Well, let's see Loughrey....I had my fiancee call off our wedding and leave less than three months before we were to marry. There was also another incident, on the same day, that involved having to break with an organization I was deeply involved in because of actions that were not mine and thus not my not at liberty to share. As stated in podcasts, I've struggled with clinical depression in the past and this situation drove me to a point that I had to go for a few days to somewhere to get help for a situation that was spiraling downward very quickly and was endangering my life. But I actually stopped and tried to play my first round so that I fulfilled a commitment I made to your tournament. I thought perhaps it might help me take my mind off a situation where life just didn't seem worth continuing to live. And when I got to being more strokes behind than holes left in the second round, I posted on here that because of a life situation I was going to be unable to finish, that I was so far behind I couldn't bring out team to win and to give the win to our opponents. So I informed you and everyone of the situation and didn't just "quit after a few holes." So go ahead and cancel the next round and try to pin it all on me being such a horrible human being. Given what's happening in my real life, I couldn't really give a damn about your online golf tournament for a video game where nobody wins any money and in the end doesn't matter at all for real life. It's just a game chill out, we're all here to have fun and you have taken it way to seriously, probably better that you do leave and not play anymore if your going to be like this.

Whoa! How about both parties go to their corners and cool off. I usually don't comment on these flare ups that occur (a little too often lately IMO) but this is getting too real. It's a game. We come here to escape reality. A buttload of folks volunteer their time here for our enjoyment and we should respect that. These community events are incredible and the time that Loughrey puts into this is amazing. On the other hand RL catches up with us and we need to recognize the fact that we just never know what's going on in a persons life and should respect that as well. Irving had RL kick him in the teeth and didn't finish. So what. 2nd round came and we made up for it. No harm done. Folks if Loughrey calls it quits because he was run off by disrespect....then I say we have a problem. We are all in this together. Let's find some effing way to get along.......and go USA!! Back to your regular scheduled programming, and probably the bashing of my post. Cheers! Time for a beer.

I refresh this thread, every 5 minutes to see if my opponents have posted a score. So far neither of my matches have been completed. But, and this is a big but, I freaking love this tournament/thread just so I can post pictures of fat Americans. In fact the golf just gets in the way. @loughrey please don't cancel this competition just because some people don't show, who cares, post it as a loss, tough sh:te on them. If that means I've wasted 2 hours of my life playing a game against a no-show so be it. Their loss as they shouldn't be involved in the best run community tournaments on tgc.

I'm happy to be a fill in and after I saw some of the previous posts, I'm not gonna go back and read through. Can someone give me the spark notes of where things stand? I'm about to go play my rounds.

Hey Loughrey do you think it may help if a person from each side were to volunteer to be a Captain for the team and it became their responsibility to make sure that people played their rounds? One less thing for you to do. If you have a pool of folks who want to play then the captain could contact one if a player can't finish or show up for a round. Just a thought. Really hate to see this thing go away. Can I get a hell yea for all that want to see this thing thru!!!

Good effort, man. Keep your head up, and the US will pull it out. Don't give up, and especially don't give @loughrey too hard of a time. That dude, from my limited experience, is one of the MVPs of these forums, and we all should appreciate the hard work he puts in for our enjoyment. It's all for fun anyway.
