There are many different leagues going in Northeastern Illinois that I thought it would be good to have one common calendar for them. I personally use Google Calendar to keep some organization for my personal schedule. I have created a public Discontinuum Leagues / Tournament Calendar in Google Calendar. Anyone using Google calendar can search for it in the public calendars and view it in their own. For those that have not yet played with Google Calendar, you're missing out. But that doesn't mean it is completely hopeless. For those in this category. The calendar can be viewed via the Northern IL Calendar (http://discontinuum.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=51) link in the left column.
I will try to maintain this calendar to the best of my ability, but to make it useful, I need the info to feed the calendar. If you want to have info about your favorite league posted on this calendar, please send me the following info (via PM or this thread).
- Dates and Times (Be specific, Do not say "Tuesdays at noon" unless you really go year round, 52 weeks a year).
- Course (if this is not constant, be sure to give me a list matching specific dates and courses).
- Format: Best Shot Doubles, Singles, etc.
- Cost (breakdown of cost is useful too. e.g. Lombard is $5 entry + $1 Ace Fund + $1 Course Use Fee = $7)
- Organizer or Point of contact, email, phone, etc.
Currently the calendar is Read Only.
This will be a useful resource. Thanks.
The link doesn't work.
Saw the same thing as Kurt. I went to your website and the disc golf link is not a link. Nice family picture.
Link fixed.
Alternatively, you can use the Northern IL Calendar link from the main menu here to see the same thing.
When I open the Northern Ill Calendar it is empty.
Huh. interesting... Its not for me. Anybody else care to report?

No data. IE 7.
works with IE 6
Works in Firefox 2.0.0.1
Tried it in IE 7 as well -- same result as Jon
Krupicka's doesn't display in IE 7 either.
There is a war between Google and Microsoft. If that feature is using "Canvas", IE 7 doesn't support it, but there are hacks available.
Bottom line -- IE sucks.
I have whatever the latest FF 2 & IE6. Works in both.
Alright Barish, what browser are you using?
Oops! Krupicka's does display. I went to it using the link he provided not recognizing he changed the link to the Northern IL Calendar.
Firefox works
IE 6 works
Opera 9.10 works
IE 7 doesn't work
When does Adler start back up?
For those IE7 users who can't get the Northern Illinois Calender (http://discontinuum.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=51) link working, I believe the link through my own web site (http://krupicka.org/discgolf/calendar.html) works.

I was using IE 7 yesterday. I have Firefox and it works nicely. Nice job on the calendar. On a thread drifting but tech appropraite issue-- I cannot post to the board nor send PM's with my Treo as I am getting the lite version of the board. Oh well.
were you not getting the lite version before? Also, what URL is it trying to access?

I'll mark it as 5pm until a plan is in place. What is the entry fee at Fairfield?

I heard that there was a doubles league at Oak Brook now. Does anyone have the info on that league?
no but i'd like to know...I haven't played oak brook since last summer, but it's right down the road from me and I enjoyed it. almost played their this morning but played Madison Meadows instead
Skunk was telling me that he was going to start having dubs on Thursday nights at Oak Brook at 6pm I believe. He mentiong something about the Kamm's getting involved on it too, so I'm not 100% sure who is running it.
He did tell me that it was going on tonight though.
Hey,
I went to Jericho lake last Sunday at 1:00 and there was no sign of any league. Did it tank that quickly?
Could be that there were a lot of people at Lombard for the IOS last Sunday.
Parkside leagues begin tomorrow, June 5.
(see attachment and please post if possible at local courses)
- Tuesdays
- $5/player ($4 to prizes/awards, $1 to course fund)
- $1/optional Ace Pool
- 5:45 check-in / 6:00 tee-off
can't it be thursday or friday serg? i wouldn't mind driving up there after work since its not far for me, but tuesday i always play libertyville (aka the ron and jim show).
i'm sure you will change the schedule to accomodate me :)
Any leagues on Thursday nights in the Joliet area or far south suburbs? The Joliet and Red Roc sites appear to be down and the calendar on the Discontinum site doesn't have anything. I will be on the far, far south side near the Indiana borderr until 430 and thought I would hit a local course, maybe Mokena, unless there was a league playing.
Joliet leagues are on Wed nights.
I'll be starting a Fall Best Shot Doubles league at Parkside on Saturdays @ 10:30 starting September 22nd.
$4 weekly entry fee, $2 for students and all women.
I'll be following a point system based on Discontinuum's with trophies for 1st through 3rd overall.
Hope to see everyone out there,
Kyle
I'm the coordinator for a doubles tournament at Buffalo Grove on Saturday, August 30. Would you post the info on your calendar?
Added to the Google Calendar.

Added to the Google Calendar.
Where is that Google calendar?
There is a link to it on the left side of the pages under "Northern IL Calendar". If there are other tournament league organizers that would like the ability to directly add events, please pm me with your email address that you use for google calendar and I will add permissions for you to do so.
btw Mirth. It looks like the column width on that link somehow is stuck to be really narrow. Can you fix that?
Mike - Not sure what you mean.... That button's the same width as all the others & the calendar wrapped into the site fits fine for me.
Using Firefox 3.0.5 on Windows
Ah. Firefox is blocked at work so I'm forced to use variants of IE. Lemme see if thats a setting for the wrapped link.....
Hmm... width in the wrapped link is set to 100%.
I set the iframe to 775px wide. Does that look better under FF3?
I don't know if you changed something or if Firefox is being finicky. But looks good now.
;D >:D ;D im startn doubles mon tha 9th at lipold park in crystal lake. probably about a 4 45 tee off and its $6 (doubs w/ ace)
and maybe a ctp if enough r there to play cool c u there
Thanks for running the league Fred!
On a side note.
I need to get a new thread goind for 2009.
