Golf timing rule change
4 years ago
North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

Hello everyone, the timing rules for Golf categories changed a lot. Instead of "Timing starts when you select 'OK' after Mii Selection.", it is now "Timing starts on the first "A"-press on the preview of the first hole."

I retimed ALL 242 old Golf runs (incl. Obsolete ones). Runs without video got minus 8 seconds applied (the most common difference between the old and new timing), but luckily most videos were still available.

This rule change ONLY applies to pure local Golf categories that only include one course, in detail:

IT APPLIES TO: -18 hole runs -9 hole runs -3 hole runs -Golf Challenge runs (Category Extension)

IT DOES NOT APPLY TO: -IL-Golf runs (Pro Class/Max Level/All Stamps) -All courses runs -Training Golf runs -9 hole Online Co-Op runs -3 hole Online Co-Op runs -Bingo Golf Only runs (Category Extension) -All Golf Tour runs (Category Extension) -Speedgolf runs (Category Extension) -Quack% 3hole% runs (Category Extension) [-All other categories that are not Golf only]

There are 2 main reasons for this change:

  1. It eliminates all "loading RNG" at the beginning of a run. When you press "OK" after Mii Selection the amount of time the game needs to load the course/message that comes before it differs a lot and this can cause time differences of up to 2 seconds. The first load is no longer included in the timing this way.
  2. It is no longer required to exit out of the course entirely to start a new run, so this new timing method is an alternative to a restart timing.

Thanks to this we can apply milliseconds to tied WRs now. (For this reason the "Timing ends when the ball fully disappears in the cup on the last hole, not hopping out (or "Give Up" appears on screen).", which is more precisely formulated than before.)
