• Rules: Rough +1 and Strong Winds.

Good Luck with Round Three Everyone!

Sadly on an unofficial round… During today’s Daily Tournament at Kagura Mountain C.C. 9H Out Back Tee Mirror with No Wind.

Still a cool shot to do during an Online Tournament right? heh… I messed up the final hole with the safe short chip missing the cup. Should really just aim the high risk ones but I knew I had a chance at first place so tried to play it safe just couldn’t land the shot.

Edit: Then later in the day on the 18H Daily Tournament… The as fore mentioned Par 4 Ace with an SJI/SPI Shot did come and sooner than expected!

Whoa… Someone’s on Fire! Water Skip Drive into a Spiral Albatross in the Novice Daily tour for the new day…

Playing Tournaments badly though so I think I should stop playing before I mess up on the 18H Daily Tournament.

Over at the Mingol Community they have released the results of the DokomoDake Cup Tournament 2. Also the upcoming prizes for the 1.03 Update for participating in the tours so far were also revealed. Though we know of the DocomoDake Ball, there is now also a Club for participating in the second tour.

Wow my score held? I was sure someone would beat it as none of my chip-ins hit the pin for Spiral shot except the short chip on the first hole… Good thing the Tour History didn’t disappear again today, I’ve lost my history twice in the last two days… the bug still hasn’t been fixed and there was no patch for the game yesterday. When are they planning to fix it…?

So the rules are as they stated, Maple Leaf G.C. 9H Out Novice Only Big Cup Tour… I managed -15 the holes I birdied felt as if I could have got them if I impacted correctly or lucked out a little more but I think asking for -18 is too much and I probably spent all my luck on that tour as I messed up really badly on the other ones.

Yuna was the hero this time around. I know I disliked her before the game was out, but can’t really turn away from my ways of using the Mascot and Menu characters of the series… At the time I played it was only 3000 people. Later my friends played it reporting about 9000 people so I felt I might have been beaten.

Today’s results shows up with DocomoDake Cup 2 lit up with 45 Tour Points with the 1.5x Bonus! It really looks like I used up my luck on the first tour. 18H round I think I had a few Pars and finished with a Triple Bogey from a W.H and Unplayable. The ball went under a Golf Cart, why couldn’t we just move the cart somewhere else?

There were no other -15 which kind of surprised me, if there was I probably would have lost on points. Though I aimed to play the round based on long chips which was the reason for the Infinity Set… None of those long chips had any specials associated with them. It seems it is harder to hit the pin in this version compared to Mingol 5 on Big Cup. Long chips however is another story… Thank you static wind variable.

I really wish I could redo the last 4 holes… Needed to Perfect Impact two of those for the long chip and Ace… the one I did Perfect Impact on lipped the bucket, so if I had aimed it slightly more left it was probably another chip. Playing this tour reminds me of the old days of MingolP where my friends and I would be hitting -30 on Southern Alps big Cup, guess those times I thought Big Cup was just stupid really paid off…?

The DokomoDake Cup Tournament 2 Regulations have been announced… on January 15th the rules of the DokomoDake Cup is:

• Maple Leaf G.C. 9H Out
• Regular Tee
• Novice Only
• Rules: Big Cup.

There will be an update after the events. A shop item will become available after the update… Also the results of the top ranking players from the DokomoDake Cup Tournament 1 was also posted:

I didn’t know I made it into the top as the results of my past tournaments have disappeared. Even today they have disappeared so once again I cannot view my past games or the results of yesterdays Daily Tournaments so I had no clue…

Firstly it’s been two weeks since I received and started playing Minna no Golf 6. I started playing Daily Tournaments from around Tournament number 30 or 33 due to the Tournament history bug I cannot check anyway… However by the time I received the game a few of my friends have already obtained the Platinum Trophy, which means they’ve unlocked everything there is to do in the game.

So the bench mark for completing all the trophies [for those who are here looking for the Trophy translation] is that it takes about 10 days on average to complete without over exerting yourself. I’ve been slack on this aspect as I have been sticking with Satsuki as my main and working on things outside of this game.

Daily Tournament Number 71 is where for once my confidence in No-Miss Perfect Play is restored… or is it? The score I played is indeed the No-Miss score but the points looks a little out of the ordinary. The tournament rules were Kagura Mountain C.C. Back Tee Mirror with Rough+1. In Minna no Golf 5 Short Chipping for Points was a standard practice for raising points and winning with a No-Miss round which was where many of my stable wins came from…

Sparkly… Holy One, Two… Three? Wait what? You missed Three Eagles. When you think about it, if this was a No-Miss Perfect round then I would have hit -26… Missing the first Par 5 was a given since it’s the balancer for the luck used on the chips… Missing the second Par 5 was unexpected, the putt line apparently was fake and I didn’t come across it in training. As for the last miss… my Par 4 Drive attempt didn’t land on the green and the short chip sprayed. In the end I did make a nice 15m Eagle putt to finish the 18H.

I put the game down after the 9H OUT this time… Sometimes if things are going really well and you rush it you will ruin it. Relax, you can continue the Daily Tournament at any time as long as you don’t quit the game. After a short break I returned and calmly finished 9H IN which shows in the score card.

The strategy of short chipping for points with a perfect score is no longer applicable in Daily Tournaments, though that strategy maybe applicable for Real Tournaments but if you want to win Daily Tournaments you’ll need to hone in on your Long Chip skills. Minna no Golf 6 seems to be easier to aim for Long Chips too as there is no decimal wind modifier, Short Chips in comparison spray way too much than it should and means it is not reliable enough to maintain stability.

Who would have thought that Minna no Golf 6 is so popular in Asia, it is sold out at most stores around here… I guess a lot of people really enjoy the game offline since there is never the same amount of online players as the figures of sales represent.

Anyway I have two extra copies of the Asia version of the game if anyone is looking for it. I will send them out with postage for 65 USD [PayPal] with Express Mail Service. The PlayStation Vita sets are already going to two people.

I realised that if anyone is looking to play both Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational and Minna no Golf 6 the Asia version is their best bet as they can also pick up the Asia version of Hot Shots Golf when released and will not require changing of accounts to switch games or multi-region downloadable content issues. That’s if they release Hot Shots Golf to Asia region again…

The prize for the event also comes, along with the fix that messed up the Daily Tour results since the event started. Download it once it is available…

Happy New Year Everyone, the Minna no Golf 6 Daily Tournament has reset… Today is also the first day of the DocomoDake Event. You will find the first tournament of today’s daily the first one is the DocomoDake tournament. Also the in game shop has a 30% off sale during the event.

There is only one event tour, the other two are the regular tours… During the event tours the point rewards are doubled and the tour points are 50% more… Good Luck.

The rule for this tour is Hit Tree +1 Stroke. The normal tours number 46 is +1 Rough and 47 is Big Cup.

If you’re wondering what those numbers mean, the first one is how many people have participated and the second is the over all average score.

A few players have requested this. Though I feel it is a bit of a spoiler for first time players it may seem more like a frustration for those who are trying to obtain the achievement. So I’ve translated all the requirements for the King of Kings trophy.

Crown Challenges are basically the normal challenge mode but you have to apply to clear the special conditions yourself. The first ones are easy, but there are a few that require you to obtain loyalty or equipment to achieve. If you’ve finished the challenges and are in need of this information continue on in this post. If you don’t want to spoilt it for when you get the game then don’t…
