Re: World Golf Tour.com online free golf game
 
You guys seem like you are experienced. I have a question about the country clubs. I wanted to host a tournament in which the winner will get their choice of either a random 5 pack of cigars from my collection or a tin of pipe tobacco from my cellar. The problem is though that I want it to be more than just one forum who can participate. I made my own country club but found out that you have to be in it to be in the tournament. My question is, can people leave and join country clubs as much as they want without penalty? And if so then does this mess up their scores within that country club they are already in?

I guess if this doesn't work out I could always just have each country club host a tourney and then compare the scores of each one and the top score wins.

Had fun playing a round with you yesterday, Albert. I'm glad you got over your allergy. Hope to do it again.

Congrats to Tim for the latest CTTH win!

I had a ton of close shots but always had a 70-90 foot result that killed me. I must have played 100 times. I had the first two down to 5 feet or so, but couldn't get the last few holes figured out. I had several runs where I had around 190-200 feet after 8 holes but just couldn't hit the right landing spot on 9...

My best possible was 48.xx. Sometimes I couldn't get the drive all the way there.

Whatever floats your boat, but my boss won't be happy at the time I spend playing 18 over and over again. :)

I should have time tonight to set some up. I will put an 18 hole out there. Maybe tomorrow, that way people have the weekend to play it.

So getting back to this. What I had in mind was a Tournament for CA Country Club. Entry Fee is a Fiver of smokes with the winner and runner up getting the
prize. As CC owner I would not participate, just accept the entry fee, and monitor the results and prize payout.
I am thinking a CTTH Tournament, just because it gives the widest range of shots, and the ability to play often.
Currently there are 20 members in the CC, with the ability for 10 more.
I think that we would need to have at least 10 particpants for this to work.

Let me know your thoughts.

I dont like the ability to play and play and play again, some of us dont have that kind of time. It would be nice if you could make it an 18 hole tournament, you play your 18 adn thats your score. Only problem is if someone gets to the last hole and doesnt like their score, right now I think they could quit and not save and restart.


OR Better yet!

Lets do a MatchPlay tournament. Get entrys, make a random bracket, and have the players arrange time to play each other. You have one week to complete your first matchup, then set up the next round of pairs....THAT would be sweet!

I'm in, but I don't think as CC owner you should be excluded. The rules of golf make it a fair field for you as well... fire away Tony!

Agreed. You can make it to where it is a one and done per player.
Match play may be tough, but I'm up for whatever!

+1 Tony, I would hate for you to put in all the effort to get this up and running & not be able to participate.

newcigarz 02-24-2011 07:40 PM

Re: World Golf Tour.com online free golf game
 
CCs can only create 2 kinds of Tournaments, Stroke Play & CTTH. You can limit the Tournament to single round. If it's like the standard single round Tournament, to quit mid round is a forfeit. You can also limit the time to 24 hrs.
I really did not want to go outside of the CC setting. If there is not an interest in doing this, that's ok too.

If you or someone else wants to set-up another style Tournament outside the CC that would work too, but it just would not be a CA Tournament.

Because it would be me creating the Tournament, I would want to be excluded to be fair and impartial in the event of a discrepancy. I really don't mind sitting it out. Also as Tour Pro, I have the highest ranking of our members.
I wanted to see if there is interest.

Go ahead and set up the single round kind. And when that is done I will organize a CC matchplay tournament. It will be fun to give it a go. I have some things I want to think about relating to how I am going to do the matchplay tourney. So it may be next week or so before I do it. But a one and done tourney for 5 cigars sounds fun!

When you say limit it to 24 hours what do you mean? I can't play in the next 24 hours so that wouldnt be good for me. I was hoping you could give everyone through the weekend to play their round.

Not ready to do that. If we have enough interest, first step would be to set up a post with the rules and guidelines.
Next everyone would have to send their entry fee up front. I will be responsible for handling the payout. Once all entry fees are in, or the deadline/min. # of players is met. I would give 24 hr notice and then set up the Tournament.

I actually do better with the tough greens (relatively). I never bought any clubs so I need things to run-out and compensate for length.

Exactly how I felt. I was at even par on number 6. Then 4 putted from five feet away. Somehow each put seemed to be five feet. Number 7 three putt. Number 8 4 putt. Number 9 end round before I break my computer.

Don't know, maybe SC finally seceded :hm :D


I just played and was doing fine and then blew up on the last two holes. The 'standard' greens had me thrown off a bit as I have just gotten adjusted to fast and tournament greens. All my puts ended up short
