  Hello Fellas.

  I know that this is a topic already discussed and treated several times, but as for the new product releases, I still wonder if it is possible to have a schedule downtime for the days when the site will be freeze; I know that this is happen only for a couple of hours but spite of ourselves we do not all have the same time zone and it would be right to give this information at least with a good time, even though in reality it would be enough notice with 24/48hours. 

  It's not a product suggestion just a little advice, nothing else.

  Cheers,
  David.

  hi

  i hear you, but i only know for sure, within 10 minutes before I post... I know the days ahead that it's coming but for sure... just before I make an announcement.

  for example... I know there is one coming tonight (about 1 hr, technical maintenance, not product update), but until I know for sure, I can't announce it..

  too often these get moved to later or cancelled,  so I have to be sure

  Icon I understand what you mean.
  I hope that in the future WGT will be able to have something pre-established.

  Thank you again.

  I'd appreciate news of possible downtimes. Then I could make sure that I was up early enough to get club stuff done before work.

  Even for me too Courteney, that's way I opened this thread.

  The difference of the time zones make europeans out of the game for all the morning hours during long downtimes and for people which got time like me to play and organize games restricted to morning and late evening would be really appreciated.

  Hope something can be done, it would be good even a 12 hours in advance.

  Cheers,
  David.

  Morning, I received a notice last night of a maintenance shutdown in 15 minutes. No problem, the tournament I was in for 18 holes merely was stopped and saved until I returned this morning to finish. Don't know what maintenance was done but I've noticed this morning something is amiss. I choose the amount I want to hit the ball and in what direction along with any b.s. or f.s. if any however it's not accomplished on your end consistently. Sometimes I get what I've tried to accomplish but many times you have a different idea of what I should have. I either end up hitting way to the right or way to the left and for a much bigger hit or sometimes the yellow line goes completely off and it's the same as a practice swing. Kindly return to the more accurate program you had prior to your maintenance shutdown last night. Thanks for listening.
