trophy's are an interesting notion. I can bring it up.
as for rated... the way system works now, it's impossible to keep stats yet ignore average.. everything will be skewed. But, we are working on many different ideas to see if we can make it work

Why not ranked rounds on best of par 3?
If you can program the system to multiply the score by 1.333 you will have 71.982 (close enough to 72) so if a player scores -4 on front 9 his score will be 23*1.333=30.659 (post like an 31 on his avg).
Just an idea.
Interesting. I'll mention it:)

I hate to say this, but this math only works if you score par. Every other result would need to be multiplied by a different number. If you'd multiply every result by 1,333 and you scored a perfect 9, your avg would be 48, which is 6 strokes lower than it should be.
In order to get it right, you would need to multiply scores on each individual hole. The correct math would be:
HIO = × 2
Birdie = ×1,5
Par = ×1,333
Bogey = ×1,25
Double bogey = × 1,2
etc. Can't be bothered to work out the rest, but you get what I mean.
If you could make calculations this way, the scores on the par 3 course would accurately represent one's avg.
P.S.: The other way to go would of course be to stop calculating avg in numbers like 60 and simply calculate it in X strokesUNDER - EVEN - X strokes OVER mode. That would actually be even more fair. That way a -5 on Oly F9 and -5 on Whistler F9 would count as the same score and not as a 3 stroke difference.
