  Well, what does average do for you anyway? Other than showing your skill level. I was just being curious about how many of "only your best games" count, as stated by WGT.

  As you know, there are 2 facts on wgt, meter jumping and multiplayer game quitting. WGT started to count just good results to avoid massive quitting of players worried about maintain average down, as well as let players refuse a game when meter jumping becomes a triplebogey.

  Yes, I know that. However, each tier has a set number of games tat count into the average. I was looking for that number as it is different for every tier. Legend it is 400 games. I am up to about 350 games.

  I suppose they set a limit even at Legend to keep open the possibility of putting another Tier in above Legend... Tour Legend?  They have the same conditions as Legends, except they have to dodge small weapons fire with live ammo while they play.

  -whispered-  "Ooh, right in the head... I don't see how he'll avoid a delay penalty here.  He may need to withdraw."

  "Yes, Chip... he's been laying motionless for some time.  He has about 15 seconds to get up and play his shot before he is disqualified.  Then I'm sure a doctor will check on him while the next group plays through.  How do you think this delay hurts his playing partners?"

  The trouble with the average system now, is that if you stay on here and play regularly, you will at sometime reach Legend status whether you are good enough or not. If it was a true average I wouldn't be up here.

  That's it in a nutshell. I play a lot and have my moments but an average of 59.00 is laughable. It terrifies the life out of a lot of players who haven't played with me, then they wonder what all the fuss was about, lol....

  Exactly, perhaps they should bring in a super legend tier. How about something like, "GOLFING MEGA GOD!!!"
