The Majestic

Cale Leiviska

There was some severe miscommunication from the course staff and after some time, large branches were placed on the long tee, so naturally, the rest of the groups played the short tee. We deemed this the most fair way to rule, as did the PDGA. I’m sorry about it too! But penalizing players for the course mistake would not have been correct. Sorry.

Joshua Scribner

Thank you for more clarification. The email seemed like it was just mistake by a few people.

Cale Leiviska

No, Fp40, mp55 and mp65 played 3 short tees. This will

be adjusted in final ratings!

Matt Dollar

Not adjusted for ratings update. Wow

Kara, I’m well aware of the fact that the world doesn’t revolve around me. Apparently you think it’s okay to attack my character without addressing any of the issues that I’ve brought up in each of those cases and in this tournament. The only way you’ve gotten to your conclusion(s) is by making a lot of assumptions and also by employing argument fallacies (ad hominem being the worse, IMO). Sorry you don’t like it when people stand up for themselves or when people point out that something isn’t being done right. Maybe it’s because you don’t stand up for yourself? I can’t know because I don’t know you, but I do know that you don’t know me or what you’re talking about, but you think it’s okay to attack my character. Hopefully other people have more grace towards you and don’t assume they know everything about you from little to no information. Have a good day.

Kara Barnett

First and for most Cale is not the one who you should be attacking his name is not on there as a TD he is a player in this event so go complain like you do the ones who are running the tournament. Not our problem that nothing seems to make you happy or nothing goes your way, if you don’t like it stick to FA1!!

Kara Barnett

If you’re gonna complain just do it in a better way otherwise people won’t attack you. You are know for complaining at tournaments, and make sure you go after the right person and not just assume who you should go off on at tournaments you attend!

Kara, first and foremost, Cale is the one that responded to my initial message and he was posted as being “staff” when I made those comments. He was later on removed, which is interesting (I have a screenshot showing this to be true). I did not attack Cale. I have zero issues with Cale as a human being. I’m sure he has many amazing characteristics as a person. I’m also very happy that so many people support him well and love him, but that should not be reason to bully me for pointing out the truth! Unfortunately for you, I don’t mind bullies, because I can stand up for myself just fine and I know what I’m about. In my original comment, I did not address Cale at all, but those running the event. Cale is the one that chose to respond and he did so in a passive aggressive way - that is simply a fact. I addressed specific issues with the lack of information and communication & stated that if these issues are not being addressed, then people that are more capable should take over. Second, if you (& clearly so many others) actually care about Cale, then why is it that other people aren’t stepping up and doing the planning necessary. I’m sure Cale is a very busy guy. If you care so much about his reputation, and are willing to spend the time to comment with little facts, then why not spend that time putting together a schedule or caddy book or email that provides information so we don’t have to remember every word the starter (/course director) says right before our round. Just as a simple example, I was told to follow everything on the tee signs, then we were told other information about OB, Mandos, etc. This information ended up conflicting with MANY of the tee signs. So, if you didn’t remember all the details, then you’d play the hole wrong. There’s a reason for caddy books, and this is one of those reasons. A caddy book is a way for the players to know what is happening, to know how to practice a hole, what layout and teepads are being played, etc. As I’ve stated before, this is VERY standard information to have at just about any event. This is one of (if not the) longest running A-Tier in existence. The fact that there isn’t a caddy book that’s being updated every year is just silly and negligent. So if you don’t want the Majestic staff to have a bad rep about running events poorly, then maybe those in the community should step up and put together the information that is necessary for running an event of this magnitude, status, & tier!

Rebecca Minnick

Thank you

Cale Leiviska

I’ll let Ray know, thanks Matt!

Cale Leiviska

It’s painted!

Matt Dollar

Thanks Cale! The courses are looking excellent!

Cale Leiviska

Sorry to hear that man!

Cale Leiviska

Sure thing!

Victor Her

Hey Cale, my son wants to Caddie for me at the Hollows on Friday. Is it ok?

Cale Leiviska

MP40 will be late morning, early afternoon.

Cale Leiviska

Also Andrew, just noticed you are one of the remaining folks from the waitlist who has not updated registration payment. You have a few more hours.

Cale Leiviska

This information has been out for months. Sorry you werent able to find it. Maybe next year we will downgrade to a c tier and you wont need to SYH...

Ryan H. LaRue

Your attitude is unacceptable Rebecca. 269 othee players in this tournament and we all understand how these things work. If you want to express your opinion to someone, perhaps contact them directly instead of publicly. You gain more respect from that person, who

Ryan H. LaRue

Will then be more open to your critism. Also, you won't run the risk of publicly embarrassing yourself....again.

Rebecca Minnick

Cale, where has it been at for months? In the comments. Because if so then no one should have to read through 75+ comments in order to figure out what course they’re playing and what the schedule is. Maybe you should downgrade to a C-Tier if the information can’t be put on the DGS About section or at the very least in the picture section.

