RUN THE TABLE

This manual is the basic concept of combining Eidetic Imagery, its’

interruption within any given controlled setting, and measuring proportional

associations. The application used in this manual is the game of pool.

THE LAST PORTION OF THIS MANUAL SHARES A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF

SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS. THE GAME OF

POOL IS THE CHOSEN APPLICATION FOR ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES. IN THIS

APPLICATION THERE ARE VERY FEW FIXED CHOICES FOR EACH SETTING. LATER

VERSIONS WILL HAVE A MUCH MORE VARIED LIST FOR EACH GENRE. FOR

EXAMPLE FOR CHILDREN’S USAGE THERE MAY BE A FROG POND FELT AND

FISH AND FROGS HIDING IN THE POND. SOMEONE ELSE MAY WANT AN INTER-

GALACTIC QUEST WITH STARS/SPACE FELT AND ALIEN SPACE SHIPS TO

REMEMBER. RIGHT NOW THESE EXAMPLES SHOW ONLY FIXED IMAGES TO BE

CHOSEN. LATER VERSIONS WILL HAVE THE OPTION OF VIDEO FELT. A

DIFFERENCE WOULD BE A FROG POND WITH FISH SWIMMING AROUND AND

REMEMBERING WHERE THE FROGS AND CRABS ARE. STILL LATER VERSIONS

WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO UPLOAD YOUR OWN IMAGE AS A FIXED FELT OR

UPLOAD YOUR OWN VIDEO FOR A VIDEO FELT. THE FELT COULD BE LAST

CHRISTMAS WITH THE FAMILY AND NEEDING TO REMEMBER DIFFERENT

LOOKING CHRISTMAS PRESENTS WHILE THAT IS PLAYING IN THE

BACKGROUND. THE SUGGESTIONS ARE ONLY LIMITED BY IMAGINATION.


4

TO PLAY:

VARIOUS RACKS CAN BE USED FOR VARIOUS GAMES – 3 BALL, 7 BALL, 8 BALL,

9 BALL, AND CRIBBAGE POOL. EVERY GAME HAS SAME BASIC RULES OF

SCATTERING THE BALLS, STUDYING WHERE THEY ARE, AND CORRECTLY

RECALLING THEM IN VARIOUS MANNERS.

THE DIFFICULTY FACTOR LIES IN HOW MANY BALLS YOU USE, HOW TO RECALL

THEM, I.E. SOLIDS/STRIPES OR IN ORDER, AND IN WHAT IS CHOSEN TO BE

SEEN AS A PATTERN ONCE THE BALLS HAVE CHANGED.


5

THE FREE APPLICATION WILL HAVE COPPER CUES PROVIDED THE SAME TO

ALL. BRONZE CUES, SILVER CUES, GOLD CUES, PLATINUM CUES, AND

DIAMOND CUES CAN BE EARNED. A PLAYER MAY ALSO PLAY THE GAME ON

TOUCH SCREEN AND HAVE HIS OR HER CUE SHOWING WITH AVATAR. EACH

TEAM COULD MONOGRAM CUES FOR THEMSELVES.

(PROGRAMMING NOTE: SHOT CLOCK TO BE SEET AT 3 SECONDS WITH 5

SECONDS BEFORE THE NEXT SHOT MAY BE CALLED AND SHOT CLOCK STARTS

AGAIN. IN HARDER GAMES LIKE CRIBBAGE PERHAPS A 5 SECOND SHOT CLOCK

WITH 10 SECONDS IN BETWEEN SHOTS.)


6

(PLEASE NOTE THE WHITE BOXES AROUND BALLS ARE TO BE REMOVED –

ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY):

THIS ILLUSTRATION SHOWS A BASIC GRAPH FORMAT TO FOLLOW. EACH BALL

IS SET WITHIN A GIVEN FRAME. THESE POSITIONS COULD VARY SLIGHTLY

WITHIN EACH FRAME OR REMAIN A CONSTANT PATTERN. THIS VIEW IS KEPT

TO STUDY FOR 10, 20, OR 30 SECONDS DEPENDING ON THE LEVEL OF PLAY. AT

THE END OF THE COUNTDOWN TIMER THE BALLS ALL CONVERT INTO A

CHOSEN PATTERN – GRAPH, CIRCULAR, OR BOXES.

