I know a few that have that, tried it once and hated it. Not the nicotine for me it’s the habit, was enjoyable. Those things are just straight nicotine

Ok I got a late start so instead of taking even more time to read all 5 pages that I’m behind.

I’m confident I can take any 3 remaining players from the list and lead us to victory.    So I’ll put out the call of arms….or sticks in this case. 
 

The first three to reply to this post in order will be part of team CG2 and to seeeten the pot will get a little Titliest gift as a welcome to the team.   
 

Yeah, I’m not above bribery

We don’t have that kind of pull! 

[Golf2Much]

Captains, once your team is filled out, don't forget to come up with a team name.   Let's see as much creativity in names as the banter has been today during the first day of free agency!  We can only hope the matches are as competitive as it's been making teams!

Still out here as a free agent.....

Why has no one grabbed you?

[GolfSpy_BNG]

I can assure everyone based on the mgs pga pick ‘‘em that if I pick players my team is sure to fail. Therefore I’m going auto pick style. The first 3 to say they want on the team or the last 3 players left whichever happens first is my route.

Is this a guy thing or do you let women participate?   I am a newer player and new to this site and havent really seen any women posting anything

Everybody is welcome - no such thing as "a guy thing" in my book Cindy!!  Welcome to the forum (watch for a DM from me soon  ) .

As far as this event goes... go ahead and answer the poll at the top of the thread.  We had a tremendous response and have all 64 spots tentatively filled.... but signups beyond the first 64 are considered alternates for those that may not be able to participate through the 5 week event starting Sept 1.  So you just may get a chance to show your game via a match or two!

Also... be sure to check out the Weekly MGS Forum Member Virtual Championship Tour thread.  You are more than welcome to post as many scores as you play each week, and see your name appear on the leaderboard alongside the other members on the forum. 

Happy to have you here

Tim.

How do we know if we are selected for the match-play event?

I need to check, but did you complete the poll at the top of the thread?  the first 64 are that completed the poll as "interested" are in. 

[GolfSpy TCB]

Man, this is a hot and heavy trading day!  I'm not even sure who committed to my team and who dogged me (I'm looking at you @Javs ). 

I am going to need a few hours to let this dust settle and make sense of all this. 

Team Captains.... once you have your team set... be sure to Post with an @ to me @GolfSpy TCB and to @Golf2Much. 

I will try to build an available player board to help Captains and Players connect... 

If the team selection day is THIS crazy... IMAGINE what the Matches will look like!!!!

[GolfSpy_SHARK]

Any vets and first responders interested in joining?

Believe I got @StrokerAce and @bens197is teetering in the fence…. @Javs abandoned ship at the first sign of adversity

What about an All-L.A.B. team? @EasyPutter, @Golf2Much, @bens197 - What say you? We'll make like Lucas Glover, rock-our-shoulders and crush the competition. 

@bens197 - apologies if I missed you confirming - I see you liked my post, but I'm deadly serious about getting our team locked in so that we can all join a Zoom call live from the putting green as we work our no-thumb drill set.  And by "deadly serious," of course, I mean the exact opposite. 

But are you in or not? For reals  Come, join @EasyPutter, @ZMendle10 and I on our path to sweet, sweet victory.

Too bad so sad! Locked in buddy!

[Preeway]

I am so lost right now. I know I have @OrangeCrush  other than that I’m still open for two spots. Once I finish my open house at school I can pay closer attention. LOL

I believe @Lacassem asked first so I have to honor that.  

I was humbled to bring my L.A.B. game to your group however, I will be rolling with the New Englander.

I’m going to take a slightly different tack in the recruitment of my team. To those who signed up but are concerned about not getting picked, simply quote this post and volunteer. I’ll take the first 3 that do so. Part of the fun of this challenge is getting to know our fellow forum members, so who I pair up with is less important to me than ensuring that everyone has a good time.

How do do you if you have been picked?

[GolfSpy SAM]

Alright, so as of right now, I've got @ZMendle10 and @EasyPutter, and my HOPE was (thanks a lot, all you goobers) to have a fourth L.A.B. user to round out our team.  However, if you're NOT a L.A.B. user, but you , I don't know, really like the way they look(?), hit me up and I'll happily add you to "3 LABs and a Sucker" group (name to be determined - don't get upset YET).

Either a captain will ask you want to join or some of us are offering spots for anyone who is interested in joining. I have spots available, if you’re interested.

[rkj427]

Sadly, just added my name to those who will not be able to participate.

Will be traveling, internationally for work for 11 days in mid-September, and even though I may be able to get enough rounds in, while I am gone, I will not have any personal internet access.

I will be watching for teams to be chosen and rooting for all to do their best.
