Look, I am not going to sit here and argue about this stupid tour that I used to like. I just dont appreciate being told 2 different things. It is well documented that more than one of your tour managers have said people will be added the +36 for shot recording. I play by the rules. I know I won, others agree with me, including one of your tour managers I could care less about it any more, I have better things to do. Good Day.

By the way, the 2 that finished ahead of me were taken off the waste management leaderboard the following week so dont tell me you only do it in the case of rewinds.

I think the tour managers as well as Protee are still learning how to best resolve these issues. Post-processing the leaderboard may be something they want to avoid, since it's more work. I'm sure none of the people involved have anything against you personally. I'm reading your posts like you're taking it that way...

[ProTee United]

We removed the players.

Thanks, ProTee! I sure appreciate it. I know you have better things to do also. This tour is important to a lot of people on here based on the comments and I enjoy it quite a bit also. I know you are working to get a fix in the code and I appreciate the effort and hopefully this problem is a thing of the past. Shot recording is a great way to level the playing field and though there are still ways people can cheat, you cannot prevent all. You have certainly done all you could though and it has made me want to start playing regularly now.

Goatbarn - I dont feel that way at all. I know I have been talking with Keither on it and feel he has always been on my side. I know it's more work and I know they have better things to do. I also know the rules are important to everyone. I know there was some discussion yesterday on people will find a way to cheat, etc... This was simply a matter of winning on the wrong week when the merchandise show was going on and them being unavailable to fix this before the tournament ended. Nothing personal at all. My point was if it has been done the week before and the week after, it should be done for that week.

I just played for the first time. (Had a heck of a lot of fun!!) From reading through this thread it says you have to have the same name on the tour that you use on this site ????? I used the name I have on TGC which is different then the "Nickname" i requested which is different then the name I use here............................... Am I screwed ??

To take full advantage of what the tour website has to offer, you will want to be set up properly.

Some light reading for you...... and welcome to the tour.

Once you are set up properly, you will see yourself on the tour website. All your scorecards will be kept as well as your handicap. Shot recording is also a great tool to help you work on your game.

Please keep your name consistent in TGC, and this site.

[StanMI]

Thank you !!! I will read through those.

I did try to keep it consistant but I screwed up somewhere. When I purchased TGC it asked me for a "Nickname" and I used one with a "@" in it. I never could use it to log in. The only one that worked was my real life name. (which I'd rather not use). Thats where the 3 log in's came from