THE APPEARANCE OF THE BALLS AFTER CHANGING CAN ALSO BE SET WITH

DIFFERING KINDS – SHAPE, SIZE, AND COLOR OR MARKINGS. EXAMPLES OF

THESE WILL FOLLOW.

THE FOLLOWING ILLUSTRATION IS A BASIC GRAPHING FORMAT WITH A

PATTERN OF SOLID BLACK BALLS:


12

THE FORMATTING OF THE SPREAD OF THE BALLS COULD BE STRUCTURED

EVERY TIME AS SHOWN ABOVE OR RANDOMLY LIKE BELOW. THE BALLS THEN

REMAIN VISIBLE FOR A CHOSEN TIME AND CHANGE INTO THE PATTERN SET

BY PLAYERS.


13

EXAMPLE OF RANDOM FORMATTING USING A ONE- SIDE-WHITE-AND-ONE-

SIDE-BLACK PATTERN:

A SLIGHT CHANGE WOULD PRODUCE THE FOLLOWING RESULT:

YET ANOTHER SLIGHT CHANGE WOULD PRODUCE THE FOLLOWING RESULT:


16

PLAYERS CAN CHOOSE DIFFERING LEVELS OF DIFFICULTY BY CHOOSING

BETWEEN 3 BALL, 7 BALL, 8 BALL, 9 BALL, ROTATION, OR CRIBBAGE POOL.

AVATARS COULD BE USED: CREATE YOUR OWN CHARACTER LOOK WITH YOUR

PARTICULAR LEVEL OF CUE STICK TO USE.

THE ORIGINAL GAME IS FREE AND WILL ALLOW A PERSON TO PRACTICE

ALONE, PLAY AGAINST ANOTHER, AND EVEN PLAY PARTNERS ON THEIR OWN.

IF A PERSON WANTS TO JOIN A POOL HALL AND COMPETE THEN EVERYONE

BEGINS AT SAME LEVEL OF POINTS AND CUE.

A PERSON MAY PURCHASE MORE POINTS IF THEY LOSE ALL OF THEIR OWN. A

PERSON MUST ACQUIRE A PARTICULAR NUMBER OF POINTS TO GET TO THE

NEXT LEVEL OF A POOL CUE.

VARIOUS LEVELS OF POINTS SUCH AS COPPER, BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD,

PLATINUM AND DIAMOND POINTS ARE OBTAINED. ANYONE MAY CHALLENGE

ANYONE IN ORDER TO WIN MORE POINTS.

EXAMPLE:

A PLAYER BUYS 10 COPPER POINTS FOR ONE PENNY PER POINT TO BEGIN. A

PLAYER THEN PLAYS ANOTHER FOR 1 POINT EACH. THE WINNER OF THE

GAME RECEIVES THE 2 POINT POT. THE LEVEL OF PROGRESSION IS

CALCULATED IN THIS MANNER: 1 WIN = 1 COPPER POINT; 50 COPPER POINTS

= 1 SILVER POINT; 50 SILVER POINTS = 1 GOLD POINT; 50 GOLD POINTS = 1

PLATINUM POINT; AND 50 PLATINUM POINTS = 1 DIAMOND POINT. EACH

PERSON RECEIVES A NEXT LEVEL CUE AS THEY MOVE UP FROM WOOD CUE;

COPPER CUE, SILVER CUE, GOLD CUE, PLATINUM CUE, AND DIAMOND CUE.

CLUB BENEFITS:

COPPER CUE = RECEIVE 5 EXTRA COPPER POINTS SIGNING BONUS

SILVER CUE = RECEIVE 50 EXTRA SIILVER POINTS SIGNING BONUS

GOLD CUE = RECEIVE 500 EXTRA GOLD POINTS SIGNING BONUS


17

PLATINUM CUE = RECEIVE 5000 EXTRA PLATINUM POINTS SIGNING BONUS

DIAMOND CUE = WILL VARY WITH DIFFICULTY OF GAME ALSO (coming)

PLAYERS WHO HAVE PROGRESSED TO A GOLD CUE COULD PLAY ONE

ANOTHER IN TOURNAMENTS; WOOD CUES IN TOURNAMENTS, ETC. A POOL

TEAM WOULD CONSIST OF 3 – 5 PLAYERS IN THE POOL HALL WHO AGREE TO

TEAM UP; THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE TEAMS IN ANY POOL HALL.

