  i am a master with a 64.95  avg. and i recently talked to someone who is a tour master 

  (not sure about avg) and he said he only  has to be -3 to drop his avg .6 where as i have to be -4 to drop my avg .5 so my question is how this whole avg thing works?

  Someone else work, I just copy/paste:

  • When your average score is equal or smaller than 100 you go from hack to amateur.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 80 you go from amateur to pro.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 72 you go from pro to tour pro
  • When it is equal or smaller than 67 you go from tour pro to Master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 63 you go from Master to Tour master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 61 you go from Tour master to legend 
    
  • When it is equal or smaller than 60 you go from Legend to Tour Legend*

  and

  • you need to play at least 5 ranked rounds as hack before reaching Amateur
  • you need to play at least 10 ranked rounds as amateur before reaching Pro
  • you need to play at least 20 ranked rounds as Pro before reaching Tour pro
  • you need to play at least 25 ranked rounds as Tour pro before reaching Master
  • you need to play at least 40 ranked rounds as Master before reaching Tour Master
  • you need to play at least 50 ranked rounds as Tour Master before reaching Legend
  • You need at least 100 ranked rounds as Legend before reaching Tour Legend
    

  Notice that those minimal number of ranked rounds are also the number of best rounds used to compute your average in that particular tier. So if you are Tour Master for example, your average is computed with your best 50 ranked round (that's why you need at least 50 rounds to move up).

  Basically when you move up in a tier your scoring average get's reset.  Because of this a player may see bigger swings, up or down, in their scoring average.  This will stop once their ranked rounds become saturated.

  I could be wrong, I usually am, but isn't it 500 Ranked Rounds to move from Legend to Tour Legend? Not that I'm anywhere near this Tier, being but a humble Master myself.

  You're correct, F.

  This

  HWei:

  You need at least 100 ranked rounds as Legend before reaching Tour Legend

  is an information which is wrong for most Legends, safely for those who arrived at Legend tier after August, 2012. It has been valid only for seasoned Legends at that time, but apparently it will be copied unchanged infinitely.

  For all Legends, it's at least 500 ranked rounds to become a Tour Legend.
