renniw52: This game was, for all of us, originally a place to play a little golf, meet new friends and have a good time.
All, are you sure? People are different, have different intentions and objectives. IMHO we can't expect the full audience to see this as golf with it's
traditions, rules and etiquette - it's a video game as well.
On the front page, we all see the money leaders with
alleged career earnings of 50,000 $ (*) Many newcomers will not be able
to resist the treat.
(*) from 5,000,000 credit licences of no monetary value (<= T&Cs)
I agree to the quote and I add the views - I'm a golfer, and I want nothing more from the game. I pay my dues in cash and play along, that's about it, except for a few postings here ;) I find more fun in a good real game tomorrow than in an extraordinary score here.
But I see many others, with ambition, frequently short in money. "The winner takes it all" say the gamers. Some even go the easy road to winning and restart and restart...
Others commit their full time (and their souls?) to the game, eventually becoming top guns here, apparently impossible to beat by us mere mortals in the Virtual Tour and elsewhere.
This list is rudimental, and each honest person has it's rightful space here. It may be a virtue of the game to be so versatile.
