Hi Mark... adjudication required please..
Playing RD 4, and on the Par 4, 10th hole with a current score of -1.
Can't recall my exact position near the edge of the green, after playing 2 shots... however, I saved the shot that caused some issue.

I never clicked the meter to start, but lo and behold it began... and as I never registered to click the meter, it registered no power. What then happened, was the ball went backwards, off the green/fairway, down the rough surrounding the green and OB. My 3rd shot, now began as a drop and I'm suddenly forced to play my 5th shot, halfway down the rough slope surrounding the green. The screenshot below shows my drop position.

I wasn't that far away either lol....
So, i tried entering the Chat room as I saw Mark listed as in there. Unfortunately, no answer from yourself Mark, and Barry (DCI), simply informed me to finish my round. That... wasn't as easy as it sounded. I took a 7 on this hole.... and then on the 11th Tee - quit.
These things have a habit of affecting your game no matter what, and I didn't wish to end the 4th round this way.
So, I'm in limbo and awaiting any adjudication that is necessary...
Thanks.
