we're going... we got our flights booked for $375 including tax....

that was after having an alert set up on Kayak for weeks and the price broke at 3 am... if you dont jump right away, you don't get the deal......

with that being said, nate and i are still homeless once we arrive. we would prefer to go in on a house with a group of people instead of paying $80-100 a night for scarce hotel accomodations... if anyone has any ideas or plans already in the works we'd love to get in on it. hit me up!

I noticed a few bigger names now in Masters. That was a surprise to me.

Also noticed Mr Dan Brown Jr holding onto 3rd in his division. Nice work.

Default worlds live stream?
http://discgolfplanet.tv/

Anyone tried their PayPerView?

Also, good call from the earlier poster who bet on M. Johansen as a sleeper pick...tho would Cameron Colglazier be the 1st major winner with a PDGA # in the 40k's?

Good luck Edge, Jessie, and the rest of the NW reps

No. In fact, I demanded a refund on my "lifetime membership". It turned out to be worthless, much like the alleged "lifetime PDGA membership".

I agree with you man, I love the coverage they have provided but at this point I paid for a membership that essentially can't be used on the most important event of the year. That to me was pretty underhanded.

Was it ever indicated that lifetime membership = free broadcasts?

In the beginning it was implied. Pay for a membership and get to see all the epic battles while supporting the web page. Just because it isn't written out in black and white does not discount how they colored it.

This was grossly disappointing. It's Livestream. Were it better technology or they hired professional commentators (Love ya, Rebecca!) that would be one thing. Oh well... at least I got Steve Ganz to change the refresh rate on the live scoring from 10 minutes to 5 minutes today. That seemed like a minor victory, anyway...

Well Im not bitter about having to pay a little ($7.95) more on top of my lifetime membership to watch some of the worlds. I was a little taken back that it would cost more at first, but it is still inexpensive entertainment to me. Small price to pay to watch some of the best in the world compete in my opinion.

Sam do you think "Livestream" would have worked in the Clackamas River Valley?
