You don't have to have points... just $$ to go to worlds.

You get invited to the Worlds earlier if you have the needed points. However, not enough of those invitees register to close the tournament so they have open registration after that. You could be rated 500 and still get in worlds.

Ill be going and playing either rec or int, not sure yet, depends if I can work out these few inconsistancies I have seemed to pick up. Played in Colubus last week and it was a hott mess. My rating is rec but I feel I could fair decently in inter so we will see. But I'll definately be going, no questions about it. I'm itching to play in a big tournament like that one

If I was on the fence between playing rec or intermediate I would play rec. The last two years I played rec and had a good time because I was able to compete. The intermediate field is very good at this tournament and people who normally would play advanced in local tournaments play down a level. But I think the intermediate this field will be very large and lots of fun especially when people notice early on that low rated players are moving up. Hopefully it encourages more to move into intermediate (I know my dad is a 868, mike buchanon is in the low 800's and both of them moved up to intermediate). In the end it is the same price so you might as well play up (I know I changed my mind as my advice)
either way I'm with you...can't freakin wait for april!

True True Matt... and it says this year will have the biggest payouts EVER so I'm even more stoked! Let those baggers from advanced play down a level, if we play hot in intermediate like we usually do we'll crush 'em anywayz ;)
LOL so far you are the highest rated player in Intermediate Matt =P

thanks for pointing that out timmy...i pride myself in my exceptional bagging skillz. I also pride myself on having the highest rating and getting the lowest place. Stupid hot round at Monroe is inflating my number. It really seems like BG has their act together much better this year then last year. I expect this to be better then the last two years. Plus my buddy Jason Miller is dying me a disc for my dad. If you guys are looking for discs with specific dyes on them he lives in BG and is amazing at dying discs. this is his facebook page, I hope you can access it http://www.facebook.com/pages/FLY-INK/389227130346#/profile.php?id=1137784389

Not to offend any of these people if you fall into one of these categories, but I value my life, nostrils, gas mileage, sanity, and my ears. Well, I guess I could put earphones on if you like country music....

Sign me up, I can deal with smoke, it also cancels out number 4 on my list because once my nose is filled with smoke I won't be able to smell a thing. I can also drive, civic, can fit four with luggage, but I don't allow non-electronic cigs in my car, no fire...so we would have to do smoke breaks on the way down if I drove. You registered yet?

So 4 rounds of disc golf, players pack, and payout. You could leave with 10+ discs easy.
You helping run the show down there Miller? When will we know what discs are in the players pack?
