About
9 BALL BUT WITH A TWIST
Everybody plays 9-ball at the same table. When somebody sinks the nine, they win the rack.
Winning the rack keeps you safe.
The two lowest scoring players from that rack get sent out back to settle the score.. with weapons.

THE POOL PHASE
It's casual 9-ball, no called shots. You always have to hit the lowest-numbered ball on the table first. After that, anything that drops on that shot counts, and you keep shooting. Miss, and the turn passes. Sink the 9 legally and the rack is yours.
This is a grimy bar competition, this is last man standing. When only two players remain, nobody is safe. You both go out back, that's the final.
THE BRAWL
You start with the ol' reliable, your fists. You can block attacks with your garbage can lid, be careful not to hold it up too long.
Weapons drop into the alley in waves, and the first one there owns them. If the timer runs out, whoever has more health takes the fight. Lose and you're done for the night.
