Your scores do not necessarily follow a normal distribution when you have direct control over how poor you score but not how well you score. Clipping scores rated below your normal distribution is a way to reduce your ability to sandbag.Yes i get that. . but i have never understod the ""not counted," thing. . if i play a "to good for my rating round" will that be dropped to?

Jolt, no you never lose a good rating score only very bad ones. For most players it is around 100 points below your rating will not count against you. You can do the math to figure it out exactly, an extremely consistent player may drop rounds 80 points lower than their rating but that's pretty rare.
From the Competition Manual 3.03 B.9: "Deliberately seeking to manipulate one's player rating through intentional misplay or withdrawal." Subject to warning, DQ and likely 888 for the round score which drops a player's rating up to 5 points for 6 months. Pro players unlikely to tank rounds that drops them out of more, if any, cash prize to preserve their rating.Odd. . So Paiges 903 last round is 85points lower than her rating and might be dropped
She took a 7 on hole 18 . . a 6 and it might NOT have been dropped
I´m NOT saying that she did that on purpose. . but the fact that you CAN do that on purpose feels wrong to me. . every round, good or bad should count
Doesn't matter. The system is designed to prevent bagging your rating, not from finding ways to increase it because... you only get paid for your actual performance, not your rating. If you're not able to play up to a hypothetically inflated rating, you give up payout and rating points in your next events.Well that rule is hard to judge. . .if you have a really bad round, but not bad enough to get dropped. . so you miss one or two putts to GET that round dropped. . how will anyone but you know?
Again. . I´m NOT saying that she did that on purpose...but that 7 on hole 18 cost her max $200 but the round will be dropped
If she get to a 1000 that will give her MANY thousands of dollars. .
The fact that someone whose rating determines their entire division placement could possibly play a few hundred points below their rating and clean house in an easier division placement for months on the back of that single massively-awful rated round strikes me as far FAR worse.Odd. .

Someone's rating being a smidge higher because they gamed a round into being dropped is far better than someone's rating being 30-40 points lower because they gamed a horrific outlier into their calculation.
I don't understand why you can't buy a Fierce putter. They are very difficult to find and the few that I did were so expensive. I thought these new discs would be "female friendly" and that players augmented their income with revenue from their tour series discs. This makes no sense to me. Probably a lot of disappointed young girls out there.
Also, it appears Paul's wife is a good cook. (Just an observation since we're discussing Discraft)

I giggle inside every time I hear someone at a tournament say something like, "my rating says I'm 950, but I'm actually much better than that." Nope. Over time, and on average you're gonna shoot 950. And if you don't, the ratings will make the appropriate adjustment at next update. As I like to say, you can't trick the math. It's a formula. It has no feelings whatsoever.
I don't really disagree but I will add this. Many years ago, when I was much more active in the tournament scene, there were some courses that played to my strengths and I'd usually shoot 30-50 points above my rating. There were other courses that I didn't play well at all and would usually shoot at least 30-50 points below my rating. If I had been more selective and only played the courses that I played well instead of playing every tournament I could, my rating would have been higher. If I cared about my rating, I would have made different choices. Since I cared more about the competition and the experience, it didn't matter that much.
Dude Jeremy is a beast. I'd bet the guy has never spent time in his adult life out of shape, and that's building on... well... https://sites.google.com/site/gbfootbal/home/record-boards/all-time-record-leadersHaha.
If you watched the 2020 Dynamic Discs Open that took place a few weeks ago, you may have noticed that Jeremy Rusco, the host of the event, was standing in the background watching the proceedings. When I saw him, I thought, "dang, that dude looks like he is more physically fit than the players on the lead card!" And, particularly the player that you just mentioned.

lol... I don't care how bad or who Buhler is: 397 yards and 7 TD is a hell of a night. Rusco is also on another page on there as one of the school's All State qualifiers.
