My idea to kill yahoo pool aimers

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

I don’t care to play with aimers cause they suck but i am sick of accusing by using aimer by the players that they have no idea what is an aimer can do or do not (this is another blog post subject)

I decide to write this post after a loser accused me using an aimer and it do not allow him to pot their balls DUH!

There are some aimer software around makes the same job i am not sure but some of them might be copy of another brand so a Yahoo! games team member will determine all this shit aimer software around and will follow everyday if they have an update.Yahoo! game team will prepare a scanner which knows all the files aimers install the losers system.

You know when we install a software on to our computers it shows us their terms and ask us if we agree so if we agree it allow us to install and use it.

Well Yahoo! will ask us every time we login to a Yahoo! Pool room if we agree their software will scan our computers and decide , label us when we login to rooms.

Yahoo! gave All star members the option with a blue star their name so they can reward players who agreed to scanned their computers before entering a room like umm showing their names with green letters and may be a green star .You can show aimers names as red color and may be do not allow them to login to any room.

If this is possible software side by Yahoo! think about it, when you take a look at the players list at the room you will know who has an aimer . By the time people will stop to use aimers and we will back the good old days.

My basic idea about yahoo pool rating system

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

We have some breaking points at Yahoo! Pool rating system so you will become a

Purple box when you reach 1500 rating, orange box when you reach 1800 rating, red box when you reach 2100 rating. If you are an advanced player you know it is hard sometimes to find a high rating player with matches your rating so you need to walk around rooms and it may be boring.

Another thing is we saw many provious or 1200-1300 rating players in our intermediate and advanced rooms asking (begging) only for game. Most players will not play them cause their ratings do not match and many of them boot this low rate players from their tables just after they sit.

Ok ok here my idea If a player has a

1200-1499 rating they shouldn’t enter to beginner rooms
1500-1799 rating they shouldn’t enter to Intermediate rooms
below 2100 rating shouldn’t enter to Advanced rooms

So everyone easily find opponents with the same rating and intermediate and advanced rooms will not show full by this low rating players when you want to login. This is also good for international players which it may hard to find opponents cause different time zones.

My basic idea about yahoo pool bots and spammers

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

After Yahoo! FINALLY took a step about killing bots in our rooms (captcha) we have now less bots but we still have . We also have human spammers whom cant make it work that bot programs but still want to spam.

My idea is Yahoo! may stop new accounts (id’s) to able to use chat function on lobbies till they play 50 rated games. This will not stop them but will make their job harder. So no one will go and create an id in one minute and come back to spam.

It is like what most leagues has in their rules, they do not allow provisional players to join their leagues.

My Yahoo! Pool

Monday, May 19th, 2008

I wanted to share you my conditions, behaviours about Yahoo! Pool and yes i know i am strange :p

  • I don’t suddenly decide to play , if i would play i was decide from yesterday or noon of the day.
  • I never play during daylight since year 2002.
  • I never play (or can’t) without drink vodka. It helps me to enjoy the game and more important it helps me to go in to mood cause it is hard for me to still play after 150k games since year 2000. I drink one bottle of vodka at the day i play Yahoo! Pool. .

    I know many peoples do not believe me and says how can someone able to play and shoot like that with that much alcohol but i don’t have to convince anyone (second glass for now) :p

  • I mostly go play in social,beginner rooms with low rating players. This helps me to warm up and gives chance to low rating players to play with a high rating player to earn more points. If i am playing in a league at that time i do not need warm up i directly go to play .
  • I don’t watch television, download something , close all my messenger, emails, feed readers so nothing can disturb me.
  • If i really want to win a game i do not chat during the game.
  • I always listen music with my headphones while i play. I have a Pool folder in my music software (I tunes right now) and have many chosen songs in it i like and they keep me awake and enjoy playing. During playing i mostly listen rap, hip hop, rock.
  • I always play timer games cause i lost my mood without timer and feel cold to play. This is one reason why i do not join leagues. All my games are 5 to max 10 seconds games so i do not wait my opponents to go eat the dinner or whatever.
  • I always say hello or good luck before the game no matter if they are friend or stranger. Most people do not answer this but i actually test them and if they do not answer i just concentrate more to kick their azz . I hate and hit play again if they do not answer my hello or gl but say gg after the game .
  • I always prefer to not play regular 8 ball , i enjoy bank the 8, last pocket, red ball last, corners only etc which skills needed. or mixed all of them in the same game or bank all balls with that rules. Yes i enjoy to play em all with 5 to 10 second timer games :)
  • I do not play like a bitch (defensive) if i can see a ball i just shoot, no matter if able to pot but if my opponent do not deserve my fair play i can play defense like hell .I do not play directly defense i use rails or other balls like the real pool rules.
  • If my opponent is fair and yahood (Yahoo! pool glitches) i moslty give their turn by tapping the cue ball back especially on black ball. Rating is not everything, i only care if it is a fair game, if i enjoy to play with that opponent i don’t care losing.
  • I do not use ball in hand if i pot two kind of balls at break , it is a Yahoo! glitch and using it is not fair
  • I play Yahoo! Pool on my Win XP computer with Firefox browser. I play with 1680×1650 screen resolution on my 22 inch display
  • I deleted most of my ID’s and now i have around 50, i keep them all in Microsoft excel sheet in 2 different flash drives (one is back up) not on my computer.
  • I don’t play if i am angry about something cause i know can’t concatrate and will lose all my games then :p
  • I miss most of the easy shots but make hard ones

If i forgot to add anything i may add here later

Cheers

Yahoo! messed up with our accounts

Saturday, May 17th, 2008

In this month Yahoo changed some things at their portal and it effected some of us. I realize this when i check one of my dream Yahoo! ID and it said it is available . I don’t think the ID deleted / pruned cause i get junk emails everyday. When you create a new id no one knows it so they cant spam their junk.

Another one is when i try to login with one of my Yahoo! ID’s which i created January 2008 Yahoo! said that ID is not taken yet duh! i quickly recreated it. If it said wrong account name or password that would mean my account hacked by a cracker kiddo.

Since i have tons of Yahoo! ID i had to check em all by signing in one by one * damn it is boring* . I deleted many of my id’s at that moment and now i have like 35 (not any rare) . I use Microsoft excel to keep order them so i never forget. I never keep that file in my computers but in two custom flash disks which i never take out with me. This is cause if my computer hacked i will not lose any about Yahoo! and i have another back up on the other disk, and yes i know i am paranoid :p

If you have lots of Yahoo! ID’s like me and didn’t logged in for a long time i suggest you to check out em all cause you may lost your favourite ID
