I likme the Eggy Games and Tools very well. Why 4 Stars? If there’s no one in your own forum waiting to play a game of pool, it would be good to have the option of linking up with other forums having the same game installed. I know not everyone is a fan of that kind of integration! But if there’s no other player around, this otherwise great game just fizzles out. Otherwise, the support at Eggy is really excellent; I’ve always received quick answers and help so far. That’s why, in my view, the incident with NickH was just an unfortunate, isolated case.

Thanks for the feedback. I think the 4 star rating is fair, and the cross forum idea is genuinely useful. The way I picture it working is through a small API link between participating forums. If nobody is available on your own site, Pool could check the other forums that have opted in, find another waiting player, and connect both players into the same match while each person stays on their own forum.

It would be completely optional and each forum owner would have to enable it first. I am adding this to the September roadmap, with development potentially starting around mid September.
I went into the site to buy this. It seemed to go through without payment. I messaged to make the developer aware and how can I pay and explained the issue with the site not taking payment.

Within the hour of not making payment (I wasn't at the computer) I get threatening emails about "account enforcement" and strangely worded emails.

I can't comment on the plugin, looks like I'm banned from it for not being at my computer at 11pm and being too honest trying to pay.

Absolutely terrible customer service and tone to speak to somebody pointing out they weren't charged.

Thank you for your feedback. I do want to correct the record because the review does not reflect the full sequence of events.

The restriction was not applied because you reported the payment issue, because you were away from your computer, or because you were “too honest trying to pay”.

You contacted me about the unpaid order, requested the 30% discount code, received it, and were asked to let me know if you had any problems completing payment. A further reminder was then sent when payment remained outstanding.

Before enforcement, there was no indication that you needed more time, intended to pay the following morning, or were experiencing another payment problem. That explanation was only given after the account restriction had already been applied.

What also makes the “it was too late” explanation difficult to reconcile is that, after the restriction was applied, considerably more time was then spent responding to restriction emails and writing this review than completing a normal checkout would ordinarily have taken.

The restriction was therefore based on the unresolved payment and lack of communication after a clear resolution had been provided.

This would also have been your first Eggy licence, so no existing paid licences were revoked.

The outstanding payment has since been waived completely. The Eggy Pool licence remains unavailable and the account restriction remains in place.

You are entitled to disagree with how the situation was handled, but the suggestion that the restriction happened simply because you were not at your computer at 11 PM does not reflect what actually occurred.

As you also state that you cannot comment on Eggy Pool itself, it is important for anyone reading this review to understand that the rating relates to a payment and account dispute rather than the quality or functionality of the product.

This will be my final response on the matter.
This is a real fun add-on, well-built, and it offers something different for forum members. Looking forward to seeing where future development goes - hopefully leagues and tournaments featuring both humans and AI bots. Great work Eggy.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate the 5 star review!

There’s plenty more planned, including Pool Clubs, leaderboards, trophies and achievements, the Cue Shop, and more competitive features over time. All future Eggy Pool updates will be free for existing customers. Thanks again for the support!
