  So Rosey....what would have happened if once you were at 80%,  you had 4 people disconnect (and you did not won't to spend 30 min's waiting) or some other issue, (like your child falling off a wall or your wife/husband freaking out, your boss calling a meeting..etc.....) and you were now down to 68%.  According to your post you have labeled yourself as a quitter!  And by the way, there is no way, according to WGT that you went from 80%  back up to 97% in just a few games.  Sorry but let's be real.

  Play some rounds with the uneven lies and really watch your tee shots roll and kick. When you hit you're next shot the ball is realistically represented by the lie of the ground.

  The Uneven Lies are The Bright Side!    ;-)

  O.K. Mate. I will do. Anything for a bit of a laugh, on the Bright Side ! I wasn't joking though.... I've honestly never tried it before.

  Sorry to kind of hijack the thread, but I have a question? What is the percentage thing you are all talking about? I've hardly played since the spring, and I am totally lost.

  See the bottom of the news of 08-28, then search the forum for "completion", "disconnection" etc.

  No prob Iva.  It came with an upgrade on mid august 2012.  Since then, every time you engage any MULTIPLAYER game, your personal percentage of "reliability on finishing games" (on being or not a quitter) is shown publicly.  Peace among the community has been the most affected, because now WE ALL FEAR to go down losing our % = reputation.  Some are true quitters but some end up punished with the drop of the % due to technical failures.  And here is where you see how the community gets fragmented because of a feature that sadly has served mostly for division, since some players are simply closing their rings among players with high numbers %.  Anyway, that's how humans interact with totalitarism ... LOL

  OK, thank you both. Sounds to me like everyone should just step back, take a breath, and let it play out a bit. After years of literally thousands of "quitter" posts, WGT is trying to do something about it. As in life, you can never please everyone AND changes often require fine tuning. It took WGT this long to do something, it is probably safe to assume this will need some time also.

  If you guys want a game, I won't quit...and unless the stars all align just right, you'll probably win, too.

  Thanks again for the responses...the thread is back to regularly scheduled programming...
