  I really don't think this is what WGT had in mind for the clashes. To have one club dominate, isn't good.

  Having one club dominate can be a good thing....it should drive others to the next level. Look at what Tiger Woods did in his heyday.....he raised the bar for others....The reason why The G have stayed at the top? Lack of incentives in prizes and it is not skill based or fair
  
  The idea was not great however - it was ill thought through and there was never any parity for size, nor was skill the primary factor. Without those, it was doomed to never be a successful as it could be.Incentives are the best driver for excellence....clashes fail that mark abysmally
  
  To The Georgian....I say well done, I do not understand their drive, nor will I ever understand that....but they do have some good people at that club - if they continue to dominate the auction process, well done.

  ^^^ This, it's a travesty of what a "competition" should be, but, for those who enjoy spending credits for worthless gizmos and gimmicks, more power to ya. Enjoy your purchases, by all means. I would like to go on record stating that if the Olympics were run like this, their fan base, worldwide, would more than likely decline. Just a thought. Doc:(

  If it were the Olympics the 100 metre race would be awarded to the person willing to walk around the track the most often, buying a pass for say $50 at every corner. Time taken would be as out the window as distance, and the RL track would be substituted for a screen and mouse click. The person with the most RSI and empty wallet would be declared "winner" by the hosts and get a badge saying 100 metres champ..............I doubt many would be around to cheer it:)........................................................................................................................................................................................... However some CCs play it, a few just have a bit of a dabble for whatever reason, the above is what it sadly lends itself to all too often as far as most see it..And WGT have had lots of ideas for an actual competition (maybe in addition). is where it is.

  Why are you here if you don't like it ??
  Edit ( I was referring to overtheedge's Comment )

  The way the question is worded is elementary. When asking a question be sure you word it so everyone can understand what you are referring too and why. BTW - Only 1 question mark was needed.

  Right Guys The Georgian is a well oiled machine and there is nobody who will beat them even in the next 100 Clashes,Good luck tryin to anyone who thinks they can,Im not sayin anymore on beating them but what i will say is there are long standing members who have been there a long time and because they dont clash like the rest of the clan they get overlooked month after month after month,so therefore is the gift of the Golden putter correct(I THINK NOT)there are people in that club who with participation in cc events get overlooked which is wrong and there are people who post shite in the forums who think they deserve 1 but talk absolute drivel,so what i would say is SUE get yer act together and give it to people who Deserve it(Like people who have to look at the crap in the forums)Inbetween clashes when everyone is tryin to jockey for a place,you know what im on about,77Rachel likes to hear here voice heard in the forums,been playin since January,Georgian since May,lol.GET WHAT IM SAYING
