Stupid mistake on my part. I played 3 of the rounds and then entered them in the wrong order. It wasn't like I was anywhere near close to being in the running, but it was disappointing to get the news.
Here's the thing though - I really like it! I'm sort of a golf purest when I play in real life (no mulligans, play it where it lies, etc.). Signing a wrong scorecard in a real tournament gets you the boot. I knew the rules and screwed up. Nobody to blame but myself!
I have a lot of respect for the people running this tour. I can't imagine all the hours they pour into this to make a fun game even more enjoyable. I'll never be good enough to compete for any weekly events, but I like knowing that I'm part of a group that plays by the rules and enforces them.
I'll be extra careful from this point on!

Integrity -- thanks for exemplifying it in a world quickly running out of it, Yaters. Good luck this week.

been there, done that. in fact I've done it on another tour this week.
I love the fact that if I sign for the wrong score I get penalized just like IRL.

I read this when you first posted it. Then when I went to submit my scores, I felt a lot more nervous than usual inputting them. After I submitted the third round I thought to myself "Oh crap, did I sign my scorecard my full name or just the first few letters??!" Since I usually use auto-complete to put in my name, it saves me the hassle of writing it each time. Now I'm going to be paranoid inputting scores! Thanks a lot!
