Just submitted something for Straight II... saving my mulligans for later. |

Im already too late for it... as are about 1/3rd of the golfers... the first hole had a lot of Mulligans.
ETA
Vlado started a cool side-side challenge.... pick your DPC Golf Fantasy team... 4 picks, 1 sub, best aggregate score wins. |
Yeah, but I figured I already missed the first week so it wouldn't be fair to pick members now. Plus I already get annoyed enough at my Fantasy football players, I don't need to spread that love to DPC. :P

I'm up for that, though I'm confused on why you have to enter every week: without mulligans, any week you don't enter is gonna give you a 0% finish and a cataclysmically low score for that hole. Ain't that punishment enough? Jejeje⢠Either way, count me in...

That is a good point, the rule is useless. :)
Add all nine % finishes and divide by 9!
I think I thought it was a good idea, because at the end of 9 weeks, I would only have to post those who completed all challenges, instead of checking all entrants. |
If you want, I can build a column into the spreadsheet to determine the best overall percentage finishes for the side challenge. This would not take handicaps into account though. |

OK, I've used my two mulligans (we got two, right?). Now it's time to get serious. Too bad my Basic Challenge entry sucks. :-/

I'm in!
I liked my original shot much better, but it just didn't fit either of the challenges, though it fits generic lines. Go figure!
Anyway, I have no clue how my last minute entry will do. At first I thought "oh cool!! Awesome!" then I thought "definitely not awesome. What was I thinking?"
So, it will either do great, lousy or middle of the pack. How's that for a prediction? :D |

I'm in ... once again ... thanks to the push from my wife ... I got to stop leaving these to the last minute! |
|

Watching TV, oblivious to the fact it's Tuesday and I'm already one mulligan in.
So I jump up, create a five minute masterpiece, and anxiously anticipate a score commensurate with my effort.
WooHoo...

Already took my two mulligans, so had to run home and shoot something...anything...to prevent being a total loser!
My shot is so-o-o lame, but it's there! ;) We'll see what happens. I still don't know how to work GIMP, so this should be interesting!! :P |

Well, I get a fat 0 for par this week. I thought 0-5% would result in a -1, but you need a +5%, just missed. |
|
|
09/30/2009 05:09:20 AM · #385 |
This is a tough competition. My photo scored a 6.5, but i think i only get -1.
Oh well, next week i will get my max possible -4 when i win the twisted challenge :) |

Ok, you've got me curious now. I know nothing about fantasy leagues, so that's why I didn't sign up. But since I haven't looked too carefully at the results, I went through and picked based on the criteria I would have used before this started.
So I picked 5:
ecce signum
bear_music
vlado
jcar
bspurgeon
(I haven't figured out yet what the score would have been. I'm going to go do that now. I can just start at the 2nd hole, if you want.) But the question is, people have picked a sub. How do the subs work? Are they only there if someone doesn't enter, or can you sub them out before a challenge?
If it's just too late, period, that's fine too. I just went for people whose handicap is lower than it should be, and who can bring on some major upsets.
ok, without understanding the subs, I'd be at -7 |
Ok, can we pick more than one sub for future challenges? I had two mulligans on my team this week: ecce signum and jcar
Otherwise, if I understand the scoring, I think I have:
[user]bear music[/user] -7
vlado -5
bspurgeon -1
for a -13 week. Not bad for a team down one!! Great job guys!! |

I thought they rounded the scores last week... |

Yeah, but they ain't gonna round 'em so less than 5% is a birdie... That would be my sense of it anyway...

(Unless someone pulled a Melethia this week, I think I'm still winning in the highest score challenge.) |

Nope, actually went and checked this time (was too lazy earlier this morning. Looks like everything is rounded. VitaminB had a 77 last week with a handicap of 74.8. The difference of 2.8 was rounded up and he got a -1 for the hole. |

Dang, this is such an EASY course! Next time, we should have this tourney at Winged Foot, separate the players from the duffers...

I've used my two mulligans as well. Dropped out of my September side challenge as well. Just not feeling it. |

Sadly, the challenge choices during the Golf tourney have been so uninspirational to me, so this is really hard.
note to those that know how the nubmers work. My shot is tanking HARD this week. I'm in the weeds big time! Melethia and I may tie for highest score if I don't beat her... |

I just would like someone to join me in double digits over par. Please? :-) |

A little positive news! Scored a little below par and it looks I'm going straight to a real par (heavily ignoring the X, but that's no golf) |

2nd Hole Update:
//www.jonathaneger.com/DPCOpen.htm
jomerner is still in first with -17
ericwoo and soon in second with -12
tfarrell23 and Bear_Music in fourth with -11
jomerner had the best week with a -8.4, but danculwell also had an amazing with with -8.0
Also... please ignore the column on the far right... I tried to hide it, but it reappeared on uploading. I hope to have it fixed by next week. That column will show the best overall average without handicaps factored in.
