League Rules

Seasons & Registration

A season is a series of tournaments played as one long competition — each week has its own draft and scoreboard, and every week's score counts toward the season standings.
When the commissioner opens registration, the season appears on every player's home page. Seasons have a set number of spots — once full, registration closes and the season disappears for everyone who isn't in it.
Registering commits you to every tournament in that season.
You can un-register (freeing your spot) until the season's first draft starts. After that, only the commissioner can remove you.
Half of each weekly pot rolls into the season pot, which the season champion takes at the end (see Payouts).

A one-off is a standalone contest for a single tournament — it isn't part of a season, and its scores never count toward season standings.
Open one-offs appear on the home page. Sign up while spots are open; when the roster fills, the draft order is randomized and the draft starts automatically.
The same drafting, pricing, and scoring rules apply for the week.
The winner takes the entire pot that week — nothing rolls into a season pot. Ties split it evenly.
Mulligans are a season feature and aren't part of one-off play.

Each week a snake draft is held for the upcoming tournament.
The default draft is 6 rounds — each team drafts 6 golfers.
In odd rounds (1, 3, 5) picks go in order; in even rounds (2, 4, 6) the order reverses.
In a season's first week, draft order is randomized when the draft starts. Every week after, the previous week's standings set the order: last place picks first, winner picks last.
The commissioner can adjust the roster and order before a draft starts.
If it's your turn and you have golfers in your queue, auto-draft will pick the top available queued golfer for you.

Each golfer has a price based on their Official World Golf Ranking average points, rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Golfers with no ranking data are priced at $1.
The commissioner may adjust prices before the draft starts.
The sum of all drafted golfers' prices across all teams forms the weekly pot.

Scoring is based on actual strokes over 4 rounds (lowest score wins).
Of your 6 golfers, only the best 4 scores count toward your team total each week.
If a golfer misses the cut, withdraws, or is disqualified, they are assigned the highest (worst) score of any golfer that day for each remaining round after the cut.
The cut happens after round 2 by default.

Mulligans are a season-play option, handed out at the commissioner's discretion — in this league, one lucky team receives a mulligan each week by random drawing.
A mulligan lets you drop a golfer who missed the cut (or withdrew/was DQ'd) and pick up a golfer on the cut line.
The picked-up golfer replaces the dropped golfer entirely — all of their round scores count for your team.
The mulligan window opens after the cut is finalized and closes once cut-line golfers tee off in round 3.
If you don't use your mulligan, it carries over to the next week's draft.
Mulligans can be transferred between teams by the commissioner, and a team can hold more than one at a time.

The commissioner can swap a golfer on your roster after the draft if needed (e.g. a late withdrawal).
The swap fee equals the replacement golfer's price and is added to the weekly pot.
The commissioner may waive the swap fee at their discretion.

The weekly pot = total cost of all drafted golfers + any swap fees.
50% of the weekly pot goes to the weekly winner (lowest team score).
The other 50% rolls into the season pot.
If multiple teams tie for the weekly win, the weekly prize is split evenly among them.
At the end of the season, the season winner (lowest cumulative score across all weeks) takes the entire season pot.
