Could someone please either point me to a link, or briefly explain where WGR ranking matters? What tournaments does it enable or promotions/demotions does it drive. Thanks.

I have proposed an amendment to make it more penalizing to the inactives to my band of brothers on the admin side.. Let me get their feedback..

I would like to point out what I think is a partial error.
Maximum divisor The maximum divisor will be 52
OK, so this is correct, but iirc, it also should read tha it only will take in your most recent 52 events. Will this be taken into consideration? I notice there is one member who is currently at 52 events, with a number of 51s and 50s.
If this isn't taken into account, over 2 years someone could accrue points for literally 100 events and only have a divisor of 52. That is really a big bonus and iirc, not reflective of how it works.
It helps in a different manner to play over 52 events as well in a full 2 year cycle... basically only your last year (if you play every week) would count, and those last events would still have about 60% weight.
As far as where I landed, I will take it, but somehow feels "off". For one example... I just don't know I can be ahead of, let alone THAT FAR ahead of Thomas Oberholzer. But I guess its just because I came across it just a little bit ago and am now processing it.
I really like the last 5 events feature, and a week to week WGR breakdown will be AWESOME! Great work on this.
Now its time to drop this week after one of my worst weeks here.

But I guess its just because I came across it just a little bit ago and am now processing it. Didn't even realize... but now as you say it. I'm fine whatever it is, but it's funny that my last 12-14 weeks (which were said are the most important right now) were my strongest so far on TGCT so far. Finished almost every tournament within the Top25, quiet a few Top10's.

And just to be clear and open with everyone (and to gather more feedback), this is what I'm proposing to the team.
Introducing an additional factor that would adjust a player's FINAL weekly WGR based on their activity... See below:
Played within the last 8 weeks: Player gets 100% of their WGR rating
Played within the last 9 to 12 weeks: Player gets 75% of their WGR rating
Played within the last 13 - 20 weeks: Player gets 50% of their WGR rating
Haven't Played within the last 21 weeks: Player gets 25% of their WGR rating
In this current system Sloaner who lowest WEEK Differential is 27 (hasn't played in 27 weeks) He would get %25 of his points for the week, which takes him to from 24.9229 to 6.230725, ~ 126th on the WGR.
Of course if any players comes back, they would then receive 100% of their points again because their week differential would be 0. I think this allows inactive players to stay on the list, but causes them to be penalized more for their inactivity.
Thoughts!?

I just hope a locked in set of rules are in place soon so that those in the PGA/Euro tours fighting for WGC/Major exemptions by WGR alone know where they stand. The next two WGC events are in March and The Masters is, as we all know, in early April.

It doesn't drive promotions/demotions at all. It only really matters in order to qualify for Majors/World Golf Championship events where only people with a WGR of x or better are invited. Other than that it's just about ego

I like it, got no problem with them being given there points back which they have earned if they return

I think this allows inactive players to stay on the list, but causes them to be penalized more for their inactivity. Thoughts!? I have to agree. Sloaner may never be back but I play every week to get my WGR up. It should be an incentive to play every week. In the current system Sloaner may be in the Top 100 for years to come. Give back to those that are dedicated to not only The Golf Club Game but TGC Tours as a whole.

Small tweak needed, IMO, with the changes I put in in BOLD.
Played within the last 8 weeks: Player gets 100% of their WGR rating
Played within the last 9 to 16 weeks: Player gets 75% of their WGR rating
Played within the last 17 to 24 weeks: Player gets 50% of their WGR rating
Haven't Played within the last 25 weeks: Player gets 25% of their WGR rating
This basically breaks down the "penalty" tiers into 2 month increments with the maximum "penalty" happening after basically 6 months. Tim's proposal had eight week increments, except the 75% tier, which was four weeks. Might have been a specific reason that I don't really comprehend, though.

I think this allows inactive players to stay on the list, but causes them to be penalized more for their inactivity. Thoughts!? Think this is much better fit for TGCTours. In real life the 13 weeks translates to only about 5 or 6 events for players so only doing 8 weeks for TGCTours makes perfect sense as most players play every single week here. Edit: Bobs is even better.
