Its appears that they deleted my comment asking why they took FitBit down as a sponsor.
I don't see their facebook page linked on their home page, did they take down the link or am I just blind? I see twitter but not fb.

Is kilgus on dgcr?
So has there been any confirmation that any actual top-tier pros are playing in this thing?

I've spoken with one pro on the list who, in addition to not planning on attending due to the scheduling, confirmed that he hasn't received an actual invite (unless that invite went to an email he no longer uses).
Wouldn't it be great if they didn't actually send any invitations? Like they posted the list of players in the website and went "that should take care of that"?
That pretty well fits the way they run their business.
Where's the list?Apparently David Feldberg registered.

They could have gone out by standard mail. Or not been issued yet. Or, I guess, be relying on the website, and word of mouth.
Keep in mind that this was understandably secret until 2 days ago. They certainly wouldn't send out invites before confirming their deal with ESPN. It would hardly be surprising that all the invitees weren't notified before then, and haven't been notified yet in the short period since.
(Assuming, of course, the info they've given on their website and elsewhere is correct).
... the rim can be 2.75cm instead of 2.6cm. Does that get the Gateway Ninja in?
I understand what you're saying here, but if you haven't invited anyone, why even post the list? Why not just wait until you've sent the invites and people can vouch for it? Otherwise, it just adds to the multiple reasons for skepticism.

Off on a totally different tangent...Why the different disc specs? So a 14cm diameter disc is legal...who cares? Who makes one? Even if Salinet was planning to, who would throw it? Feldberg? He is going to throw his sponsors disc. His sponsor isn't going to make a disc that there is no market for to give Dave something to throw at one or two events. Anybody who would be good enough to win an event like this (unless the top players ignore it and the field is a joke) will be in the same boat. Why top the size at 30cm? There is no Frisbee that I can think of that is that huge. It's arbitrary numbers that in the end don't change anything becasue the golf discs that are in production are made to PDGA specs and that isn't going to change for one event. Even if somebody DID make a disc just for this event, how would it be approved? I mean, there would have to be an approval process for them, right?
BTW, the rim can be 2.75cm instead of 2.6cm. Does that get the Gateway Ninja in?
Social Media isnt the be all and end all, but with a new sport that skews towards a younger player and fan base, as disc golf does, it is fairly significant.
To that end, I just checkedband their Facebook page only has 433 likes. They have also disabled all comments. Not good news for them.
