@Liquidream@mastodon.gamedev.placeI recently started getting back into #8Ball #Pool 
Last Sunday, I failed to complete this drill even once.
Today... I completed it 3x times! 
(This was my *first* one, can you tell?! 
)
I kept trying to get a "clean" take, but never had 100% control of the cue ball.
Still, I'm chalking* this up as a "progress" win for me 
*(pun intended 
)
@Liquidream It seems like a good exercise. I myself played a game of pool last weekend for the first time in about 20 years. And I won. I am very sure it was luck, but I won and I will not play pool for another 20 years to keep my streak 
.
@donnyglover Nice one, congrats! 
@Liquidream Wow. I think we may finish faster by asking "What can you NOT do, Paul?"
@macario_moreno LOL - you are too kind, as always 
Well, seeing as this recording was only 1 of *many* failed attempts 
I think it's still safe to say what I still can NOT do, is play pool consistently
(But this was by New Years' Resolution to myself to try to address that )
@Liquidream Nicely done. Table at home when? 
@Felice Thanking you
Well, if we had room for one - I'd have got one several years ago.
I'm still working on the "pool/dining combo table" idea with the Mrs. 
(But unsurprisingly, she keeps saying words like "How much?!" and "No!" )
@Liquidream Do you have a basement? An attic? Or a garage? Surely you don't actually need to store things or keep your car under cover. Priorities!
Also, here's a thought: Get her interested in playing pool with you as a social activity. Just be careful not to be too overbearing with tips and such. I tried that once and it went the opposite direction I wanted it to, sigh. My urge to be helpful is sometimes a curse.
