If you took 1st, 2nd or 3rd in your division make sure to see Chapman back at the check-in desk before you leave. He'll give you his contact information and a small security code (to help him make sure it's actually you) and all you'll need to do is send him your name, the security code and a Bitcoin Address you want your prize sent to!
Chapman will have to go home to send bitcoins to people, so please be patient with receiving your rewards! I'm pretty sure we can get them knocked-out same day :)

About this tournament
1 round of play
A variation on the Peercoin Open... it's A Bitcoin Open!
Ideally you have a PDGA membership, have built up a little bit of history through sanctioned events, and choose a division according to what you normally would at a PDGA sanctioned event. You may be asked to move to a more appropriate division if community consensus is that you chose incorrectly.
I didn't want to exclude players without a PDGA record to help guide their division choice but after some thought I don't know that there's really a way around it. So, from Nov. 17 forward you need to have a PDGA record to sign up. Current players without PDGA records will be grandfathered in.
Bring plenty of water. There won't be any on the course and 27 holes can really add up!
Added "cash": 0.3 BTC
In progress as people add/drop, but basically how prizes work: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yNBIjWyIdecqRxEhWw9sNU9_s5nKXkCIXnNynP5SuX4/edit?usp=sharing
Podium finishes in each division get paid out to a Bitcoin Address (which can come from any number of websites or software... it's kind of up to you to get one).
Caddy Book
Take a look at the tee signs in the Pictures tab if you're unfamiliar with the course.
You might notice a thick white line on the course, that's a cross country route you can ignore. Ignore any flags or orange lines from the Crosstown Throwdown that was held at the course recently.
Hole 1: Sidewalk and beyond left is OB.
Hole 2: Sidewalk and beyond far right is OB.
Hole 3: Road and beyond behind the basket is OB.
Hole 4: Sidewalk and beyond behind the basket is OB.
Hole 5: Sidewalk and beyond right is OB.
Hole 6: Mando to your right that the disc must stay to the left of. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and left of the tree. Sidewalk and beyond behind the basket is OB.
Hole 7: Sidewalk and beyond left and behind the basket is OB.
Hole 8: Mando to your right that the disc must stay to the left of. Missed mando, re-tee. Sidewalk and beyond right is OB. Creek and beyond left is OB. Easy to lose a disc in the rough on the left, beware.
Hole 9: Mando to your right that the disc must stay to the left of. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and left of the tree. Sidewalk and beyond right is OB. Creek and beyond left and behind the basket is OB. It's okay to land in the rocky creek beds directly in front of the tee pad, just watch your footing.
Hole 10: Sidewalk and beyond left is OB. Surrounded by sidewalk on the "cement river" running in front of the basket is OB.
Hole 11: Mando to your left that the disc must stay to the right of. Missed mando, re-tee. Second mando farther up the fairway to your right that the disc must stay to the left of. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and left of the tree. The white dirt path is not OB (a common course rule that we will ignore).
Hole 12: Sidewalk and beyond to the far right is OB.
Hole 13: Sidewalk and beyond to the left is OB.
Hole 14: Sidewalk and beyond to the left is OB. The white dirt path is not OB (a common course rule that we will ignore).
Hole 15: Mando to your left that the disc must stay to the right of. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and right of the tree. Sidewalk and beyond left is OB. Surrounded by water is OB (there is some water in the creek but usually not much).
Hole 16: Mando to your right (on a power line pole) that the disc must stay to the left of. Usually doesn't come into play but if you're throwing something far to the right get a spotter to make sure you don't miss it. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and left of the power line pole. Sidewalk and beyond right is OB. Surrounded by water is OB (there is a semi-dry creek to the left that you can end up in but is actually playable so you can throw from where you land).
Hole 17: Sidewalk and beyond right is OB. Surrounded by water is OB.
Hole 18: Creek and beyond left is OB.
Hole 19: No OB to worry about.
Hole 20: Private property left is OB.
Hole 21: No OB to worry about.
Hole 22: No OB to worry about.
Hole 23: Sidewalk and beyond behind the basket is OB.
Hole 24: Surrounded by water is OB. Private property is OB (The small garden patch to your left approaching the houses is actually fine to land and play from). The white dirt path is not OB (a common course rule that we will ignore).
Hole 25: Mando to your right that the disc must stay to the left of. Missed mando, drop zone at the base and left of the tree. Surrounded by water if you go far left into the creek is OB.
Hole 26: Surrounded by water if you go far left into the creek is OB.
Hole 27: Parking lot and beyond is OB.
