i didn't know that the goal of mini-golf was to get the round out of the way as fast as possible. i understand there's courtesy involved with not stalling, but way B sounds like a good way to play if you hate playing mini-golf and want to do something else.

QFMFT.

Also it seems to me that the second way would be slower. Each person on the course playing a hole individually sounds like it would be slower than each person hitting individually and then everyone walking to their balls. It doesn't really matter who is the farthest so everyone who is saying "Well then you have to figure out who is the furthest away and that takes SOOOO long" is an idiot. Whoever gets to their ball first hits it, you don't need to break out the yard sticks.

Also note that almsot everyone who plays it the "correct" way calls it mini-golf, while people who play it the wrong way (way 2/b) call it putt-putt. I refuse to play anything called "putt-putt", sounds like a Special Olympics event. I wonder if there is a difference in courses as well; on the East Coast the courses are usually fairly elaborate and it would be really boring to wait for other people to finish. Also if would be really easy to cheat (by lying about your score), which would just be gay.

I think #2 is the perfect balance.

One extreme is everyone playing at the same time, which is just too chaotic.

And the other extreme would be, play the game to completion by yourself (all 18 holes) then the next guy does.

I think way 2 is alot like bowling, one player finishes their frame, then the next player finishes his frame.

Way 1 would be like everyone rolling their damn bowling balls at the same time.

I think way number 1 is actually for people who don't really wanna play the game in any sort of competitive manner, that way after they lose they can bitch about how it was just cause their balls got knocked.

If you play way 2 nobody can blame anything on anybody but themselves.

If you play way 2 nobody can blame their loss on anybody but their own inability to cheat properly since no one is watching them play or gives a flying [censored] what's going on so it's easy to shave strokes

way A has absolutely dominated the argument and has begun to dominate the poll. way B is anti-social and anti-fun.
