Yes, since 2015.

Is there any deeper meaning to the metanism being to remove a letter from the other seven cities? I mean, does it "mean" anything?
Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.
