As many of you know, the time and logistics it takes to successfully run an online career mode for The Golf Club video game are quite significant, but we have been grateful for the support of this dedicated community in helping us to offset the costs of this undertaking each and every season. However, as some of you may have noticed, it has been harder and harder to keep up with the donor badge system to highlight and thank those members who are able to contribute financially. We feel that this program is a good way to recognize those that have committed to TGC Tours in that way, and so we've put some thought into revisions to the system that we'll be rolling out over the next couple of weeks in preparation for Season 5 of the tours.
It's important to note that nothing at all has changed as it relates to our current donor processing. Recurring donations will continue as they have and new donations can still be made at blog.tgctours.com/donate. What HAS changed is the way in which we will recognize your financial commitment to this community, because it is important to us that you be recognized and that your badges are accurate.
And that brings us to the new system for Season 5 and beyond - a donation badge level-up system!
From this point forward, donation badges will no longer be awarded based on how much a member has given in the calendar year or "season," but instead based on the cumulative total they have ever given to TGC Tours. Not only will this help us to stay current on your badges to ensure that they are correct, but it means your badge level will change throughout your TGCT career as your financial commitments accumulate. We are tremendously grateful that we can offset a bit of the costs through the community's financial involvement. Just as before, this donation badge program isn't to single anybody out whether they are able to give or not (it's not required), but we believe that those who are able should be recognized for that commitment as well.
Over the next couple weeks you will start to see badges change in the user profiles as our coordinator is able to get this updated. Here are the levels associated with each donor badge:
BRONZE DONOR - $1-$49 lifetime giving
SILVER DONOR - $50-$249 lifetime giving
GOLD DONOR - $250-$499 lifetime giving
DIAMOND DONOR - $500+ lifetime giving
Again, we thank you for your continued support of our efforts to run the highest-quality online career mode for fans of the TGC franchise. It would be tremendously difficult to do this without your commitment. If you have any questions regarding this program or specific inquiries about your donor badge level, please contact Eric Nesbit (VctryLnSprts) via PM or email (victorylanesports@gmail.com). We're looking forward to seeing you in Season 5!
