WGT is pretty much a zero sum game.
Yes, I believe there is something called VEM and it's "turned on" because I can feel its presence. Now the thing is VEM works not only against you but also FOR you.
When it works for you and results you shooting some great scores, you won't come out here in the forum and complain "Oh, this game is so inconsistent that it's not even funny! No matter how bad I hit a shot, it sticks to the pin. It's pathetic!". LOL
So once again, it's a zero sum game at the end of the day IMHO.
