SlickHunter: What I don’t like is when they forfeit, sometimes it locks up the game,
I have never seen this to be the case... it is those individuals who intentionally do not go through the couple clicks to actually forfeit and try to exit or stall the game by not actually forfeiting that cause all the problems.
I can at least respect the player that is considerate enough to forfeit even though sometimes it is annoying when they wait for me to tap in a short putt to do so... if you are going to forfeit anyway why make me putt?
Anyway... yes, it is an ongoing problem... some abuse it far more than others and then there are those who are trying to lock the game up...
If I am on a timer for sponsor apparel... I have graciously forfeited myself... no apologies there... I would rather try to get in as many games as I can and the single apparel point earned in a loss is hardly comparable for the apparel points earned with a win.
As many have pointed out, being on a sponsor apparel timer can and does impact the decisions of some to forfeit...
That said, I think most people are addressing the frustrations of those who are being more deceitful or nefarious in their attempts by simply closing out or exiting the game which can lock it up causing the winner to lose.
I have never noticed receiving coins that my opponent deserved to win in a match I intentionally forfeited myself in order to save time on my sponsor session. But that is just me... if I end a game early to save a little time, I will at least be courteous enough to forfeit properly so as not to deny my deserving opponent of a win.
