopped around and went with Progressive as it was $300 for the same coverage with lower deductibles.

On 10/24 I signed up for Progressive for when my Geico policy ends. At this point I know for a fact there was a $0 balance on my account.

Today, 11/2, 4 days before my policy ends

Mostly a happy brag post as I don't have many people to share this with.

I ran about 1k Canyons doing sanctums before. Best sanctified relic I got was 11% attack speed.

I had been doing the infinite winged sextant strategy for awhile but it wasn't conducive to farming sanctums quickly. Switched back to harvest / delirium stream of consciousness strategy rushing through Canyons for faster sanctums.

Only ~20 maps later this dropped from Lycia bringing my Uber dps to 99 million, 114 million with uber flask setup. Surprisingly tanky plus everything is chilled / frozen / dead.

Budget was probably around 150 divines + sanctified relic. The relic almost doubled my dps.

My plan was to league start EA ballista.

Leveled using spark + orb of storms and loved it. Super smooth leveling experience. And enjoyed spark.

Swapped over to EA ballista in maps and realized I'm an idiot. I don't like delayed damage mechanics like poison. Don't know why I thought I'd enjoy ballista -> fuses -> 1 second delay -> ignite.

Don't get me wrong, incredibly strong. Once the ignites kicked in, boom. I just don't enjoy the playstyle. Tried to tough it out and just use it as a starter for currency but honestly couldn't stand it and it was either respec to something I'd enjoy or quit.

Unfortunately I'm a witch. And had already specced into Elementalist / shaper
