stevereilly:
My understanding then is it's a bit like a 500cr ReadyGo. Except without WGT taking their piece of the pie. The only losers are the guys finishing in the lower half of the field.
I'd be interested to know, how you will police this RUNWME, I know most of the legends who have previously posted are decent, honest players who will take a loss on the chin and pay up, but there will always be a bad apple in every bunch. How can you enforce other players to settle there bets.
Also, I'm guessing there will be a cut line each week where players shooting equal scores will be amongst the winners and losers. WGT splits the pot so ties get a share of the winnings, I'm guessing that won't be the case here..
Good questions steve... copied some of my responses to first page
Once you sign up and are on the list, you will be committing to send or receive a sleeve of balls every single week until you post in this thread asking to be removed. You can start anytime, stop anytime, take a couple weeks off. There is no penalty for missing some weeks, though Every week you do play, you will earn points towards the Nike Tour Championship which will be a sweet trophy for your wall and share of 10,000 credits prize pool that Ill be paying to winners.
There are a lot guys who live in states or countries that can't play for credits. By gifting one another balls, this allows those guys to play in Nike World Championship where they wouldnt be allowed to play in readygos.
The winning half of the field will be determined by wgt leaderboard. For example say 50 people enter this week. Using the leaderboard, the first 25 names on it who are signed up for NWT will receive a sleeve of balls of their choice. If there is an odd number say 51 entrants. The player who finishes highest on the list 1st place will receive 2 sleeves of balls that week. If there is an even number, winner receives just 1.
Lets hope that being that it is a Legend only event, that there won't have to be much policing to it. If you dont receive your balls, post a reminder on the guys wall, may have just been an over-site. If no response, post in this thread and Ill try to contact them. If they do not pay the balls, then they will be blacklisted and barred from any future rounds in the NIKE TOUR and ineligible for any events/prizes that I host in the future.
I'm open to suggestions on best way to run it, keep score or points system and over first couple weeks it may evolve. Let's have a fun fair tourney. If anyone wants to sponsor additional weekly/tour prizes or assist, it would appreciated.
