  The game play is actually miles better on the mobile app and thats never been that great.

  Now you know the real reason the PC version is in the toilet.  Believe the resources are going there, not here.

  Been sayin' that since Jan. It's where 99.9% of WGT's time, effort, and money is going.

  The game plays flawlessly on a tablet/ipad, and it'll be nice to pass time on, but so is that game where you smash candy. 

  Adding 2 useless tiers (only way to make them not useless, is to make all premium tourneys tier specific - no "open to all tier' tourneys) and changing the name of 2 balls caused the game's graphics and physics to fall behind that of Pong.

  This game is not 100% unplayable, but it's deteriorating rapidly. And every month's "Hi all, we will have downgrade tonight beginning @ 10:00pm PST" just speeds up that deterioration. 

  To change the name of two balls, and add 2 new tiers could probably have been done w/o ever closing down the site.

  Good point!!  But everybody that has played for a long time would be back to zero days of their streaks. The XP's helps your CC get to a higher level.  Besides, not even Napalm would get rid  of the bugs.  JMHO.

   

  Days played is no factor! You wanna play a wrecked game as long as you get better xp?

   

  XP points mean jack *** after a CC reaches the level where they get free shot/putter pal for it's members. And until they sort out the zoom in problem. WGT will not get another penny from me.

  Why don't wgt announce that they are going to close the site for a month and then fix all these bugs and do some testing and then come back all fresh with a decent product.

  Quite frankly, at the moment this place is an absolute shambles!

  +1 (or +100).

  I'm all for this.  Hell, shut it down for 2 or 3 months if necessary.  Just fix it already.
