  Calling anyone anything because its annoying does not allow that same person giving out names a free pass when they do something annoying to another.

  Taken from the humble book of confusious snake piss.

  Lobsterboy:

  making us wait in the lobby for 5 minuets to restart the game on the 9th and saving himself 50 credits . . . unreal

  WHAT? I don't really play credit games, but surely if he quits for what ever reason, the player has done his dosh?

  If not that needs urgent rectification by WGT.

  Totally agree buddy . . . WGT would just say they couldn't be sure if he quit or lost his connection so wouldn't make him pay . . . I can tell you for sure he quit.

  I would say if you enter into a challenge match you should pay no matter what.

  If your connection is dodgy . . . don't play them . .

  100% agree, should be part of the conditions. Would like Icons take on this one.

  I had no idea this was the case and by WGT adopting this stance just encourages the quitters.

  Edit - just looked at the T&C for challenges - I could not see anything about non-completion, only the WGT Fee is non-refundable. Does this mean the winning player misses out because of a quiter/non-completion but WGT still get their slice of the pie?

  People who quit or forfeit don't get their credits refunded, I've always got my winnings when somebody quit.

  Thanks for the clarification. In this case Lobster should contact WGT - as I said earlier, amazing if this was the case, as I fear many would quit on the last hole.
