  Hi,

  I've played more than 500 ranked games,(99 % tournaments) I'm still Legend.... I scored 27 this morning and my average don't change (or sometimes 0.01 down)....

  So can you tell me where is the interest to continue this game ?  I want to grow up = can't !!!!   posted a score of 27 and nothing changes !!!  playing for nothing is exactly the same.....

  Except USA Canada and GB, we're poor in videos, and many others things... We're not on the same scale....

  Are those 500 ranked rounds as a Legend?  I see that you have near 1300 ranked rounds in total, but it comes down to how many as a Legend all in itself of which you need 500.

  That's the only reason I can think of that would stop you from making TL.

  Par 3 and Par 5 rounds don't count towards the 500

  +1 C

  A lot of these players think playing the par 5 course counts toward the next tier.

  Negative..... if the course does not change your average is does not count toward the next tier.

  Seeing plenty of this too. Play hundreds of rounds on these courses and when find out..... totally pizzed off.

  Think get average down..... and beat the par 3 and 5 courses to death until tier up.

  Not happening. :)    What is happening though..... is many balls disappearing for absolutely nothing.

  The 27 was at BPB. You would think a 54 would move a 58+ average. I think Hazen's onto it but a 27 not moving the average is a mystery.

  True, but you won't see some of those changes in the third decimal.

  In an almost saturated average, the change would be (58+ - 54) / 500 which is less than 5/500 = -0.01. Thus it might still hide in the rounding to two decimals.

  Saturated, it may be different - perhaps. Having a 62 to kick out means 8/500: -0.016 which shows up with certainty.

  In either case, the number of rounds as a Legend is the only thing that would explain why the OP isn't a TL yet.

  With the average, it's the only explanation. Perhaps wasted time and GB's playing all those Par 5 rounds? Obviously, this member will be a TL and has the game.
