    I think it would be cool if each club could design there own unique CC course and name it, Even if it is kind of cartoon like lol. Or make them costly to the clubs to design/buy or whatever. I have no exact specifics in mind, lots of creative people on wgt can take it from here with ideas and whatnot. This could open up many other doors such as CC vs CC tourneys on "home grass" so to speak etc :-) What is everyone's thoughts on this?

    WGT, please give us the option of having multiple players in club tournaments.  It shouldn't be that hard for you to do and it would help every club in driving teamwork and camaraderie and make it a lot more fun.  How about it?  

    Great idea, it would certainly help club cameraderie.

    Interesting concept. If not a cartoon course then put there own CC best of course together of your members favorite holes.

    ^ would certainly keep cost down and be a quicker format to get rolling. G1 Dazza!

    I like the concept and it would be a great option to have,, but man, even within my CC of less than 50 players,, it may take a week to get a MP set and running, I shudder to think of arranging a time with 4 players across the world.

    Right about setting it up but what I am asking for is the ability to play multiple players in a CC tourney, doesn't have to be 4 players, could be 3 or 2 even, just give us the ability to do that.  It probably isn't a programming nightmare.  almost every day we play foursomes in stroke play and having the ability to compete in a club CC would make it even more fun, shouldn't be that hard to do really.

    Where are you WGTadmin2, WGT Icon, how about a little feedback from the powers that be?

    I think Icon has covered this in other posts before. Other than the issues of programming multi-player tournament play into the game, another problematic factor is the fact that players could assist each other with shots during the course of a round. Whilst 99.9% of players will act in the spirit of the game of golf, you can be guaranteed that the 0.01% not. As long as money based prizes are available, there will always be people who abuse the system to their own personal gain.

    I personally would welcome this function to be available but unfortunately it'd have to be limited to non-credit based tournaments (which in all honesty really defeats the purpose of having the function in the first place).

    As opposed to being able to save your game at each hole and then practice that hole?(single play)

    Being able to play the tourny ad nauseum.

    Being able to take as long as you for each shot.

    I think all tournaments should be played in a group.
