ernie has a good point. if a popular am or pro level arcade event sells out its 64 slots early on, an enterprising member might well duplicate its venue and conditions and create an exact parallel event which might well sell out too. lw

I , personally, don`t give a fidler`s fa-- about stats and whether this is only a beta site or not. It`s a matter of someone taking up spaces that others would appreciate. That is the only drawback to the arcade side of things. 64 is not enough spaces for some of the popular events. Then when people waste them , it gets annoying !!


So we need to play all 4 rounds in a row to make you feel better?? Chances are the people with one or two rounds when you looked, ended up finishing them on another day....Do you know where the "create tournament" button is located?

Another reason some might not finish (and it just happened to me in CH Wack touney) is that game crashed. I have been having that happen lately where I get a "stack overload" error. When I go back to log in, it asks if I want to resume. I click yes and then my player shows up with only partial rendering of course and won't reconnect. I have to end game to get out and then DQ'd. Frustrating!!! Anybody have a solution or get the same errors?

Heap stack or stack overload happened when i d/l one of the main sound scripts from hey martin.......Turned off main script and it works well.......It's quiet, but no more crashes

Hi mercedes
I set up the CH Wack n Hack tourney. there are 6 requalifiers with 1 or 2 penaltys per( cant remember), with multiplier on.
So you should be able to requalify . :D

i don't think the peeps here simply like to argue. it's a widely accepted observation linksters as a whole are a 40-60ish crowd, and for the most part emotionally mature (maturity has nothing to do with age). and since we have a preference for a more cerebral type of game, versus mindless car chases or wargames, we think a little more than the average gamester. thus, when something arises we don't agree with, we give an opinion, albeit sometimes adamantly. and i do like peeps with (intellectually formed) opinions.

Thanks Chris. I noticed that on the Wack tourney's. Geez, that has been the hardest course to date for me anyway! Narrow fairways and tough greens.
