Pick 5 golfers. After the tournament, winnings are added up and the most wins. If there are ties, then the tie breakers kick in. You can change all the way up to the 3rd round but there are penalties for changing picks after each round.

Basically, if your golfer misses the cut, you'll change him, but if he ends up winning it, you'll take a hit the closer to the final round you change. After final round, it's done.

So pay attention, and have some faith in your picks if they aren't doing well come Saturday. You change them and change it back you get penalties, and it wouldn't help as much.

The game rules are very specific and above is the abbreviated versions.

For those of you that do not understand how the FanGolf system works, let me try to explain it. Maybe the way I put it will make more sense.

- Winner is selected by the person who has the most earnings in the tournament. (The total of how much the players they picked get paid).
- Before the tournament started (which is considered prior to midnight in the time zone of the tournament) you select 5 players
- After round 1 and before midnight prior to round 2 in the time zone of the tournament you can drop any, all, or none of your original 5 players and pick up new players (deduct 15% from their earnings)
- After round 2 and before midnight prior to round 3 in the time zone of the tournament you can drop any, all, or none of your original 5 players and pick up new players (deduct 35% from their earnings)
- After round 3 and before midnight prior to round 4 in the time zone of the tournament you can drop any, all, or none of your original 5 players and pick up new players (deduct 60% from their earnings)

If there is a tie in the amount a person's players won, then the tie breakers are as follows:

[color="#1C2837"][size="2"]1. Net Earnings
If Net Earnings are the same, then the system looks at:

2. Lowest Number of Picks by the user
If the lowest number of picks by the user is the same, then the system looks at:

3. The Earliest Timestamp of the user's last pick[/size][/color]

[size="2"][color="#1C2837"]----------------[/color][/size]
[size="2"][color="#1C2837"]If you still want to learn how it works, I'd recommend reading this thread. I played HEAVILY during the first half of the '08 season and did well. For a single tournament there is a fair amount of luck involved, but maybe if you follow how it works in the long run you can pick up on some strategies.[/color][/size]

Hmm I went to the website to change a player and it said 25 minutes day 1 15% difference but after I changed it says 35% :-(

[cheeser]

Anyone else's screen say "not logged in" after clicking the link up top? Obviously I'm logged into the site but I can't see my picks.

[FATC1TY]

Nope.. Works for me.. Infact, I think I'm doing surprisingly well!

Try logging in on the WRXFAN site.. Or log in here, and then click the top again to see if it works.

[bub72ck]

Are the winners determined after Augusta or afterthe PGA?

[squishyy]

Good luck all!

[jdubbs]

Why cant I see any stats?

Im logged in, and made my picks before Thursday. I can see my picks but no stats anywhere???

[Gxgolfer]

There are no stats till the end of the tournament.

[jdubbs]

Really?

I doesnt even update how my players are doing?? Cause it shows everyone as E still. I thought it would at least show the scores of my players?

[peterbride]

I am ranked 371. Is that good???? Hahaha why the hell did I pick Kaymer?

[miamigolfman]

I'm in!

[gken]

this is pretty cool, i just playing it to see if i know anything about the players and the course.

[FATC1TY]

Now the hard part... Risk the money of a solid finish, or take the hit on a big payout player??

Mickelson is costing me.. Do I swap the guy for Cabrera at a discount?

[FreddyG]

My team:

Schwartzel -15%
Cabrera -0%
Mickelson -0%
Choi -60%
McElroy -60%

[studatnu]

Tiger - Original Pick
Luke Donald - Original Pick
Phil Michelson - Original Pick
Rory - Original Pick
Choi Swapped out -35%

[bub72ck]

Choi, Westwood, Mickelson, and Wood were original. I swapped Johnson for Rory last night.

[Ghost_Orchid]

I had TW, Phildo, Donald, KJ and AK...no swapping.

[PingG10guy]

Tiger
Immelman
Choi
Micky
Watson

all original picks...

[FreddyG]

I imagine anyone with Schwartzel from the beginning will be in the money or very close - there can't be too many.

[teamarctic]

Tiger original
rory original
westwood original
rose original
ogilvy -35%

i was looking real goo until rory dropped out of the sky!

[HDoes]

Tiger
Luke Donald
Stricker
Phil
Rory (35%)

Also looking good until Rory self-destructed.

[Jdavenp3]

Tiger
Bubba
Rory
Phil
Westwood

I thought I had an awesome chance going into today----Somehow golf manages to punish me even when I am not on the course. I love this game!
