TGC Match Play - 2016 Open Flight

[mthunt]

Attached is the bracket. Here's the instructions and rules:

Step 1:
-Reach out to your opponent via Private Message on this forum.
-Set up a 2 hour window to play
-Please ensure your name in TGC is the same as it is in this bracket. If not, let your opponent know.
-Decide who is starting the game and inviting the other in the match

Step 2:
-Add each other as friends in TGC using TGC nickname
-This is done at the start up screen where "start server" and "start game" is by clicking the icon with 3 heads then add your opponent.
-Both have to do it

Step 3:
-decide on a method of communication
-You can text, whatsapp, teamspeak, phone each other or use the new discord method. If you don't agree, we default to TeamSpeak
-Here's TeamSpeak login

Server Address:
45.63.67.150:8011
Server Password:
***

Step 4:
-Both players enter TGC and go to main screen where you click play
-Both players need to set their handicap to 0. This is done by hitting play round then hitting edit on your player. There's a spot called "set handicap". Set it to 0 then save then back out to main screen if you are not the host..
-The host player now enters the match by clicking the little arrow in the first box that defaults to "Stroke Play". Set it to "Online Match Play" (has to be online) then "advance". Click "all courses" then enter the following course in the text box:

Pine Valley ProTee Championship Tees by Craig118

-start the round as you normally do then select "OPEN". You are in the lobby. Your playing partner should be listed there. Click on him and it'll invite him to the tee. Just start your game from there.
-Before hitting a shot, both players now need to click settings, turn order, set to on. This will allow you to see your partner play in real time. Other wise, you'll appear as a ghost ball. You can have it off if both agree. If you don't agree, on is the default.
-Everything should be automatic from there.

Step 5:
-Post on this thread who won.

Good luck and feel free to post any questions of PM me.

I think Protee is implying the guy wiggling and doing Preshot stuff...etc.

Turn order animation is different than just turn order, I believe.

That said, I still have it on. Gonna switch it off tonight.

yes off there is still wiggling but no swing is shown it takes off like 10 seconds or so

You can just move goatbarn into the next round. He was up 2 on me and I have a wicked cold now so I wouldn't be able to play until Wednesday most likely.

[mthunt]

Sounds good

[wbond]

I don't know. I sent him an message last week and haven't heard back. It says he was online yesterday. I will try to ping him again.

Yes that's right. Evenly matched until we got on the green. That guy can putt!

[gene438]

Sorry guys I was called out of town and just got back in tonight ... I can play tomorrow night and have reached out to banover....if this is too late I understand , if not hopefully banover and I can play tomorrow night will let you know when I hear from him

[Tonyd9366]

Timdm3 and I played our match today and mid way through we got kicked off by the server. We tried to hook back up but we couldnt. so tomorrow we are going to start fresh. we played 9 and we are square. So we are going to replay the front nine and count that as 18 holes and see where we end up.. I've never lost a player before this is wierd. There is Def something going wrong with the server..

[mthunt]

Did you play in match play mode or stroke play mode?

[Timdm3]

Match play mode. Everything was silky smooth until 9th hole

[mthunt]

I recommend you play stroke play and score the match yourselves.

[Brandon]

Gene and I are trying to arrange to play tonight of that's ok?

[mthunt]

That's fine. I suggest stroke play then manually score the match

[Wyzyguy]

Mickey & I played in stroke play mode for our matchplay. @mickey lost connection with the game once. Got right back on & continued without loss of any shots.

Yes that's right. Evenly matched until we got on the green. That guy can putt!

Seriously! I had thought "sim putting is just about getting it to gimme range"..... then I played a round with wyz..... he threatens draining almost every putt.... including the 47 footer he sunk when I played with him.

[aeroburner]

what about me bro wheres the love on my short game

[Stingreye]

Seriously! I had thought "sim putting is just about getting it to gimme range"..... then I played a round with wyz (and a couple with Aeroburner) ..... he threatens draining almost every putt (but Aeroburner's name should be "bottom of the cup" because that's where all his putts end up).... including the 47 footer he sunk when I played with him (it was almost as good as the 47 foot 3 inch putt aeroburner made).

aeroburner That ^^^^ better?

[aeroburner]

kind of but not really, now its a pity call out but i will take it lol. we playing tonight a group round your kids feeling better

[Stingreye]

I am working on it.....I hope to.... kids are still sick and now wife is sick..... Might be pressing my luck to get a round in tonight.

[gene438]

OK, the match between Gene and branover is complete and let's just say branover cruised to an easy victory....no need to get into the gory details.I think we both really enjoyed the online play but there are some bugs to work out. We froze up a couple of times and actually played the front nine twice because when we tried to concede hole to get back to where we were, we kept freezing up.

Branover was clear winner and moves to the next round.

[Brandon]

I enjoyed playing our match as well. I hope they continue to work out the kinks, could be great. Nice playing with you Gene and thanks for all your assistance in the process.

[Timdm3]

Tony and I had a grudge match all the way to 18. I ended up squeezing it out +2 on 18. It was a ton of fun. Thanks for a great match Tony.
