  About 10 times in the last 2 days my games have shut down with a pop-up saying "WGT temporarily down for Maintenance"!

  Hey WGT, what's going on?

  I saw it a couple of times recently. I just chalked it up as a "Clash" thing.

  LOL

  Not sure if it's a clash thing or a firefox thing. Ive seen it twice while using Firefox but no other browsers

  ^^. WGT can't connect, severs are busy, frost warning all in 15 seconds during AS game, not to mention those clash inspired wtf shots that rain down.  LOL

  Jim, I just brought up those messages and wacky shots to our club a few minutes ago because I have had several of them just today. And I also received the "Closed due to Frost" message this morning too!!

  And I've been booted twice since this morning. I'm using IE 11 for my browser. Me thinks their servers are at full capacity and need to be upgraded. But that would require the site to be shutdown, which we all know isn't going to happen because of loss of revenue. Just my 2 cents worth.

  I have a theory on this that I don't know is even close to being right but I think whenever there's a clash going on, something gets switched, like to a server that has the clash on it. And along with that clash is a buggy version of the game.

  The WTF shots and connection problems are just too consistent with when clashes are on. It's to the point where I don't play important matches or in important tournaments when there's a clash going on.

  I sent customer service a not about it. They are aware and working on it... standard answer.

  When in an alt shot 1 in England, 1 in Ohio, 1 in OR and 1 in Texas get the same message that our internet is down lol. The only thing we have in common is wgt servers, nuff said
