  Good show 11BS2

  Made the fixes you pointed out, relevantly, I might add, however there is still one problem with the picture as it stands.

  And the Catharmonican Church of the Multiverse was born.

  txzdave should write all of our sacred texts.

  This could be bigger than scientology and worth $$$$$$$$$$$$s!

  After playing only 51 ranked rounds Habu has it all figured out . All of this mumbo jumbo reminds me of the old saying , " If you cant dazzle em with brilliance baffle em with bull shite.. Heres how you play the game habu . Take the ball put it in the hole using the least amount of strokes . Do that every hole you play its not complicated . You dont need a spreadsheet calculator to know the algorythm of a farting elephant . 

  All you need will be basic math skills some decent clubs + a ball and some good skills . You can trash everything else . Play well have fun and good luck with your game .

  Himehabu:

  While I'm relatively new to WGT (months), I cant neglect but to comment on the perceived error in physics on the Greens. 

  From what I see, the initial attack of the ball is not calculated starting at 0,but instead is already being acted upon by the force of the tilt of the green.  

  if I am on a green tilting to the left or right, hitting across the slope,   the initial hit on theball is already rolling significantly down the slope where my "aim point' I way off of where the ball actually travels.

  I wanted to see if theres a way to improve the initial attack vectors on the ball with relation to green slope so it' more 'accurate'.

  here's some reference materials:

  http://www.puttingzone.com/Science/cjp-putting.pdf

  Pg 6, fig 4.

  in particular,  if I aim 5 degrees to the right of the pin, when I strike the ball, its already being acted on to the point where  instead of attacking at 5 degrees, its attacking at a "downhill" direction.  (like 3 degrees)...     the ball should always leave the club headed towards the aimed direction before being acted on by angular forces.

  hoping this will improve greens play..

  K7JBQ:

  This is a well-known anamoly. The first few feet of a putt are much more impacted by a break than the last few feet, in complete contrast to what happens in real life.

  It isn't going to change. Learn it, love it, live it.

  Least I'm not alone recognizing it ;)...

  Been warping around looking for this place. So let's see if I have this correct...

  The new Kung Fu Panda Multiverse, Catharmonican Church of the Universe, shall be governed by the supreme overlord, PaulTon.

  As seen here before his coronation, at the Garden of Weeden

  

  Coronation begins with the "Holy Smoke" ceremony

   

  He's in there somewhere.

  We now have a Supreme Overlord, as the ancient txzdave scripts have prophesized

  .

  Jeff is checking for any anomalous gaseous substances, before the Overlord sparks one up, as he has been ordained  as the Universes Nebula Bishop. Only Jeff knows what those Motarin Nebulas contain.

  He is under constant strain from the overlord to bring back some of those gaseous anomalies, so the overlord can test them personally. Without inhaling of course.

  The "Doc" looks on, mundanely. Ready with the Overlord's medicine.

  txzdave is continuing his befuddlement techniques, upon the masses.

  

   

  The overlord, by ordination proclamation, names the "Doc" as Cardinal, of Kung Fu Panda Universe. His sole purpose, shall be to guard the Galactic Ganja nursery,

  

  and send his minions throughout the multiverse, where no Pandafarian has gone before, to seek out, new strains, new Galactifarians, and new potential Catharmonican followers, to go further, than any seeker has gone before. 

  It's a "Lesser Disciple's" life after all.

  11BC2 shall be the resident astrophysicist. Making sense of all celestial bodies, shall be his domain. He can start here with this heavenly body.

   I don't expect to see much of 11BC2, as I'm sure he will study the curvature of space, and time, as though he had all the time in the universe, to himself, and shall throw himself deep, into the gravitational pull, of bodily equations presented to him.

  We are starting off with the Kung Fu Multiverse out of whack, because no sun is lighter than "URANUS", any such further anomalies shall be sent to the resident interrogation specialist, pdb1.

  It shall be his job to make sure NOTHING, in Kung Fu Panda Multiverse makes any sense at all.

  The harmonic balance has been restored....

  How much do we charge "O" Supreme One, for the pure extasy of enrollment, by the true followers? txzdave better get some scriptures out. UFO bumper stickers wouldn't hurt either.

  Himehabu can write his thesis, on the new Catharmonic Multiverse, for extra credit.
