| Re: Let's set up a virtual tournament! Idea of local time might not work. Computer software does not understand if it gets uploaded score about the same time, but to different weeks.
If you get to play just one competition round per week, we don't need to fix the time to local time. Let's say that you cannot play on monday - or just say that week end on Greenwiths time midday every monday.
So the actual tournament is the VT part and the real life tournament is an extra event. Let's just pick a place to play an see who can make it there.
We cannot wait for the VT to end, becouse the reservations have to be make earlier.
To play a tournament in September - October, we need to book a course and also need to set aside some free time from work and book flights and a hotel. (If we get 20 players that will be great, but we might even get a 100? - And that would mean more organizing, but would be worth it.
I think we can get people interested, but first be need to build this so that everyone knows that it will work. I have asked a few people about different softwares and solution to run our VT. I am hoping for a solution where user imputs their score and the program calculates everything needed: next HCP, net score, tournament leaderboard - or money list. (Weekly competition results and the total situation as VT runs.)
