DayZ survivor snooker

[Noble Savage 116]

As much as I love killing players purely for the joy of it I was quite keen to try out my friends new system, he calls it survivor snooker. If you are familiar with snooker skip the next bit, for those that don't know how the game works heres a very brief explanation.

 

There are 22 balls

 

Cue ball - white = 0 points

Reds (x 15) - 1 point

Yellow - 2 points

Green - 3 points

Brown - 4 points

Blue - 5 points

Pink - 6 points

Black - 7 points

 

The idea is to pot a red and then any colour, then another red followed by another colour (colours are replaced after potting if reds remain on the table) until you miss one and then your 'break' is over and your opponent has a go. The highest possible break is 147 which can be achieved by potting all the reds followed by blacks then clearing up the colours from yellow to black in sequence.

 

For the sake of survivor snooker the cue ball is your ammo and the colours relate to any item of outer clothing or backpack for example ...

Items that score =

Hats

Coats

Backpacks

Trousers

T-shirts

Shirts

Bandanas

 

Shoes, weapons and tools etc don't count.

 

my highest break so far is 26

 

Red baseball cap - 1

Brown trousers - 4

Red t-shirt - 1

Black backpack - 7

Red t-shirt - 1

Pink baseball cap - 6

Red bandana - 1

Blue shirt - 5

 

my break was ended by a sniper shot from the cherno apartments lol,

 

Every kill counts and you take the highest score available, the trickiest part is being patient, do you kill the next guy you see even though he's wearing all fucking green? or do you let him pass and hope some pink or black wearing target may be along soon? If by some freak occurrence the player is wearing nothing that scores it is classed as a miss and the break ends, same with your death.

 

It adds a neat twist to the already fun activity of killing players and I highly recommend you give it a go and post your highest breaks here.

 

Happy hunting and keep them cues well chalked ; )

 

edit - the Karmaterror rule - green = red, red = green. eg green is 1 point, red is 3. Increasing kills as well as speeding up break building.

exactly the same as snooker, unfortunately red is not as common as it could be so it can take a while to build up a decent break but it's doable. really annoying having to let a couple of blacks and pinks pass by while waiting for an elusive red to come along lol. Be a bit more interesting when more vehicles are introduced, they will definitely count so here's hoping we see red hatchbacks.

With green being the most common colour worn in charnarus and red being much more rare you could swap the values. Green becomes the 1 point red, and red becomes greens value and can only be potted after a green OFC :)

 that is a great idea, that way we wont need to miss out on many, if any kills lol, new rule change green is the new red and vice versa XD

Yeah it becomes a game of easy greens, just like snooker (easy reds) and then you have to decide do I kill this guy with the red drybag then go for another green, or wait for a guy with a black beanie and take the 7 points :D
