This Tournament was "most excellent"! The grub was fantastic (the vegetarian sandwich was AWESOME) and the basket layouts were great! Looking forward to the 2013 Rock!

The cashless pre-reg is a great thing to have at one's disposal..........I'm personally a big fan! What I do know is that in that "state up north" if someone abuses the cashless pre-reg....example....someone registers for a tournament and does the no call no show that person is not allowed to use the cashless pre-reg at all in the future.....these individuals are tracked at the following link on discgolfscene....

If you drop out early enough, the PDGA requires that you get your cash back, and if its something last minute, or you don't feel like playing in the rain, the TD shouldn't be the one who suffers. Also, if you do drop out close to the deadline, and the TD chooses not to give you the money back, they are required to give you the players pack items and all that stuff.

Yeah, it still sucks for you because you're out some cash, but the issue was yours and not the TDs.

Firstly, thank you all for the wonderful words and comments. As Rick pointed out in his suggestions for the future, due to a huge number of drops the week of the event and (the field was 88 at one point, reduced to 60 day of), the CLE Rock in the future will be a strictly payed pre-registration event. As I am sure many of you are aware, not only do tournaments require people power, there is an outlay of money that is needed to make things happen. While our club will never get rich running this tournament, we are counting on the "revenues" to offset the cost of the tourney and to hopefully be left with a couple of hundred extra dollars to do ongoing course improvements. Due to the heavy fall off, this year's tourney barely covered itself. Lessons learned.

On the other hand, thank you all to who contributed and made this event run so smoothly. Gyo and Schwartz busted their butts last week to put in our first 13 alternate pin placements and we will continue to invest what money we have in to completing the rest of the first round of alt pin placements, hopefully before the snow flys or at least in the Spring. Thank you to Eric and Katie for making the payouts at the end of the tournament run so well. Thank you Marky Mark Thompson for contributing your time and talent in making this year's lunch both enjoyable and a culinary joy! Thank you to Hole 8 Disc Golf, Catfish and Spiggy for making the Player Pack disc distribution run so well and thank you to Mel for helping me throughout the day.

We have a wonderful group of players here in EUCLID! and throughout NEO and beyond who continue to add to and contribute to our scene. Thank you to the 60 players who showed yesterday and who made (and make) this event such a wonderful one to run. Hopefully we will see you return next year and we will be back to a max field of players. I can not tell you how wonderful it is to see full cards and a full field turning your home course into an event!

Had a great time at the Roc yesterday. Thanks to all who helped to put this together. Special thanks to Gyo for the new basket placements. I actually birdied a few in the Roc! Marc, what a great lunch. That chick pea, raisen, carrot concoction was out of this world! Eric,you ran a tight show.

Suggestion for next year to help avoid all of the no shows. Get the registration up on the PDGA sight early and get people to commit with $$ early. If you paid already, the chances that you will blow off the tourny due to some rain or hangover are greatly reduced. Don't be afraid to ask your friends and comrades at Sims for help. We are here for you!

Ok. Still processing drops, a couple of adds (happily) but still.... drat. Bill, you can play any division you want, ratings only count if you want to play in lower divisions, MM1 is yours if you want it.

On another note. If you were considering not coming because of space, don't, we will take all who want to play tomorrow. We have plenty of space and a cool course to throw at you!! Show up, bring your game and your ducats, we will play some golf!

See you all in the morning!
