Pocketing the 8-ball before all the other balls (save for the cue ball) is pocketed results in an automatic YOU LOSE.
IIDE/Theory: once all of the members of the Felt are killed off (except for maybe LE, not sure 'bout that), Snowman can be killed without canceling the universe.
The game still ends if you pocket the 8-ball at any point, however. It just alters who wins and loses. If we view the game as the universe, killing Snowman last would still destroy the universe, but would do so in a manner that would be viewed as a success.
What the Heck was so special about Snowman anyway?  I never did figure out her whole "the universe ends if she dies" thing, and she can teleport and shit.  The Black Queen in the kids' game dropped like a sack of potatoes after Jack met her.

Doc Scratch granted her some kind of power. The power to teleport around, Apparently Doc Scratch has to die too, so it's apparently not so simple as just shooting her or anything like that. Bluh bluh billiards metaphors.
As the cueball, Scratch would kill her and then die/commit suicide.

Well, following the pool motif, that would mean Scratch has to arrange for the deaths of all the Felt, which he kinda did in some timeline or another (I always thought the "real" world was immune to the timeline shenanigans, but I'm probably wrong, hope for a cohesive cosmology aside).  Then, he or somebody or anybody has to kill Snowman, then he dies, then the "game" is over.  And for some reason, that summons Lord English (who was already around in the Intermission?) even though his name references part of the game, not its ending.  And a real billiards game ends as soon as the 8-ball is gone, so if that's the trigger, Scratch could just off her at any time, but doesn't so that's probably all wrong.

Fuck, as much as I love this story and never want it to end, I'm honestly looking forward to the ending just to know what the crap is going on and what it all means.  Careful what you wish for, I guess.

I'm no billiards expert, but I'm glad I got that sort of right having played it a few times on a cell phone and then never playing it again.
Not sure what a "successful" universe elimination would be like, or who/what would be involved to make it so, but yeah, that makes sense. Besides the fact that destruction of the/a universe can be considered a success at all, especially in a game (Sburb/Sgrub) that's meant to create universes.

So....... we never got that disc back from Doc. Does that mean all of this is bullshit? Where does the disc end and the real game world that isn't the real real world unless Hussie's getting all meta again end? Which came first, the larvae or the mother grub? What am I even saying anymore? Do you like movies about George Wendt eating beans?

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Despite the fact that they're making out on top of their recently deceased friends lifeless corpse?

I think he was referring to the sloppiness factor. That just barely qualifies as sloppy.

Technically speaking, they're not even making out.  I was promised makeouts.  All I got was tame fanart, and out of focus hugging.

Come to think of it, for a race of warlike murderous bugpeople, this kids sure do mope it up easy.  C'mon, you're still four for twelve, not counting the crazy guy.  1/3 will keep you in the Majors at least.

After reading Homestuck, Tom & Jerry becomes a love story. I don't know if this is a good thing or not.
