4/29/13 League Results

[jack]

It is going to be a wonderful evening for disc golf and I look to rebound from that horrendous showing this weekend....Looking forward to having a bunch of us out there.  I should be there ~5:30 to get us moving along!

Well, it was a windy one from the onset, and the course had quite a few casuals out there enjoying the weather as well.  We started with 16 players, but only 13 14 now, getting closer all of them now......scores were turned in.  I am awaiting the last three for "official results".  Even though this is a PDGA league, I don't plan on assessing 2 penalty strokes per player for not turning in the scorecard within 20 minutes.

Reminder next week is going to be at Blue Valley, I want us to try to tee off by 5:45 and in threesomes, I ma uncertain if we are playing "Big Blue" or the Inner Course at this point....With 15 of the 16 getting in the Ace fund, it moves above $300 to a total of $304 heading out to Blue Valley next week.  I will update after I get the missing three scores as well.

How do you have a score for Matt Crowe and no score for Matt Crowe at the same time?

[jamidanger]

oh i got this analogy parker, i have a ryan westa beer in my cooler, but i'll feel guilty when i drink it so i'm putting it off for an hour so if he were to want it back officially then i would have a beer and not have a beer at the same time or trade a beer back to him at a later date

[Utz]

oooh, it all makes sense now..

[jack]

Notice the strike through, so I put in his information.  I did the best i could with Timmisch as he said that they all played so poorly they left....why we couldn't find them at the end of our round.....

13. Deliberately seeking to manipulate ones player rating through intentional misplay or withdrawal.

We had that on our card as well, as Ryan said he was DNF'g...since though we were in 3 somes, and 2-somes can't play and have a round be "official" we couldn't allow him to quit.  He did though then can a 50' putt to finish with a 2.  Since the same maybe made on Crowe giving me his score in the morning in order to have it count, the remainder of the scores needed to be relayed.  Since this information was relayed in a fashion that this Event Director is comfortable with, then  !

Based on the participation of the first midway session, I am leaning towards making this league run as a PDGA league the remainder of the year, and will balance it with the league schedule.  More to follow on that, but I like the attendance that is increasing out here and I think that it is a direct contribution to this component.

[robm]

more to follow on how points are going to be distributed?

[Tracy]

Since this information was relayed in a fashion that this Event Director is comfortable with, then  !

It is up to the TD to make a judgment call as to the reason the DNF took place.  As far as turning in cards late, sure, since it's not event critical to have them "on time."  But it's too easy to just walk away when a bad round is to be put on record.  Another reason these PDGA leagues for player ratings are sketchy, in my opinion.   But it's good the league attendance is up.  (maybe the increase is because the Team Challenge is scheduled for two rounds at Cliff?)

[jack]

Then team Challenge at cliff shall happen 3x year?

Points will be based on the # of rounds played being the 1st criteria if the PDGA is allowing it to happen this way.  That will obviously be broken by strokes provided it is the same weeks played.  Those weeks that are different in the event that the # of weeks played is equal, let say 2 people are +10  & +14 with 8 weeks played, they played the same time in 6 of those weeks, the remaining 2 weeks will be broken by Ratings, yep I hear ya now, but ratings will be the tiebreaker for rounds played.  We would add the ratings of the 2 rounds not played by each othere, divide by 2, and the highest rating will be awarded higher placement positioning even if the +14 is higher.  Why is that you ask?  Because Par at Blue Valley and it's subjectiveness with the scoring is about as simple as Ratings. 

They would have to be tied on the 6 weeks that they played together for this to be working, otherwise the 6 weeks played on the same courses will be the first tie breaker.

[robm]

Not exactly the way I would do it, but then I'm not running it.
Just as long as there is a plan, I'm ok with the plan.

thanks,
