If im gonna post here i think i will need to know how to read this: START(
%AN3L3%ER6_1%IM3_1%P_7P5%Wb9T2%XC6R5%[D1D0%\M5K8%_D1Q8%`N2M1
%a^7P2
)END It just looks like a bunch of keys to me.

Highlight the code below and copy to your clipboard

START(
%AN7O5%BL7P8%CJ5O4%DL7N1%EM7P1%FK6P1%GK6N8%H\3I8%I L7O4%JK6M5
%KJ5P7%LJ5N2%MK6Q4%NJ5R0%OJ5M0%Pg9V9%U]4K6%Vf7U6%W[5D9%X[9H3
)END

go here:

http://endeavor.med.nyu.edu/~wei/pool/pooltable2.html (you will probably have to download "shockwave")

you should see a pool table

click the green button that says "paste"

answer yes to both queries

you should see a diagram of an 8-ball shot in the side

It means cutting the one ball into the corner pocket.

Usually you will see a URL that accompanies the string. You open that site and then cut and past the code from "START" to "END" after clicking on "paste". You need to have Shockwave installed and this might not work in Netscape but works fine on IE.

You can also save the appropriate files and have a shortcut to the program that will not require going to the website.

Also, to take Ken and Wally's posts a step further, you can diagram your OWN shots on the WEI table, and when you copy and paste the diagram to a post on the CCB, it will show up as the same kind of series of letters and numbers, automatically. Don't feel bad...lots of us here, who aren't computer whizzes (ME, for example), had to be taken by the hand and walked through the procedure! LOL
