    Theme Color: Red

    Cartrydge(C)
    HoganWoods
    TheLono
    Chefrank

    Throttle

    Format:

    Day 1: Fourball - 1 point per match
    Day 2: Fourball - 1 point per match
    Day 3: Fourball - 1 point per match
    Day 4: Singles - 1 point per match

    Format to be approved by captains and is subject to change. Days can be added or removed if needed.

    How it all works:

    Captains will set the pairings for each session on the onlinegoltour.net site. The matchups will then be revealed the morning of the matches. Once pairings are revealed, all players selected must complete the designated matches or their team will lose the point. Should a team need to replace a player the day of the matches for any reason, they will start off with a 3 hole penalty in that match. This is to make sure that teams don’t move players between matches to try and favor a matchup. Remember that each team will not know who they will play against when they pick their pairings. There will be no handicaps, its up to the captains to make good selections based on their intent. Example: Put out a power team first and a weaker team somewhere else. Or you could balance out all the teams. The strategy behind the pairings will be left up to the captains.

    How to keep score:

    Players will login to their regular Tour accounts and proceed to My Tournaments. The RyderCup event will be listed there and each person will see the matches that they have been assigned the day of the match in question. They will not see the matches before that time. If the match is a team match, any of the players on each team can go and keep score for that team. You don't need both teammates to do it, but both can from their own accounts. Once the match is over, the scorecard will say so. You may continue to play but do not enter anymore scores. This is to make sure the final score for each match is accurate.

    Matches:

    All players will report to Teamspeak for their matches and then play.

    For fourball:
    Players of match 1 will use TeamSpeak Ryder Cup "Match 1" of their respective team channels. Same for match 2, 3, and 4.

    Example: Zmax/Craig are playing Bubb22/HoganWoods in match 1. Zmax and Craig will use Ryder Cup -The Green Jackets Match 1 channel. Bubba22 and HoganWoods will use Ryder Cup - W.G.D Match 1 channel.

    Important Turn Order settings:
    After both teams have all 4 players added to the game, 1 player from each team will have to set Turn Order to Disable. So, for team 1, player 1 has Turn Order Enabled while player 2 has turn order Disabled. And for team 2, player 1 will have Turn Order Enabled while player 2 will have Turn Order Disabled.

    Players with Turn Order Off will play at their own pace and can communicate their shots to their partners. Then wait at the next tee. Once all 4 players are at the next hole, the same process is repeated.


    For Singles:
    Players will use TeamSpeak channels in the Ryder Cup - Singles for matches 1-8

    TeamSpeak Whisper mode:
    This will be used during fourball matches. This will allow players from 1 team to talk to players on the other team using a "Whisper" hot key. This is a different key from your normal talk key.

    Here's how to setup a "Whisper" key:
    In Teamspeak window,


    1: click on tools.
    2: Click on Whisper List
    3: Click on New
    4: When ask to set a whisper hot key, select a key that is different from your normal talk key(if you're using one). I use the space bar for my whisper hotkey.
    5: In the box on the right, click on ************** TS Server
    6: Click on Clients. You opponents names will be there if they're in TeamSpeak
    7: Drag your opponents names into the "Whisper" box(the box in the middle).
    8: Hit Apply. and OK.
    9: You will now be able to talk(Whisper) to your opponents in the other channel whenever you hold down the Whisper hotkey and talk.
    10: After the match is over, remove you opponents from your whisper list.


    More to come...

        New guy Pinseeker (Dirk) will be added to team W.G.D. The 9th players for each team will be on standby for day 1 matches. Then will get rotated in for the other days. On the 4th day (singles), we will try to do 9 vs 9.

            With regards to setting up for 4 players. Last night I joined up with mmlincon and voodoo. They had already started their round and were a few holes ahead. I added them both but did not turn enable turn order on. Once I added then I was able to see ball trails and yardage numbers (they had left, to their hole they were playing). Depending on how the holes ran some times the shots were on a fairway beside me. Looked quite neat. They added me to their round but did not see me for a while. I eventually caught up and could see their ball trail and numbers for their shots. One time I was on the fairway ahead and turned my view back to the tee box and could see a shot coming right toward me which was also cool.

            After a bit they both were able to see my player on their screens hitting. Then on one hole things froze up for them right after I made a chip onto the green for a gimmie. For me I was able to keep playing but they both had to shut down and continue their game. A few holes later my game was locking up and taking a min or so to show a shot after I hit. I tried to shut down GSX and restart that but made no difference. I ended up getting my last hole in and then tried shutting TGC down and started a new game and all was fine and no delay.

            So all of this leads to my question. Is my internet speed the cause of this or are others having this happen as well. Also are 4 players trying to play even with two not having enable turn order on, going to end up with the same issues? I am wondering if all 4 players need to be playing without turn order enabled. Again we would still see most of the shots and have an idea of where they all are going. The only issue is with this match play idea, it is a big advantage having players hit in order and seeing what they did. We could talk this through as we play and have the low team score tee off first and once they both did, the other team would see the ball trail and then they would hit. On the fairway we would need to watch the yardage left to the hole for who hits next or again talk through it.

            Thoughts?

              Yes, it's your connection. But you're not alone. Others with slow connections have similar issues. Let's try to play the way I wrote in the Ryder Cup info. If you guys start getting sync issues and it can't be fixed with a simple turn order off/on, then play it out with turn order off for all four players.

                        Good first round guys. Some good matches and the result doesn't show how good some guys played. The Green Jackets will redeem in round 2! A new player will be joining, Rambo! Not sure where he'll go, I guess that's up to the captains!
