Talked to Penfold on Sunday about this year's tournament. He wasn't sure if we were having one since he hasn't had any time to make any prizes. I told him prizes don't matter and we should do the tournament anyway.
Anyone disagree with that?
Also, I don't know about anyone else, but this season has flown by way too fast, and I don't want to spend a huge chunk of time on Saturday on rat pucking. I was thinking about something like 6 or 7 holes would be a good go of things. What is everyone elses opinion?

What?!?!?!! No Prizes?!?!?! Are you out of your mind, I want huge copious cash prizes for ALL places, a scarlett rat, a green jacket, signing bonuses and massive endorsement contracts. 36 holes on Saturday, 36 holes holes on Sunday. I'm taking this show on the road people, we're talking WORLD tour.
Now clean off your screen, upright your chairs and thump yourself in the noggin. No tournament because no prizes. BAH!!!!! Puckus Sumare. Puck we must.

Is tournament play like what we did in front of the Stagger Inn Sunday? Where we pucked through without waiting for the away person? If so I think that would be a great idea, We could move quickly through the course and got a lot of pucking done in a short time, leaving more of our dwindling season for the pubs, I mean the other attractions. ;D

Yes, that is tournament play. It does move things along a lot faster, though it isn't as easy for the newbies. Taking turns is more for relaxed play, and when helping others to learn. Tournament play is when you want to keep things moving and cover more holes faster. Also it is more chaotic and interesting at times. It also doesn't tie up the lanes as long, and allows the patrons to flow on busier days.

I just felt weird hosting even an un-official tournament without any prizes! Especially after a season with such low amounts of pucking due to the nasty weather.
But, since we have so many puckers who are understanding about my situations this season, I'm more than willing to host another un-official tournament for the bragging rights alone!
Besides, we created a new hole last weekend and it needs to be played again.

Huzzah
I would like to see a hole from the Drift inn area to the magician statue, I don't think that would interfere with any acts, and it would help connect the old world with the new world a little.

We have a hole from the statue to the crossroads in the middle of the game area there. Only thing is, we can only use it when there is no Tortuga show going on.
As for to the Drift Inn, there ae way too many shows going on that stage to have any kind of opening to do a hole there.

It would be Saturday, so we can talk about it on Sunday.
I vote 11:30, as there is a glassblowing show at 12. Remember, we had to skip that hole last week, when we met at noon, because the show going on.

11:30 it is then. Plenty of time to grab a cookie and some incense. Someone might want to escort me though. You know, to make sure I get there.
