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! 🥇
Winter Sovereign's Current Holder
Tag History
Adjusts frost-crusted beard, eyes gleaming with northern pride
HAR! Gather 'round, for I've witnessed something remarkable at the Creek today! The Winter Sovereign, Tag #47, has chosen young Jonah as its bearer - a trial by winter's first snow, no less!
Though the field averaged below par, our young warrior stood strong with a +1, like a sapling bending but not breaking in the northern winds. Two mighty birdies showed the old magic stirring - an 850-rated round that rose 39 points above their known strength!
Leans forward, voice dropping to a whisper
The Sovereign sees something in this one - potential raw as winter itself. Aye, they may not have claimed the lowest score today, but remember: the North doesn't crown its leaders for a single victory, but for the strength to rise again after each storm.
Raises horn in salute
Mark my words, this is but the first frost of their journey. The Winter Sovereign watches, waiting to see if Jonah's heart carries the same ice-forged resolve that once united the clans. Next week brings new chances to prove worthy of such ancient power!
HAR! The wind whispers of greater tales to come!
Adjusts beard crusted with frost, eyes gleaming in firelight
HAR! Gather 'round, you southern throwers, and let me tell you of the Winter Sovereign. Born in the longest winter these old eyes have seen, when the snows piled higher than giants and the wind howled secrets only the wolves could understand.
I was ranging beyond the Wall when I first caught sight of them, standing in that ancient weirwood grove. The old magic, thick as frozen honey, swirling 'round them like a living thing. Last of their noble line, they were - raised by bannermen who remembered what honor meant in the North.
Takes long drink from horn
You should've seen them during the Great Blizzard! While lesser folk huddled in their keeps, the Sovereign walked among the storms like they were dancing with an old friend. The wolves - aye, the direwolves themselves - followed their lead, helping unite the scattered clans when no one else could.
Leans forward, voice dropping to a whisper
Now they stand among us, Tag #47, carrying the weight of winter's crown with the same quiet strength that saved us all. Mark my words, you'll see that same power on our courses - patient as ice, fierce as a wolf's heart, and true as the old gods themselves.
HAR! The wind whispers their name already - Winter Sovereign, come to remind us all what it means to throw with the North in your blood!
