would not bother me to see the pair up go to 72 hole tourney every week.
but I believe there are just too many folks who don't got the time.
sort of the way when you see MP round posted in the lobby and 95% of the time 9 hole rounds.
cubbs and I have created a voice chat room on steam to use for our pair up rounds with the hope we could get some more
people to join to have a place to get some alt shot rounds going on if you and David would like to get into it just send me a friend request on steam and I will send you guys invites, this is also an invite to anyone else who may want to get into some alt shot matches. that last room I had created was good for alt shot and I know you guys were on the member's list for that room but you just never came in so you missed out on those and since I have deleted that room to start a new one from scratch due to having some members in it that were a real PITA. so far it is just cubbies and myself and queenofthegreen will be joining us when her RL golf season is over I will also make it so any members there will be able to invite other people into it. I figure the more people in there the more chance it is to get some good matches going on. and BTW this is a voice chat room with 4 sub rooms.

Could we change the pair up tourney to be 3 rounds of 18 holes each? Maybe thats too much golf for 1 week?
Really, I would just like to see more alt shot action...
Are talking about all three MOP's are just using Alt-Shot?

I was just suggesting it as a way to play more alt shot. Maybe someone has another idea to get some more alt shot tournies going?

makes no sense to cut out the scramble and the greensomes there again it would only be catering to the top 10%
percent of the players, where the scramble and greensomes mode may give others a chance to win. the average player here just has no chance
and I believe it would only stop some people from playing. to me, it only looks like you are trying to insure yourself closer to the top all the time.
I know I know I have heard it here so many times I don't care if I win, lol what a hoot if you don't care about winning then why would you even play in the tourneys. hell like I have said before there is also a luck factor here and I believe some of you folks just got more dumb luck than the majority of the players. here is a for instance, I was just playing my divisions round 2 under coming to the 9th green I had a short flop and I slammed dunked it
and I popped back out, and off it went to even a longer shot and I ended up bogeying the hole now that is my luck. to be honest, I think all you big-headed folks who are always at the top just got better luck you are no better skilled than anyone else who has put a lot of time in at playing this game.
here is something else to think about the year is getting ready to flip and as it is now we only have 176 people playing tourneys and if you look through that good maybe only 70 or so that play them regularly I think if I were you admin guys I would be thinking about ways to get more people into the tourneys and not making things harder and that will not draw anyone give that some thought as it is going now we will be even smaller next year.
look at all the people in the game that over a years time have less than 10 rounds in tourneys that counted so they just get a good tourney or 2 in and then they just hold a spot in the rankings yet you still see these peoples names in the lobby all the time. I myself think you guys need to figure out a way to get that stopped as we all know these are just folks that need to feed their egos so they can look at the rankings and say look I am 7 in the rankings and be proud of themselves. I think you guys should be thinking about ways to attract more to the tourneys rather than making them harder.

For the record I like every form of the alt-shot. And, I like that its mixed up and different from week to week.
Not trying to change anything. Really just suggesting that we add to it.
