Ten Wednesdays, one cursed tag, and a course that treats par like a rumor. Week 8 is Old Grudges, the fellowship is tired, and I am still holding the clipboard.
The Quest, Briefly
Welcome back to the booth. The Bag Tag is, technically, a numbered piece of metal. Emotionally, it is the One Ring, and everyone in this league is treating it that way. Second Breakfast @ Cedar Hills runs Wednesdays at Cedar Hills in Raleigh, NC, with card-flex tee times from 8AM to 4PM. The first event was 9/23/2026 at 12:00 PM, and the season is in its back half.
Late joiners, the fellowship needs you
We are in week 8 of 10. Late joiners are still welcome. Yes, you will be starting from a higher tag number. No, nobody will laugh at you for showing up on a Wednesday with a bag full of mismatched discs. Probably.
One Tag to Rule Them All
The One Tag is a performance-ranked token of honor that passes from bearer to bearer as the season goes on. Hold it, lose it, reclaim it. That is the whole saga. Losing the tag is a defeat. Taking it back is a comeback worthy of a choir of Lorekeepers at the Second Breakfast fire.
The Tag changes hands on rankings, not on vibes
Your tag moves as your results move. Last week, Hidden Door compressed the rankings, so the gap between you and the leader may be smaller than it looks on the clipboard.
What It Costs to Join the Fellowship
Prize money buy-in (optional)
$5.00
Super ace (optional)
$2.00
The base entry is $5.50. The optional add-ons are for those who want a shot at the pot. The CTP add-on is free, which is the only generous thing about the Mordor-adjacent hole 9.
The Ace Pot and the Guarantee
The current ace pot is $225.67, all of it contributed by players. The ace pot guarantee is enabled, with a $50.00 minimum, provided by FL!PT Leagues, the league platform. The guarantee is not provided by the disc shop.
The guarantee is not active right now, because contributions have already passed the $50.00 minimum. That means the pot is not stuck. If contributions ever fall below the minimum, the displayed amount can look frozen at the guarantee until new contributions push it past that line.
Where a guarantee top-up goes
Any guarantee top-up is credited to the winner's Bonus Account. The Bonus Account is registration-only and is not withdrawable to PayPal or disc shops.

Week 8, Old Grudges, is on the card now. Last week, Hidden Door had 9 players, an average score of +2, and no ace. Nobody got the pot, so the pot kept growing like a bad habit.
Cedar Hills: The Dark Forest of Hole 7 and 8
Cedar Hills is an 18-hole, tight, wooded, hilly course. The listed water is on hole 7, where a miss can cost a disc as well as strokes. Hole 8 is the toughest hole for league players, averaging +0.83 over par, and it comes right after the water. Hole 15 is the easiest by league scoring, and it still averages +0.71 over par.
Treat par as a good score
Every hole plays over par for league players on average. Plan for holes 7 and 8. A layup to a safe spot often beats a forced run at the basket. Check the alternate pin positions on the tee signs or the City of Raleigh course map before you throw.
The Standings Have Thoughts
The palantir has been consulted. Bradley Bushman leads RPA with 234 points. Troy Toler leads RAH with 194. Cameron Collar leads RAD with 136. Brian Taylor leads RAF with 132. em eason leads RAG with 114. Devin Drinan leads RAE with 97.
The tight race: RAE
Brandon Mayes is up 2 spots to second with 62 points. Lee Kennedy sits at 57 and Joel Branscome at 52. Five points separate second through fourth, and that is the closest fight in the standings right now.
Chase Fernandez moved up 1 to fifth in RAE, and Brandon Mayes is the biggest mover of the week. Points are series points, and the leaders are still the leaders for now.
