  YankeeJim:

  Oh man, you rattled the wrong cage.

  Yep, people who live in Glass houses shouldn't throw stones!  He just opened himself up for further scrutiny.

  YankeeJim:

  You bought your stats with equipment that was a dream when he started.

  Heh, I was a Master @ 64.5 avg when WGT promoted me to Legend L30 overnight in Sept. 2010.  Skipped TM entirely!  Played from the tips for a year with Ping Raptures (190yd 3I) and G10 (250yd driver) and not even a Callaway ball available to help.  I went to the Burner 2.0s in Aug 2011.  Finally got the r11 irons in March 2012.  Took me 4 years to fall through to TL!  So I still got a ways to go to have more birdies than pars. I could always play more red tee CC tournaments!

  YankeeJim:

  I doubt it would be anything close to that fake average you (EGlass3) have now.

  FAKE AVERAGE?  What?  No facts to support that opinion?  You know that drives me nuts! You also figure I'll do the work for you!  Well you're right, shame on you for taking advantage of me! ;o)

  It doesn't take an Einstein (no offence Jim) to see we're dealing with a Red Tee Legend here.  A quick glance at EGlass3's score history tells anyone he plays mostly CC tourneys.  Few RRs in true Legend conditions.

  And I actually wasted more time this morning copying and pasting his score history into Xcel this A.M.

  After weeding out his CC birdie-fest BestofPar5 tourneys, his BestofPar3 tourneys, his Bandon Dunes tourneys, and of course the CTTHs and Blitz scores which don't count towards a RR avg score either, I also tossed a few scores of his played as a TM before he turned Legend mid November last year.  What I am left with is his 104 RRs as a Legend.

  Avg of all 104 RRs: 58.8

  non-CC RRs:   Avg score: 61.5     # of rounds: 32     % of total: 31%  # of sub-60 RRs: 9

  CC RRs:          Avg score: 57.7     # of rounds: 72     % of total: 69%  # of sub-60 RRs: 47

  Hmmm....Some of the CC tourney names with his score: 

  "Kiawah B9 Really Lol" - 25

  "Easy" - 25

  "Average Builder Andrews  (EASY PLAY)" - 25

  "Lower Your Average" - 26

  "Easy Kiawah B9" - 27

  "Another Easy One" - 29

  "Very Calm Merion" - 32 (oops must have been big boy tees!)

  "Beth of Fresh Air" 18 holes - 58

  "Andies Average Buster" 18 holes - 58

  47 sub-60 rounds in CC tourneys!!  I doubt those were heavy winds, tournament greens like the public tourneys.

  I'd say your putting stats are even more questionable now after seeing more than 20% of all your RRs played under CC tournament conditions.

  Bottom line, Yankee Jim's opinion of Eglass3's fake average confirmed by facts, and based on the above, my putting stats are still better than Eglass3's corrupt stats. LOL

  No, ur all sick!

  What was meant to be a thread about a legitimate problem with the game has turned into a "who has the biggest ***" thread !!

  Totally pathetic and totally unnecessary !

  If you all have issues with certain players, show some class and take it to a different thread!

  FIX THE EFFING DOTS!

  That what happens when we don't play enough Liz lol

  40 pages of problems, complaints and information about flash versions, operating systems, with nothing done about it after 3 weeks...you can only say so much before the thread collapses....

  Just concluded a round (Kiawah back 9).  Read the forums to find out if the dots were fixed, by all accounts it was believed that they were not.

  As I began playing, I used a line outside the normal dot line.  Behold! missed the putt by the same distance that i mis-aimed off of the dot line.  Second hole, adjusted 1st putt for slow dots, again missed.  Second putt, made it.  

  My conclusion is that if the dots are not completely in snych they are very close.  I am not the greatest putter, but I can see when things are not right.  my nickle.

  Ain't proud, doing what it takes to get the facts out there. In the immortal words of Jack Webb...."Just the facts, m'am."  LOL

   

  p.s., The cutoff for overnight Legend back then was 65, IIRC. A bad week before, when the averages changed by round, put me just over 65. Took 2 years to get to Legend and I had all the top stuff because of the fire sale WGT had in the Pro Shop just before the change that nobody saw coming.  :-)

  All it is is talk you say good stats can only be bought, that's bs. It's not even worth arguing because no matter what anyone says, you will say they cheated to get their stats and that you were using starter balls and clubs up until a month ago and that you were a legend before you had finished signing up. BS!! so just knock that garbage off. It's pathetic.

  Also regarding your first attack of me about the dots, fmagnets said clearly early on that he had video proof of the difference in dot speeds. As to why people who have 10k rounds played aren't effected, well I know some that were, and some likely have the breaks memorized and weren't that reliant upon them. So go ahead and grab your buddy and dog pile on me I don't give a damn. You're all talk and no proof buddy. Going through someones stats and saying they're too good, just makes you more a clown. Good god what losers to have that kind of time on your hands. I won't be checking back on your megalomaniacal response as I know what it will say already, thanks for the laughs.

  I'm 70 years old and disabled.  Wgt has been a godsend for me because it helps keep my mind sharp and something to look forward to each day.

  Being considered a "Loser" because I have a lot of time is pretty darn offensive!

  Quoted below is all of the interesting and accurate stuff in your post EGlass.

  EGlass3:

  I won't be checking back...

  Reading comprehension is so important.

  You keep right on keeping on and pay no mind to such comments. If it's not sexist comments ,  racist comments ,  it's just plain and simply abusive comments that the A.G.A. nor the U.S.G.A. would tolerate for one minuet...Wish WGT would follow suit.
