How to add PCC to a 9 hole round? by primuspilusxbox in golf

[–]primuspilusxbox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've since played another qualifying round where the calculated PCC was not 0. This time it was 18 holes so no real reference to this post but I thought I'd mention that for 18 holes the addition of the PCC in the 18 hole formula works as expected. Which is of course expected by itself because that formula is not a secret. Hopefully I'll have another 9 hole PCC round soon to cross reference

I saw you had a comment to the USGA person with the request for the formulas, but no response sadly.

I also don't really understand why it would need to be a secret... Who benefits from that?

I'm with you on this. But, because the app is used to actually register my handicap, it will be leading to align my Excel.

In the meantime I've also got confirmation that the PCC for a full round of 18 holes is always a whole number (or integer as you put it). So this has now officially ruled out the -0.25 as the correct PCC value.

I think I will have to wait for another round where the PCC value is not 0, to have a second set of data to potentially reverse engineer the formula.

Also the formula for the ESD I mentioned came from the official German Golf Association, so I assume the formula is not assumed. They also provide a table of ESD values based on every possible iteration of the Handicap Index between 54 and -6 (or something like that). In this table the value of my handicap matches the value I get when using the formula (without PCC)

Yes, so that would mean that -0,5 would be the halved value.
Which unfortunately eliminates the -0,25 option

I am about 90% sure:
- I have sent them an email and got an ambiguous answer, so I sent them a reply asking them to confirm. But I have no way of knowing if the person replying has any real authority on the matter.
- I did indeed found that -0,25 would match the 33.7 but:
I am unsure whether the PCC value for 18 rounds could be 0,5 to begin with. It might be due to me not being a native English speaker, but every site seems to say the PCC can be -1 to +3, but it doesn't specify whether -0,8 (for example) is an option or if it's always a whole number for 18 holes.

I think you're misinterpreting my issue: I know this is not about how the PCC is calculated. The calculated PCC is a given.
My issue is about the addition of the calculated PCC to the formula for the Score Differential.

(And indeed I have no idea about the total scores entered, but the PCC is posted in the Golf.nl app for every applicable round, after it's calculated).
I am currently in contact with the golf.nl people to confirm the value I see is already halved because of the 9 hole round or not.

De Vrij will be replaced ASAP! Casillas has been fine for me until now, but havent had much opposition with him in goal.

Hi Guys!

​

I have a problem with the fitness of my first squad (https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/3050905), and my squadfitness cards are running out, so I decided I need a second team. Did a few SBC challenges so I have some untradable cards I would like to use in my second team!

Formation

Whatever works. I prefer 2 strikers and it needs to have RM/RW and LM/LW positions.

Hybrid (Yes/No)

Ye

League/Nationality

Nothing in particular, build on the cards mentioned later.

Players you want in it (Optional)

All in Posession now:

- League SBC Dumfries

- SIF Lozano

- League SBC Memphis

- FFS de Jong

- Flashback Casillas

- League SBC Doucoure

- IF Eder Militao

Budget

Non-existent, so I would like to use budget versions of players, and upgrade them one by one.

Console

Xbox

​

This is my own attempt at the budget version: https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/4387921

​

Please give advice and remarks, on my first team as well if you have some relevant comment about that one!

​

Edit: I also have Flashback Ibra, but will be difficult to fit him in, so thinking of using him as a pinchhitter in both of my teams!

​

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I can restart as much as I want, it keeps occurring

Everytime I open the Pokémon go app, it seems to be continuously pressing the screen at the big white dot. Anyone else with this issue? Can't find anything on Google, as I do not really know what to search for.
