  I could play single games pretty normal but got disconnected three times in an alternate game, thx WGT. Go ahead and fix your system and by the way how about monitoring your system and sending alerts if something is not working correctly. At least this is what normal web services do.

  MainzMan:

  This will make you laugh.

  When I finally got to paste my card instead of the usual insert media window opening I got one the same size but with the message that the site is temporarily down for maintenance.

  I had to close the window and try about 3 times before it finally worked.

  Yeah LOL.

  Hey just tried to reply to your post. Yup get you some of this........

  We'll be right back?  When do you think that might be?

  

  Try to load game client....... yup get this.... can't even play nothing now.  LOL Had a few ready gos needed to play. I guess WGT will be refunding my credits back. Can't play..... give me my credits back.

  Yup I got pretty pi$$ed getting the "be right back" screen so gave up trying. Game play screen was not to bad but did freeze at the top of the swing a couple of times, but multi-player games just crashed each time.

  This seems to occur predominantly on weekends (a few times lately) so would point to a problem with the server, or the server is not capable of handling the traffic.

  Makes me wonder if the WGT "server" is actually an old PC in Chad's garage.

  Other than my one hole a night I have not played much lately. Last time I tried the best of 5 I gave up after 4 holes, was falling asleep in the middle of the day. Reverse view took 2-3 minutes to load. Dumped the game, went to E-Bay to check a few things, zip zip zip, no delays what so ever. Just saying. I was thinking of a few AS games tonight for something to do. After reading the above I may need to change my mind.

  hey guys

  I been in contact with our IT & QA department and it seems that actual game is not the issue, but our host may have had some issues... It's unclear what they are as it could be their routing or DDoS attack or several other things, so hopefully they it will resolve itself.

  Soooooooooooooooooo SLOW!!  :)

  Can I get a XP Boost or something to make up for the valuable weekend time that I have lost?  I'm trying to level up here!

  It's always slow, but this slowness is unnacceptable.  Maybe use this "downtime" to speed up the normal service, as well.

  Thanks

  ===============================

  My speed test results for comparison:  

  ping 24ms

  download speed 79mbps

  upload speed 32mbps

  Been going thru this thread for about an hour now start to finish, 10-15 seconds to load up pages,then i get a downtime for maintenance

  too funny

  I used to love this game,the challenge of playing new people- courses,skins used to be a gr8 laugh.I now play mostly rg's due to bad meter vem or the awful loading or forced game closures from wgt end.

  Most my games a while back was with my friends in alt on wgtls or mp for a few credits for fun,i rarely trust what my games going to be like now and don't like letting people down,hence i play by myself most the time

  Realistically i'm still here to be a nuisence and try beat the cheats and especially multi's

   

  I do give some credit to WGTicon,about 6 weeks ago i sent him a pm of a few guys i thought was multi accounter's doing the same rg's each day,since then iv'e not seen them in comps  and as far as i know they are removed

  ROCKY

  40 today oh my i feel old

  4/25 ....Yancy posted .

  "    My findings very well may change the way we look at WGT and Aliens . "

  Yancy has been telling us about Things and whatnots with  this game for some time now.

  Think about it .

  This is sorta interesting and frustrating as hell at the same time. The past few days I've played most, if not all, single person rounds and the only lag has been right after I hit a shot, the game will freeze with avatar in follow-thru, for anywhere from 10-45 seconds, then carry on with the shot as normal.

  But, trying to get a page here to load, or just get to the site, has taken the longest for me, and I can zip around the web just like everyone else is saying, except for on WGT.
