    But Doorgunner, that would apply to only half of the rake. Only half were stripped. So she will have to decide who is winning or has won. If the game is still in play she would need to add two players with sticks.
    Decisions, decisions, decisions. :whistle::whistle:

    Or you could just rack the balls and have them ready for a new game.

    When the game is over they mostly just leave the losers balls on the table. The next players would spend their quarter to get the rest back. Nice of you to show the colors. (y)

    If the loser had solid balls it would be much easier to paint.

    I see the pool balls now that you mentioned it Candy, they are really tiny. A ball is 2 3/16 inches in diameter so that makes them about 0.023 inches in diameter for HO scale, if my math is right. How do you paint the stripes on a ball that small?

    There are seven balls per side, "8" ball and cue. If the cue ball (white) is the one on the upper left corner and there's no black "8" ball then those remaining on the table would be the losers. Be it solid or striped.
    I'd go with solid as loser. It's easier. Six solids and a cue ball.

    Are there any English Mark Darts boards available at that bar? Then you would be covering all my evening enjoyments of my youth. ;)

    Maybe they are playing 9 ball? Only the 9 is striped.

    Candy,
    Will you be decorating your bowling ally for Halloween? A lot are up to it around here lately. Even horror houses. :confused::confused:
