it funny...someone said after one day of mini golf that 97% of the games played on that day was mini golf.

Now no one is playing it at all...

funny that.

and yes, I know the problem, everyone knows the holes. I will say one thing

I told you so. I told you that we needed new holes but you were against me 110% saying it was to much for nick.

Well now no one is playing it so this brings back my argument. WE NEED NEW HOLES SOONISH (month or so)

AND WE SHOULD HELP NICK FOR NEW IDEAS!! HE CAN'T DO IT BY HIMSELF

So...lets make this post a post full of IDEAS for new golf holes

Copied from 'Mini Golf!!!!!!!!' thread:

nick said:
Although it's just a side game it is testing a lot of new features (hence being labeled beta).


Pool is still the main feature of this site. Mini Golf is just a bit of fun on the side.

Personally I think the Golf game is just right as it is; fun to play on your tea break, but not too overpowering over the pool games. I think the Premium upgrade will be given priority for now.

Who knows...there might be a golf update in the Premium version .

i totally agree we need more holes because people have mastered them all if nick decides to make some new holes i recommend having some holes what can't be mastered.

That was a joke dude (look further into that thread)

I'm finding golf busier everyday and getting more and more addictive as time goes on.

I initially agreed that it would be good to have more holes, however after playing the game and chatting with the people who play it everyday, its clear that new courses would be preferable.

When you take the time to play a few rounds, it soon becomes clear that it would be unfair to take away the origional course when so many (like me) are still trying to perfect it.

Games between 4 people who are all capable of 11 shot rounds are great fun!

Yes, adding new courses is possible and will be added eventually. However the longevity of mini golf is low - it's basically a single player game but it does attract new people who can then learn how to play.

There's been over 5000 rounds this weekend alone. Maybe it's because it was 7:30 on a Sunday morning?

I can't give a date for new holes as work is I'm concentrating on premium now.

Yes, maybe more holes in a couple of months.

As i came to get better at the game i believed the longevity to be quite low as well, but now i've chatted to some of the better and keener players i'm not so sure.

4 player games with good player (regular 11-12 scorers) is great fun and much more addictive than initial games would suggest.

I know there are plenty of ideas put forward but i'll throw mine in anyway.

Have each course last a set time (say quarterly), so players have a target to aim for and know when the games will change, and keep a running top 10.

Actually, there's no plan or need to remove courses. The holes are downloaded as required so the game initial download size will not be increased with new courses. Existing members may tire of courses but, of course, new users can enjoy them.

I would like a full 18 hole course too.

We could also have an overall table combining the scores of all the courses.
