sounds good, just not this saturday! Yeah, definitely not this one. Probably 3 or 4 weeks from now, if I had to guess.

Well the tour would go live for all platforms when Griffin publishes it, can't see why the PS4 streamers like Tim Russell and Cairnsy couldn't take part......or take a screenshot when you get to -100 and post it on here. I'm sure as Rod suggested if it was on PS4 then the big guns would play as they're usually all playing in a party at some point over the weekend. I followed your Twitch to help get you to 100 Rod, by the looks of it, I have 7 people (Yaters, Naldy, Canuck, plus Jules, Chaoz, Nemecyst, and HappyToDie) who are interested, which is about the max number of extra competitors I wanted. I've also gained four followers since posting this (thanks to Dale, Graham, Daniel, and Chris, by the way), which was my main concern. Chris, that's a good idea. I had considered something like that, but I thought it might overly complicate things. Besides, those guys (Tim and Bryan) have TGC on XB1 as well, so there's no reason they couldn't join in anyway. I only suggested those two as they stream and you'd have the added bonus of the PS4 players ghosts and chat in the live stream....or cursing I should say with those Euro foul mouths

Are we allowed to have between-round Overwatch breaks? Go for it, if you want. Good luck winning the fabulous cash prize, though. You'll fall way behind the rest of us. I will fall behind once you guys all birdie #1 and I three-putt my way to a bogey.

It depends on when it is for me. Busy few days behind and in front of me.
Also, I suck at the game, so will that hold me back?

Lots of folks to respond to here... @chrashbird, pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure what you mean about having the PS4 ghosts and chat in the stream. Can you explain that a bit, please? CGilb, ok, you're in. That makes 9 (if everyone plays, that is), so I think that's enough people. I appreciate the response from everyone. jacobkessler, it'll be at least July before this happens, so I hope you'll be less busy by then. As far as playing goes, I don't think you meet all the requirements I put in the OP. I'll explain why those are there in a bit. You are more than welcome to watch the stream, though, and I hope you do. Also, you'll have a chance to win a prize if you tune in, so there's added incentive. clayg3, you're more than welcome to play the tour I will set up if you'd like. However, you won't have a chance at the $25 prize that goes to the winner. The only reason I'm not opening this up to everyone is because of how I set up the event. The winner is the one who reaches -100 first in terms of time, so the easiest way for me to determine who wins is to have everyone start at the same time. If we're all on XB1, I can see their scores, but more importantly we can chat in real-time, so someone in the party can tell me once they hit -100. If you're on a different console, then it'll much harder for me to monitor it. I guess I could ask nicely for API data (like Fuzion does for speed golf), but I still think it'd be an extra complication that I don't want to deal with. If you have any ideas on how to include everyone while still maintaining this format, then I'd love to hear them.

I'll be watching, then! I was just skimming through to see if anything popped out, and $25 stood out more than the actual requirements, lol.

snubbing the cc tiers lol why don't they have a chance at the $25 so this is only for the better players I didn't want the party to be too crowded (I think 12 is the max anyway), so I tried to limit the field to players who have a chance of winning. To be completely honest, I don't think there's a CC player who could win this, given the strength of the players competing. That's why that requirement is there.

I am a CC-DE (inbetween) and I would have no chance against the Number 3 player in the WGR, so now that I look at it, it makes sense. Also us CCers have the chance of winning for simply watching a twitch stream. Score!

Doubt anyone will be able to beat you with your speed golf record Ah, what the heck, you're definitely capable, so you should play for real. That'll make an even 10, and it's probably inevitable that someone will have to drop out. You're the last one, though, so no more registrants, please. I sure hope no one can beat me; I'd rather not be out $25.
