Color Uncoordinated
by Joe McCrea (Logain)
They were playing a game of pool, more specifically a game of 9-ball. The friend ordered the balls by number order, but that is not the legal way to setup the balls in pool. In 9-ball, the 9 ball must go in the diamond’s center. The one ball goes in front and the rest of the balls are randomly arranged. Also, the color white is referencing the 9-ball which is actually white with a yellow stripe.
The layout shown has the connections…or balls that “touch” the other balls in number order from 1-9. In a 9-ball setup, Ball 1 would touch balls 2 & 3, which are blue and red. Ball 2 would touch balls 1,3,4 and 5, which are yellow, red, purple and orange. The rest are placed out similarly.
