Dumb question: I've never quite understood the wait list system, so do I have a better chance of getting off the wait list by remaining in MA55, which has fewer spots but only me on the wait list, or moving to MA2 or MA50, which have more spots but more people on the wait lists?

That was a very informative and helpful response, Michael. Thank you. MA50, please.

Gordon Henry   January 28, 2021 at 6:30pm

I'll play in MA2, MA1, or any age group for which I'm eligible, Michael, if it'll help me get off the MA55 wait list.

Michael Barnett   January 29, 2021 at 12:43am

I have a spot in MA2

Cesar Hernandez    January 4, 2021 at 1:35pm

I'm not quite sure what you're asking...the event will not be adding more spots to the overall registration numbers, but the registration list will be modified as players drop out and are replaced by those on the wait list.

Bob Connor    December 28, 2020 at 2:36am

Michael B, are you looking for volunteers?

Michael Barnett   December 28, 2020 at 3:30pm

Always! Any help is appreciated...

Rick Bates    December 23, 2020 at 2:17am

Would it be OK to move from MP50 to MP55?

Michael Barnett   December 23, 2020 at 3:37pm

Would you rather be MP60?

Rick Bates   December 24, 2020 at 10:05am

I'm only 57 so can't

Michael Barnett   December 24, 2020 at 4:24pm

Haha...ok...sorry!

Ben Knievel    December 22, 2020 at 3:30am

Hi Michael. I don't see my PDGA # by my name and my membership is Valid through end of February. I think I entered my # wrong while registering. It's #130278.

Fixed...

Flavio Farias    December 21, 2020 at 11:24am

Do you guys keep good control of people who are dropping from higher levels to intermediate just so they have a better chance at.cashing out or whatever. How fair can it be with people that are obviously better than the rest in a division. “Sandbagging”

Jack Hicks   December 21, 2020 at 5:09pm

Flavio, this has been going on for years. If a players has the rating to play in intermediate, nothing can be done about them playing in that division.

Michael Barnett   December 22, 2020 at 4:08pm

It's not sandbagging if your rating qualifies to play a specific division...

Flavio Farias   December 25, 2020 at 11:29am

I see well I’m new to the tournament scene but thank you for explaining it. Sorry sandbagging can become a loosely user term, I’m also noticing another reason why some are switching and that’s because of the lack of space in other divisions with less players. So I understand now. Hopefully if I get off the wait list I’ll be able to get a little challenge.

Connor Foster    December 18, 2020 at 2:03pm

hey mike i just signed up for MA2 instead MA1 could please you switch me to that waitlist thanks

Hey Mike it turns out that i'm not going to be able to make it. Can you please cancel my registration. Thanks.

Bummer...thanks for the heads up

Jeffrey Smith    December 16, 2020 at 8:59pm

I moved from AM60 to the last spot in Intermediate. I edited it myself already. Move someone off the waitlist.

3 spots available in the MP55 division. For anyone who's interested in throwing some plastic and not being on the waitlist!!! This will be the first time I played in this tournament and to date haven't played the courses! Who's in with me?

Me too Jack, and it will be interesting to see the recent course changes. Trying to find time to go practice in the next 30 days...

Jack Hicks   December 31, 2020 at 4:49pm

Ditto... hoping to get down there the weekend of the 16th

Walt Guttinger   January 1, 2021 at 12:04am

Will contact you if I can make that weekend, otherwise will see you there

Buz Ryalls-Clephane    December 16, 2020 at 12:30am

It's kind of funny that now when we have 7-8 MA60 players at almost every tournament there are only 4 spots available. Who must we lobby to get more spots. Are you trying to push people out of MA60?

hey Michael i see it as you are doing such a good job with your tournaments that more want to get play in them.

Jeffrey Smith   December 16, 2020 at 9:00pm

I moved off AM 60 to Intermediate.

Michael Barnett   December 16, 2020 at 11:21pm

@ James...touche

Jack Hicks    December 15, 2020 at 1:58pm

Any chance you will open a Pro Master 55+ division. I'm sure there are at least 4 of us wanting to play in this division for this event.
