    everything was fine for me till Sunday afternoon then constant freezing & not being able to start a game etc. I thought the maintenance last night might be to sort this out but it hasn't as i'm still having the same problem whether it be via firefox or chrome,

    Same problems as all others.  Have "played" in 3 alt. shot matches.  On all 3 I freeze in the middle of my backswing. One shot clock ran all the way down and went to error, one immediately went to error, and one just sat there and did nothing.  Wish something would get resolved.  Seems to be quite a long post.

         I usually hate when some smarmy basterd comes on the boards here and says "I don`t have Any problems, My meter works perfectly, etc." and offers zero input to help the issues of others that Do have problems...So, I`ll try to give a coherent report of experiences with the different browsers and flash versions.

         I have the Chrome Iron browser (SR Ware Iron) set exclusively for WGT game client with Flash version 10.3.181.26...

      I noticed some problems loading the page yesterday but just closed out and re-opened `til it was good ( once or twice). No issues today...so far :-).

         After reading this post today ( I was blissfully ignorant of this yesterday :-P ) I tried my regular Chrome browser which I just use for the main site. Flash version 10.3.183.10...

      I not only had issues with coming onto WGT`s main site(here) but the game client had a Lot of loading issues also. Had to re-load or close out and re-open several times before it was normal. 

       I then tried FireFox, Flash version 10.3.181.26...

      No issues, worked same as Chrome Iron.

    YankeeJim:

    Why doesn't somebody that is having these issue just go get the CD browser? That way you can just  say I'm full of crap or be playing?

         I then got the CD browser, Flash version 10.3.181.26...

      No issues, worked as well as both Iron and FF

     

         As unscientific as this is, I`d hazard a guess that the newer version of Flash (10.3.183.10...) is a problem. It may not be THE problem or the only one, but it was the only one that gave me any loading/playing issues today.

         I haven`t tried installing the older Flash version in Chrome to see if that makes a difference and I didn`t try IE at all. Anyone running that old dinosaur deserves what they get, ;-P. 

       I haven`t tried any multi-player rounds yet today but, that has had problems with loading and freezing for over a year, lmao...not a good testing point at all.