Rebecca Minnick

Ryan, my attitude is very reasonable given the fact that there was no schedule posted on the about page until 2-3 days prior to the tournament start. I don’t think you can speak for the other 269 players. I know others that also agree that not having a schedule posted was unacceptable. You can ... more

Ryan, my attitude is very reasonable given the fact that there was no schedule posted on the about page until 2-3 days prior to the tournament start. I don’t think you can speak for the other 269 players. I know others that also agree that not having a schedule posted was unacceptable. You can only ever speak for yourself. Commenting was my way of being respectful. I’m pointing out something very basic and obvious that should not be happening at an A-Tier. I can not speak for the rest of the field, but I would imagine that a lot of people would agree with me, but they are too afraid of conflict to say it so boldly, even only saying it to those running the tournament. There’s no embarrassment on my end, so maybe you’re the one that’s embarrassed???

AJ Johnson

No one agrees with you

Andrew Garrett

I agree with her. I did not find out where I was playing until Matt Dollar asked 2 days ago.
Thanks Matt.
I’ve TD’d tournaments, including ones with Cale.
I always include course information and schedule on the about page.
I even searched here (in the comments) and found no schedule information.
C-Tiers also need to include schedule information.
I’m with you Rebecca.

Ryan H. LaRue

So bold you are

Ryan H. LaRue

Dollar was kind, Rebecca was insulting. That's the difference.

Timothy Kremer

Rebecca has everything correct. This is an A tier event with C tier communication. And it hasn't been just this year. Every other A tier I travel to has a caddie book and detailed schedule up and ready for viewing well before a week out, even a month out.

Timothy Kremer

Look down these comments and you will see a personal response from Cale regarding what time the FP40 pool is playing. The Schedule is made, just not published for the public to see.

If you are in on the clique, you find out how the holes at BRP are being placed. If you aren't, tough luck. If you are on the inside, you get your questions answered, if not you get nothing but silence followed by derision. Thanks Rebecca. Thanks Robert.

Cale Leiviska

Woah, this is getting a bit hostile. I assure you, there is no special insider information for my clique. Doing my best to answer all questions. It has been known since registration opened in January that all divisions are playing Hollows and BRP on Friday and Saturday. I guess I underestimated how important it was for people to know 6 months ahead of time, which day they were going to play which course. I am sure you would have practiced the holes differently in preparation for that. I'll do better in the future. Sincerely, if you would like to drop and receive a full refund, I would gladly oblige.

Timothy Kremer

Cale, I sincerely apologize for my above comment as it is too personal. I was trying to express support for Rebecca's position and I overstepped. Sorry. I

Rebecca Minnick

Timothy, thank you for the support!

Prodigy doing prodigy things.. Same problems with his preserve tournament. Last minute update to play red fox was a joke as well.

Cale, you’ve been passive aggressive in both of your responses. The items mentioned should be very standard practice at PDGA events. These are not extreme requests. We do not need a full schedule 6 months in advance. Once registration begins filling out, there should at least be an understanding of which divisions will play which course & on what days. At least a baseline schedule should be available 3-4 months prior to the event with updates as details are finalized. Providing explanations on what additional details are in the works. Then once you get to the 1 month mark, you should absolutely have a full and complete schedule out. If there are a couple unknown details, these should be clearly communicated and explained (not just in the comments - but on the main “about” page). People are spending hundreds of dollars to play these events including travel, lodging, etc. It is unprofessional to not include more details, especially with only days until the event. It’s also inconsiderate of people’s time and money. Yes, I agree, you did underestimate. If you go on Disc Golf Scene and look at the information that is given for other PDGA Sanctioned Events, you will quickly see that there’s a huge discrepancy between information shown on this event and most other events. Examples at the bottom. It looks as though those planning this event didn’t want to be bothered to put an effort on the front end in order to provide basic and standard information, appropriate for an event of this size. I’m not trying to be rude (although I assume you will think so). I’m being direct, honest, and straightforward about what I’ve observed. If you aren’t willing to put more effort into events you are running, or just aren’t good at planning, scheduling, etc, then maybe it’s best to find people that are. Not everyone is cut out to run events, especially large ones. Some people’s minds just don’t work that way as well as others, and that’s totally okay. What’s not okay is making things unnecessarily difficult on hundreds of competitors because you’re unwilling to see where change is needed & then getting upset when that’s pointed out. I hope you choose to do better in the future or hand these things off to people that are willing to put in the effort that is required for an event of this size and caliber. I know an option is for me to “Just not play the event.” And that’s a viable option. But why not take pride in an event that has been known for many years? Rather than ride on previous successes, instead, strive to do better. Here’s a few tournaments coming up nearby for comparison on schedule (provided well in advance): 1. https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/Cedar_Creek_Open_2024 2. https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournament/11th_Annual_Toys_for_Tots_2024 (https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournament/11th_Annual_Toys_for_Tots_2024) 3. https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournament/Everyday_Fall_Open_2024 (https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournament/Everyday_Fall_Open_2024) 4. https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournament/Titan_Open_2024_Presented_by_Discraft

I believe 10 and under are free.

Lora Murtha

Thanks

Cale Leiviska

I dont think there is any player party vending Andrew. If you want to become a vendor for Sunday, you'll have to ask BRP.

Cale Leiviska

Courses are set buddy, ready to play

Danny Cherlow

Nice! Is it possible for me to start anytime of day after 10am? I have to drop my son off at summer camp. If not no worries I know ur super busy and have a lot to handle. I'll find a way if I have to.

Mp40 plays Hollows Friday, Brp Saturday!
