The game froze after I attempted a strong backspin shot.

A new version has been published which hopefully fixes the freeze when using backspin.

OP
Can't pull back the cue enough to get a faster shot like you can in 8ball

Posted this in another blackball topic, didn't realise there was a dedicated bug reporting one though :p

The cue ball spin indicator seems to appears for half a second or so at the start of your shot.

This is a strange one but just now I won a second frame against a player (2-0 to me :D) but it seemed to automatically start the next frame. We didn't have a number of frames set for the match, it didn't even give me chance to leave to get to the lobby. Is there a keyboard shortcut you've put in place that starts a new game? The reason being the new frame started when I was typing to someone in the chat window. 
Dunno if it's bug, but when u break at the beginning of the game and u pot red, u can still choose red or yellow

Rule H.2.b

"If one or more Colours are potted on the break the player then has a right and obligation to verbally advise the referee of a choice of Colour before proceeding."

Also, H.2.c.ii

"If the player nominates a Colour that was not potted on the break, to be on that Colour, the player must pot a ball of that Colour on the next shot."

Just played a bo3 vs Rulez and won 2-1, when i left game i was 5 points down. When i checked info it said it was only 1-1, I beat him 2-1 and it says 1-1? sort it out
Ich wurde von Jemandem gefordert, der mir Profiregeln spielt. Dass er mit diesen Regeln spielt, wurde mir allerdings erst während des Spieles Klar.
Die Einstellungen des Spielers sollten auch während der Spielanfrage gezeigt werden.
not as much of a bug but.. seeing as we are now playing by the world rules cam we not have the full set ? i mean when you break and pot you should still be given the choice of a free table and to take either reds or yellows. Also how about bringing in the total snooker rule ? by where when you are snookered and cannot see the finest cut on both sides of one of your balls you only have to have the cue ball come into contact with your object ball rather than also having to come in contact with a cushion after.
If you break and pot, you do have the option to choose color. Look for the "switch" button upper left corner.

OP
Regarding total snooker, it was planned, but had been left out for some reason. Maybe it will be added a later time.

But "Total Snooker" has a different definition than a simple snooker: "A player is in a Total Snooker when it is impossible to play any part of any of the player's own Colour by way of a "straight line" shot."

this is foul-snooker after a foul, but cannot  be regarded as a total snooker.

thx

OP
in my experiance this would be considered a snooker as u cant hit both sides of the ball you're aiming for so the white ball would be allowed to be moved to the balk line or free ball (hit oponents ball or black).
The game is a bit jumpy for me dont no if thats to do with the server? because 8 9 snooker is very smooth.
i cant seem to chat in the games, click the bar and try to type but nothing happens.
Hi, i would like to say that after the games i've played, the screen became black, i don't know why.. so.

Thank you.

So your Java crashed. 
Sometimes it happens to me too.

Tommy
Ok noticed a couple this morning, Don't know if im missing something in the rules or not here but opponant broke and potted white yet I was only given one shot from middle of baulk line, No option to move and no 2 shots, surely this cant be right?. Also When given 2 shots but snookered on your own balls 2 bars comes along the bottom the right says move I believe the left should Say Nominate as in to nominate one of opponants balls to hit but it doesnt say anything on it so was a bit weary to press.
Potting the white on the break does not give two visits to the opponent, unless the breaker also fails to drive at least 4 balls to the cushion

The other thing you mention is indeed a bug, the empty button is the "nominate" button, you can use it, it works.
The caption on it will be fixed soon.

Thx
