In july 2005 I invented a term for the rising fashion of smiley Goths who dance on E to Dark Trance and EBM and such in a sort of rave 'light sticks and beats' stylee, as it had no name at the time and I got into it, I and my friends described it as Cyber Goth in order to be able to talk about it, the above is a video I made of my fave Cyber Goth scene in Leeds in 2007.
I also posted it onto Urban Dictionary: www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cyber+goth (along with the term Cyber Twat which described friends of ours who went so Cyber Goth they got annoying!)
This term has since been adopted by the world in general to refer to this style, yet my video now gets regular comments that it's 'Not Cyber Goth enough' and my original Urban Dictionary definition has been voted down for a more preferable description which greatly amuses me!
There's no way of knowing if it was also 'invented' separately but I like to think it was my sole invention.
BTW, I also invented the term Car Crash TV in 2006 and posted that on Urban Dictionary www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=car+crash+TV and oddly my definition is still the only one on there, and I now regularly see it used most often on Talking Heads Countdown shows such as 100 Worst Moments Of The '90s and such.
I tried lots of other invented definitions of terms and words that actually didn't exist but these two were my most successful before I lost interest.
Try it yourself, it's fun inventing language!
*edit* yup pretty conclusively proven that these were around long before
i re-'invented' them off my own head, but such is language, and much as
I'm sure nobody will believe me, happy to be proven wrong that
i wasn't the first ever usage, but I just wanted to know and was too lazy to do the research, but I may have still helped popularise them, and I was still the first on Urban Dictionary with both of them. Cheers tho.

it didn't exist in the mid '90s. I recall coming across something sorta similar in about 2000 (Goth looking guys dancing at Rave venues) but I wasn't aware of any kind of really established Cyber Goth scene until at least 2003. All the bands who create the music seemed to start around about the millenium, so it's rather hard to imagine there was a scene before that!

If you're playing 8-ball (English pool), then you'll get a foul if you pot the wrong ball first. You have to pot your own balls.

If you pot a red and a yellow in one shot whilst it's an open table, it should still be an open table.
Also, it's not a foul to pot your own colour followed by the opponent's colour in the same shot.
Other than that, a good game.

You can change some of the rules, like 2-shots on the black and an open table after fouls before you start a match.

I'd prefer to have better control over the power of my shot. Rather than a timing thing, maybe you could freeze the angle of the shot and select the power by moving the mouse up and down.
