Billiards anyone?

[tony]

I have found this wonderful game of Billiards, works on all OS as far as I can see.

I am not a game person, but this is wonderful. You don't need a joy stick, just read the instruction and away you go. Once you have the hang of it its quite addictive. Maybe one for Gizmo's free posts as this is totally enjoyable.

Hi Tony, good game. It would be good if you can start an article on this in the Game category.

Mmm, do I want to do anymore editorials? I have 5 already and as Gizmo knows due to the amount of morphine I take it takes a lot to do these now. So you may be lucky, but I hope someone will take the reins on this one.

Great work, Tony. I think my plate is quite full. Maybe someone can create a stub for interested editors to take on

Dam it, I don't know why but I did the deed and wrote the editorial. Must be mad I know, but it gives Gizmo one to email to everyone.

Tony, I changed the page address to a slightly better arrangement, hope this is OK?

techsupportalert.com/best-free-billiards-and-pool-game.htm


Also I put a note at the top saying suggestions welcome - opened the comments - said you were looking for someone to take over the page. OK I hope?

For some reason it doesn't come up as being in the Games category, even though it seems to have been correctly placed there.

Tony, looks like the text could have been pasted in from Open Office, it's jammed up the formatting due to loads of code being brought over from the word processor. Needs to be pasted in from a plain text editor, ideally.

It's hard to explain how to check if your editor is a plain text one or not, I don't know the answer to that. But the result is easy to see in the HTML if you know that stuff, there's tons of junk code in there.

Kudos to Tony. Yes, that's why I think you're able to. It has enriched the Game section. Earlier I had the same thought that I would have been mad to write those articles, but it ended up with quite a few done!

I agree with Chris that using a plain text editor will be better. The font in the article is rather small. I hope I could do a clean-up of unnecessary font codes if allowed to.

Yes, I really agree - a great cue off to a great new category. And the page'll surely grow. Hopefully, with the help of user input.

Personally, I think the "in development" rider is transparent and gives visitors the right message ("what you read is what you get")

Thanks Jojo for introducing me to the fascination of Reversi. Seriously! It's a great game and I might never have gone there without your article. Looking forward to learning your Chinese chess. I love the bit about the elephants...

BTW, did anyone see the Secret Life off Elephants series on the BBC? To me, they seemed more 'human' than many of us humans.
