  Oakmont no longer available?

  ....so where is the replacement for it?

  They probably lost the rights when they allowed us to use Oakmont holes in CC custom courses. They knew the owners of Oakmont were very strict on how they used their holes.

  You're kidding us aren't you WGT? 

  Oakmont is gone?

  I'll reserve judgement in case it was just one of the monkeys leaving his banana peel in the server caused a short circuit..........

  So I wonder what that means for Custom courses that used Oakmont holes.....

  We have a premium tourney running there, I wonder if it can still be played.

  Ok, the course loaded, so it seems that tourneys, that were already in place, can be played out, cause the course loaded. Couldn't play it though, cause I'm at work. Hopefully the score will register.

   

  But, WGT must've known this for over a month, cause there was no monthly and no CTTH monthly sweeps created on Oakmont.

  So , as I see it.   WGT f**ked up when they allowed us to use the Oakmont holes for course builder courses and now the course is gone.

  Yep. Part of the deal with allowing WGT to use Oakmont was that the course wouldn't be butchered to create the ba$tard (oh feck off, it's a real word as well you know, bloody censors) courses known as Best Of.

  Seems someone forgot this while making courses available for custom courses.

  I hope that person is no longer employed by WGT.

  Hi,

  Our agreement with the course has ended, so it’s no longer playable on WGT.

  Thank you Icon.

  Was this a previously agreed date to end the contract or was it enforced due to a breech of the conditions on WGT's part?

  I'm assuming the latter but appreciate you probably aren't at liberty to discuss it.

  Damn  : ((

  So long Oakmont, you're really going to be missed.
