Yep, not sure why people get so offended by others playing other tours. It is how they get better, maybe they should give the concept a go. There was a thread somewhere on the CC boards about this. Someone was really fired up about players outside his tour playing the tournament. "...I don't know why all those idiots insist..." and I stopped reading right around there. Odd thing to have an issue over in my perspective. The only leaderboard that matters is the one here on the website. When I first started I was on the CC tour and would use the Ghosts of the best players to understand (or try to understand) how they approached holes. I learned quite a bit. The only issue I'd ever have is when someone that is on a better tour wants to rub it in the faces of the players like that one chuckle-bunny did here weeks past. "If I had played I would have beaten all of you! Nah Nah Nah" - that's just lame. Yeah, not only did I not stop reading that one but I replied. Ha! I think it was "idiots that shoot -14/-15" or something like that.
You make a good point though, the use of a better players ghost ball alone should be welcome. Unfortunately, it seems that one person was more concerned with not seeing his name higher on his single platform leaderboard.

lol at the cut sitting at -12 right now.. too bad it'll be lucky if it doesn't double in the next 48 hours.
I'm still going with my -20 is the cut and I'm going to say -55 as the winner.. I don't think it'll go quite as low as we once thought.

Another week and another disaster ha ha. On holiday after a weekend away for my 40th. Newcastle United someone managed to make a great weekend even better. I wasn't able to follow their win up with anything near what's required on here. Bogey, bogey start didn't help, I didn't actually par a hole until the 11th. 3 bogeys, a treble bogey on the 9th after I went in the water, 5 birdies and an eagle. Nothing so eventful after the 10th. -4 which it pretty laughable. One of these weeks I will get my form back! Some weeks I wish I had weeks like your recent run at least I'd get a nights sleep on Thursdays haha. Keep plugging away dean it'll come hopefully coinciding with when my reign of terror commences with the course selections ! Now now moeslorkman. I've actually been on the bubble 3 of the 5 weeks I've missed the cut so far. In fact one of my results is T69 so I'm guessing someone who made the cut didn't finish or had a DQ. I was well off the pace last week and knew I was home. I was more relaxed for the rest of the week so I know what you mean! My -12 on the 2nd round this week looks like I may finish higher than expected and I will be watching the waiters too. I know I won't make it at -16 but at the moment I'm still hanging in there.

I see no problem in people playing other tours. The leaderboard on the site is what counts as others have said. Also, I normally switch between all players and friends views in the game. I can judge how well I'm doing against friends. This is especially helpful when I'm not in the top 40!!

Wasn't haven't a go or passively trying to knock you just incase you took it that way! Im shocked by the cut line at the moment to be honest I thought the Line would of been around -22. Seems ive over estimated! I noticed that last week feel bad for the 2 lads that were up from CCA finishing T69 and not getting the promotion as it turned out! And you of course. Hopefully you make it will result in me having a better finish .

I still think the cut will be sub -20.

I must clear something up . I have not gone to the dark side please no need to pm me asking if I'm ok. I was sick over the weekend and decorating the house last night and have coaching tonight I will put up my scores tomorrow! Thank you for your concern. Moe "Never a Watcher" Slorkman Come off it Moe, the only ailment you had was eye strain from watching the leaderboard and the spoiler scores in this thread, you only posted your scores as people are on to you I remember before we joined TGC Tours you used to be a watcher in the small tours we would create and Nantez and myself would always pull you up on it. Old habits die hard Moe isn't that what they say, ha ha God help you if you ever post scores on "Watcher day"

It'll still be around -20 I think with so many players still remaining to score but as of this moment I am in ha ha! I'm not too bothered about not getting in a T69, these things happen.

I must be ultra bored then as I sometimes play the euro / pga / web / cc before the end of each weekend. Yep, not sure why people get so offended by others playing other tours. It is how they get better, maybe they should give the concept a go. It used to kind of bother me a bit when I was in CC and you would get disheartened looking at crazy scores on the in game leaderboard and would make mistakes chasing a guy that wasn't even on your tour and it does create some confusion over scores posted. I just ignore the in game leaderboard now between holes and am only concerned with the Web board at the end of the day. It doesn't bother me now at all that guys play other tours for practice, actually I wish I had more time to do it myself as there have been a lot of good courses on all the tours that would have been nice to play and it will only make you better for doing it.

Doing some rough maths only the lads on -24 or better are mathematically in the watcher safe zone (baring the extreme watchers which can't be judged). So Watcherday will be interesting.
