    I'll sweeten the pot a little bit with a sleeve of balls to the player who makes the most birdies  @ Olympic. Players choice.

    Lovely offer, Shiner! Thanks!

    I'm curious to see if you want to predict how many that will be... I'll guess 5.

    (And can I suggest a tiebreaker of Most Birdies not on par3s, and if still tied, not on par5s? How does that sound?)

    Corwyn:
    Now entering the last day of Round 2, with just 7 players remaining to complete their rounds.

    I may be out of the mix.

    I wasn't able to meet up on Friday with Tim, and was on just a limited time on Sat.

    Sunday (today) is going to be tough for me to get a round in, I might need to ask for a marker if a window opens up for me.

      Regardless, if I'm unable to post a score, it's been fun playing and following the thread...great job Corwyn and Cerino!

    I'll be bummed if you have to drop out. I'll keep an eye out on this thread through the day(Sunday) and see if I can mark for you.

    Wonderful! Thanks Cerino. I was just going to reply to Mike too, to say we can't possibly have you drop out!!! Especially after your kind support for this tourney in so many other places, especially this thread: These guys are putting the fun back into the game (which sadly, got a little hijacked!)

    So, Mike, please just post here whenever you think you have a window, and I'm certain a marker will step forward promptly (and can probably be persuaded to play a fast game too).

    And, thank you, everyone, for being so flexible and willing to help out your fellow players. This spirit of camaraderie is fantastic to see!

    I just finished filling in foe SPINO1's playing partner and boy did we get off on the wrong foot. Right off the bat even before tee off I had a flash crash. First two holes were a disaster and then I kinda of settled down. We both got interrupted by family members ( not making excuses )other than the dang starter putter, but it definately put a strain on our game. It became so frustrating that if I could have I would have quit. I think Stu felt the same way. Anyways it was a great pleasure to have a round with him. Also for the second time on the exact same hole as last week my putter went by itself causing me to bogey the hole. Also like last week I didn't get a fairway screenshot. My bad. And here is the rest of the story:

    Since Hanswurst72 got 1 the last time I figure not counting the Par 3's he is good for a least 6.

    Both the short Par 4's are birdie chances so is 16 and 17

     Thats 4 right off the bat and Hans is an excellent putter to make up the other 2.

    OK kids are bathed and in bed.

    I am free for at least one marking job if anyone needs me.

    Just invite me, I'm practicing but I'm green.

    Edit :-

    Also available if anyone fancies a practice 9 on Olympic.
