They said a gambler keeps on going back not to win, but for the thrill of losing. A pingpong player is cursed with something even worse. He'll lose if he tries too hard to win. And the real fun starts when he finally gives up trying.
No game is more illusive than pingpong. Any deviation from playing with what's second nature spells disaster. Therefore, the prerequisite to improving one's game is to embracing the habit of losing. In fact, our visibility to what's really going on in a match is so low that we are really playing blind.
This, however, does not mean we could not do something afterwards. Here is where pingpong doctor comes in. Pondoc, as it's abbreviated, is designed to decipher the maze that is intrinsic to pingpong. Backed up by the most advanced computer software automation technology and a research to develope the ultimate playing style, called pongfu, Pondoc is committed to beat pingpong in its own game.
Pondoc is a computer program to analyze pingpong match. As in all programs in the automated computing environment ROBACUS, pondoc is in natural-language, both for it's programming and execution. And it is continually evolving to become what every serious student of pingpong would naturally want to use to study his game.
Pondoc uses a try-and-error, iterative approach to breakdown a match. It iteratively identifies the players' strengths and weaknesses, including combinations of shots. It allows repeated viewing of the actual playing, point by point, until story-telling judgements can be made, thus, registered. Pondoc would then tally all the causes and effects and produce a comprehensive statistics necessary for the player to make plan for his drills and strategy for future matches.
