    MrSCicero:
    I play this on a 29 inch screen, Why would I want to play it on a screen that I can barely see?

    You weren't asking about yourself, you were asking about another member's situation. You asked for an idea and I gave you one. Internet cafes (some) and libraries have regular computers for use.

    If I had a desktop with a 29 inch monitor, I'd never miss ding.

    Cross-platform play = something to do with Donkey Kong. Watch out for those barrels... ;-)

    I very seldom try to hit the ding!

    You weren't asking about yourself, you were asking about another member's situation. You asked for an idea and I gave you one. Internet cafes (some) and libraries have regular computers for use.

    I understand what you are saying and thank you for your suggestions, I was really directing this question to someone directly affiliated with WGT, Just to see if there was anything in the works as a work around or cure to the situation all together. I was merely venting my frustration about a situation that was caused when they (WGT) created an app for mobile devices, Did they not think about this while they were creating the app? Is this still not a flash based game app for mobile devices? I guess I don't understand why if a player is connected to the WGT website there is such a thing as cross platform play, Is that person using a mobile device not connected to the same server on the WGT website?

     Also in response to it not being me that has to play on a mobile device, My question to you would then be, If I was to hold a tournament and everyone did join in and it came down to me having to play him to win the tournament, How would I go about playing if I didn't have access to a mobile device? (not that I would ever want to play this on a puny screen) Who would forfeit the game, Should I be penalized because I didn't have a mobile device to play on, Or should he be penalized because he did not have access to a computer? Now lets just say this is a tournament with credit prize involved, Am I shedding some light on the situation?

     You see it might not even be me that has to play him that does not have a mobile device, But I as a Country Club owner would have no choice but to try to render the situation,Just how do I go about it without asking questions?

    No and that's where the problem is. Android doesn't use Flash.

    That's where HE is the one that would need to find a PC to play you on.  The monkey's on his back, not yours. I was a beta tester for the Android release and I'm with you-that screen is just too small for any kind of decent play.

    Android CAN use Flash. They just don't recommend it anymore. Just saying.

    Not for playing this game, which is the subject.

    Thank you for all of your information. It was very helpful!
