Re: Multi choice of time clock during multi player games

  WGT it seems to me that quite a few players are upset with the new time limit during the multi player rounds. Why not allow the Host of the match determine the time clock per play either 30 seconds,60 seconds, or 90 seconds.  Just as he selects  the type of game, the course, the number of holes, he should have the ability to choose how much chatter that will be allowed between shots. Just a thought

  Hi SidersBest, the match creator does have a choice to change the shot clock when setting up the match. When you set up a game it's right above the "CREATE GAME" box along with settings like Trugolf Courses, Reputation, and Player Rank.

  Delay of game: first time a warning and gone on the second or third?

  WGTChampion, the question is "Why was it changed". Most seem to like the long time used 90 second default that you changed. Why?

  Why am I not surprised that this question didn't get an answer. Just maybe they might be embarrassed by the answer they have to give.

  60 secs perfect in most' opinions I play..

  90 secs can be too long.. IF, 3 in group driving in 15 - 20 secs and 4th taking 70 secs per drive..yawn

  Now, pick a course, pick a timer and pick like minded ppl...everyone's a winner !

  In my experience most people tend to stick to the default setting, whether it be 90 seconds or 60 seconds. I have never seen or heard anything to suggest people 'prefer' the 90 second timer beyond that. Certainly some people get caught out by a shorter timer if they aren't used to it but for my part I find few things as tedious on WGT as sitting and waiting...and waiting...while someone takes 85 seconds for a drive, or a 6 foot level putt.

  Thanks for the reply but it didn't answer the question. The question was to WGTChampion asking why they changed it. I appreciate your opinion but I hoped to get an answer from them.
