some Redditor said:uDisc on the other hand is the review equivalent of Youtube comments.
This may already have been linked here, but her's some discussion on reddit regrading the quality of reviews and reliability of ratings on DGCR vs U-Disc

I appreciated:I lol'd
My experience within the UDisc review reality is that
Course > 4.7 = genuinely fun course. Likely good amenities, mix of longer holes, multiple tees, etc. This is the 4+ star rated courses on DGCR. The elite courses often end up in the 4.8 and 4.9s.
4.5-4.7 = very good courses, maybe an odd hole or two, or slightly fewer amenities. A great course that is sadly all Par 3s or very limited longer holes. Someones a great course that is long or technically challenging ends up here too (Iron Hill, for example). This is the 3.5-4ish on DGCR range
4.2-4.4 = worth playing if you're passing through, often has one key amenity missing (no tee signs, no benches/trash cans, only one pin or tee...even a great 9-hole course will end up here) or some weird layout elements. This is the 3.0-3.5 range for DGCR.
4.0 - 4.2 = Wouldnt go out of my way for, but, if its easily off a highway or in my area already, worth trying a few times. These are the open field courses or weird legacy courses where they crammed 18 holes into. This is all the course in the 2-3 range on DGCR
<4.0 = You're about to experience one abysmal element of a course. It either has no tee pads or ancient baskets or half the holes are down impossible tunnels or its a 9-hole course in the space of a football field. I play these mostly to see what was so bad that it didnt end up in the 4's. The <2.0 rated courses on DGCR
<3.0 = There's no tee boxes or signs. Half the baskets are missing. Its an object course. Some wild **** that is usually worth checking out
does udisc have a feature where you can "exclude courses played"
does udisc have a feature where you can "exclude courses played"
Yes.
oh chit that would make finding the actual new courses a lot better
if you know do you just need an account or do you need the "pro" version
Honestly don't know. Don't recall what the heck I purchased. Think it costs me about $10/yr.
Try with just an account. If that doesn't work, I guess you need pro version. :\

UDisc is definitely inflated, but it's like a lot of corporate surveys. If you don't give something the highest possible rating, it means you didn't like it, and someone is going to be upset. You can't rate on UDisc the same as you do here. I did that once, gave a new course 3.5 stars on UDisc, and the course designer thought that meant I hated the place. I said no, I really like it a lot, I'm just being honest that it's not Muddy Run. But that isn't the point on UDisc. It's a very simple rating system. 5 means you had a good time, 4 or less means you did not, to varying degrees. It'd be better if UDisc replaced their stars with a simple thumbs up or thumbs down, like Netflix.
It goes against human nature to continue to play a course you give a low UDisc rating unless you're a masochist with no other courses to play. Most are going to give a good rating to courses they play regularly...