TEAM COMPETITION IN LEAGUES FOLLOW THE SAME BRACKET PATTERNS OF

APA POOL LEAGUE TO DETERMINE CHAMPIONS. SEE ILLUSTRATION BELOW.

(Bracket retrieved on Jan. 4, 2014, from http://www.printyourbrackets.com/poolbrackets.html)

THIS BRACKET COULD BE USED FOR TEAM COMPETITION WITHIN LEAGUES.

THE SAME BRACKET COULD ALSO BE USED FOR LEAGUE TOURNAMENTS

WITHIN DIVISIONS AND CONFERENCES.

THERE WOULD BE “POOL HALLS” WHERE PEOPLE COULD MEET TO PLAY.

THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE TABLES IN EACH POOL HALL; WOOD TABLES,

COPPER TABLES, SILVER TABLES, GOLD TABLES, PLATINUM TABLES, AND

DIAMOND TABLES. ONLY THE PLAYERS WITH A CORRESPONDING CUE LEVELS

MAY PLAY ON ANY GIVEN TABLE.

http://www.printyourbrackets.com/poolbrackets.html


18

EACH POOL HALL COULD JOIN A POOL LEAGUE JUST LIKE THE REAL GAME.

PLEASE SEE GAME RULES.

TEAMS CONSIST OF AT LEAST 3 PLAYERS AND NO MORE THAN 5. WHEN

THERE ARE 6 PLAYERS THEY SPLIT INTO 2 TEAMS OF 3. THESE VARIOUS TEAMS

IN EACH POOL HALL CAN THEN COMPETE WITH OTHER POOL HALL TEAMS

WITHIN THEIR OWN CUE LEVEL.

LEAGUES ARE COMPRISED IN THE SAME MANNER. THERE MUST BE AT LEAST

3 TEAMS TO FORM A LEAGUE BUT NO MORE THAN 5 TEAMS. 6 TEAMS WILL

DIVIDE INTO TWO LEAGUES OF 3 TEAMS EACH. THIS WILL BUILD UP THE

LOWER BRACKETS OF THE COMPETITION.

TOURNAMENTS CULMINATE IN AN ANNUAL COMPETITION JUST LIKE THE

REAL POOL LEAGUES. EACH PLAYER CAN BUILD HIS OR HER OWN TEAM WITH

PEOPLE WHO ARE AGREED TO DO SO AT ANY PARTICULAR LEVEL TO FORM

THE BEST TEAM POSSIBLE. JOINING ANY TEAM WORKS THE SAME AS REAL

TEAMS; TRYOUTS AND VOTING OF THE PLAYERS. THERE MAY ALSO BE

SUBSITUTES IF SOMEONE CANNOT PLAY ANY PARTICULAR TEAM

COMPETITION.

EACH TEAM COULD THEN JOIN A LEAGUE AND COMPETE FOR LEAGUE

CHAMP. LEAGUE CHAMPS THEN COMPETE AND ONE WILL BECOME NATIONAL

CHAMPION EACH YEAR.

THIS MAY BE DONE ON AN INDIVIDUAL LEVEL OR TEAM LEVEL OF

COMPETITION AS THE REAL TOURNAMENTS DO.

THE LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY ON ANY TABLE ARISES FROM INTERFERENCE, THE

VARIOUS COLORS AND PATTERNS OF FELT. JUST LIKE REAL POOL YOU MUST

BE ABLE TO MAKE THE EASY SHOTS UNDER PRESSURE.

SETTINGS FOR GAME:

GENERAL SETTINGS FOR ALL GAMES:

LAGGING FOR BREAK

THE PLAYER TO SHOOT FIRST IS CHOSEN BY CHOOSING BALLS FROM A

RANDOM PLACEMENT OF DISGUISED BALLS. PLAYERS WILL EACH “SHOOT” A

BALL; THE PLAYER TO FIND THE CUE BALL IN THE FEWEST MOVES WILL BEGIN

THE GAME, AKA BREAK. IF THERE IS A TIE THE PROCESS IS REPEATED.

26

THE SPREAD OF THE BALLS AND LAY OF THE TABLE COULD APPEAR LIKE THE

FOLLOWING SAMPLE: THIS WILL REMAIN STATIC FOR A PRESET TIME.

