Ask Me Anything

[TalbotTrojan]

Something tells me we're not dealing with cute fairies singing and cooking. I imagine smelly sicko lowlifes that bang strangers in the woods.

That reminds me of the homeless guy that I have seen on the course I play most often. He either wants marajuana, meaning he picked a good place even if I can't help him, or he wants gay sex, which freaked me out when he shouted out I'm gay in the middle of my drive on the second hole. I didn't play that course for at least two weeks after that. He has gone missing since then.

So Cy, why do disc golf courses have to be so shaddy like this? Isn't this just preventing the growth of the sport?

One day I'm going to tell my grandchildren about this thread drift.

[cydisc]

Have I mentioned how proud I am of the current state of this thread?

Every time I finish on a blind hole I holler, "QUEER!" to the group behind me. They think I'm saying, "clear". I have a little laugh and continue on.

Is the hokey pokey what it is all about?

For some reason I've always thought that meant something similar to dry humping or masturbation. Perhaps that is mostly what life is all about. Or just what usually happens for most people.... or most intarweb nerds :\

My life sucks.

Cydisc,

Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry?

This could be a thread for the ages, yet it is still so young.

Hi cydisc -- long-time first-time.

A course near me I'd rather not name, let's call it Freelong, has 4 or 5 holes that seem to be 1-shot holes, but they are nearly impossible to reach in one shot. That is, they're too long or too tight or the shape is too strange, or some combination of those 3.

As such, a standard 915-980 player will rarely get a 2 on these holes. I imagine the score breakdown would look something like:
- If you go for a 2 slash throw an aggressive drive:
-- 5% 2's
-- 50% 3's
-- 45% 4's or worse
- If you lay up slash play safe:
-- 0% 2's
-- 80% 3's
-- 20% 4's

I can't decide what to think of these holes.

As you can see, the *smart* thing is to lay up slash play safe. But as you well know, players are dumb.

Should a designer take into account the stupidity of the players when designing a hole?

Is there a place for 1-shot holes where the smart play is to lay up and take a ho-hum 3?
