Tiebreaker Rule

  I think this needs to be changed.

  Imagine in real golf if 4 players are tied at the end of the event. The commissioner says "this guy wins because he birdied hole 14 while you guys didn't... LOSERS!" Yeah I know that sounds so stupid it wouldn't even be a possibility of happening.

  My suggestion is a mini tournament tiebreaker with a 12 hr clock. Play as many rounds needed until a real winner is established.

  This probably isn't needed for ready-go's but it definitely is for the big tournaments.

  This type of card or computer tiebreaker is very common in real golf. In our club, only the club championship is decided by a real play-off.

  And, how would you bring the players in question back to the game, world-wide?

  Maybe 24 hour clock.. Not hard it would just be like any other tournament.
