EntropiaBones: The method to move from one tier to the next , is not based solely on these variables
The minimum number of rounds (at a specific level) and average (required to level up) is really only relevant to those players that play strictly ranked (or scored) rounds.
I believe it is common knowledge, at this point, for most players that have been playing since the "flash" days, that the criteria is different with coin room players or a player who plays both coin rooms and ranked rounds. As to the specific criteria as to these players, no one really knows.
Yes I have seen this explanation in other threads , but since it is a recurring message I was pointing this out to the poster.
I plan to continue in my coin room journey , hopefully till TC and with the same criteria I have set from the beginning with the free balls and not adding any RR , to get data on what actually is needed to move to the next tier. The 26 RR accounted for on my stats sheet are very early on in the process , before Tour Master and possibly before Master ranking.
Currently I have 52 completed 9 hole rounds , with a score of 29 or less , and will post on my profile page when I achieve Champion tier. Of course I do not know what is needed to make the next tier , but without data we will never have a clue. It may be none of what I record has any bearing on the tier process , but since others do not have the answer , I will make an attempt to find some correlation.
