  Hey,

  Nice going on having the very same Legend Bracket Tournament's up for almost 2 months now. I'm certain that makes more players want to play them. I watched the 100 Credit 18 hole take about a week to fill up. Well played.

  Not to mention, I was hit with an ad, a few weeks ago, that was touting 'More' & ' New' Legend RG's. Sounded great to me, however, since that time I've seen L RG's decrease in number, down to 2 at one time.

  Even without the ad, or if it was a mistake, what are you thinking? Making enough cash from ball sales, I suppose? Oh, I'd be remiss if I didn't say this in my own thread. A monthly Legend Open being played on a Par 3 course..... Really all that needs said.

  So sad to think what this place could, and should, be.

  I have posted about this before. "more 9 hole ready go tournaments" was the name of my OP in 2013. It got a "thanks, I'll mention it" from WGTicon.  I reposted in April and May this year and got no response.

  Apparently WGT doesn't have many staff players that are in the legend bracket, which means they can't win those brackets as easily.  Therefore it's of  no advantage to them to create legend bracket tournaments.  Your best bet is to join a c.c. that has a lot of RG tourneys.

  Andy, I'll have to give ya half credit on that one. But, only because wgt created a pop up ad claiming 'more' & 'new' Legend RG's. I mean, why make yourselves look even worse, which I thought impossible til now, by advertising something then doing the opposite?

  Yeah, maybe you get full credit, because after writing it out I see it falls in line with all else done wrong.

  My offer for free consulting on how to make this site bigger than any of you can, obviously, dream still stands.

  Don't you think that the rake is good enough? It diminishes the credits involved by 20% in each comp - that treadmill should be suficient. OTOH, a winner's payout would hardly pay for the player(?)

  CC RGs? Something new?

  (guess: challenge tourneys?)

  I was wondering the same thing, alosso. Would be nice if we could have RG's added to our choice of formats. Maybe have an option to set the amount of players to enter, as well as the entry fee?

  Brackets are just hard to too set. I think each takes at least an hour. Hopefully soon, we'll be able to get them done fast.

  I'll double check on it though

  While you're checking on that icon how about changing the courses that are being played over and over again in them too?? I mean Bandon SHOULD be eliminated completely!! Just my 2 cents worth.
