Only in the PGA thread, can two people's charts get posted - one who is DQ-ed two consecutive weeks (for pretty damn obvious issues from his charts) and one who hasn't failed the API all season........but it's the latter person who has now been under scrutiny for the last 2 pages...........with most of the accusations coming from someone who has himself been (repeatedly?) DQ-ed, has recently deliberately sandbagged down to Euro (and then suddenly appears right at the top of the leaderboard there despite 'not taking it seriously') FFS. Do you really not know how to read? What in the actual $%@k are you even talking about? Why don't you check that leaderboard again because you're obviously not seeing it straight You're only not at the top of the Euro leaderboard anymore as you've not played R2... -12 to open up is pretty handy, in fact, nobody could better that score. Not bad for someone who's not playing competitively You have been DQ'd multiple times, you did sandbag down to Euro, and you do state that you're not too bothered about the game at the moment quite regularly. Gotta say though, I couldn't really see any accusations flying about, just confirmation that you agree that the short swing is broken with regards to impossible pulls and how they translate in game and into API (not overall dispersion), and unless you almost cheat, you can't compete.

Do have to say, that dropping down the Euro bit is weak. Surprised admin allowed #32 in fedex points, with a 2nd, plus multiple top 5’s and 10’s, to arbitrarily decide that he should be dropped down a tour level.

3.no top 20's in full PGA fields"

I can't argue with what you said as it is all true, but it's not like I sandbagged down and am going to start winning everything. That would be incredibly low and I'm guessing that's robs real problem. Plus that would bring me back to this hellhole. Nothanks. Originally I was going to work on a conforming swing in a place where I could make a cut, but no matter what I do from here it will be frowned upon. But never fear, BCT is the ultimate destination. It is after all the fairest tour of them all

But hopefully to ease the tension I've created over this, I have joined BCT for the sole purpose of having my card rejected. And I'll retake q school in the 4 weeks (maybe) and see where I land with my shiny new swing. I don't want to cause any problems or get flamed or be shunned, but to everyone reading this, you don't know what it's like to be literally incapable of not getting pulled. I mean we all agree I have to do something but what? Apparently I would have been better off with deliberate shanks to fool the api. At least then none of you would be saying all of this. But anyways, sorry guys

Fair play to you for recognising the issue and trying to work through it. I hope you can get it sorted out. Nobody wants to force good players away from the PGA, Euro, or any other tour, as diluting the competition is the absolute opposite of what most people want - a good, fair, challenge.

But anyways, sorry guys Yeah I think you dropped on points accumulation when you didn't finish last week IIRC. Wasn't an admin job was it? You would only have been better off with deliberate shanks to fool the API, if fooling the API, and yourself, is the way that you get enjoyment out of the game. I don't like the fact that you think that you'd be shunned or frowned upon around here, and if you work out your swing to be fair and conforming, the reception you'd get would be exactly the opposite. I started this season in a whole host of trouble with my swing flagging API, but changed, got worse, got a bit better and then got worse again... form, or lack of it sees me where I am today, but I have a swing that reaches the top 95% of the time and I don't think I'm in any danger of being pulled any time soon. Famous last words. I hope you get it sorted out.

This cartoon character decided it would be better to game the restaurant and eat some tacos for free. They sneak in a back way, finding a loophole through the soft tacos roof, as the other rule-following/paying customers look on and watch the disaster unfold. In the end, the character is satisfied with himself(s?), and sees no issues, while leaving a mess behind for others to clean up and regulate as they try to go about their lives in a normal way and just enjoy their golf game... errrr, tacos.
"I feel sick, but it is a good sick, because we won, I think." -Cartoon character's quote from the end of the episode.
Oh hey, back to CC-A I go...

Don't recall seeing anyone like that get dropped down - who we talking about here? If it's Thomas Hudson, he's dropped to Beginner Tour according to his profile. Also, it's hard to track everybody that is auto-demoted across the entire site due to constant WD's. So keep an eye out and let me know, I'll always retro fix it if I feel it's necessary - which I would have done in this case.

Finished up 3 or 4 behind Jacko, so fairly standard placement. Slow start in round 1 did me in, again, as is standard these days. Proud of my -8 2nd round in tough conditions, and generally OK with overall play, just another week clinging as tightly as I can to wgr
