    My average score over the last couple of days has settled on 70.  I have played several rounds and exited and entered the program, but it is still stuck at 70.  Thought this may be a bug and should be posted.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Bob... Here are your last 14 ranked rounds:

                    

    WGT takes the average of your last 14 rounds (with a bit more weight to the last 3) to give you your ranking... Your last 76 knocked off a 37.   And from this list, (without crunching all the numbers), I would say that 70 is about right.

    Although you may be right and there may be an issue worth looking into... it's just not likely.

    Peace.

    The thing that caught my eye is that the 70showed up over night after I had played and the screen updated.  Then it stayed at 70 when I shot that horrible 76.  Before it would change a few hundredeths after playing stroke play.  I am not complaining about my average, just informing that it hasn't changed in a couple of rounds.  You are correct in that it should be around 70, not not dead on 70.  I will play another round and see what it does.  Thanks for the reply.

    If you post a score that isn't the top 10 out of your last 14 scores, then it wont be calculated towards your average. Your average may, however go up because you lose one of your better rounds (out of the last 14).

    For some reason I find that hard to explain.

    I played another round last night and it DID CHANGE so it must have been coincidence.  Sorry for the false alarm.

    It's no problem Bob, at least you got to learn about averages, it's pretty complicating for a lot of members to understand.
