Re: "Awards Off" Option

  I have received multiple "Get Down," "Down the Drain," and "Ham and Egg," awards throughout the past days. It really gets annoying. They usually appear after completion of hole #1 each day. Is there anyway to have an awards off option? They take 30 seconds to get through...

  Those are XP Awards that help you level up, along with helping your country club levels also

  Yep, and they pop up after you play a Custom Course game. Been doing that for some time now. Annoying, yes, but it does add to your and your club's XP count.

  As far as I know, it is not possible to disable the awards. I agree, they are a waste of time and are totally meaningless. The entire award/reward system needs to be revamped.....but then I suppose who knows what else would go wrong

  Is it not how the multiple awards got started is when something went wrong?!

  I encourage our members to play the Custom Courses we set in our cc on last play of the day then play with a pass on first game on consecutive days, this helps greatly on level up with xp points, if you use skip at the end of play this will solve watching all the awards . Brian

  The whole awards and XP level process needs a complete overhaul...A few will see L20 or 21 for a club worth chasing, and are zooming to L140,150 and way more themselves chasing it..................All fine and nothing against those doing it, but as a business the compound of all the fast dosh today ideas have left a real mess...........The current business plan makes long term thinking the next weekend, and if it won't show a $ by then it's not used......They wonder why they can't get a ball sponsor?

  I forget the exact numbers. Not too long ago we hit L19. It takes around 5x the amount for L19 to get to L20. Serious long haul. (Diamond or not)
