Well, last year the B Tier played it and no one else did, so this year it has been changed. I unfortunately can not make everyone happy. But what I can do is put on a quality event.

It's cool. It was not a derisive sad face. I just didn't play kcwo last year.

You and your big words.

Can you play up top or down under on Saturday for your counted round?

Yes, but if you play Up Top you will need to play one of the 2 shotgun start rounds that are available. Down Under is a flex start.

Potentially talking about 1st Round at Rosedale  on Friday in the afternoon. Then you would play Swope Gold/Rosedale on Saturday.
So should that say "1st round at WW?" or am I putting pieces of this conversation together incorrectly?

No. The B/C Tier would not play Water Works. I don't know where that came from.

1. It sounds very sinister and world-dominate-y that Dick keeps talking about fitting everything in with "my plan."

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?...

Why yes, Brain, but where are we going to find leather chaps at this hour?

2. There is more to this than meets the eye.. GI JOE... sorry, momentary loss of adulthood. I am still debating some other parts of the B/C tier event as well. Like Price point and payout vs. trophy only. Which is not a part of this discussion yet. So please don't jump ahead. We'll get there.

3. If we do a doubles event it will be flex start on thursday like before and it will likely be somewhere other than one of the main 3 courses. Although, that has not been decided. nor will it be for a couple months. More important fish to fry.

This is an option: B-Tier: 2 Days, 3 Rounds, Fri-Sat

How does staffing change if you make it: B-Tier: 2 Days, 3 Rounds, Sat-Sun? I read your post, Im proposing option one sat-sun instead of fri-sat. Maybe I'm missing something...

Edit: Original post I was meaning 3 courses to be played, 3rd choice (wyco or rosey)

Because there are 4 pools and 3 courses. So if the B-Tier were to play on Sunday that would be 4 courses.

Why is there no option for Sat/Sun 3 rounds? I'd rather not use a holiday to get off Friday. There may be a lot in the same boat.

Courses I vote for:
WW
Swope Gold
3rd Choice: Rosey, Wyco

Because you didn't read my post... That would require another course and more staff. I know what we have here in KC and it's unfortunate that most people want to play and not help. I would rather play and not help as well. But it's a staff thing. I already have less people helping this year than last year so that is why. I can just have less people in the event I guess but then there would be less people playing in the event.

I'm glad you are voting on things that aren't up for a vote...

1. Please do not make me play Swope Gold & WW on the same day.
2. Do B & C tier events differ only in the cost to play and the value of the payout? Why would you, as a TD choose one over the other?
3. Is there going to be a doubles competition?
4. You know I'll help out somewhere, sometime! Looking forward to it.

1. Since right now it is Rosedale and Swope Gold in the same day. If I had to change that it would be because it's the only way to make it work with my plan.
2. The biggest difference is price paid in to the PDGA. I would rather pay the PDGA less with the C-Tier but in the scope of things, people on the outside who are enamored with the whole pdga thing get a weird happy twang in their bodies when they are playing in a B-Tier. I don't get it but whatever. Also, some people think if it is a 2 day event it should at least be a B-Tier. Also a thought of the twang in the body by those people. I don't think it matters.
3. Maybe. It would be on Thursday if that were the case.
4. Great.

what are the potential courses?  not a big fan of taking off work to play a rosedale b-tier round and probably wouldnt tbh. 

Potentially talking about 1st Round at Rosedale  on Friday in the afternoon. Then you would play Swope Gold/Rosedale on Saturday. There is also the option of doing those 2 courses on Saturday and then a 3rd unrelated course on Sunday Morning. That would require more staff than I want in order to put together one the the best A-Tiers of 2015. IMHO. But it still is an option.

Rosedale, Swope, Water Works. Very valid opinion. Thank you.

It's poll time. I would like some input on a decision that I must make with the Intermediate and below players. To make my master plan work I am only able to do a maximum of 3 rounds for the B-Tier/C-Tier players and not able to allow play on Sunday.

BTW, the reason we seperate the Int and below players from the A-Tier/NT over the years is to allow people to pay the $10 non-pdga fee to play. If you want to play in the A-Tier portion you will need to move up to Advanced or higher.

Anyway, please look over the poll and make your vote known. I will listen to discussion but before you ask, yes I am still considering the 3rd round to be on Sunday morning but would like not too. If this is your only option you may choose "Non of the Above." Please vote and help me mold the event. Thanks.

I'm sure the city has keys. Possibly John Theiss has keys too.
