  Now WGT has finally taken intensive action in the issue (cf. "Free Rental" thread) - good maintenance action IMHO!

  Hoping that the casual discons will diminish considerably, I propose to make a new start with the spoilt %% recording:

  Reset all Completion records when the situation is back to normal. Give the poor guys and gals a chance who tumbled into bad reputation without their own liability!

  Give ev1 a chance of a "green" restart!

  Granted many disconnects are site problems but also our fault...I believe they should do away with the WD from tourneys and restarts..You start you play till the end our sit till tourney is over..This would stop allot of the sandbagging of trying to keep a pretty average and staying in a lower tier with great clubs..Folks are already using many different aids to play the game so lets play all till the end..I have never started a round and just walked off and stated over because i dont like my score...When tourneys are unlimited play it should be play till the end and then start over....How about making the game fair to those that play fair...Just my thoughts after 4500 rounds and no WD"s... 

    To many times i see Wgt  WD me for no reason..I say BS..If you get knocked off its iether saved automatic or you WD..WGT does not WD  you unless you have timed out of the length of tourney..But time is another issue..lol...Should have a shot clock on all matches,but practice rounds...

  I understand your point, but seriously??  Then, if you have an emergency you need to leave for...wife in hospital, fire call, etc...then either a) you make them all wait  while you finish your round, or, perhaps worse, b) disconnect & make your playing partners sit 10 minutes while you time out.   Uh, no.

    Yea seriously,if your in a alt shot game you would forfeit,not withdraw.and it does not effect avg or tier rank any how.and if your out past the time round ends..But in normal round play ,weekly tourneys ,club tourneys you start you finish..If your in multi non alt shot round the others continue on and you will finish when you return the same as you would if playing alone..

  AFAIK this is not multiplayer rounds and thus not affecting the completion %%.

  Nor do A/S...
