All right...
Here is the current Leaderboard, with 10luigi10 still to finish (?). I'm not sure what's happening, Luigi, did you find someone? I saw you were Red (busy) a while back, perhaps playing this round? Please update us in the thread. You have until end of business today to get your round played. Note fmagnets' offer for this evening.
In the Top Bracket, all players have now completed their rounds...
As was stated in the opening post, any ties for placings will be resolved per standard WGT rules (final 9, final 6, final 3 holes, then 18th, 17th etc if still tied). Sadly, the tie-breaker has come into effect, given all the 64 scores.
Here is the link to the scorecards for easy reference.
Top Bracket:
1. Dazza501 61
Hanswurst72 61
CerinoDevoti 61
4. b0geybuster 62
fmagnets 62
6. Aahna 64 (6th by virtue of better back 9 of 31, and better last 6 of -3)
7. Corwyn 64 (7th by virtue of better back 9 of 31, and worse last 6 of -2)
-------------------
8. sebicu 64 (8th by virtue of worse back 9 of 33, but better last 6 of -1)
9. Solid1 64 (9th by virtue of worse back 9 of 33, and worse last 6 of E)
10. Ragefire 65
Wesdogg75 65
12. oneeyedjohn 67
13. ColumbusStorm 68
14. gk21al 69
So, in the top bracket, the top 7 survive the cut, with the other 7 players dropping into the Lower Bracket for the 3rd Round.
I feel terrible that the tie-breaker rule has to settle the cut-line in the top bracket, and worse, that I seem to be the beneficiary. I was certain that I'd blown it, with a dreadful bogey on the last... but as far as I can work out, it seems that I'm the lucky one to just scrape by and make the cut, based on a better back 9 than sebicu and solid1. Bad luck to the two of you. (I do feel this is an awfully cruel way to settle a tourney. We gotta talk about this, Shiner!!!)
Lower Bracket:
10luigi10 remains to play his round (please indicate a time you'll be online, to make it easy for a marker to connect with you) ... with 66 as the target score for the top spot (which gains promotion to the Top Bracket), and other top 5 of 12 10 surviving the cut for the next round.
1. LeGeNdCrUsHeR 66
-----------------
2. MBaggese 67
3. lvietri 70
4. borntobesting 77 (4th by virtue of better back 9 of 37)
5. filmslayer 77 (5th by virtue of worse back 9 of 38)
-----------------
6. rmchangin 77(6th by virtue of worst back 9 of 39)
-----------------
7. Why9 79
8. Daboofness 80
9. hyena64 91
So, right now, all the 77s will make the cut, but if 10Luigi10 can shoot better than 77, then the tie-break will come into effect. And, LC is still the front-runner for the promotion spot.
I think all this is right, but I'm open to being corrected. Someone else should certainly verify this (as I'm the one who appears to be benefitting from the tie-break rule).
