« on: April 10, 2013, 11:40:25 AM »Utz. I'm shocked you don't already have a formula for evaluating Disc Golf IQ. Something like years played divided by courses played multiplied by the player's handicap...
divide by zero and all is clear as day.

Wyco course record: David Hemmeline - 45
Not the easiest possible layout either.

« on: April 08, 2013, 05:31:14 PM »Awe crap! Feel like a total Newb. Can't believe I didn't notice the date of that post. I must have just missed everyone teeing off. I rolled up to Wyco very close to 5:30. If everyone tee'd off from #1, I pulled up as the last 3 were teeing off. Either way, look forward to playing this Friday.
Thx
Kyle
Kyle, yes, that was us teeing off. We usually shotgun start. So the other group of three started on #3 about the same time.

« on: April 08, 2013, 11:20:17 AM »So I am New to KCFDC. I missed the post about WYCO League moving to WYCO lake. So i showed up a WYCO park last friday to Crickets...
So I dont look foolish again this upcoming week. Where are WYCO lake is the course goint to be setup? I did not see that in the forum.. (Sorry if its there and I missed it)
Kwiewald, sorry you missed us. Yep, the post about Wyco Lake was an April fools joke. Wyco summer league will always be at Wyandotte County Park. We started Friday April 5th promptly at 5:30. (I almost didn't make it because of accident traffic on K7). Anyway, we don't usually meet at the tennis courts by hole #1. Instead, we meet just to the south of there, in the parking lot for shelter "J." Look forward to meeting you.

Mike don't be discouraged. Volunteerism is very difficult to promote and be successful with. And the number of views here is not a good indicator of interest. Anyway, you deserve thanks/praise. Appreciation and knowing we're making an impact is why we volunteer. Pay no mention to the rest.
How can you expect to get volunteer hours from people that ask, "What do 'I' get for my club dues?"
Here's how I deal with it. When I call for a workday at Wyco, I expect no one to show. When good folks do show, I am stoked about it and show my appreciation and let them know they are making an impact. Once the workday is complete, I reinforce that with a post here about what got done and who was there to make it happen.
I have spoken with countless folks out on our courses that have no idea the role the KCFDC plays in our course management. I think the league schedule posters are great and all. But I'd really like to see a similar sized poster right next to it explaining what the club is and what we do besides run leagues. Some awareness out in the field may help to promote volunteerism for the club.

Six out on a windy but pleasant April 5th evening at Wyco. Six in the ace pot, so it grows to 6 more bucks than it was; eight hundred sumtin'.
Open:
FYI: If you're coming from the east on I70, do not take 110th to Riverview Rd. The bridge across I70 is closed. Instead, go to the K7 exit, make a right at the light and take the first right onto Riverview road to the park.
Open:
| # | Name | Score | Payout |
| 1 | Cooper A | 56 | $10 |
| 2 | Pete C | 58 | $8 |
| 3 | Nick A | 59 | |

« on: April 08, 2013, 09:33:19 AM »Is the 2nd the last/only chance left to qualify for the KS team?
Actually, disregard my comment about the 2nd. The final west qualifier is the 9th of May at Water Works. So the West side won't be at WW the same day as East.

« on: April 04, 2013, 04:37:28 PM »My second qualifier will be held at the Water Works league night on Thursday May 2nd.
I can't make it there on the 2nd. Which is why I had already scheduled it for the 9th.

Ryan, you may have up to 5 captains picks for your starting squad if you wish. West side will be carrying 2-3 alternates. You may carry up to 4 alternates. With the event being 2 days, some people just can't make all three rounds. I want teams to have flexibility to work around player availability.

Points are either Pro or Am. Point accumulation isn't by division. Jack, you didn't accumulate MPO points and MPM points, you accumulated Pro points. Same for MA1 and MM1, you accumulated Am points. But you still have to a report division so the PDGA can use the appropriate points factor.

Jack, from the PDGA league FAQ.
How does league scoring work for final awards and payouts? TDs can run their leagues pretty much however they run them now using best average scores, a points system, best 4 of 10 finish positions or handicaps to determine nightly and final league standings. Payouts will not be reported to the PDGA so amateurs may even get cash payouts if the TD prefers and they will not lose their amateur standing.

« on: April 02, 2013, 02:51:09 PM »Are PDGA points awarded for each round? Or is the 10 round league considered one event? If it's the former, I call BS. If it's the later, eh, whatever.
Found the answer myself. It's one points value based on some sort of standings at the conclusion of the league.
3 spreadsheets, Jack? But it's "auto-magically" done by the PDGA.
I think this is meant to be a "league" not 10 minis.

« on: April 02, 2013, 01:57:38 PM »Travis will not be there this Friday. I don't have a league packet, but will be there to wing it for a start by 5:30.
What about paint? Do you have paint? Gotta have some paint. Without paint the course is super lame and boring and too easy.
Have Timko mail ya the packet. It'll be there by Friday if he sends it by tomorrow morning.....
The paint from K-U-W is still quite visible, silly defiling stuff that it is. The course is still in K-U-W 2nd round settings. So yes, super lame, boring and easy.
Travis is the LD. I think he already has the Wyco packet.
