    Correct!

    Per the Guidelines for no-shows, this is exactly what should happen, if the other 3 players are there and ready to go.

    You've waited 10 minutes after scheduled start time. Dazza is next on the Alternate list, and is there and available. Go for it with Eric and Dazza against Rock and Icon.

    Thanks!

    ---------

    And Dazza, just to be clear, you were not "dropped for not logging on for 1 day". The matches were published 7 days ago. I couldn't see any attempts from you to set up a playing time as I've made clear is the process (but I could see forum posts from the other 3 players in your group). Nor did you respond to any PMs about scheduling (in fact, haven't replied to any of my PMs about the tourney at all). So, basically, we had no confirmation from you that you were in fact okay to play at the time you'd indicated. In the circumstances it would have been unfair on the other players to just hope you'd be around... Your reply to me yesterday said you were "waiting to hear from one of [your] opponents as this is the norm for every tournament [you've] ever played on wgt", but my concern is that if everyone did that, nothing would ever get initiated.

    Nevertheless, I'm glad you are around and have been able to step into Jack's shoes. Thank you!

    Konrad and myself got a half against Wes and Fred.  We started very strong, going 2 up after 4 holes thanks to a brilliant birdie on #4 from Konrad.  After 6 holes we were 3 up and guaranteed a tie.

    Then the dynamic due staged a great come back, taking the last 3 holes to earn a half point.

    Obviously a bit of a let down but given the great spirit in which the game was played a half seems like a nice result.

     

    Very well played everyone and thanks for the game, it was a blast.

    Next time I promise to bring some wine Fred.

    Great match guys, Konrad and Mainz jumped on us early, both making clutch putts and shots when needed, it looked bleak for Fred and I down 3 with 3 holes to go, somehow we were able to rally and pull out a halve.

    The scores really aren't indicitive of the play during the game. You guys were a pleasure to play with and were truely goodsportsman......I agree that it may be fitting that the result was a halve
