  Not sure if this has been mentioned before but.

  If  completion ratings green,yellow,orange...

  Where implemented in search for games so only your, color completion comes up in search findings,this would deter alot of quit games  and encourage people to complete rounds.

  If does not deter people from quitting they can quit games with like minded people and will make play alot more enjoyable for those who chose to finish rounds.

  Also a idea for search results,would like to a  tier and below option  aswell as a tier and above which is currently present.

  Looking at the whole picture,sometimes friends not around to play and why not be sociable?

  True enough indeed, but you run the risk of somebody available from the 'lobby' joining your game as is the case twice last week, 2nd & 5th holes two bad shots, two quitters, two wasted rounds.

  Thats why i suggested this to deter such issues if people cant find a round because they quit to much maybe they will think about finishing rounds to get there reputation up.

  I play alot of random games ive seen it all,4 is 2 finishes or even 1 many of times!!

  The objection is 2 get people motivated to finish rounds,as i see it this idea cant be a loss for wgt as people will play through and will put a smile on many players faces.

  Top advice and sometimes is a good reason to join a club in your time zone or when those members are playing when you do.

  OR you can use the line I used to use before getting chastised from management. It was

  "Quit and I will put a bomb under your house"

  Then they would complain lol. But seriously how stupid are they........I didn't know where they lived! :)

  Edit - we played the other day.....I hope I  didn't  quit!!!!

  Hence the idea is good for every party
