Back Bay Battle not being paid was my fault and not Eric Day's. It was my responsibility and Eric reminded me to pay it within a day or two of the event. Sorry that it was not paid, the check will be in the mail today. Also, I was not on the BOD until more than a month after the event. Not that it matters, it was bad form regardless and I will not allow it to happen in the future. Chby ecotrex - SN Board of Directors
As a TD, aside from stressing speed of play, what else could be done to prevent slow play from happening during future events? Thank you in advance for your suggestions!by ecotrex - General Discussion

Sorry about the OB marks taking place on two holes, 7 & 19, between rounds. However, it was clearly stated, during the players meeting before the first round, that those two holes will have OB marked between rounds and they will be in play for the second round. If anyone would have voiced opposition at anytime, we would not have marked them or had them in play. The OB rules should haveby ecotrex - General Discussion

After consideration of all comments, we will enforce a 5 player/card cap. We will have 21 holes in the ground and at least one temp hole. After removing duplicates and confirmed "Not gonna make it" individuals, the list is exactly 110, or 5/card with 22 holes. This allows every person currently listed to play.
