  I won't play them because I detest Merion

  !

  YankeeAirPirate:

  I did observe that one of the recent 100CR brackets that included Merion in the lineup took over 3 days to fill.

  Have to be a tiered bracket..If it was tierless, then it might have been the 13th rendition of a bracket having Merion you must have seen.

  I like to see Merion in the first round of a bracket...gives a bit of leeway  don't have to shoot-7 to -9 to advance at times.  JMHO

  Nope. There's a tierless bracket that has been sitting on 7 entries for two days now. Merion is the second course in the bracket.

  There's just 1 tierless 9 hole 100c bracket i can see.. Its sitting on 7 entries alright but the courses are BoB,Bop3,PB and Oly. 233429.....

  Or it could be that the 9 spots filled up in the 2 hrs between our posts ;)

  New 9 hole tierless 100CR bracket. First noticed at 4:00 PM Eastern (USA) today, 20 Dec. Zero sign-ups as yet. Merion in the #3 slot in the lineup. Tournament ID 233640.

  The Legend 100C bracket I first posted about yesterday, that had three signups, is now up to five signups. Tournament ID 233558. Merion in the #2 slot.

  So, if someone, who likes playing RG's, learns to get good at Merion they could clean up.

  Free money! (not for me obviously, I'm crap at golf)

  So from today

  233640 with Merion fills in - 1 hr 35 min

  233596 w/o Merion  - 1 hr 53 min

  233573 w/o Merion - 1hr 6 min

  233533 w/0 Merion  -2 hr 8 min

  233493 w/o Merion    -2 hr 14 min

  233459 w/o Merion- 3 hr

  Looks like the one with Merion does fill quicker in general... I guess add Merion in all brackets!!

  I guess you didn't read the full thread.. They'd be waiting till the 12th of neverday(thanks alosso) for the RG to fill up!
