  Hi can you please explain to me as to why in the last 1 hour, my percentage as dropped from 97% to 87%. I have not quit or dissconnected only reconnected when told to be wgt. These have ALL been down to WGT  and it is unfair that this should be happening, and this is not only to me but probably 100s of other players

  Don't worry Rody, yours must be the number 50k-and-something complaint on this very topic.  In fact, I truly love WGT but this is the only thing I dislike.  It's unfair, it's application is not adequate, it does not reflect truth about one's behavior, and we all know already how vulnerable Flash Player is on continuity, because the slightest micro interruption prevents the game from finishing, punishing everyone with nonsense drop of %.  And to that, one must add the fact that some players also quit games, and those quits trigger game errors too.  So, until WGT really does something about it, we are just left with crossing our fingers for a good connectivity ... this very time ...

  Well said, Q. Your points are valid, and they are things that WGT needs to recognize. I have mentioned in a couple of threads that we have been analyzing this feature since it's release, and that we have some changes on the way :)

  I can't divulge much more information than that, but we plan on going in to more detail in the upcoming Chat with MisterWGT next Friday. See you there!

   

  Stay classy,

  Thank you Mr. Pizza Sir !  As always you're a true gentleman.  I think that this has been my only real problem with WGT.  In fact, I never complained about anything before, neither for the disconnections, but since the % was tossed as a reputation indicator we started feeling really affected by technical problems, since our own reputation is at stake now. Sadly, that has served for confrontation, name callings and insults on profile walls, due to the punishment we all receive, specially when someone else quits a game ... "and such" ... (as YancyCan would say ...ha ha) ... Looking forward for the Chat   ;)

  Note :  I just finished a Blitz ... all the way to the end and when I clicked on "GO TO MAIN PAGE" this message came :

  sorry to bother you but can you make it 83% just had ANOTHER WGT ERROR  your very quick at takeing off the % but very slow about rectifying things when the complaints are mostly the same
