WINNER: PGA golf event -- Winner: overlander

[flexmaster33]

got to a bit of an update for the leader board, but still a bulk of the round two holes to look at, expect another update by Monday morning.

[Gromph]

what happen if we cant finish our prison riot games? (with only one player eliminated and in a stalemate situation)

[flexmaster33]

I'll come up with a solution...but will be putting a 50-round cap on all future games.

After a tense few minutes evaluating the situation, I ignored the pleas of my caddie who told me to 2 putt and was able to drain a much needed 50 foot downhill birdie putt on the par 5, 3rd hole (knocking all the other players out in a single round) to give me a glimmer of hope of making the cut.

[flexmaster33]

All right...scorecard link has been updated along with the leaderboard through all completed maps as of now.

qwertylpc is leading the field by four strokes at 6-under par, while the cut line sits at 14-over right now. I'll be getting out the remaining round 2 maps throughout the day Monday, maybe into Tuesday...that will be your last chance to get over the cut mark.

good luck all, flex

Fresh leader board and PGA scorecard link is up...I still have most of the back nine on the second round to go through, but all first-round holes are in the books and most of the front-side in round 2.

An update from the back nine where Plash Ricrem is desperately scrambling to make the cut: Knowing he needed to make a move to see the weekend, Ricrem went for the green on 10 in 2, only to watch in horror as the ball rolled off the green and into the lake (went for the kill/ escalating card set sweep only to lose 6-1 on the last remaining territory from igniting probable victory).

He was able to hole out from the drop spot to save par, before starting what has generally been a positive run on the back 9, However it looks like missed putts will plague him as he likely spends the weekend at the hotel par.

[qwertylpc]

big 6 player win 4 eliminations to move to 8 under i believe

[flexmaster33]

It looks like we have a good section of completed maps...I'll keep cranking through round 2 on Tuesday, but I've posted an update through some of those holes I was able to check.

[flexmaster33]

The scorecard link is updated along with the leaderboard. Because we have a cut-off after round two, I'm waiting for a handful of maps to finish up to tally the final cut. Hoping to get the 3rd round started sometime this week.

Cutline sits at 18-over for the moment and qwerty remains the tournament leader with a 5-under score.

Your intrepid reporter caught up with Plash.Ricrem following his unoffical 2nd round score of an 82, which is likely to leave him just outside the cut line:

IR: so what happened down the stretch, things were looking good, and then...?

PR (Sipping a jack and coke): Well I was quite pleased with my back 9 performance, but then I double bogied 14, which was sort of unfortunate. Can't really explain how that happened, wasn't a good tee shot and things went downhill from there. But , I still thought I had a decent chance at making the cut if I was able to make a move on 17, so I decided to go for broke and go for the green in 2.

IR: A daring approach.

PR: Yeah, well my front 9 score was putrid, so I decided to gamble a bit more on the back. And things were looking great on 17, I hit a solid drive (knocked out a guy) and was even able to put it on the green in 2! (was in prime position to take the map) And then things got ridiculous. As I was lining up my eagle putt, a bolt of lightening fell from the sky and downed a tree right in the line of my ball (fluke October snow storm cut out my power and I deadbeated a turn allowing whakamole to get back in the match.)

IR: Well that must have been unsettling.

PR: It was certainly unexpected, but I figured I only had a 10 foot putt (had a 3 card set worth a ton), so all I had to do was chip it over the tree and take the birdie. But as I was lining up to chip it, my ball moved and counted as a stroke (unforseen technical difficulties some how caused me to take my turn but not attack, resulting in me not cashing my set, but more importantly not being able to pick up a card).

Eventually, I chipped over, but by then I was rattled, and things just didn't fall right (we went back and forth and I ended up losing when I had to go 5 for a set, something that wouldn't have happened if things hadn't gotten crazy).

IR: Any other thoughts on your performance in this tourney?

PR: I'd go with maddeningly inconsistent. I had flashes of brilliance, and played a solid back 9, but the front 9 of this round was all sorts of forgettable. I think I'll just have to go back to my home course and work on some of those short putts that cost me on the par 5's.

[flexmaster33]

Isn't plash supposed to be getting to the gym anyway to lead the Catamounts to an NIT berth or something???

[flexmaster33]

the leader board has been updated...qwerty continues at the top at 5-under, while the cut line will either fall at 18 or 19-over.

We have three active maps (17 total players) active in the second round — Prison Riot can get crazy. That map will be switched out for rounds 3 & 4 or at least played with a 50-round cap.

Still waiting on a couple players to finish up, then I should be able to determine the hard cut line and we'll proceed with the third round.

[flexmaster33]

Thought I'd also note some big jumps on the leaderboard as we head into the final rounds, so don't get too discouraged if you're feeling buried down the list.

Easy N Dirty went from a +6 opening round to a 3-under 2nd round to gain nine strokes.
ItzPetey went from +16 in the first round to an even-par 2nd round to gain 16 strokes.
whakamole went from +14 in round one to 6-under in round 2 for a whopping 20-stroke gain.

[flexmaster33]

The official cut line is at +18...I will be posting an updated scoreboard and sending out the start of round 3 at some point on Monday.

[flexmaster33]

Leader board is updated...we still have two Prison Riot maps in play, but the results can't move the cut line, so we'll proceed into the third round now.

Thanks to all who took part, but have missed the cut...continue to look for my sports themed tournaments throughout the year.

[cazmart]

Since I have par guaranteed I will be forcing the issue in one prison map for you

[flexmaster33]

no worries...I'm officially capping those Prison maps at 50 rounds...also for Rounds 3 & 4 Prison Riot (Hole #3) will turn to Draknor Level 1

[flexmaster33]

third round has started with holes 1-3 sent out this morning...I'll be sending 4-6 later today.

[flexmaster33]

resent invites to a couple players missing games.

[flexmaster33]

leaderboard and scorecard link are updated with all maps final through the first two rounds.

Most have completed their par-3 (Hole #4) in the third round, so this weekend, I'll send out the rest of the front nine (holes #7-#9)

Qwerty remains our tournament leader at 5-under, holding a two-stroke lead over the field.

[flexmaster33]

Leaderboard is updated with qwerty and shoop tied for the lead right now. I'll update the scorecard link by the end of the weekend.

[flexmaster33]

It remains a tight race at the top of the leaderboard...updated along with a fresh link to the scorecards. I still have a few holes from the front nine (round 3) to check, but should be able to send out some back-nine maps over the weekend.
