The Pigeon System (Social Network) The Pigeon System is the social backbone of the app. It controls who can invite whom to games: - **Duffer**: Every new user starts as a Duffer. - **Pigeon**: When User A follows User B AND User B follows User A back, they become mutual Pigeons. - **Invitation Rule**: Only mutual Pigeons can invite each other to games. - **Purpose**: Prevents spam invitations and ensures you only play with golfers you actually know. **Why "Pigeon"?** In golf slang, a "pigeon" is someone who's easy to beat — but in Pigeon Khaos, being a Pigeon means you're connected and ready to play. ### 2.
