Well done! I guess they haven't made their way down to the Intermediate division yet for the CAC because my rating hasn't shown up yet.
Sounds like there were people in that division that had no business playing in Rec if your rating is 884 and they would have beaten you. To each his own but I personally wouldn't play down a division even if there were a bunch of guys that chose to sandbag. It's not cool for those individuals who are Rec caliber players. For some of those true Rec caliber players, that may well have been their first tournament. I'm sure it wasn't exactly fun to get blown out of the water. Tournaments should be fun for everyone and never at the expense of those who are less skilled at the sport.
Up 1pt to 1010
Pretty good considering 3 good events weren't turned in by the deadline so I only had 5 rounds with one being a 965 that stayed in my rating. Has I known this I would have expected a little drop so I am happy to have gone up 1.
Next update I am looking to 1013.

Scratch what I said in my last post Josh. I read Rec but was thinking Novice. :doh: You'll be fine to play in Rec.

How do they rate you? And what should I expect going into my first two tournaments in the coming weeks?

Some of you have very good ratings!

It varies. I try to compare to last years at the same tourney's and it's different. There are SSA's but it depends on how other players do playing the same layout.
So I went up like three points.
I also caught a mistake in the ratings since two good rounds of mine were not given official ratings for some unexplained reason. Went back to the tournament page and saw that the intermediates, despite having enough people rated well enough in the Intermediate divisions alone, were not given ratings for the first two rounds. I emailed PDGA about it and guess what, they are only going to look into it for the next ratings update. Guess I am going to sandbag as much as I can until the PDGA gets its act together.

The unexplained reason is the TD did not provide all the necessary information to the PDGA. It is not really the PDGA that needs to get their act together. GIGO!
BTW, with an 867 rating, you are 32 points away from the next division change. It seems doubtful that including those two rounds would move your rating up that dramatically.
Enjoy "sandbagging"!

up 6 points to 921 ... I've gone from 902 to 915 to 921 this year ... been playing more consistently, and have been able to mostly avoid sub-900 golf in 2010 ...
Up one more point to 957. I'm going to get there even if it is one point at a time. 4 updates per year, 42 points to go...I should be 1000 rated in just over a decade.

Already playing intermediate. Jokes on you.
Oh, also talked to the PDGA and the TD. PDGA's problem, not the TD's.
