The Old Tolbooth Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Me too Had a quick look to see how much I've spent on this "free" game and stopped counting when it got to ?100 I'm scared to look, whoever invented this game must be stinking rich!!!

ArmiyaRomanova Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Anyone played the new Merion full 18 holes yet? Plenty of ludicrously long par 4s, impossibly convoluted fairways and nasty sloping greens. Utter nightmare course, I struggled to go round in a two under 68 - and discovered that the competition leader is on 56 - or 14 under par. How the f......? Incidentally, since this is now a WGT course, who'd object to my adding it to the Marathon tourney? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark_Mywords Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I've never managed this before - The only way to beat that score is to eagle the 2nd or get a hole in 1.... I'm giving up lol..... Well played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmiyaRomanova Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I've never managed this before - Gotta applaud that, dammit. Seems six under par over nine holes simply isn't good enough these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Tolbooth Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I've never managed this before - And it's no even feckin windy!!!!! Ayeball, no complaints from me adding Merion to the list mate, I tried it today and shot a 73, I was 3 under until the last 5 holes which are a feckin nightmare!! Probably the toughest course on the entire game by some distance, the clubhouse leader is some Swedish bloke with a funny name who shot a 55, WTF???

It's time this competition grew a pair and stopped pandering to all the pansies that play off the women's tees . . . Roll oot the 'Championship' speed greens and we'll see some real doonhill putts . . . . Crank up the wind machine to at least 100mph . . . . It's time to take oot the trash and man up gents . . . .

ArmiyaRomanova Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 THE JKB PERPETUAL WINTER MARATHON PLAY-IT-ALL CHALLENGE LEADERBOARD after SEVEN WEEKS - a third of the way through the tournament. r0880 - 123 AndyMcI77 - 110 milanos - 98 Juanimator - 85 graygo - 81 ayeball - 77 sosweb - 71 portobellojambo1 - 56 JamboBoof - 56 persil32 - 53 jamiej29 - 32 jambocraig - 20 soapysouter - 5 Beats78 - 4 No position changes this week, but a couple of players drawing closer to those immediately above them in the table - and JamboBoof drawing level with portobellojambo1. MAILLOT JAUNE For the third week in a row, a pretty stinky jersey stays with r0880 for taking 18 from a possible 20 points. Dropping a point each week but still emerging on top.

I've also managed to pull a few points up, drawing level with graygo in 5th place. persil32's performance this week sees him rise two places from 8th last week to 6th this week. portobellojambo1 breaks ranks with JamboBoof - if only the latter had attempted the CTTH this week.... and finally, jamiej29's sterling 10 points in the Stroke play sees him move closer to the mid-range scorers. MAILLOT JAUNE For the first time, the jersey passes from 3-time winner r0880 to Juanimator - who'd probably better wash before wearing.

Now thanks to you pair of selfish barstewards, those tears of joy will be tears of anguish - the toys will be oot the pram - his faith will be crushed he's going to be sooooooo destitute. Whose phone do you think he'll be ringing ? Whose shoulder do you think he'll be crying on ? Whose life do you think will be on hold picking up the broken pieces ? It won't be you two that's for damn sure . . . . . I hope you're proud of yourselves you horrible horrible pair of self-centered low lifes. BE ASHAMED BE VERY ASHAMED.
