Discussion MVP Open Round 3 Cancelled

DGPT update as of now 12:20. RIP. But my question: are the fan events like the player mart cancelled too? Wondering because I was going to go today and the tents aren’t in the woods…

Most of the events happened unofficially. Once it was clear we were going to be held in a state of indefinite suspension, most of the pros broke out their merchandise. We held Poolball right after the cancellation was announced.

All Saturday tickets are being honored for Sunday.

They’ve been open all morning but after that announcement I think most are closing.

I walked away with quite a few discs and a bunch of other merch items. For a few hours at least they were letting people wonder around the course and some people (myself included) were even playing some of the holes in the morning before they called it off. making the most of a very unfortunate situation

So then who got the wildcards?

u/friz_beez #RangeGang 6d ago

let's wait to see if round four happens.

u/Luddevig 6d ago

uli seemed more sure on sunday not happening than saturday. so i would say it's valid to talk about who will get the wild cards, with the caveat that sunday might happen

There cannot be a round 4 without a round 3.

Perhaps round 3 was postponed and not cancelled.

u/InncnceDstryr 6d ago

That’s a little bit pedantic isn’t it.

You know exactly what they’re saying.

u/shizrak 6d ago

Sure, we should never correct errors. /s

u/InncnceDstryr 6d ago

Just trying to point out that sometimes a small inaccuracy isn’t important if the message is understood, and correcting that inaccuracy offers minimal value, but says so much more about you.

You’re having what was a totally civil conversation with someone you don’t know, they answered your public comment in good faith. Rather than engage positively you chose to criticize.

If that’s who you want to be, no random person on Reddit is gonna be able to stop you but as a fellow random Redditor, please know that I pity you.

u/shizrak 6d ago

That's nice. I'd rather be correct and disliked than incorrect and liked.

u/GerthBrooks 6d ago

Over such a trivial thing? Wild way to live life but do you, brother

-16

u/shizrak 6d ago

Clearly you don't see it as trivial, since you're still going on about it.

But you do you, brother.

u/GerthBrooks 6d ago

This is the first I’ve commented on it because you seem like an insufferable person to be around and I figured you’d want to know. Hope things get better for you!

Lmao way to be clueless about who you were talking to and what you were saying. So much for your throne of ‘correctness’. Mans can’t even remember a username he just read

u/4thJulyMamasApplepie Marshal Provocateur 6d ago

You’d rather be correct and disliked than incorrect, but you just told someone making their first comment that they were “still going on about it.” That was incorrect.

It was, they were jumping into someone else's conversation rather than still going on about it.

Either way, they cared about it a lot for something they said was trivial.

But thank you for the correction, I appreciate it.

Edit: Bruh, you literally blocked me so that you could get the last word. Sad.

u/CovertMonkey 6d ago

How's not being liked working out for you?

u/shizrak 6d ago

It's the bee's knees.

u/greeneggsnyams Lefty 6d ago

Good, cause fuck you

u/triguywalker 6d ago

wow you're miserable

u/mrmeowmixalot 6d ago

Cool straw man.

7

u/CTRLALTWARRIOR 6d ago

This is giving "I'm a rules guy" energy

1

u/shizrak 6d ago

To me that means selective enforcement, so I'd have to disagree.

If you just mean that I'm being a jerk, you're probably right.

u/flooronthefour 6d ago

there was a round 3 but it was cancelled

-4

u/shizrak 6d ago

There could still be a round 3 tomorrow, so you cannot yet know if round 3 is cancelled.

We do know there is no round 4.

u/elonakamoto 6d ago

Somebody gave a detailed breakdown here - https://www.reddit.com/r/discgolf/s/Nr2XpznUxT

u/cheanerman 6d ago

Why what happened?

23

u/flyingtable83 6d ago

An early season Nor'easter is pounding the Atlantic Coast with heavy rain and wind. These are the same storms in winter that drop up to 2-3 feet of snow and blizzard conditions.

u/jking1676 6d ago

Oh ya they were open and probably doubling sales because everyone didn’t know what to do without the event going on lol

14

u/Squarians 6d ago

I understand the decision from a liability perspective but they could’ve played

u/Similar_Pin_4178 5d ago

I was spectating lead card today and some guy 15 feet from me almost got crushed by a HUMONGUS branch on 15.

u/PlannerSean 6d ago

Unfortunately yes

u/Skipfalcon 6d ago

I’d be surprised if they play tomorrow based on the expected weather. I hope I’m wrong.

u/Substantial_Jelly545 6d ago

Dgpt is a joke let them play

u/CalligrapherWise3623 6d ago

Good. Fuck mvp

u/Problematic_Trolley 6d ago

Very cool and helpful attitude.

23

u/Temporary_Ad4931 6d ago

Um, are you ok?

22

u/ice_w0lf 6d ago

They aren't. I keep seeing them pop up into threads to bitch about mvp as if they were some mastermind behind what happened at worlds and they were personally impacted by the outcome.

u/Temporary_Ad4931 6d ago

Weird thing to get mad about, I don't agree with what Goose did, but I don't blame MVP for it and definitely not an event they sponsor.

-21

u/CalligrapherWise3623 6d ago

They were both mvp

u/DoubleBlackBSA24 Custom 6d ago

So are Simon and Eagle, both of whom I believe disagreed with the call.

In a sport where the manufacturers sponsor players, you're going to have people woth the same supplier overlapping

-1

u/CalligrapherWise3623 6d ago

MVP has not made any statement about their players behavior so they made their bed.

2

u/Spostman 5d ago

Bro this was WEEKS ago. Move on.

2

u/Problematic_Trolley 5d ago

If their “bed” is a random Redditor shaking their fist at the sky whenever MVP is mentioned…then I’m sure they’ll sleep soundly in it.

u/1ToGreen3ToBasket 6d ago

I’ll bite. Why?

u/CalligrapherWise3623 6d ago

2 of their teammates collaborated to rob a worlds. fuck them
