  Everyone loves an award! -- Allegedly.

  I just got an award for racking up a double-bogey. It was called the "Get Down" award - and to top it off it was the GOLD one!

  It will sit with my 50 or so other awards. I cant keep track of them all and I am not some "legend/master" player by any stretch of a fellers imaginationables.

  Yancy suggests swapping out less trophies for the ability to upload your own avatar head - which I have argued for before in these arenas.

  It might be a good idea to space them out better.  The spacing is too exponential right now... needs to be more linear.  Noobs are bombarded by awards, but vets rarely see them.  I don't think I've gotten one in two weeks.

  For example, Get Down is currently 1, 10, 25, 50, 100, 500, 3,000, but it would be better if it were 25, 75, 250, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000.

  An intersting and arguably sound take from the CHRman as one might expect.

  It seems to Yancy that maybe they should be 'given' with some oversight - I not know how that happens - and I got nothing else about those arenas.

  When I rocked the 3-foot bender putt home for double-bogey 6 on what this common man understands is considered an easy 4 par hole - I was not pleased and just as I said you got to keep on Yancy (with 2 holes to finish out the 9 hole round) , the WGT trumpet troop let out their baam baams and I got an award that I do not know anything about. Are their satirical awards?  I know - a feller can look that up themselves right here and I will get to that on the asap.

  Maybe a all-binding rule that if are playing golf on wgt and you card a 2 over on a hole then all shots that led to the carded double bogey do not count to an award. So, lets say Yancy is on that par4 hole that I carded a six. Even say Im in the bunker allready with 5 shots taken but on shot 6 -- I hole out a drama-laden crazy sand shot and that one shot was the last in the count for an award. I proposable that It would not count in the countf or this/any/all award. Only holes where you score Par or better should count to awards. Im just ramblin on and such at this point - no coffee left, but:

  Now the yancyman is curious who is the all-time - at once - trophy holder - or do a bunch of legends have won the complet set which Im rememberable at about 450 awards and then allegedly you got a complete set.
