Dan, I played with you all weekend and that thing about not being one to complain....well....I absolutely agree with you. There is no complaint heard and you are absolutely correct. Actually, all the round ratings will change as the appropriate course info and who was playing which course at which time is not yet totally entered. Sorry about that everyone and it will be fixed as soon as possible.

As for everything else, again I would like to thank all of the competitors for their professionalism and spirit as it made the tournament that much better. Working with Paul is always great as he really strives to put out a great product and I think that the final result was awesome.

That being said, both Paul and I are always looking for ways to improve and be better and make your tourney experience perfect. So if you have any advice, comments or thoughts on things that were good, bad or could have been better, please feel free to share them here or send me a pm, e-mail or whatever so that we can mull them over. This doesn't mean we are taking down 57 trees, but we REALLY do listen to what all have to say. Shoot, before we left the parking lot yesterday Paul and I were already talking about what we ourselves saw that could have been improved on.

So thanks again, congrats to all competitors for fighting the good fight through all the nasty trees and we hope to see you next year!

Scott Papa

Thank you to everyone that came out to play this weekend. I enjoyed seeing everyone and I hope you had as good of a time as I did.
The ratings issue is one of not having the Bud Pell listed in the PDGA course listings. It thinks it is a par 54. I am not sure why that lowers the ratings, but I will be working on that today to clear things up.
As Papa said we are already looking to address some of the concerns about "fair" ways. Not sure we will please everybody, but there is nobody more interested in improving our courses and the game than we are.
We only had 2 scoring errors this year...2 that is amazing, and no questions regarding rules issues, OB's etc in the AM division. Thank you all for that.
Thanks for all the support from the disc golf community, We are starting to see greater support coming in from people that know nothing about the game and will make a huge difference in the growth of our game, our tournaments, and the payouts.
Paul

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the par of a course has nothing to do with the rating. Looks like they're skewed because there is no separation of pools. As if everyone was playing the same course at the same time.

Yep, absolutely true.
It is now fixed. Sorry for any angst for the low ratings or undeserved excitement over the false high ratings, but the trueand accurate ratings are up now. I actually got a full night's sleep last night and it is amazing how much easier things seem this morning.
Thanks for your patience.
Paul
