  It would be real cool if you could make a match play tourney for our country club. Also why is closest to the hole unlimited and without the choice of making it 1 time? And when will we be able to have tourneys against other country clubs?

  We have a match play turney going on now in our club. One of the members set it up. first he set up a qualifer 18 hole turnament that ran for 2 days. After that was over he made 4 brackets.we had 32 entreys. 1 played 32 and so on. he is keeping track on who is playing who. Belive me it is a hard thing to do because you have somone in the states playing someone i austraila or england and trying to get people on at the same time is hard. Hope WGT figures out how to do it. If you deside to run one make the brackets where USA plays USA, AUS play Aus, Europe play Europe and so one for the first rounds anyway . well good lucksee you on the links some day

  Agreed, this would be a great feature.

  In regards to getting users to be online at the same time,could WGT specify a series of time windows within a 48 hour period. Players must confirm they can play during the one of the time windows when signing up for the tournament.

  E.g. 3 Time windows of one hour.  Say Monday 9am-10am, 6pm-7pm and Tuesday 9am-10am.

  If a player does not login during one of the time periods then they are automatically disqualified.

  As you say this is not easy to implement. More suggestions and critiques to follow on this one........
