  Hello everyone. Thank you for taking the time to join our new organization, the WGTPA (Players Association). Our goal is to bring together WGT players give them a platform to voice their concerns, ideas, support, etc of their WGT playing experience. By doing this, we can represent a large number of players to present these suggestions to the WGT management team. We do not work with or are in any way affiliated with WGT. We want to be able to work with WGT to suggest ideas for the game. If we gain a large membership, we believe WGT will have a great interest in our input. Please like and share this page with other WGT players. We are just beginning to put this association together and are looking for any volunteers who can help with membership and ideas on improving the WGTPA. Please message us with any questions and we will be working daily to grow this page and organization.

  Hi.

   I think this is a good idea, potentially , especially on the back of recent developments at WGT.
  
  What I would say is that I think it will just remain a good idea unless it gains traction from a significant number of players. And with significant numbers of players comes an awful lot of noise. ( which is also a problem WGT gets on its forums when ideas are suggested )
  If I were doing this, to keep things manageable, I think I would try get CC owners , or representatives of CC's onboard , let them form the basis of a 'committee' who can take/ share ideas with their cc's and your association. They already have the ear & trust of their members & can post / ask for ideas from their guys and bring that to the table at your players association.

  But however you decide to do this, best of luck.

  Foo

  Really what we need, is a group of High Profile Owners in Video Chat with WGT.

  This has been brought up many times by others. Events like the Clash are a great idea, but with input from the Owners Panel, I think it could have been a hit from the first

  Rome was not built in day though, and so never know.

  Give you credit for trying.  In all honesty though the CC "Event" was the last straw in any hopes I had of WGT seriously listening.  That "Event" is utter nonsense IMO, and not once do I remember any poster asking for anything remotely like that.

  What recent developments are you referring to?

  The 'Clash'.. Not just the bug infested problems. more the whole concept and 'magic' prizes tbh.
  
  Huge missed opportunity. The starting point is correct, cc vs cc has always driven great interest ( and therefore ball sales ) within WGT. This just wasn't it.. by a loooong way.
