How Bag Tags Work in Our League 🥏
Bag tags are a fun way to track player rankings and add a competitive edge to our disc golf league. Here's how they work:
- 🏷️ Tag Assignment: Each player is assigned a unique bag tag with a number and custom artwork. Lower numbers are better!
- 🎯 Up for Grabs: In each league event, all participating players' bag tags are "up for grabs."
- 📊 Ranking by Performance: After the event, bag tags are redistributed based on players' scores. The best-performing player gets the lowest-numbered tag, and so on.
- 🔄 Tag Exchanges: If you outperform a player with a lower-numbered tag, you'll exchange tags with them.
- 🛡️ Defending Your Tag: If you perform well enough to keep your current tag number or better, you've successfully "defended" your tag.
- ⏳ Inactive Tags: If you miss two league events in a row, you forfeit your tag.
- 🆕 New Players: Newcomers receive their tag at the end of the list after their first event.
🏆 Tiebreaker Rules:
In case of ties, we use the following criteria to determine tag distribution:
- Number of league events played in the current league (more is better)
- Average score across all events played in the current league (lower is better)
- PDGA number (lower is better)
🏁 End of Season: At the end of the season, your final bag tag will be permanently displayed on your ElevateUT Disc Golf Leagues account as a testament to your performance.
Remember, bag tags are all about friendly competition and bragging rights. Good luck, and may the best player earn the #1 tag! 🥇
Tag History
Adjusts collar against the winter chill, voice gravelly with memory
I'd heard whispers about Art Dye's twisted junipers long before I saw them myself. December 21st, 2023 - the kind of night where shadows have weight and frost patterns tell stories. That's when Noir Oracle first emerged.
Ancient spirits, disturbed by modern construction, found kinship in winter's bite. The way I figure it, they needed a voice - and winter needed eyes. The fusion was inevitable, like ice claiming a pond in December.
First signs were the geometric frost patterns around lost discs. Perfect shapes, impossibly precise. Each one a window into what was... or what might be. Started calling them "Oracle Marks" in my case files. Players would find their discs surrounded by these crystalline prophecies, each one a puzzle piece in a larger mystery.
The entity - Noir Oracle - watches from the juniper shadows now. Patient. Ancient. Reading fortunes in frost and whispering warnings through winter wind. They're protective of Art Dye's old powers, but there's wisdom in their cryptic guidance... if you know how to look.
Takes long sip from thermos
Tag #12 carries their essence now. And between you and me? Sometimes the biggest mysteries aren't about what's been lost... but what's been found.
