  I've just had the pleasure of having 2 days free of meter spikes which is fantastic, but me scores have been terrible...lol. 

  I use Chrome and from advise from a friend created a shortcut of the game to my desktop.The shortcut has no browser tools, like tool bars etc, just the main wgt page. What I did was when I hit the 'PLAY NOW' the game screen starts...then I close the main WGT screen and the only thing I have running is the the games screen.

  I've had no meter spikes for 2 days now and it's just great..and apart from the shocking scores, enjoying playing the game once again....how long it lasts...don't know....lol.

  Mantis,

  I've never really had any problems with the meter...maybe one stutter every 4 or 5 games.  I also close down the main screen when I decide to play.  I don't know if that has something to do with it or not, I'm not what you would call a "computer person".  Good luck on the golfing.

  Roger discovered one of the most basic fixes for a lot of meter problems-don't have multiple browsers open when you play. When you get an invite accept it and while it's loading or waiting just close the main window and any others you might have open. Longwedge is proof.  :-)
