user

My buddy runs a bar. I told him I'd build him something for Thursdays. He's the one talking here — I just write down what he says and hand it to you.

The game

It's not real pool. Three balls on the table, you shoot until all three are down, and we count how many shots it took you. Low is good. Everybody takes a turn, then we go around again — that's a round.

Twenty bucks to play. You start with five chips. Take more than four shots to clear the table and it costs you a chip. Out of chips and you're out, go back to drinking. Last one with chips left takes the pot.

There's a clock on your turn — a minute, minute and a half, we've never really settled it. Clock runs out and you're not at the table, that's a chip.

The night

It's a Thursday. Nine o'clock, everybody's had a few, the jukebox is loud and half the room is outside smoking. Twelve, sixteen people usually, however many show up. It runs two, three hours and nobody's in a hurry.

Last year I ran the whole thing on a legal pad and it got away from me around round four. Two guys arguing with me about what they shot, me trying to remember whose turn it was, somebody's beer on the pad. Never again.

I'm running this off my phone, one-handed, standing at the table with a beer in the other. There's a TV over the bar and that's the only screen anybody in the room can see — from across the room, in the dark, so it's got to be big. People want to know where they stand without walking over and asking me.

My phone's on 15% by ten. The bar's wifi is the bar's wifi.

The money

Twenty a head, all of it in the pot. Winner takes it — mostly. We kick a little to second. And there's a side thing we do for whoever's shooting best early on, I never wrote that part down properly.

The app doesn't hold the money. I do. But at the end of the night it has to tell me what I owe who, and I'm reading that off my phone with sixteen people standing around the table.

What I want

Two pages.

The console — the thing I run it from, and the thing that goes up on the TV. Open it and there's already a game going. I'm not typing in twelve names to find out whether it works.

The playback — a separate page that plays a whole night through, start to finish, so I can watch it work before Thursday. One step at a time, a step being one thing happening, with the scorecard filling in as it goes and a slider for how fast it runs. I want to slow it down, back it up, and read what just happened. Show me the way a night actually goes.

The playback runs the same rules the console runs. If the two of them drift apart, the playback is a cartoon and it's no use to me.

House rules

Two files. Each one a single HTML file — everything inline, no CDN, no external stylesheet, font, script or image. data: URIs are fine.
No libraries. No frameworks.
No network at runtime.
No localStorage, sessionStorage, cookies or indexedDB — these run in a sandboxed frame where those throw.
Exactly two fenced html blocks: the console first, the playback second. Leave yourself room for the second one.

Answer in exactly these sections

What you filled in

I know I wasn't clear about everything. Everything you had to decide for me, one line each — what you decided and why. Short.

The console

The first fenced html block.

The playback

The second fenced html block.

What'll go wrong

It's Thursday, it's nine o'clock, and I'm running this for real. What comes up that this doesn't handle? Be straight with me. I'd much rather hear it now than find out with sixteen people around a pool table and three hundred dollars sitting on the bar.

assistant

What you filled in

Clock: 75 seconds (1:15). You tap Timeout when someone’s not at the table — no automatic chip loss.
Chip loss: one chip for any turn of 5+ shots (not per extra shot). Timeout also costs one chip.
Turn order: fixed seats; eliminated players are skipped; the round advances when you pass the last original seat.
Early sharpshooter: after Round 1, lowest shot total among players who actually shot (tie splits); prize = 10% of pot.
Second place: last player eliminated; gets 10% of pot.
Winner: last player with chips; gets the remaining 80%.
Pot: $20 × number of players; app tells you who to pay (winner / second / early shooter).
Demo: 12 players, seeded random night; console opens mid-Round 2 so you see a game in progress.
Playback: same 12-player seed simulated to a winner; steps through events with the same engine.
Roster: default 12 names; “New Game” starts fresh with those names and lets you rename/add/remove before the first shot.
No persistence: reload starts over (demo or fresh); keep the phone alive.

What'll go wrong

Battery/reload: there’s no storage. If the phone dies or you refresh, the night is gone. Keep a paper backup.
Getting it on the TV: the app can’t talk to the TV. You have to mirror/cast your phone or open the file on the TV somehow; if that doesn’t work, there’s no TV display.
Timeout is manual: if you don’t tap Timeout, no chip is lost. The clock is only a guide.
Mistakes: Undo only steps back one live action at a time. If you enter a wrong score and keep playing, the standings are wrong.
Late arrivals: you can’t add a player once shots have started (roster locks). They wait, or you restart.
Ties: early-shooter ties split the side prize; no playoff. Payouts are rounded to whole dollars.
Shot entry: quick buttons cover 1–6; for 7+ use the +/- stepper. No keyboard needed, but high scores take taps.
Money: assumes everyone paid $20 up front. The app doesn’t track who still owes you.
Mirrored controls: the TV will also show the control buttons — you can’t hide them without editing the file.
Playback is a simulation: fixed seed, so a real night will differ, but the rules are identical.
