  I enjoyed the "chat with Mister WGT" very much. One question I would like to ask is there any plans to replace the use of Adobe Flashplayer? I understand that it does not work on Apple machines at all and it will eventually be a thing of the past. It is a critical part, but it is the cause of most players problems. Next I like to see the forums format get changed so that when you log on to them that some older posts do not show up at the beginning that has a new reply added. There needs to be a closed thread format and after a period moved to an archive area. Need to notify everyone the details on promotions such as the one of free rentals this weekend with the details, such as day and time of the rental period.

  hi

  1. I do not know if it's even possible since everything is game is flash based. 

  2. I would love new forum software too, but so far I have not heard anything.

  3. each promo is target differently, so emails are likely still the best way to do so. I can't speak on it further, since marketing handles that.

  I thought there was a rumor about going to HTML5. I'm not sure if WGT has thought of this or not, but maybe it's something to look at.

  I believe currently HTML5 is slated to be the standard in 2014, but Facebook gave it a go and found a lot of problems, so sounds like some more development is needed. I wouldn't hold your breath on WGT going HTML5 any time soon.

  I never received an email on the free rental! I get emails for credits earned and tourneys i have entered and reminders to play before they end. I have never received an email stating anything on promotions,
