2. Specific Game Rules

Golf – Draft’Em

Game Description

Users participate in a live real-time snake draft to build a team of 4 golfers.
The aggregate score of the user’s best 3 golfers determines their score in the contest.
The user with the lowest total score wins.

Game Style Explained

  • The draft follows a snake format (order reverses each round).
  • Draft order is randomly determined.
  • Users select golfers from the tournament player pool.
  • Once selected, a golfer cannot be selected by another user.
  • If a user fails to pick within the time limit, the app auto-selects the highest ranked golfer.

Scoring

  • The leaderboard updates in real time.
  • Score = best 3 golfers’ aggregate score.
  • Withdrawal / Disqualification = +15 penalty.
  • Missed Cut = +12 penalty for each remaining round.
Example: If a golfer misses the cut after Round 2 in a 4-round tournament:

(Score R1 + Score R2) + (+12 Round 3 penalty) + (+12 Round 4 penalty)
