Wednesday Night Lights

Louie Orozco    April 16, 2014 at 10:01pm

Where are we playing at today folks? Your options are: Da Goon (if the baskets are in), Service High School or Peter's Creek. I haven't played any of the mentioned courses since last Wednesday. Course with the most votes wins. Please reply here. Or we can just take the day off. I'll post where we're at by 4:00 pm.

I do ask that the 11 of you on this list PLEASE reply to this thread saying you'll be at the Finale. If I don't have a response by 8:00 pm Sunday night your spot will be filled by the next person in line. In this case that person would be Loren Benedict as he and Eric Hepola are tied in points but Loren attended one league more than Eric.

ARE YOU IN?!?

Anyone pick up my bar stamp orange rhyno on wed night during the playoff... I forgot to pick it up.

I will be running Wednesday Night Lights this week while Lou Dogg enjoys The Memorial in sunny AZ. I am planning on being there somewhat early if any of you would like to pay and get a little practice in before the round. See you there!

Hey Louie, I thought dale and brad took second last night?

Louie Orozco    January 31, 2014 at 4:10am

I don't know about you guys but last nights Dubs sure was a fun one! Twenty-two people showed up. That's the 3rd time we've hit that mark since we've been back at the Goon. Oh, and because of it, we paid out 3 teams :-) A score in the 30's was also hit for the 3rd time this year (2 by James B. (Derek M. and Jordan T.) and 1 by Joe S. (Cali)). Mike Miles hit an ace (#6) on the last Dubs of the month giving him the progressive pot of $122. Not bad for one throw. The fund is now reset back to $20 for February.

Thanks to those of you who filled out a 2014 membership form.

Hot damn! The Bounty Bar has been reset. The team of James Beckner and Derek Meier shot an impressive 37! That's -17 for you mathematicians. So, as of today, these two have the $50 bounty that I set at the beginning of the season for the best score thrown at the Goon during WNL. For anyone wondering which one they missed... it was number 1 their second time around. I know, WEAK!!! Jake Haskin and Toni Osiecki have the co-ed locked in at 47.

Don't forget, next Wednesday is a ... more

Don't forget, next Wednesday is a double points round. Lastly, to those of you who have prepaid leagues available, I thank you for that! It makes my job a bit easier. Two things to remember with the prepaids: 1) you can skip to the front of the line to check in at Dubs and 2) (preferred) you can text me saying you'll be there and I'll add you to the list. Going this route you don't have to be on property until 6:15. Or you can be out putting until that same time. Thanks again!

More people than usual questioned last night's payout. Allow me to break it down:

19 of you showed up to play. That means $76 was up for grabs ($4 per entry fee goes towards the payout). First place received $50, second place received $26. So yes, I paid out 4 of 19 people. Most of you know I have a spreadsheet that I created. I set it up to where it pays out in a 2:1 ratio. For instance: Say there were 21 people there. That would be an $84 pot. The 1st place team would get $4 ... more

Most of you know I have a spreadsheet that I created. I set it up to where it pays out in a 2:1 ratio. For instance: Say there were 21 people there. That would be an $84 pot. The 1st place team would get $42 for the team. 2nd would get $28. 3rd would get $14 to split. See how that works? From 3rd to 1st it would be $7/person, $14/person and $21/person. So the winners would get 3:1, 2nd would get 2:1 and 3rd would get 1:1. Sure it's not always gonna work out that perfectly but you should hopefully get the point. I'm pretty sure that some of you were glad to see 19 there. I know I was. Maybe you were comparing it to WND at Kincaid where we averaged 25+ per league. At that point you can definitely count on me paying out 3 groups. In fact, we paid out 4 groups a couple of times last year.

Another thing: if there are 3-10 people it's winners-take-all, 11-20 and I'll pay 2 teams, 21-30 for 3 teams and 31-40 to pay 4 teams. 41 or more and I gotta figure that out myself. I look forward to that day :-)

So, I hope some of your feeling weren't hurt. I know we all like to win (some more than others). The average winning score so far at the Goon is 42.25, let's round that to a 42 or a -12.

I'll leave you with this: we all play to win. If you want to avoid being left out of the cash... turn in a -13 or better and you should have a good chance to at least get your money back. I love playing for free and you should too. Anything else should be a bonus.

I received a few text messages in regards to if Dubs was cancelled or moved for this week. I thought I was clear last Dubs when we not only talked about it but agreed to simply move the date a day back, to today. So, we'll be at the Goon tonight at 6:15 (money) and we'll start up at 6:30.

P.S. I'm still in the Christmas spirt. Hope to see you all there!

I found a red disc on #9 near the basket, 2nd time through at Lights. Is it yours?

Thad Murgatroyd    November 20, 2013 at 4:35am

Just heard the goon is in

Joe Schacht    November 20, 2013 at 2:44am

What's the word on the goon!? Anybody?

josh stewart    November 14, 2013 at 4:24am

Hole 4 and 5 will require sharp eyes. The light pollution and fresh snow has claimed two discs already. My black tee bird + on 5 in the alders by 6 and mike miles lost one between the basket and rink on 4

josh stewart    November 14, 2013 at 4:23am

Counting down the hours til leagues... Sooooo stoked

Louie Orozco    November 14, 2013 at 2:57am

B-Rad just confirmed that baskets are NOT in the ground at the Goon. See you fine folks at Service High School tonight at 6:15 pm. See you all there!

Joe Schacht    November 13, 2013 at 10:50pm

What's the word on the goon? Anybody know?

Louie Orozco    November 12, 2013 at 6:49am

Wednesday Night Lights update: If the baskets are in at Westchester by noon on Wednesday, we'll play there. If they're not, we'll be at Service High School one last time.

Joe Schacht    November 7, 2013 at 6:00am

Service tonight for leagues?

Louie Orozco    November 1, 2013 at 1:19am

We had a great turnout last night! 22 is the new number to beat! Sorry I ran out of lights. I had 17 packs with me and they were all gone within the first 15 minutes. We do have 50 more packs so if you need some, I'll have them with me at Kincaid on Saturday (or next Wednesday).

Welcome back from the Desert, Henry Crankshaw! When we lost you, we lost out on the other Military guys that were coming out regularly. So thank you for your service and thank you for your commitment to the ADGA! You are MUCH appreciated!

Perfect attendence for WNL's goes as follows: Jake Vohs, Mike Miles, Josh Stewart, Joe Schacht, John Thein, Jeremy Boyd and myself.

I'm missing two green lights. If you have them, please let me know.

Lastly, not to sound like a broken record but... Shawn G, Joe S, Loren B and Brian C, you have been warned. If I don't have your money by 6:15 every WNL league from here on out it'll be the non-member fee for you fellas (that's approximately 25 more weeks). Shawn offered to pay but I said after the announced date that I'd give everyone a freebee. It's marked on the spreadsheet that you 4 have used yours so don't think I'll forget :-)