THE FOLLOWING ILLUSTRATION COULD BE A BEGINNING RANDOM FORMAT

AFTER THE STUDY PERIOD OF A 3 BALL GAME ON A VARIANT FELT:

(NOTE: IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT SCIENCE HAS SHOWN THAT A VERY

FAST FLASH OF BRIGHT LIGHT BEWTEEN THIS SCREEN AND THE SCREEN TO

CHOOSE THE BALLS WILL INTERRUPT THE SHORT TERM MEMORY PATTERN OF

VARIOUS GROUPS. A STROBE IS SHOWN TO INTERRUPT FOR A LONGER

PERIOD. THIS FLASH COULD BE APPLIED PRIOR TO VIEWING THE SCREEN


27

BELOW. THIS WOULD MAKE AN INTERESTING GAME ALSO – SET THE FLASH

KNOWING FULL WELL WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO TO YOU. THIS COULD

ALSO BE USED AND SPONSORED BY A UNIVERISTY PHYSCHOLOGY SCHOOL TO

RETRIEVE MASS DATA ON THE STUDY OF THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF SHORT

TERM MEMORY INTERRUPTION.


28

FOR THE PURPOSES OF ILLUSTRATION AT THIS POINT THE THIRD FELT FROM 3

BALL IS SHOWN:

IT IS AT THIS POINT THE BEGINNING PLAYER WILL NEED TO CHOOSE THE

CORRECT BALL, IN THIS CASE THE ONE BALL. HE OR SHE MUST THEN CHOOSE

THE TWO BALL AND THREE BALL IN ORDER WITHOUT SCRATCHING OR

SHOOTING THE WRONG BALL.

THE PLAYER TO WIN THE FIRST 3 OF 5 GAMES IS THE WINNER OF THE MATCH.

THE OPPOSING PLAYER WILL THEN BEGIN THE NEXT GAME OF THE SECOND

MATCH.


29

THE GAME IS WON WHEN A PLAYER CORRECTLY SELECTS THE LAST BALL, THE

3 BALL, AND LEAVES THE CUE BALL ON THE TABLE. A SCRATCH ON THE 3 BALL

IS A LOSS.

8 BALL RACK & RULES

NOW WE ARE READY TO BEGIN A STANDARD GAME OF 8 BALL WITH A

RANDOM STARTING FORMAT AND OUR CHOICE OF PATTERNS AND SHAPES

TO VIEW:

THIS NEXT ILLUSTRATION SHOWS THE TABLE AFTER THE BREAK AND DURING

THE STUDY PERIOD. THIS TABLE IS GREEN FELT. THIS WILL REMAIN VISIBLE

FOR 30 SECONDS DEFAULT BEFORE CHANGING BALLS AND/OR FELT.


51

THIS NEXT ILLUSTRATION SHOWS THE TABLE AFTER THE BREAK AND STUDY

PERIOD. THIS TABLE IS GREEN FELT, ½ & ½ PATTERNS, SAME SIZE AND A

RANDOM FORMAT, AKA THE LAY OF THE TABLE.


52

THE FOLLOWING ILLUSTRATION DEPICTS A VARIANT FELT AND PATTERN FOR

THIS SAME GAME:

AT THIS POINT THE SHOT CLOCK BEGINS. EACH PLAYER MUST CHOOSE, I.E.

SHOOT A BALL, WITHIN 5 SECONDS OR FORFEITS HIS OR HER TURN. AS EACH

BALL IS CHOSEN IT WILL BE REVEALED. IF THE PLAYER IS CORRECT THERE WILL

BE THE SOUND OF A BALL BEING POCKETED OR A POP-UP SAYING “GOOD

SHOT!” AFTER 2 SECONDS THE BALL WILL DISAPPEAR FROM THE TABLE. IF THE

PLAYER CHOOSES INCORRECTLY THERE WILL BE A POP-UP PROCLAIMING A

FOUL. THE BALL WILL THEN REVERT TO BEING COVERED UP AND THE PLAYERS

WILL NEED TO REMEMBER WHAT THAT BALL WAS. IN THE EVENT THE PLAYER


53

CHOOSES THE CUE BALL A POP-UP WILL APPEAR PROCLAIMING THE PLAYER

HAS SCRATCHED. IT WILL THEN BECOME THE OTHER PLAYER’S SHOT.

