I have never seen pin placements that extreme in any of our CC tourneys. Looks like 'goony golf'! I have never played either of those courses though.

ezzinomilonga I haven't played either of those courses, but I am going to go ahead and say that this is somehow an issue with your course loading. No designer would slope greens like that on purpose and get it approved. Each one of those examples is extreme, almost unplayable, and something you would find on a "silly" or "crazy" labelled course and not something expected to host tournaments. I am sorry that this is happening to your loads, but I am 99% confident that this is some sort of game error for you unfortunately. You are not annoying anyone here who actually cares about this game by the way. One thing I have learned about this community in my short time here since January is that most are very patient with newcomers, and are more than willing to help out and explain this great game. I am actually surprised you have kept on persisting even playing this game after running into a green like this like you posted in one of your examples... In all this story, from the start the point was not if and how much strokes i could lose. My only wish here was to try to understand why this happens. And still i want. Who knows, it could be a graphic setup i use..i don't know. But i think it should be important..useful.. to know. I don't think it can happens just at me. I'm sure here and there it will be someone who suffers from the same absurd glitch (cause is this, i'm prety sure now). I'll do some experiment, if i should find something i'll share the information. In all this thing I'm very sad just for 3 reasons : 1) I tested 2nd and 3rd Pin and the 3rd just don't allows to play. Is in a spot too much unplayable, with the only available landing point leaving a severe downhill putt and the void 5 cm after the cup. If i end short in the approach or long with the putt,it would be a easy 11 strokes hole. Would be senseless...so sadly i can't play this week tourney. I really wish to play the tourney here. Your course is a beauty. I was sure, about this, even when i still was not awared about the issue's "nature". 2) I strongly believe now that this thing it happens also in the fairways. Playing with more attention at your course in those practice rounds for other pins, i found at least a fairway (maybe two) and also another green that, looking at it with more attention, seems to have something strange. If you're a bit curious, tomorrow (or when i'll play again) i'll take some pic to show you what i mean and to see if things sounds familiar or not to you. But you have to promise that you'll not apologize again. In fact the worst part in all this thing is that now is hard (and always it will be), looking at some hard slope, to don't ask myself if i'm looking things as imagined by designer or if is my pc who creates it just for my pleasure But i'm confident that this thing happens just a very little number of times. 3) You see..one of the reason that make me so happy to be here was just the exact same thing that you reported, about the kindness and the willing to help and the etcetera etcetera of everyone here. Is by a month that i say this thing. I was so happy JUST for this thing. But what happened here is very delusional.. About this, i wish really..really to thank you jwtexan and TheDominator273 because, after my "rant", as someone called and considered it (even who don't use openly this word), you were the only two here that at least before to decide and to tell me that i was complaining with no reason, gave me the benefit of the doubt and the chance to show the pic and demonstrate that i was not complaining about some yellow pin near some hole or some other stupid or invented thing. Maybe also both of you were with this idea in mind...but you at least gave me the chance. And i appreciated it. Enormously. And all this while someone else, a BUNCH of people in fact, preferred from the very start simply to decide that i was just complaining with no reason and so (the most offensive thing) the only thing they were good enough to do or to say and to repeat all together (4-5 times, at least, excluding the good Celtic Wolf that was the first to tell me this and to have my answer in which i said that i was awared of this whole fact he was talking about, but that just not seemed the case) it has been just trying to convince myself that i'm in fact too stupid to recognize the difference between a pin slightly near some yellow slope AND a messed up green. Very supportive attitude. And i'm also sure that at least a good pair of them, decided to do this without even try to take a look to the pic i shared...cause i prefere to believe that if they should see that pic before to speak, they would be ashamed just to think a second, about the idea to consider my point just a stupid and senseless "rant". And the fact that even now that is clear that i WERE RIGHT, to point out this issue, that nothing here has something to do with some yellow line and "different point of views" on some green, no one of those usually great supportive guys he's even just pretending to apologize. And they should to do, cause their attitude and way of speaking to me was just disrespectful and delusional. From the start. Really. Is now obviously clear that for them i'm not worthy of some minimal confidence or credit...I don't deserve neither the simple benefit of the doubt, from the too great height of their experience. Is also obvious that the spirit that moved me in everything i said and i does here, even when i'm wrong and with my poor english, it is from the first day and until now mainly and absolutely twisted and misunderstood. And not appreciated, in the end. But well. Is fine. All the world is a little town, we said in Italy. Everywhere and everytime is already easier to be arrogant and to point the finger then be humble and to recognize that it can happens, to be wrong. And to act as an a$$hole. I'm also sure that they can justify easily themselves cause everyone of them, in the identical same situation, being so smarter and more experienced then me, should IMMEDIATELY understand that the more likely solution here was not some kind of human error (as i was thinking at the start ..and this is in fact the breaked taboo..the capital sin of lese majesty that justified their attitude with me in this situation, in their eyes. This is the saddest part.), but an absurd glitch of the game. For sure. The absurd glitch who afflicts just one user was the more obvious solution from the start, then a pin not so well placed. How stupid i can be... Well I'm also awake from something as 43 hours., the day at work was horrible and I need just a shower and some rest. Tomorrow probably i'll be a bit less crestfallen and slightly disgusted by all this thing. Good golf to anyone and enjoy the tournament even for me

Round 3 was a clean -7. -16 thru 3, not gonna cut it and looking like a demo mark if I'm not lucky.
Onward.

grinder12000 😂 no no mate,the coffee is not the main reason why i don't sleep as a normal human does. I swear. In fact coffe has just no impact on my sleep. If i need REALLY to sleep, i could drink a gallon of coffee and then to sleep normally. I just don't like anymore to sleep. It should need a long explaination. In fact, i know i have very strange habits in...well..in a lot of things, but i'm fine with them.

Round 4.....Thought it was gonna be special when I was -5 thru 6. Then it just stopped. No drops, but only two more birds the rest of the way.
Another -7. Sigh.
Onward.

Coffee has no effect on me either. I can drink 3 cups of coffee and take a nap. Love the taste though

Finished in a five way tie for first, but lost on the tie breaker. A few missed putts really burning in my mind now.

Everytime i think about the worst think can it happens in a tournament, is exactly this. I know that almost anyone in the end can say the same about at least 2-3 putts really hard to miss, but anyway you have all my simpathy.

Ok not sure if anyone else sees a pattern like I saw in round 1:
Outward half: Nothing drops, miss a couple of par saves by THAT much....+2.
Inward half: Much friendlier looking course. Feels comfortable. Clean 29er.
-5. Not sure how to feel, but.....
Onward!

Seems really interesting, but sadly i still have the issue i suffered at Tantallon Castle. Just a lot worst. Starting the 4th hole, it seems a course after a tornado 👀 I hope i can solve this thing..i'm trying. But i honestly don't know. Is so sad to quit a tournament just for a stupid glitch.. But well..good luck anyway, mate.

Sorry guys but..how it works the ghost player? I mean, if someone want to use my play as a ghost player, he can always do it? Or i have to do something to give the chance to someone to use my game as a ghost?

Or i have to do something to give the chance to someone to use my game as a ghost? If you have played a round on that course, someone can use your ghost by selecting "Add Player" at the Begin Round page. Then click "Add Ghost" and select the player you want.
