  Cards should be visible - easiest format is OK.  Protocols over card handling aside everything is transparent IRL, but here a secret.

  the technology to share the scorecard is already being used on the IOS version of WGT Mobile.Press the share card button and it gives you the option to share the card via text message  e-mail or Facebook.There are a few more options icluding save card. It has been on mobile for a few months now maybe soon it will be on the web

  If any, the display should be automatic from the leaderboard, e.g. by a click on the score no.

  This could work, even if it's only the hole scores like 4 3 3 4 5 3 4 2 4.

  I like this and I think it can work

  The scorecards must go somewhere within the dark chambers of Wgt. Just tag the card to the Leaderboard, with that little click here button.

  Two posts above, BTB described the existing! basic programming  - if the scores can be transferred to the social networks for bragging rights, they should also be available for their leaderboards.

  BUMP,  more opinions needed.

  I proposed this tiny requirement to Wgt thru CS. They asked me to post it here in the forum to gather players thoughts. Please chime in with your views.

  When special questions arise here, you will be referred back - the Wanninger principle (known from the German comedian Karl Valentin for "run from pillar to post").

  Keep in mind that the forum posters are only a minority of the players. No matter of our opinions, the company will do what they like.  In case of any doubt, they will follow the silent majority with their multitude of opinion, channelled to their offices by any invisible means.

  Honestly, the best way to promote a change is to avoid "requirement" and put "revenue!" in the foregorund.

  Tongue-in-cheek greetz ;)

  LOL, guess I have to come up with a way wgt can make more money off of this change then. Maybe they can charge 37c per card for score verification, shhhhhh   hope they didn't hear that.

  Bingo - this is the way SUCCESS spells! You're leaning quickly, Willy!

  Allow me to pick up that thought:
  Take 37 cr from the top 20 (this is what my greedy thick fingers typed when I thought "10") for scorecard verification display (two weeks), otherways they are deleted from the leaderboard. Double the sco^Wprice for multi-round tournaments.

  The scorecard countback works fine ... it's one of the things here that does work right.

  Hey Don, how do you know they work correctly each & every time? Very few things in wgt work consistently. If you know how to check to make sure the countback is right, please share how.