THE PLAYER WHO SHOOTS FIRST MUST SHOOT A SOLID OR A STRIPE TO

CONTINUE TO SHOOT; THESE BECOME THEIR BALLS; THE OTHERS BELONG TO

THE OTHER PLAYER. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO SHOOT THEIR OWN BALLS

WITHOUT POCKETING THE 8 OR SCRATCHING OR COMMTITTING A FOUL. AS

LONG AS A PLAYER SHOOTS ACCURATELY WITHIN THE ALLOTED TIME THEY

CONTINUE TO SHOOT. THEY CAN RUN THE TABLE AND WIN THE GAME.

WHEN THERE ARE TWO BALLS LEFT, THE 8 BALL AND THE CUE BALL, THE

PLAYER MUST POCKET THE 8 BALL FIRST. IF THE CUE BALL IS POCKETED FIRST

THIS IS A SCRATCH ON THE 8 AND YOU LOSE THE GAME. THE GAME IS OVER

WHEN THE CUE BALL IS THE ONLY BALL LEFT ON THE TABLE. A PLAYER LOSES

IF THEY “SCRATCH” ON THE 8 BALL BY POCKETING THE CUE BALL INSTEAD OF

THE 8 BALL FIRST.



PLAYER BY CALLING A “SAFETY.” THIS IS DONE IN HOPES THAT YOUR


SOME GAMES MAY LAST A WHILE DEPENDING ON THE PLAYERS, AGAIN JUST

LIKE IN REAL POOL, OR SOMEONE GOOD COULD RUN THE TABLE.

CRIBBAGE POOL RACK AND RULES:


Illustration purposes only...)

CRIBBAGE IS A COMBINATION OF TWO BALLS THAT EQUAL A TOTAL OF 15

POINTS; I.E. 14-1, 13-2, 7-8, 5-10, ETC. TO WIN THE GAME A PLAYER MJST BE

FIRST TO EARN 5 CRIBBAGE OF 8 IN EACH RACK BEFORE HIS OR HER

OPPONENT. THERE ARE 7 CRIBBAGE PAIRS: (1-14, 2-13, 3-12, 4-11, 5-10, 6-9,

& 7-8). AFTER ALL THE CRIBBAGE PAIRS HAVE BEEN POCKETED, THE 15 BALL IS

CRIBBAGE BY ITSELF. THE 15 BALL MUST BE THE LAST CRIBBAGE PLAYED, AND


73

ONLY IF NECESSARY FOR THE 5 CRIBBAGE WIN. AS SOON AS A PLAYER HAS 5

CRIBBAGE, THE GAME IS OVER.

SHOWN BELOW IS THE LAY OF THE TABLE AFTER THE OPENING BREAK:


74

THE NEXT ILLUSTRATION IS THE SAME TABLE AFTER THE STUDY PERIOD IS

OVER:


75

ANOTHER POSSIBLE SETTING WOULD ALLOW THE TABLE TO HAVE THIS

APPEARANCE INSTEAD:

THE FIRST PLAYER WILL SHOOT A BALL AND IT WILL BE REVEALED. THE SAME

PLAYER SHOOTS ANOTHER BALL AND IT WILL BE REVEALED. IF THE TWO BALLS

ADD UP TO 15, CRIBBAGE, THEN IT IS ANNOUNCED AND THE PLAYER RECEIVES

1 CRIBBAGE. HE OR SHE WILL THEN CONTINUE TO SHOOT. IF THE TWO BALLS

DO NOT MAKE CRIBBAGE THEY WILL BE TURNED BACK OVER AND HIDDEN. IF

THE CUE BALL IS CHOSEN AS EITHER BALL IT IS A SCRATCH AND THE BALLS ARE

TURNED BACK OVER. EACH PLAYER THEN MUST REMEMBER WHAT BALLS ARE

WHERE IN ORDER TO WIN. IF THE 15 BALL IS CHOSEN BEFORE IT IS THE LAST


76

BALL, EXCEPTING THE CUE BALL, IT WILL BE TURNED BACK OVER AND THEY

WILL LOSE THEIR TURN.

WHEN THE ONLY TWO BALLS ON THE TABLE ARE THE CUE BALL AND THE 15

BALL, THE PLAYER MUST CORRECTLY SHOOT THE 15 BALL ON THEIR FIRST

SHOT. IF THEY SHOT THE CUE BALL FIRST THEY LOSE THE GAME.
