    Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

    I have a few bones to pick with WGT:

    Graphics

    These new Flashy, blinding graphic alerts between every shot is annoying to say the least. At it’s worse, some people who suffer from epilepsy may actually suffer seizures from them, and stop playing (or sue you). I’ve known several people through the years that have a problem with epilepsy and brilliant flashing lights, and dropped like a quivering stone. Can’t you make that an option instead of everyday annoyances?

    Clashes

    Why is the final score on clashes predicated on the number of times members of any given Club plays is more important than the quality of the members play and their individual score? Some people play 5-10 times during a 4 hour period and amass a load of “credits” for their score for the clash, but may not in fact play very well overall.  Why not allow every member of any club in every clash post one, and ONLY one, score and let the best team win? Why is it a better for a club that can “buy” credits to play more often during a clash more important than the results of open competition? Buying and winning doesn’t seem to me to be fair and open competition.  It’s just money for you guys (WGT and TOP Golf). But it diminishes the sport and competitiveness of the whole idea.

    We recently played a clash on the second day that had a 3-0 record. We were 5-0. Doesn’t the clash start for all clubs at the same time? How could they be short two games and still be ranked in the top ten?

    Just my two Lincolns worth, but there it is.

    Your own answer to your second subject:

    Bluehawk3:

    That's the purpose of the company and of the game: Revenue!

    In particular, the whole CC points / levels / clashes / prizes business has nothing else in mind. Before, 500 cr were enough to create a 250 members CC - look out what is needed now!

    The Golden Calf is but the pinnacle of a hype meant to push the consumption of balls and passes and boosts. As a sad fact, it is successful: Mankind obviously can't do without competiton, and those who don't find their spots on the leaderboards of fake $$ on page one seek contention in useless races of points and levels with prizes like those ridiculous pizza boxes, most leaderboards being hidden or even fugacious, while suffering from bad maintenance.

    Nevertheless, players and owners think that they are successful though they are only fish, providing revenue.
